We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

Frayed Knot Jul 25 2018 11:13 AM

One of [u:2p126jbr]TEN[/u:2p126jbr] day games in MLB today, it'll be a high noon start in Queens (well, 12:10 if you want to be an asshole about it) as the Mets will see their third straight SDP lefty when Corey Oswalt faces Clayton Richards Mets faced Richards [7-9; 4.82] back in April and hung an 'L' on him [3 runs over 6.2] as he and the Padres got deGrommed that night 5-1. More recently he's coming off a 7-runs/3-IP thumping by Philly in SD's first game after the ASB

I'm guessing that Asdrubal will get the day off so let's get McNeil in the lineup and in front of the campers!

sharpie Jul 25 2018 01:24 PM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

Probably not going to use McNeil against lefties right away.

bmfc1 Jul 25 2018 01:53 PM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

No McNeil, as sharpie suggested. Amed Rosario – SS Asdrúbal Cabrera – 2B Wilmer Flores – 1B José Bautista – RF Michael Conforto – LF Kevin Plawecki – C Brandon Nimmo – CF José Reyes – 3B Corey Oswalt – RHP

Gah! Will no one rid me of this meddlesome Reyes?

Rain over, game on.

I thought this dude's name was Clayton "Ree-shard". Did I make that up?

A baserunner, a baserunner!! Not a hit yet, mind you, but a real live baserunner.

And for a second day in a row deGrom is saying; "Really guys. Now?" "You can't score at all for me and now you put together a four-run/two-out rally and quite possibly steal a 'W' for Corey Freaking Oswalt?"

If this Phil Maton guy now pitching for the Pads were to become a lights-out closer he could be nicknamed 'Auto' Maton

Good time for Swarzak to turn the corner. I mean, not as good as six weeks ago, but among remaining options.

41Forever Jul 25 2018 07:06 PM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

BOOKS! Series win!!

d'Kong76 Jul 25 2018 07:06 PM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

Seems like only 17 series ago that the Mets won one.

Edgy MD Jul 25 2018 07:20 PM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

A consecutive win, a series win, and Swarzak's greatest moment. Oh, yeah, they also pass San Diego in the league-wide standings. Hold me.

Four and a half hour drive down, family in tow. Sat with Metfairy, who is doing well but has said that she's more or less done with the CPF, sad to say. Nice win, and maybe most importantly, a nice window of dry weather, as we faced many storms headed in both directions. Five and a half hour drive home. Long ass time to be behind the wheel. Fwife's first visit to the Citi. She loved it. Great day.

Fman99 Jul 26 2018 03:59 AM Re: We got ourselves a nooner! -- IGT 7/25/18

Oh yeah, also, Fwife and I featured on the "Kiss Cam" between innings.
