God, I can't watch ESPN. Will A-Rod be negotiating with the Wilpons on-air?

I was curious before about whether I remembered correctly that Jessica left and

found tonight we get Karl Ravech, Eduardo Perez and Tim Kurkjian.

Mr. Rod announced a week or two ago that he has withdrawn himself from broadcasting any games involving the Mets while the bidding/buying process is still ongoing.

How about some hitting, boys? Don't trust Porcello.

Time for Pete to have a game. Porcello will likely give up a couple of dingers. J.D. Davis, you too! hit!

Porcello not exactly inspiring confidence.

ESPN as usual focused on stupid banter rather than watching the game. So annoying.

GiDP was well-timed though.

He's not exactly getting ripped all over the field; mostly just a bunch of stuff dropping in front of outfielders.

Really only that RBI liner by Adams was solidly hit.



Meanwhile, we've got 2 HBPs to show for our noffense.

Thank goodness we're hearing all about Chipper's 1999 season.

Good news, Corey Oswalt is coming in, negating the likelihood he's the fifth starter.

Wacha had much better results than Porky in spring/summer training. Wishful thinking kinda start I guess

I have no idea who Tuesday's starter is going to be.



Any chance it might be David Peterson?

And since I wrote that they've switched to dropping a bunch of soft stuff behind our outfielders.

14 - 1 and still plodding along in the 7th.



Someone at MLB who's worried about why people find baseball boring on TV should listen to the

audio of tonight's broadcast five times and fix it.

On the bright side, Diaz won't be pitching the 9th.

Re: IGT 07/26 - Braves at Mets

It's always a point of pride to stick with a blowout until the bitter end, but man, it felt like the park was empty in the last few innings tonight.



I know that once upon a time, something good must've happened to the Mets during a regular season Sunday night game broadcast on ESPN. Probably more than once. But it feels like no, never has any such thing occurred.

Camping all week up in the Adirondacks with no cell signal and a shaky wifi network. And so I missed all of this and it seems like that's maybe not such a bad thing.

Re: IGT 07/26 - Braves at Mets

Beyond a "normal" greatness from deGrom and an admirable effort from Matz we know we can't get every time, we have been simply uncompetitive in all 5 games I've seen so far, and "on pace" for my predicted 20-40 finish!
