Dakota Hudson versus Jason Varga. Dakota may need help from Wall Drugs to get through this one Could be a high scoring game Hudson gets torched by lefties and Conforto could crush his sinker

Like that Hech is playing short. Don't like that McNeil is sitting.

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 10:42 AM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Why would McNeil, a lefty sit here??

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 10:46 AM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

1 Dominic Smith 2 JD Davis 3 M Conforto 4 Alonso 5 Cano 6 Hechavarria 7 Lagares 8 Nido 9 Vargas Dominic on top. Whoa

We would have also accepted Alonso to Hit One to Hudson Yards.

Y. Molina is catching all 4 games (as Gary noted) but McNeil (and Frazier, Rosario, Ramos) can't play the day after a night game. I can live with the last 3 but McNeil should be there 162 games in a row.

Is this a fan behind home plate, a mannequin, or perhaps a corpse? I haven't seen her move, pay attention to the game, or even breathe yet. https://metsinpeace.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/screen-shot-2019-06-16-at-1.30.13-pm.png>

Now she's gone--either she moved on her own or was taken to a storage room.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 11:51 AM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Kooky and successful hook slide by Lagares. You'd think he was Rickey Henderson as much as he wanted that bag.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 11:52 AM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Yadi is the only catcher I know who wears that Nike baskeball logo on his chest protector. It's so wrong.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 12:19 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Bader is fun. He's always throwing after the lead runner, whether he has a chance or not, and he's always offline to the left. The stupidity of his throw is what put the go-ahead run in scoring position for the Mets, and now the Mets are ahead.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 12:27 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

The Mets' hats look like they were originally royal blue but were made with bad dye and the players are sweating through them.

Can't the Mets find a SS who can play SS? You might as well put McNeil there given the others defensive play.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 12:32 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Should've gone for the lead runner, Vargy.

kcmets Jun 16 2019 12:42 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Vargas aggravates something on a swing and exits... jeez

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 12:43 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Vargas is injured We are now down Noah & Vargas now Dumpster Fire!!!!!!!

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 12:44 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

This season just keeps getting worse

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 12:45 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

I don't agree with that definition of "dumpster fire."

kcmets Jun 16 2019 12:53 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Radio booth sez Vargas only cramped up. Hydrate better, fellas!

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 12:57 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

So ... not a dumpster fire?

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 01:05 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Damn, Canoe. Just squeeze in that situation.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 01:16 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

This has been a dumpstertastic job by Font.

ashie62 Jun 16 2019 01:16 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

I would rather stretch out Wilmer Font to start than go to Flexen.

Wilmer!! Starting hitting gentlemen

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 01:49 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

I think so. Strange time to turn to Flexie.

Brooks Pounder looks like he pounds drafts

Frayed Knot Jun 16 2019 02:05 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Listed at 6' 5" / 265 Former 2nd round draft pick out of HS by the Pirates in 2009 Turns 29 at the end of the season. Where he's pitching by that time of the year is still to be determined.

bmfc1 Jun 16 2019 02:10 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Let's get Pounders a win!--said for the first time.

bmfc1 Jun 16 2019 02:22 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jun 16 2019 02:24 PM

Today's "FU Awards" go to: Ramos, for the game-ending DP; Hech, for 2 errors including one that cost a run; Cano, for hitting into a DP with 1st and 3d; Flexen, for being himself; Mickey, for not giving McNeil 4 ABs; and, BVW, your daily recipient, for putting together this shit show.

Frayed Knot Jun 16 2019 02:24 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

That GiDP seemed almost preordained. It was the third one of the game -- plus Lagares was thrown at trying (probably unnecessarily) to advance to 2nd -- meaning StL pitchers needed to retire just 23 NYM batters instead of 27. And the reversed call on Lagares's SB is the only thing that kept it from being 22. Mets, meanwhile, set up a run for the Cards by failing to turn a GiDP (E-6) and followed that by maybe turning the wrong GiDP as Frazier opted to go 2nd-to-1st instead of home-then-1st w/Molina running. Plays. Not. Made.

Edgy MD Jun 16 2019 03:31 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Yeah, risk abounds, and this baseball team is riskier than most, but ... not for a single inning did I think the Cards had the better team this series. I think there's some assheaded stuff going on, though. I have no FU to Flexie. It's bizarre that he was put in that situation, though.

Paul DeJong is closing in fast on Gary f'n Pendleton, Yadier f'n Molina and Larry f'n Jackson on the list of Cardinals I have really despised over the years. Later

Lefty Specialist Jun 17 2019 07:19 AM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Flexen is an AAAA player. He's had plenty of chances and has never proved he's anything more than that. Next.

Yup. https://cdnph.upi.com/pv/upi/5c1339d1cd76626961b1d16c5fa479e7/MLB-BREWERS-CARDINALS.jpg> I think I saw it somewhere else on his person, too. Looks like MFS has fused the DNA of Garry Templeton and Terry Pendleton and created a monstrous double-Y chromosome hybrid.

Frayed Knot Jun 17 2019 01:02 PM Re: IGT 6/16 South Dakota Hudson Cards vs Mets

Yadier seems like an odd choice to have been deemed worthy of the jump logo. That Jeter was 'blessed' by 'His Airness' to be worthy of it seems almost too simple. I think his use of it was confined to his wristbands. Probably his underwear too. Would have fetched a higher price that way at the season-long auction he and Steiner were conducting on his way out the door. Game-used y'know!
