A Boy Named Seo Apr 06 2021 02:42 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

That looks better.

TransMonk Apr 06 2021 03:17 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

This is the future I was promised.

seawolf17 Apr 06 2021 03:26 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

deGrom looked at this lineup today and was like FOR FUCK'S SAKE

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 04:09 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Much better lineup agreed.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 05:37 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Perhaps 2nd time thru they'll unfuck themselves Disappointed they can't make hay of a leadoff double and a hbp that takes out a guy

kcmets Apr 06 2021 05:40 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Early JD Davis watch thread may be jn order.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 05:42 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

More unpreparedness for the Mets

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 05:47 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Stro = fun to watch. At least when going well

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 05:57 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Safe.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 05:57 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Luis won a challenge!

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 05:59 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Disappointing team so far

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:11 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Alonso laying off the slider away is something nice.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:13 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Dombombs are also nice.

Centerfield Apr 06 2021 06:13 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Dom sucks. Let's sit him again.

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 06:14 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Yeah Dom! BLAMMO

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:25 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

First run given up by a Mets starter right there.

Willets Point Apr 06 2021 06:40 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Apparently Keith's ringtone is a harbinger of home runs.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:44 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Let's chase this junker this inning.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:52 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Do it again, Dom.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 06:59 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Keith is discussing a sexual lubricant on air.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:05 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Alonso is quite goaltender today.

Frayed Knot Apr 06 2021 07:05 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Pete is suddenly our best defensive infielder.

Chad ochoseis Apr 06 2021 07:06 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Alonso has turned from meh to great with the glove in the space of about a season and a half.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:10 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

We're at 85 pitches. I'm thinking that's the new 100.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:17 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Pillar will pinch hit

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 07:17 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Christ I do enjoy GKR in the booth.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:21 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Bloated for Nimmo. Three walks already. I have Nimms take a strike.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:23 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Velasquez nothing but balls and strikes

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:23 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Ball 4! A thrilling walk!

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:24 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Fantastic, Nimmo. Take what you're given.

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 07:24 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Yeah Nimmo!

Chad ochoseis Apr 06 2021 07:24 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Really? I've got a 3-1 count on Zimmo. Takes a while for the news to get to Cleveland.

Frayed Knot Apr 06 2021 07:28 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Yeah, throwing four wide ones for intentional walks is what slows the game down. The Phil's have had more mound conferences this inning than the Mets have had batters.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:31 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

I have the boombox again tonight, oftentimes radio is ahead of the TV but they are all working off TV now. big hitless rally continues

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:31 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

I assume we're seeing mas Castro in the bottom of the seventh.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:32 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Now a Conforto double and its 6-1

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 07:33 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

FINALLY.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:33 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Conforto just added some icing here. Pretty cool to get around on the ball one pitch after the guy throws a ball between your legs. Maybe we're going to do some Brachali chopping in the bottom of the inning.

nymr83 Apr 06 2021 07:34 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

the double steal was huge and a great play to try with 2 outs and 2 strikes

Frayed Knot Apr 06 2021 07:44 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

I've not seen nothing like this speedy Quinn

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 07:48 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

3 hits in a row, not good

Chad ochoseis Apr 06 2021 07:50 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Castrol didn't look too slick yesterday either. No runs, but a few hard hit at-ems.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:52 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Getting dicey, Castro.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 07:54 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Man, Nimmo was excited about catching that ball. (I'm not sure why he's still in center, actually. Shouldn't he have stayed in the game after pinch-hitting, considering Pete made the last out?)

Chad ochoseis Apr 06 2021 07:55 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

For all the "Nimmo needs to be a corner outfielder" talk, every time I see him in CF he looks fine.

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 07:59 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Castro was giving me all the agitation tonight, holy moly.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 08:03 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

2-out rally. Here comes Albert Almora's Met debut

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 08:13 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

May looks less shaky tonight. Or maybe I'm just thinking wishfully.

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 08:14 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Oh for fuck's sake.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 08:16 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Our manager is a genius

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 08:16 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Be a nice time for a mound visit here.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 06 2021 08:17 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

I hope Trevor May doesn't appear in every game this season.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 08:18 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Bite me, Miller

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 08:18 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Miller knows a lot of words beginning in F.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 06 2021 08:20 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Whew!

Fman99 Apr 06 2021 08:23 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

3:10 in and an entire inning to go. It's like we already have a DH. I'm going to have to move to the central time zone just to be able to watch these games in their entirety.

Johnny Lunchbucket Apr 06 2021 08:29 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

There we go. Nearly Diaz proof.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 08:32 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

That's career homer #70 for Alonso. On a pace to reach 150 by year's end.

Why try for the extra base down 8-2? Why rush the throw up 8-2?

Frayed Knot Apr 06 2021 08:40 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

During the opening series, the Braves announcers were complaining about how many cheap hits the Phil's were getting. And so it continues.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 08:46 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

Throw strikes!

Kind of sucking is not necessarily a barrier to victory.

Edgy MD Apr 06 2021 08:55 PM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

The Phils' grip on first is loosening. Which is good, because I'm not sure they aren't the worst team in the division.

Fman99 Apr 07 2021 04:03 AM Re: IGT #2 Mets @ Phils Apr 6 2021

I went to bed after the 8th. Glad to see they didn't piss this one away.
