Rosario never sits, Frazier never sits, but Smith was out yesterday and McNeil today, against righties.

smg58 Jun 06 2019 10:21 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Back-to-back homers from Rosario and Smith to start the game. I should watch more often.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 10:43 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Great to see Krane out there. He supposedly told Mickey he was available to pinch-hit today.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 10:45 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Supposedly, the transplant doctor and the donor are in the house also today. We should have heard from them as well.

smg58 Jun 06 2019 10:46 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Lagares looking like a few years ago chasing down a hard-hit fly ball.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 10:47 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

A terrible defensive team, perhaps, but Lagares should be wearing a crown out there.

Vic Sage Jun 06 2019 10:47 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

McNeil should be playing 2b today. Hechhavaria has been good, but he's not as important to our lineup as McNeil.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 10:55 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Forgot this was on. Dom Smith bunt single to shift

smg58 Jun 06 2019 10:56 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Smith follows up his homer by giving the shift the middle finger. I guess somebody finally taught him to bunt.

Vic Sage Jun 06 2019 10:57 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Yeah, Dom! Push bunt to vacated 3b position for easy single. and that is how you beat the shift.

kcmets Jun 06 2019 11:04 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

It took a couple of years, but finally seeing more guys saying "shift this!"

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 11:14 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

I'm hoping to see a bunt double. Let's shut the door here, Wheelie.

bmfc1 Jun 06 2019 11:43 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Ugh. Remember in the 1st, after the back-to-back, when the Mets had 1st and 2nd, none out? Should have put it away right away.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 11:43 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Well, I shouldn't have got up to pee.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 11:44 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Their failure to make hay of 1st and 2nd, none out scenarios was pretty costly on Tuesday too

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 11:52 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Fraze did all he could to hit into an inning ending DP but Mickey had to ruin it by running Conforto

kcmets Jun 06 2019 11:53 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Sandoval absolutely crushed that go-ahead HR.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 11:54 AM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Should've bunted again, Frazier.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:08 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Hey guys! 1st and 2nd with nobody out!

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:09 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Sac-bunting with Nido was objectionable. Infield hit is better.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:10 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Wow, what a goofy sac bunt. Sandoval should have had that in his back pocket.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:11 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

McNeil will walk here.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:12 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Tight Mickey calls for a pinch-bunter then a pinch hitter

If that's how mobile Panda is, I'd bunt to him all day.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:15 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Mickey for Manager of the Year

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:15 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Wow. McNeil didn't have a read on this pitcher at all, and he ends up turning the game around. He looked awful.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:19 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

JDP Davis

smg58 Jun 06 2019 12:19 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

So I was just about to say I was less on board with pinch-hitting for Smith with Davis...

bmfc1 Jun 06 2019 12:20 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

JD Davis for Dom? All they needed was a flyball and I'd trust Dom, even against a LHP, more than JD.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:29 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

And I'd've had Smith squeeze like a motherfucker.

bmfc1 Jun 06 2019 12:34 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

YES! I did not expect that, especially off the bat.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:34 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Frazier denied the opportunity to ground into a DP with the Conforto steal, instead hits an ugly 2 run kaboomy

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:35 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Did anybody anywhere think he got enough wood on that?

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:37 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Lagares comes back to life today. Given how Gomez has hit the last week, prolly not a bad idea. The Frazier hit was the worst struck ball of the inning. Conforto's force-play the best

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:38 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Let Hechavarria coach third!!

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2019 12:44 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

McNeil. What a stud. Giants had this one coming after Tuesday

LWFS Jun 06 2019 12:50 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

=bmfc1 post_id=12225 time=1559845255 user_id=73] JD Davis for Dom? All they needed was a flyball and I'd trust Dom, even against a LHP, more than JD.

Yyyyep.



BTW, if I'm Brodie, I wait a day, then make an offer for Melancon.

smg58 Jun 06 2019 12:55 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Solid inning from Jeurys to close it out.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 12:55 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

We're riding The Brady Bunch/Silver Platters into first place.

ashie62 Jun 06 2019 01:05 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

21 outs Mickey. You have the horses to do it and then reduce than risk of the bullpen sacking it Even if our closer is Johnny Bravo Nice win

Centerfield Jun 06 2019 01:16 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Saw the Dodgers take the lead and was pleasantly surprised to see the Mets had won. I've only been campaigning for Dom Smith to start in LF for a few weeks. Usually the Mets ignore me for longer.

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2019 03:10 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Thoughts on the Strategy!!!! - Didn't AT ALL like Gomez pinch-[CROSSOUT]hitting[/CROSSOUT]bunting. I would have hit McNeil there and NOT bunted - but, even if Mickey was set on bunting, is Carlos really that much better at it? Not by the look of things he isn't and I'm not sure, at this stage of his career, that he's any faster than McNeil either. hell, if you want to bunt I'd have put up Matz or JdG And, yeah, if Carlos picks up that ball right away (and/or starts running first and asking questions later) he probably beats the throw to 1st - Then I didn't particularly like McNeil PH'ing for Rosario, although it was slightly more justifiable once he had already made the previous move And it looked like it would REALLY blow up in his face until JMcN dunked that one in. - Now once you're at that point I was OK with JDD for Dom vs the LHP-specialist. Didn't work although I was still OK with it and he hit it hard. After that, of course, everything came up roses. - Would have been a nice sweep had Lugo & Gsellman not combined for their worst tag-team outing probably since joining the team. - Good to see a clean -- dare I say dominant? -- inning by Familia

whippoorwill Jun 06 2019 07:03 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

I will never in a million years figure out why Bobby and Cindy sang the leads in this song

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 07:38 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

No way! Bobby's trippy, soulful, psychedelic, minor-key bridge is the BEST PART!! Look at Pete Sterne's face! He agrees! It's so good it gets reprised! Mickey burned pretty much his whole bench in one inning there. All he had left was Canó and if he couldn't go, it was going to be Kranepool.

kcmets Jun 06 2019 07:53 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

I have to disagree, Bobby's 'interludes' drag the whole thing down a tad.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2019 08:06 PM Re: IGT 06/06 - SFG @ NYM - Sunshine Gay (Dame)

Well, some guys got soul, and some don't. As for Cindy, each of the Martin-Brady girls get a verse of their own. When you're in a family act, you can't just drop the weak links, You've got carry them and give them opportunities. They're family! And, as weak links go, Peter and Cindy were always a load to carry.

Yeah the producer guy liked it but Greg should have given himself one of those solos. Obviously Peter (mr. screech)was out.

Really not a fan of the replays being shown at 8 PM instead of 7 or 7:30 PM. By 10 PM I'm gassed and I went to bed before the good part of this game. Stupid SNY.
