Pitch around Freddy F'n Freeman. Later

Obviously a huge series, start something good here....

Ceetar Jun 11 2018 01:44 PM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

It'll be Wheeler. They're rearranging the rotation. No word on if that's pushing Vargas back to game 3 or 5 of this road trip.

Ashie62 Jun 11 2018 11:09 PM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Vargas being skipped on Wednesday

Ty Kelly riding the bench in the newly issued No. 66. That's the number I wear on all my softball jerseys.

That's two weird, high numbers for Ty, after rocking 55 the first time around. If he sticks and gets a more traditional infielder's number, he might start moving toward McKnightville. Also, I think he's only the second Route 66-er after Josh Edgin. I like fun organ selections, but "Dominic(k) the Donkey" is (a) a Christmas song, and (b) a really annoying song. There's one Lou Monte song that should be played in ballparks. Let's not get crazy.

Ty also spent a spell in 56 after we reacquired Kelly Johnson, and is a good possibility to take 11 after Bautista dies. plus hes got a decent chance to be released and reacquired and find his number reissued.

Sit down, Freddy! Wait a minute ... Wheeler has 99?!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 12 2018 11:59 PM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

yeah that was a great encounter. Freddie is terrifying.

Edgy MD Jun 13 2018 12:09 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

And check it out, Bruce isn't outfielding like a sucker.

Edgy MD Jun 13 2018 12:25 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Mets going down on the slider over and over.

Edgy MD Jun 13 2018 12:33 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

And now ball after ball falls in front of Conforto, where Lagares would be pocketing them. PLAY NIMMO IN CENTER!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 13 2018 12:34 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

o those leadoff walks

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 13 2018 12:35 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

125 DP!

Edgy MD Jun 13 2018 12:35 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Outstanding. Never saw the Mets turn a 1-2-5, and now I've seen it twice this season.

41Forever Jun 13 2018 12:37 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

That's about the best case scenario with that DP!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 13 2018 12:42 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

wheels got dunked to death that inning but it was really all about the leadoff walk. that and Conforto sticking his entire head up his ass

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jun 13 2018 12:49 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

good turn at bat for Smitty. Let's go Rosie

The Bruce Juice is loose

Rockin' Doc Jun 13 2018 01:11 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Bases loaded for Bruce and surprise he comes through with a ground rule double. Mets lead 2-1.

41Forever Jun 13 2018 01:12 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jun 13 2018 01:14 AM

You do not deny Nimmo! Bases full with one out. Get me a run or two! Sweet! My MLB At Bat video must be a batter behind real time. Bruce delivers!!

It's ABSOLUTELY a rule and is SHOULD be called - but that's one you see about twice per decade and if we're going to start enforcing it NOW, I want to go back and shave about 40 OBP points of off Utley and Biggio's career. Both were great players but were allowed to get away with that on EVERY inside pitch -- and on "plays" a lot most blatant that what Nimmo just did.

Rockin' Doc Jun 13 2018 01:23 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Freddie Freeman - Mets killer. The dude can flat hit. I wish we had a first baseman like that.

Frayed Knot Jun 13 2018 01:26 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Two weird DPs tonight: the Mets going 1-2-5 and now that one nailing Bruce at 3rd. On the Bruce one, once he was going to be out he should have just fallen on him to prevent the out at 1st -- except that that kind of play might have resulted in Callaway getting tossed again

Fman99 Jun 13 2018 01:29 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Sad that the "feel good era" of June 2018 only lasted for five outs.

The Knot is back from the DL and bringing the heat!! I'm just pissed off (well, for so many reasons at this point) because Utley could stick him elbow in the way of outside pitches and I never saw him get called for it. Exactly 200 career HBP for Utley including 76 in a 3 season span. Not sure what the intentional/non ratio was but I'm betting around 50/50 And Biggio was often even less subtle than Utley. 285 for the Houston HOF'er including five seasons of leading the league with 22+ If they give us robo-ump then the HP umps could concentrate on calls other than Ball/Strike. It obviously wasn't the reason we lost tonight -- esp. since things sucked both way -- but that was a REALLY poorly called game tonight

Frayed Knot Jun 13 2018 02:58 AM Re: IGT, 6/12 NYM@ATL Oh, Atlanta

Biggio, btw, is 2nd all time in a stat where several of the top guys doubled as signers of the 'Articles of Confederation' during their off seasons. The only modern guys near Biggio are Dan Baylor who didn't have to play chicken-wing ball because he essentially stood atop of home plate, plus Ron Hunt and Jason Kendall -- neither one of which could actually hit: JK = 274 HBP to go along with 76 HRs; RH = 243/39 Utley is 8th all time.
