IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Wheeler VS Bundy. That's Dylan Bundy. But it could be Al Bundy, Ted Bundy or Irving Bundy, the way the Mets are hitting. Doesn't matter. Every day is D-Day (for defeat) lately. Later

Centerfield Jun 06 2018 01:48 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

I predict the Mets will score 14 runs today.

If it's King Kong Bundy, it might at least be entertaining.

You know, if Gonzalez is going to bat lower in the lineup than Plawecki, I think you just let him go and try Dom Smith no? I mean, Dom isn't exactly lighting up LV, but you figure Dom can give you at least a .700+ OPS.

Well good luck today Mets!

When you’re reading the game cast and see “grounded out to catcher” two Mets at bats in a row

Well I suppose that’s progress...

cooby Jun 06 2018 05:40 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Through two innings, the Mets have no hits, Orioles have two hits, and there is no score

cooby Jun 06 2018 05:52 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

On a positive note, wheeler has four strikeouts

Centerfield Jun 06 2018 05:54 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

I guess we are scoring all 14 runs in the last 6 innings.

d'Kong76 Jun 06 2018 05:56 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Cy Bundy is cruisin' through three.

Centerfield Jun 06 2018 06:29 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

The good news is that Wheeler has kept them scoreless. If he keeps it up, it will be back to back good starts for Wheeler. He had been doing the good start, bad start thing his last many turns. For those watching, is he using a splitter?

Benjamin Grimm Jun 06 2018 06:30 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

His pitch count looks very reasonable.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 06 2018 06:32 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

I think Wheels still has potential, and Matz hasn't looked as bad as I feared he might. Geez that's 4 good starters and we couldn't count on winning 2 in a row for 2 months now

Gameday classifies 4 pitches as splitters, but I believe it's pretty spotty with pitch identification.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 06:50 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Stop swinging! Just sort of ... lean into pitches.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 06:52 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Smoly Smit! Two baserunners!

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 06:55 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Three! THREE! Bases loaded and two out for Rosario! BUNT! LEAN INTO ONE!

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 06:56 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Or maybe go down on three pitches!

This team is special.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 07:02 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Getting a lot of money starts from our rotation these days.

bmfc1 Jun 06 2018 07:03 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

A stellar 5 minutes for Rosario. Other teams call up young players and they are immediate stars. The Mets "future stars" are a 1B who the GM ridicules all off-season and is still in the minors (behind a player who was released twice last off-season) and a SS who can't hit, can't stop swinging, can't steal a base and is only a above-average fielder. Way to go Sandy!

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 07:15 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

The GM did not ridicule Dominic Smith all off-season.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2018 07:18 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

OK, fine, bunting doesn't work for you either.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 06 2018 07:21 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

Presumably by getting ABs in the minors he is, actually. I'm blaming it all on Conforto. Man does he suck balls this year

Torres are instant stars (even Soto on WSH has been more impressive) and Smith is not a major leaguer at the moment (and there is no indication that he will be any time soon). I wish that I had your optimism.

bmfc1 Jun 06 2018 07:38 PM Re: IGT June 6 Orioles at Mets D-Day Game

The good news is that Wheeler was impressive and Bruce reached the warning track.

I really tried to let it go and edited my comments, including the one with bad words, because we're all upset about our team but I will say, and only because of what you said, that what today's game was to us, you are to the CPF.

They didn't look any better at the scene of the crime. Bruce did give us the briefest of breath-holding nanoseconds in the ninth, but obviously to no avail. Kids on hand for Weather Education Day didn't seem to mind. At least Reyes didn't get picked off.

Guess my IGT-ing didn't work out to well, eh? It will now go on hiatus. Thank you for your applause. (Trying to find some humor in this very suckable slide) Later

Listened on XM at work. Usually my success in streaming the games on XM at work is mixed. I kind of wished I had had less success pulling in today's broadcast.
