The second game will start as soon as they hang the new batting coach from the yard arm. I would post the lineup, but I just ate. Later

Ceetar May 05 2021 05:56 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

this'll be the 14-3 game presumably.

Any word on deGrom?

McNeil 2B Alonso 1B Conforto RF D. Smith LF Pillar CF Villar SS Peraza 3B Nido C Castro RHP Lindor rests. Peraza becomes Mets third baseman No. 176. Castro will not be available in the late innings, apparently.

Losing is a disease ... as contagious as polio.

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 06:27 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Remember when the gap between games of a DH was maybe 20 minutes? The only thing longer than this gap was the top of the 4th in Game 1

bmfc1 May 05 2021 06:29 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Maybe McNeil should achieve his dream of being a professional golfer.

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 06:33 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Well, we got one ball out of the infield.

bmfc1 May 05 2021 06:36 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

The HP ump in G2 gets G1 off even though it's only 7 innings? My God, not only are they bad at their jobs and overpaid but they are lazy, too.

Gary once again misinterpreting analytics.

This continued streak of ineptness is simply stunning.

The 2021 Mets: we score on errors, wild pitches, and bases-loaded HBPs (and apparently 2R/2-out HRs as well)

Johnny Lunchbucket May 05 2021 07:05 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Whoa check out Mazeika's hip look. I think I bought a kale pop from him on Berry street the other day

Pillar shits on the urinator

One thing's fer sure. Nimmo ain't cutting down that run.

Yammy is hittable, but hanging in there

Edgy MD May 05 2021 07:33 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Yammy seems to be cut from Stro's cloth, intensity wise.

Villar now out slugging and out RBIing Lindor

Edgy MD May 05 2021 07:52 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Nido is putting Lindy to shame also. Apparently, guys coming up from the minors are being treated like it's only the second week of spring training with regard to pitch counts.

Edgy MD May 05 2021 07:58 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Loup leaving some junk over the plate to righthanded hitters.

kcmets May 05 2021 08:03 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

4-1 through four innings. Why does it feel like we're behind and losing?

Aaron Loup came real close to turning into Aaron Poup there and, well, we're a few notches into the pen already.

Oh good, another mound conference. And now another.

Catching some breaks, finally, are the good guys.

Does this get Yamamoto another start?

Villar is really humiliating Lindor

Edgy MD May 05 2021 08:27 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Time to sign Villar to a 10-year, $342 million extension.

Did they neglect to discuss Carpenter prior to the game so now need a mid-inning committee meeting?

Fman99 May 05 2021 08:43 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Who's closing tonight ? I'm hoping for 87 insurance runs.

Gsellman, Diaz, and/or Familia

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 08:47 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Have we got anyone named Riff on the squad to take care of this Bernado guy the Cards just brought in?

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 08:48 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

And after one batter faced the Cards decide they need a mound conference !!

Gsellman, Diaz, and/or Familia I know Diaz left the other night with "back tightness," which might be the medical term for barfing up most of a four run lead. And naturally the St. Louis broadcast team is Johnny on the Spot there with the cameras in the Mets pen.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 05 2021 08:53 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

That was an ultimate frisbee kinda effort

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 08:54 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Right now, with the Mets threatening for more and no one warming in the pen, it looks like Gsellman. (answering Fman)

Edgy MD May 05 2021 08:55 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Did the Cards just bring Jody Watley into the game?

I'm remembering when it was a tossup whether Goldschmidt or Ike Davis was the better asset at first.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 05 2021 09:07 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

The frisbee play I meant was just getting totally horizontal at speed, but O'Neill couldn't hold onto the ball.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 05 2021 09:09 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Well done Mets. They now have a shot at salvaging a series split on the road

Frayed Knot May 05 2021 09:10 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

Undefeated with Lindor on the bench.

bmfc1 May 05 2021 09:10 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

It feels like much longer than Sunday since their last win. Nice job in G2.

Johnny Lunchbucket wrote: The frisbee play I meant was just getting totally horizontal at speed, but O'Neill couldn't hold onto the ball. Agreed. I was just thinking that there's this magic moment on such plays, when a frisbee is thrown ahead toward the end zone, and the whole swarm on both sides realizes about the same that only one player has a chance to run it down. Everybody else stops running at once and as he streaks on ahead and goes full extension into a high impact dive, even the other team is kind of rooting for him to come up with it.

They happen when you're chasing a Drifter.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 05 2021 10:40 PM Re: IGT Cinco De Mayo Game Dos 5/5/21

As a former ultimate frisbee legend I can tell you that play is not instinctual at least at first but once you do it it's like the greatest feelings there is. You outran a a thing that was flying away from you, like the cavemen felt like capturing a buffalo
