IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Sunny skies in midafternoon, chance of rain increases after eight. Jake on the hill, opposing lefty Joey Lucchesi (a switch from Eric Lauer, who will go Tuesday) not to mention all the forces working against his immense talents. We assume we have no Cespedes still, but who knows with this bunch of bananaheads?

Rosario SS Cabrera 2B Flores 1B Bautista RF Conforto LF Mesoraco C Nimmo CF Reyes 3B deGrom P Rosario's up, Nimmo is down, a designated hitter is nowhere to be found.

It's not Jose's fault. But somehow he has gone from being a beloved home-grown Met, to the symbol of how fucked up the decision making process is in the Mets organization. It's just shocking. Meanwhile Dom Smith and Jeff McNeil waste away in AAA.

There's ZERO logic to Flores 1B/Reyes 3B over Flores-McNeil 3B/Smith 1B. Zero.

My guess is they're clinging to the idea that if Reyes gets hot for a few weeks they could swing him for _something_. and I think they're mad at Smith for only walking once in like a month. so maybe like..0.5% logic? I guess they played Smith in the outfield in Vegas last night. Getting some instruction hopefully, not that there's any room for him out there in the majors anyway..

If he hits, there's plenty of room for him somewhere.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 12:25 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Don Hahn woulda had that drive.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 12:30 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

That conceding-the-stolen-base-with-a-runner-on-third thing is so Babe Ruth League.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 12:43 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Swinging at the first pitch, Jake. That was silly.

cooby Jul 24 2018 12:44 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Don Hahn. What a fond memory

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 12:46 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Bad News Bears action happening.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 12:47 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Oh, screw the call to the replay room.

Frayed Knot Jul 24 2018 12:55 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Amazing how this team manages to synch-up the pitcher mistakes with fielder errors so as to create opposition runs. Spread those outs and it would still be a shutout, but we can't seem to operate that way.

Frayed Knot Jul 24 2018 01:06 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Not only has this game gone to the dogs, but it's ground to a halt as well. One hour for the first four innings, now closing in on an hour trying to get thru the next two. Bases loaded for Reyes, a guy voted in his HS yearbook as the boy most likely to pop up.

Fman99 Jul 24 2018 01:07 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

This would be a good time for Reyes to show up.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 01:08 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

A swinging bunt works. Fortunately they got him chasing up on the first pitch and didn't pitch him up again.

Frayed Knot Jul 24 2018 01:08 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Ooooh, a Yanqui run!!

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 01:29 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

This reminds of the deep end of Anthony Young's losing streak, when the Mets were determined to pitch him deep into every game, not wanting to take him out while he was on the hook.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 01:38 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Fuck to the yes. Now let's get this game back.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 01:41 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

That uncaught pop-up brought to you by the Go Ahead and Bunt Society.

HahnSolo Jul 24 2018 01:47 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

I’m with Edgy. Down 1, leading off against that shift how the hell do you not at least try to lay a bunt down?

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 01:56 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Tyler Yates' brother on for the save.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 02:02 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

The Pads have out-fundied the Mets all night and Hosmer pulls an it-gets-by-Buckner. Gots to take advantage.

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 02:02 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

And Kelly sucker bunts it.

d'Kong76 Jul 24 2018 02:02 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

It gets by Hosmer!!

HahnSolo Jul 24 2018 02:03 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

I mean, if Ty Kelly can’t bunt, what’s he doing here?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 24 2018 02:06 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

yeah that was disappointing

HahnSolo Jul 24 2018 02:06 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Thanks to Mickeys curious lineup we get an all-too-predictable whiff from Rosario instead of some Nimmo magic.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 24 2018 02:08 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

put in the book of stupidity

Edgy MD Jul 24 2018 02:08 AM Re: IGT 7/23/2018: SDP@NYM -- Yes, We Have Some deGrom

Plurk.

Need to shake the etch a sketch, have someone else work the knobs.
