Syndergaard versus someone not as good as Syndergaard.

I'm just looking forward to another badly-played, four hour-plus blowout ... hopefully with a rain delay thrown in.

He somehow walks syndergaard anyway. Nimmo up, sacks drunk, 2 outs and Odorizzi out. Amazin.

A single followed by three consecutive walks!! yields (so far) no runs.

That's tough to do.





But now a HBP nets one!!

Re: IGT - Twins at Mets - April 10

Meanwhile ... what a quick hook by the rookie manager Baldelli!!

Especially when you consider that he was thinking of yanking the starter in the top of the 5th when he still had a no-hitter going with a low pitch count.

And it's not like Odorizzi is some green kid with no track record.



And so far he's getting burned by it.

And this following a night where he felt it necessary to employ seven different pitchers in a game where his staff was given 14 runs.

As opposed to Alonso who, like Bon Jovi, is starting to give glove a bad name.

Lost in all the HRs yesterday was big Pete totally whiffing on a ball hit right to him which led to several of those runs.

This is only the second time I recall seeing Syndergaard flying the man-bun.

That play was particularly uggo as he stabbed with a backhand at a ball that went between his legs, bless his giant, polar heart.

Re: IGT - Twins at Mets - April 10

Seven innings in < 6 innings worth (87) of pitches for Noah including retiring the last 13 batters in a row.

Obviously you bring him back for the 8th and then play things out from there.

Nice hitting by Conforto to make it 8-1. Noah should sit down for good now.

Re: IGT - Twins at Mets - April 10

Two things are apparent in NYM games so far this season

- that whether the Mets are ahead by a lot or behind by a lot in late innings, the game is never really put away until the last out

- no matter how the game is progressing, it's not going to end quickly. Only one game has been under 3 hours so far (opening day) and most haven't been close including last night which was 4:08 and the longest game in the majors this year

More NYM games over 3:50 so far this season (3) than under 3:10 (2)

Re: IGT - Twins at Mets - April 10

I think I've figured out all these comebacks.



Team gets a big lead, relaxes a little, puts some subs in, makes the pitcher sit during a rally ... all of a sudden everybody's cold.



Team that's behind is staying out on the field, jumping around. They're warm. In the late innings, they start chipping away, and whoever comes in for the trailing team on the mound is that much colder.



It's a thermal thing.
