IGT 4/23/2019: PHI @ NYM -- Bryce Yourself

Jake Arrieta called out Bryce Harper for being a dope in getting ejected Monday night. Will Harper process the constructive criticism and channel his aggression toward Zack Wheeler? Or will the heretofore golden boy of Philadelphia implode like a Washington National in October?



Tune in at 7:10 to find out. Our Zack will go up against their Zach, who obviously isn't blessed with spelling and stuff.

First meeting of the Tuesday Night Mets Club!



We'll be glamming it up more than usual in section 326.



Mets are averaging 11 runs allowed on Tuesdays so far (6-5 win @Miami; 14-8 loss vs. MIN; 14-3 loss @ PHL) so we're you know, hoping for an improvement.

Harper's continuing his commitment to his heel role in a new uniform is admirable. It's like he's constantly setting himself up to become the redemption story that never gets past the second act.



He's like a walking episode of VH-1's Behind the Music.

Guillorme (who I don't think is hopeless) hits and Wheeler doubles two runs home.



POW!

That error by Hernandez was a Little League-quality muff.



It's pretty great, Met-wise, when Arrieta calls out Harper and the team comes out and makes two infield errors the next day. I can only speculate as to whether there's a cause-effect relationship, but I can see a scenario where everybody in the clubhouse has to decide if they're on Team Jake or Team Bryce and they come out tight the next day.

I like stress-free games. We get them so infrequently.

Phillies pitcher Drew Anderson looks like Spanking the Monkey actor Jeremy Davies.

There's actually been the potential this year for several comfortable games, but in those instances the pen has given up a bunch of garbage runs that then forced Mickey to get the important parts of the pen warming up.

Be nice to avoid that with just two frames to go.



This has also been the rare game that's actually moved quicker as it went on.

This game has been fun. Todd Zeile sucks though, rest up Ronnie.

Re: IGT 4/23/2019: PHI @ NYM -- Bryce Yourself

mlb.com is crediting Wheeler with being this season's first 100/100 player: first to throw a pitch over 100 mph and also hit a pitch over 100 mph in the same game

And I'll remind everyone that this game is for sole possession of 1st place in the NL East

So, with one game left in the series, and a chance to sweep, the Mets have Philly working against themselves, and Rhame attempts to make the last out by playing dodgeball with Hoskins.



Nothing like putting their best hitter at risk to get all the Phils rowing together again. The Mets might want to sit Alfonso tomorrow.

Tuesday Night Met Club was stunned at its good fortune to be there. It didn't even get cold out there.

Re: IGT 4/23/2019: PHI @ NYM -- Bryce Yourself

We tried a take but didn't really feel it. Plus being in 326 vs our usual 500something made the studio smaller and harder to shoot. Will try again next Tuesday

It's nice Bernie finally got some nice weather and a big win to boot.
