IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

[YOUTUBE]F2vhMW7kmeg[/YOUTUBE] Day portion of day-night doubleheader. Ruin their afternoon.

G-Fafif Jun 10 2019 04:56 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Wheeler to pitch the Metinee. Vargas comes out at night. Opponents: Tanaka (D), Paxton (N).

bmfc1 Jun 10 2019 05:19 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

They can add a dude for a split doubleheader so who will it be? I'd say a third catcher (so they can pinch run for Ramos) but there aren't any other catchers on the 40-man.

Gotta move quickly. It takes a while for a flight from Vegas to get across the country and into NYC in time for a day game.



... oh wait!!

That's a great PF track up above by the way. Even with the sorta-sweet/rather-icky way Keef sings a luv song to his younger siblings. That's the Wrecking Crew backing that track. It's funny to see this poor little non-musician 10-year-old trying to mime a drum track laid down by Hal Blaine, or Lori trying to pump all those great horn lines out of her electric parlor organ.

Luis Guillorme is your 26th man.

apparently quick-DHs don't get a 26th man or something.

Jeff McNeil - 2B Michael Conforto – RF Pete Alonso – DH which is stupid Dominic Smith – 1B Todd Frazier – 3B J.D. Davis – LF Amed Rosario – SS Tomás Nido – C Juan Lagares – CF Zack Wheeler – RHP

Indeed. Luis tonight.

Good thing Guillorme is en route, because we apparently need a second baseman.

McNeil was taking extra BP, has now assumed his place atop the order.

bmfc1 Jun 11 2019 09:06 AM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Guillorme--not very inspiring but I looked at the 40-man and there is no other hitter who is not injured. None. I'd rather have a 3rd catcher so they can pinch-run for Ramos AND pinch-hit for Nido or a power bat. All of these injured players are on the 40-man: L. Avilan 10-day DL R. Cano 10-day DL B. Nimmo 10-day DL J. Wilson 10-day DL 25 active, those 4, plus Guillorme equals 30 + Bashlor, Flexen, Hanhold, Kilome, Lockett, O'Rourke, Oswalt, Rhame, Zamora = 39 (so who is the 40th?) Guillorme is the only non-pitcher who is healthy that they could have called up for the 2d game.

=bmfc1 post_id=12650 time=1560265616 user_id=73](so who is the 40th?)

According to both B-R and mets.com, they have 39 on the roster right now.

bmfc1 Jun 11 2019 09:24 AM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Thanks seawolf17--I questioned my ability to count to 40 (so why don't they have someone else there? and why is Rahme there?).

Chad ochoseis Jun 11 2019 10:21 AM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

D-U-M dumb as the DH may be, it's nice to see Smitty at 1B, where he belongs. Without looking too closely at the MFY lineup because it hurts my eyes, I suspect that playing with a DH helps us more than them.

ashie62 Jun 11 2019 10:29 AM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Smith and Alonso are above average at 1B. It becomes who do you want in LF, Davis or Dominic

I guess maybe they figure Lowrie is coming back soon? Although you can always move Kilome to the 60 to clear space, so I don't know.

G-Fafif Jun 11 2019 10:59 AM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Kind of revolting to have to turn on a game from MFYS III.

The Mets don't want to put Kilome on the 60, as that would mean paying him big league money and, probably more importantly, starting his service clock.

Damn, the opposite field flare serves McNeil last week. The opposite field flare hurts him this week.

You can't move a guy to the 60 unless you're fully at 40.

Another inning-starting error for the MFYs and Fraze is on second

Give the error to both Yankees.

You can't move a guy to the 60 unless you're fully at 40.

Right, but that's my point. If you add a third catcher or Tim Tebow or whatever for the doubleheader, then you're at 40 and then you're limited. But you have a guy on the 40 who isn't going to see MLB action this year, so if you had to bring someone else up, Kilome seems like the logical guy to move.



I can't imagine being on the 40 vs the 60 impacts service time at all. That doesn't make any sense.



Also we're clogging up an IGT with this, so I apologize.

Edgy MD Jun 11 2019 12:16 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

How many baserunners have hit it through Gregorious this afternoon? I can't imagine being on the 40 vs the 60 impacts service time at all. That doesn't make any sense. It does.

bmfc1 Jun 11 2019 12:20 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

That was another awful AB by Lagares. Nimmo will be back soon and with the rise of Gomez, BVW is going to have to think long and hard about Lagares' future despite the contract.

seawolf17 Jun 11 2019 12:22 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

The only thing I can think is that Kilome isn't on the major-league DL, so you'd have to "call him up" to put him on the 60...?

Mark Simon has a new article in The Athletic on the Top 10 Defensive Infields. It will not surprise you to learn that the Mets are not on the list (Dodgers #1).

Edgy MD Jun 11 2019 12:49 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

This afternoon's Yankee lineup may be somehow worse. This is such a butt Yankee team. Their defense stinks like a diaper. Tanaka is not going to be the end.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2019 12:49 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

This is how this shit MFY team wins. It's not that they're good it's that teams suck when they play them. The Mets should be embarrassed

bmfc1 Jun 11 2019 12:57 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

Rosario, Frazier, Davis--not that Wheeler is without blame but those are 3 plays that should have been made. For all of the alleged smart people in the Mets FO they don't seem to emphasize defense.

Edgy MD Jun 11 2019 01:00 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

We're a disgrace. This was the one we had to win and jumped out on Tanaka. Mets appear to have no plan to pitch the bottom third of the lineup, field indifferently, give something up and never get it back.

Beyond bad

Frayed Knot Jun 11 2019 04:36 PM Re: IGT 6/11/2019 (D): NYM @ MFY — Summer Days

What a deflating piece-o-shit game that was: the blown lead, the bad defense, the ridiculous rate of 2-out hits allowed, HRs to marginal players - all w/runners on of course, the lack of 2-out hitting on the other side, and the just sheer lack-of-luck in that every MFY hit that wasn't hit hard fell in anyway (just beyond McNeil, just in front of Davis, just beyond Conforto). The whole scenario where we (Frazier) get a runner on 2nd via an infield error w/no outs and leave him there, and then they get a runner on 2nd via a two-out error (against Frazier) this time and score a bushel just sums up the afternoon. There must be a way to estimate just exactly how much our staff's horrid ability to close out both batters and innings is costing us. Even before you get into the 'hidden runs' caused by increased pitch counts, early bullpen trips, etc., if this staff were to hold the opposition to a BAA/OBA/SLG-w/RiSP at a clip that merely matched their already sub-par batting-against for the season it would shirley shave multiple runs allowed (a dozen?, two dozen?, more?) off that side of the ledger. Certainly we'd be an over-.500 club which, in this division at the moment, means touching distance to 1st place. Instead, our BAA-A w/RiSP is the worst in MLB so now each hit, each walk, each error, and each play not made!! winds up hurting just that much more. That this was all on display this afternoon in the fucking Bronx against a pieced-together lineup which is doing the very opposite in those situations (not just today but the whole fucking season!!), just makes you want to hurl again. And you know this is going to get spun as: 'Well the Yanx don't play that way' even though they were every bit as awful in the field today (and have more errors on the season) but simply got more, and more timely, hits.
