Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Maybe we need to, you know, start these things before the games start. For good luck and shit. Thor vs Cal Quantrill? That sounds made up to me.

Are any of the Padres upset that Syndergaard just won the "NL Player of the Week" award?

The Mets aren't the only ones slumping. CPF is also in a funk. Everyone posting like they're just going through the motions. I feel like KC gonna get the whack soon.

Quantrill was one of the names mentioned last offseason as possibly coming back to the Mets if they traded Noah to the Padres.

This is going to be one of those guy-just-called-up-from-AAA-throws-seven-scoreless-innings games. This fuckin' team, man.

Nah, it's gone on long enough. This'll be the game they snap the funk and go on that 15-5 tear they're due.

Edgy MD May 07 2019 10:43 AM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Cal Quantrill is the longtime son of longtime big league reliever Paul Quantrill. He's a former first-round pick but he's been to the Tommy John House since then. No green hayseed, he has appeared internationally for Team Canada.

Ceetar May 07 2019 11:45 AM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Not sure how to do 'first game against the Mets' split, but here's the combined pitching record for the first start against the Mets that occurs within a pitcher's first three career starts Since 2015: 7-17 (pitcher's have a 5-10 record) and a 4.976 ERA

Jeez. Quit complicating the issue with facts.



This is interesting. I wonder how much of that is due to September call-ups in games that are meaningless to both teams.

Ceetar May 07 2019 01:04 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

[url]https://www.baseball-reference.com/tiny/sS341 link to the query. (I manually edited it to remove the duplicates, where a guy pitched twice against us in the first three) Interestingly, this seems to be the first time this season we've seen a guy within his first 6 career games this season. Within first 10? Paddock last night and we destroyed Kyle Wright w/ Atlanta in April.

G-Fafif May 07 2019 01:24 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Mets are due for a "more runs in one inning than they've scored in their last six games combined" outburst, which is to say maybe they'll score three or four tonight.

Centerfield May 07 2019 05:05 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Agreed. They're going to win today 11-2, and everyone will be like "save some runs for tomorrow". And they won't. And we'll lose 2 of 3.

Ordinarily you'd look at a lineup featuring Nimmo & Frazier 7-8 and go, 'Wow, that must be a really good 1-thru-6'

G-Fafif May 07 2019 06:37 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

The Mets, the Mets, a helluva town Wilmer Font is up, Corey Oswalt is down It's a DP when Ramos hits one on the ground The Mets, The Mets... They're a helluva town!

Edgy MD May 07 2019 07:29 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

The amazing skill is when you hit into a double-play with nobody on base. Amazingly, he's actually only got four GiDP in 33 games. Perception, man. McNeil, Ramos, and Nimmo have names that take up virtually the same exact amount of picas. At least, they do in that font. Alonso's name is maybe a hair wider, and Rosario's a hair wider than that.

Fman99 May 07 2019 07:52 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

At least we're talking about wide hairs. That's a start.

Here's to Alonso (a) batting fourth, and (b) again willing to drive in runs without knocking it out of the park.

When was the last time Syndergaard got a swinging strike? Geez. Rosie is erroring his was off the roster

Rosario's defense is depressing this year.

Frayed Knot May 07 2019 08:55 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Not that I'm unhappy with this sudden spate of offense, but with 2 doubles + 3 singles + plus a HBP in only two innings, we should have more than two runs.

nymr83 May 07 2019 09:00 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

That it's "at worst a tie" Is the Reason you don't overturn it Gary!!

LWFS May 07 2019 09:20 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

It was "at worst" a tie meant that Quantrill either had it beaten outright OR it was a tie. That replay challenge on Quantrill's grounder/footrace with Noah went our way, yes, but honestly... I don't understand how.

Did Canó's 2,500th break the Mets offense again?

I see Renfroe, I see France I see Noah's underpants.

Mets may want to stack their defense at the warning track.

Through Canó.

Edgy MD May 07 2019 10:36 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

I don't like Rosario's game too much, but I have to say, he hits it hard.

Edgy MD May 07 2019 10:40 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

I resent the Padres for not retiring Piazza's number.

LWFS May 07 2019 10:49 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Every Ramos AB these days looks like he was mildly drugged pregame.

Game tied!! Nimmo good again!! Ramos still torpid!!

Edgy MD May 07 2019 11:07 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Adam Warren in to pitch for the Pirates. The Mets had him AAA once, but they used him exclusively in the outfield.

SHMOKES Hosmer, and the Pads are down to their last out, with the sacks full.

Edgy MD May 07 2019 11:50 PM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Holy crap. The game ends on a hard grounder to Rosario's right that I was almost certain he'd fumble. Put it in the books. The holy books.

nymr83 May 08 2019 12:43 AM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

Thought Diaz would choke it up, lucky to get away with one here.

I'd like to thank Andy Green for pulling his starting pitcher after 4 1/3 innings and 86 pitches. Apparently, after four games coming off the bench for the 2009 Mets, Greenie knows where his true loyalties lay.

Zonked on the couch with the TV on in the 3rd inning, awoke every time Gary's voice raised, so when Alonso homered and when Diaz had the bases loaded and 1 out. Was terrified I'd never get back to sleep had Rosey not made the last play. It says something that even coming out of a deep sleep I'm worried when the ball is hit to him.

A Boy Named Seo May 08 2019 09:56 AM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

I was very worried that not pinch-running for Ramos in the 7th was gonna screw us. Thankfully Andy Green returned the favor and left Warren in to face our 3-4-5 hitters in the 9th inning of a tie game. He'd already burned 4 relievers in the game, so I get it, but I'd want my stud against their studs in that spot. Thanks, Andy! Thanks, Pete!

Edgy MD May 08 2019 10:59 AM Re: Real Life IGT May 7 NYM @ SDP

And that's why I was grateful he went to the pen after only 4 1/3. You can build a pen of 5 relievers or 10 relievers, but the number of guys you are going to trust with the game on the line remains the same. Plus ... day game today!
