IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

Edgy MD Aug 13 2018 03:23 AM

A one-game series featuring Jacob deGrom pitching at The Post Office against Luis Severino. This the new Mets. A team that hits for deGrom. Todd Frazier is 3-for-6 lifetime against Sev. [fimg=600:1ppzxvfc]http://media.sny.tv/sny/2018/06/27/images/snyf_2203545783_th_13.jpg[/fimg:1ppzxvfc] That graphic is funny.

Centerfield Aug 13 2018 01:42 PM Re: GT 8/13: NYM @NYY

I doubt they get this one in. Which is a shame because I'd like to see the MFY's have to face deGrom. In fact, if we could, I'd love to loan deGrom out to whoever is facing the Yankees for the rest of the season.

bmfc1 Aug 13 2018 02:07 PM Re: GT 8/13: NYM @NYY

They may wait a long time to get this game in (the Mets are in Baltimore tomorrow but we know that it's all about the MFYs who are home so a long delay doesn't hurt them as much) as the only common off-day is September 6 but the Mets are @LAD on the 5th and home on the 7th while the MFYs are @OAK on the 5th and @SEA on the 7th.

Edgy MD Aug 13 2018 02:10 PM Re: GT 8/13: NYM @NYYI

A rainy Monday rescheduled as part of a one-game series. It may be the least-poorly attended Yankees-Mets game ever despite the matchup on the marquee.

I think I've read this is one of the biggest vacation times too, so probably a lot of fans out of town? This is something if the Mets were in it I'd be kinda pissed about, flying all the way past Baltimore to sit in the rain in NY. I'd love to see MLB experiment with neutral parks for things like this. Have the Yankees hang around the Bay for the 6th and have the Mets come up from LA for a day game there. Or hell, scratch the 8/20 game against the Giants entirely. (Or push for a Tuesday day-night deal?) and play the Yankees then. Yankees are home and play Marlins on Tuesday whereas the Mets are arriving home from Williamsport.

I was going to post the lineups from metsdotcom but see they have Cabrera at 2B. Mickey does know Asdrubal is gone, right? NYM RH Jacob deGrom (6-7, 1.77 ERA) NYY RH Luis Severino (15-5, 3.11)

Edgy MD Aug 13 2018 07:20 PM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

My guess is that it's the lineup from the game that was originally scheduled, then postponed.

Ceetar Aug 13 2018 07:38 PM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

Yankees couldn't afford depth in the offseason, are somehow forced to play Walker in the outfield, and are playing Stanton hurt rather than DLing him. #LOLMets

Frayed Knot Aug 13 2018 08:58 PM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

Severino on the season: 24 starts; 15-5; 3.11 ERA; 1.10 WHIP Severino last six starts: 32 IP; 26 ER (7.54) on 47 hits (1.69 WHiP) The short version is that he's given up exactly the same number of earned runs in his most recent six starts as he did over the first 18 I think his presumed Cy Young went Cy O'Nara

If nothing else good can happen going forward this year, we can do worse than Rosario reversing course and establishing himself as the asset he mostly hasn't been.

Other than a few more pitches from JdG than are ideal, a very positive 1st inning.

Edgy MD Aug 13 2018 11:38 PM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

Also notable that it's the relative neophytes who have provided the offense for the Mets, while the vets have been punchless through the first two innings.

Frazier possibly could have tagged the runner who was at 2d and he could have thrown it harder to McNeil but all the blame is going to McNeil.

HahnSolo Aug 14 2018 12:14 AM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

McNeil gets the error but Frazier imo made a weak throw to try and start the DP

I think someday, perhaps quite soon, slow-mo replay and umpire reviews are going to show the world that almost all sliding players break contact with the bag for infinitesimal moments.

Frayed Knot Aug 14 2018 12:49 AM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

So this will make it about six minutes between live pitches. But, hey, at least they're 3.6% more sure that they got the call right and that's the only thing that matters (or so I've heard)

Suxx that Jake's gotten nicked up by a bloop-a-thon. I think Austin Romine's 2nd inning single is their hardest hit ball of the game for the home team.

Fman99 Aug 14 2018 01:19 AM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

These ESPN announcers are hacks. Also, apparently Frazier wanted to wear #21 as a MFY because his childhood favorite was Paul O'Neill, and then when he got to the Bronx they would not let him have it. Because, as we know, the Yankees are all fucking assholes.

Loogie gets Stanton. If the Yankees get a little rally thing going, though, it could well be Stanton coming to the plate as a tying run.

HahnSolo Aug 14 2018 02:20 AM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

The “lost the ball in the transfer” thing I think should be looked at. Not that it’s a bad thing, but how it’s being interpreted. It seems like all that is necessary is for the ball to just go in the glove, no possession needed. That’s what drives you nuts. Andujar did NOT catch that ball

G-Fafif Aug 14 2018 04:35 AM Re: IGT 8/13: NYM @NYY

That was fun! I realize that's obvious, but how often does one get to say it this season? I could see Olbermann, with the right partner (singular) to bounce off and better direction in general, being a pretty decent listen. They didn't really lose me until the bottom of the ninth when, amid a save situation, it was decided now was the time to explore KO's memorabilia collection. Do that stuff in the fourth inning.
