No DH?

Noah will be tonight's DH, the Designated Hittite

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 21 2020 03:06 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Guillermo Heredia called up, is tonight's center fielder as Marisnick goes on DL for the rest of the year and perhaps all time

I knew Gandhi would be a bad fit.

deGrom on a 10 pitch strike out the side mission in the first.

Who is Guillermo Heredia? Edgy finally made up a Mets player in real time. Nice work.

Frayed Knot Sep 21 2020 06:24 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Heredia is part of the rare Lefty-glove / Righty-Stick club.

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 06:40 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

I'm like Sting. I can't stand losing.

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 06:42 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Who is Heredia? Oh, read the roster thread for once. He's been with the organization over a month.

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 21 2020 06:46 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Heredia fights back from 0-2 and draws a 2-out walk.

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 21 2020 06:47 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

He's a rally igniter!

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 07:05 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

I have this habit. Every time Ramos gets on base, I start counting how many hits it's going to take to score him.

I have this habit. Every time Ramos gets on base, I start counting how many hits it's going to take to score him. That ain't a healthy way to be.

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 21 2020 07:08 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Well at least we cleared the Alonso

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 07:15 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Kiermaier looksed like a righthanded batter desperately trying to hit lefty up there. JdeG fans #14.

Frayed Knot Sep 21 2020 07:18 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

This Diego Castillo guy looks like HE should be the one labeled as the 'Bulk' starter.

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 07:27 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Well, deGrom hits the showers. Hopefully, he gets a shot at a complete game in his last start.

Edgy MD Sep 21 2020 07:43 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Good job getting the walk by Davis, for whom batting has really seemed like a foreign enterprise of late.

Frayed Knot Sep 21 2020 07:50 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Marlins (by 2 in the 7th) and Philly (by 4 in the 9th) both losing. If we want to pretend that there's ANY chance of playing past Sunday we need to pull this one out here.

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 21 2020 08:09 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

Alonso is terrible. I mean, awful

bmfc1 Sep 21 2020 08:22 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

He is and if you look closely he has been since March. As someone who watched numerous spring games in person it was obvious that he was chasing and undercutting. He hit no spring HRs but you had to think that this would be noticed and fixed by July. It wasn't and still hasn't been. Whether Chili Davis is a good coach or not is unclear but Alonso needs a long break from baseball and being "Pete Alonso" to chill before he starts lifting and swinging again.

Johnny Lunchbucket Sep 22 2020 05:36 AM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

I thought Smotzy brought up an interesting point the other day, completely speculative and all, that Alonso is the kind of player that feeds on the energy of a crowd more than most, and the fraudulent season is making it more difficult on him than on other dudes. That's probably true at some level.

bmfc1 Sep 22 2020 07:50 AM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

I'll give you credit for that interesting point and not Smoltz. If you watch the videos where he's mic'd he likes talking to the opposing team and his teammates so perhaps sitting in the dugout as the DH, stewing in the juices of yet another K, without the distraction of the fans or knowing his cute fiancee is somewhere in the building, isn't good for him.

Edgy MD Sep 22 2020 01:23 PM Re: IGT 09/21 - Don't Stop, Give It All You Got!

It's a completely old skool read, but it's probably true at some level for a bunch of guys.
