Jacob deGrom and the good guys go for the sweep today. Don't sleep on the 6:10 PM start.

Would it be too much to ask for an old-fashioned blowout?

Nice of the Marlins to move the game up a whole hour due to the Mets day game tomorrow in Queens. Meanwhile, WSH is playing this afternoon so they will be in New York, resting or perhaps going to a museum or a show, while the Mets are still playing in Miami.

I think the Nationals are stopping in Syracuse first before they go to New York.

Nimmo in the lineup. Guess that means he's good to go.

They really have a lot of guys whose name ends with an O. Six in today's lineup. Maybe one day I'll use the UMDB to see what the record is for most same-ending-letter-names in one starting lineup.

And they're so close to eight with Broxto and deGro.

McNeil has a "banged up" knee, per internet. Was wondering why he wasn't in there, [CROSSOUT]even with the lefty pitching.[/CROSSOUT]



Edit: this dude's not left-handed.

For what it's worth, hopefully not much, these pitchers matched up on March 12 and Richards pitched 5 shutout innings to get the win.

Weird fuckup by the infield ends as an E-6.



Rosario may have gotten caught deferring to his elder when he needs to take COMMAND.



Anyhow, all it did was give deGrom another chance to strike out a guy, and of course he did.

Yeah, you never saw the lip of the infield screw up infielders before, because infielders used to play in the infield.

So far this year, he da worst.

K & G kept saying how they've never seen that before (at least not a hop to that degree) but I fret about such a hop each and every time I see a deep-playing NYM 2nd sacker waiting for the grounder to get to him.

iow, I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often, even though, as they mentioned, those lips aren't as stark as they were in years past.

Diaz and Familia are as good as it gets so far. The rest of them, well, middle relievers are still largely interchangeable parts. If the biggest worries on this team are Lugo, Gsellman, Avilas, and Wilson, I'll sign up for that.

Howie was questioning the decision to stay with Avilan for two. I guess he doesn't really do that. It shows.



More importantly it burns him for tomorrow. Which was my issue. Why is Tim Peterson even on this team if he can't pitch in 6-0 games.

I got no problem with Avilan for two. I think fewer, longer appearances is healthier for a pen than lotso' shorter appearances.

Definitely. Pulling a reliever who had an easy inning for another reliever who may not "have his stuff" that day has always bugged me.

Re: IGT Wed Apr 3 2019 NYM @ MIA

My problem is that in the first week of the season, you've had a 7-run lead in the 9th and a 6-run lead in the 9th, and you've had to use your closer both times. That's not a good trend.
