Let's keep it going guys! Wheeler versus Newcomb. Newcomb's a lefty. 1.64 ERA. But hasn't faced Pete Fucking Alonso yet.

Fuck, sportsbook told me Wright was starting for ATL? Newcomb tomorrow?

kcmets Apr 12 2019 11:46 AM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

I believe it is Wright tonight.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Zack Wheeler (0-1, 10.24 ERA) vs. Braves RH Kyle Wright (0-1, 4.35)

Frayed Knot Apr 12 2019 01:23 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

I was speculating yesterday (in the KTE) that the Braves might skip the rookie Wright and go directly to Newcomb due to their snow-out in Denver on Wednesday. But I guess not, so that means we'll likely see Newcomb and Teheran over the weekend and miss the lefty Max Fried (pronounced: Freed) this time around. Wright had four relief appearances at the tail end of last year including a one inning stint vs the Mets on 9/26 where Conforto and Dom hit solo HRs off him in an eventual 3-0 NYM win This season he's made two starts: 3 earned on 2 hits plus 5 walks in 4.1 IP in Philly (L); 6.0 innings, 2 runs, 5 hits, 1 BB vs Marlins (ND)

Sorry guys! ESPN had it wrong I guess.

After winning last night, this becomes BIG GAME. Tomorrow we have Vargas and on Sunday, a pissed-off deGrom. Sneak tonight's game and we have a good shot at 3-out-of-4 and an outside shot at a sweep if Vargas doesn't get his tits lit.

Big feller getting the night off at 1B. I like McNeil/Rosario at the top, they're both hitting more than Nimmo of late.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 04:12 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Well, in fairness, deGrom is hitting more than Nimmo of late.

A Boy Named Seo Apr 12 2019 04:33 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

I'm thinking it's Cano who needs a night off.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 06:34 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Here's to an effective lineup and to bunting against the shift. Way to go, McNeilio.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 06:39 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

That's the way, Canó. I was getting ready to take away Willie Mays' number for him and give him Willie Harris'.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 06:41 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Mets giving the Braves' gun-running rightfielder a lot of chasing work.

Lefty Specialist Apr 12 2019 06:54 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Let's see if Wheeler can deal with all this prosperity.

41Forever Apr 12 2019 07:22 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Nice play by Swanson robs Rosario.

MFS62 Apr 12 2019 07:23 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Dom Smith might be playing for a roster spot. Later

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 07:37 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Gary bringing us a Jane Jarvis reference. I feel like it's Christmas.

Fman99 Apr 12 2019 07:51 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

This game is great. I love the 2019 Mets so far, they hit, they pitch, they manufacture runs. It's like they are trying to be good or something.

Plus, there's always at least one dangerous pinch hitter lurking on the bench (Alonso, e.g.). Lineup looks a lot stronger top to bottom like this, doesn't it? This is a pretty deep, versatile offensive team. (Consider: neither Lowrie nor Cespedes has seen the field yet.)

Fman99 Apr 12 2019 07:52 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Nimmo starting to come around.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 07:52 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

I'd say he looks like he's back.

LWFS Apr 12 2019 07:57 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

He went somewhere? Cripes, people-- he had a bad WEEK.

LWFS Apr 12 2019 08:11 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Minter's beard is a little extra, as the kids say. It's like face turf.

Lefty Specialist Apr 12 2019 08:21 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Not crazy about Lugo for a second inning here, but they don't have a lot of options.

LWFS Apr 12 2019 08:29 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Fine with it. And hey-- it worked! Drama-free and loving it.

Edgy MD Apr 12 2019 08:33 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Yup. Let Lugo pitch the non-existent 10th for all I care.

Methead Apr 12 2019 08:38 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

I really like beating the Braves.

Fman99 Apr 12 2019 08:44 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Yep it is satisfying. Onward!

kcmets Apr 12 2019 09:23 PM Re: IGT - Mets at Braves - April 12

Nice win first place is the best place.
