A deGrom game. Very far from this moment or so it seems to me.

deGrom, largest attendance of the season, a chance to set the tone for the series and the homestand, and it's Steve Cohen's birthday!

This will be the MLBN 'Showcase Game' tonight, meaning (mostly) nationwide coverage for those who may not have regular access to NYM broadcasts.

Anyone know what the crowd capacity % is up to this weekend? I may try a solo run on Sunday.

I mean, I bet mets.com/tickets will tell you if you can buy a ticket or not, unless you only want to go if it's mostly sold out?

kcmets Jun 11 2021 11:29 AM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Not a factor, I was just wondering if there was a set % and what it is.

I'm about 45 miles north of Columbus Circle and today is a 10, perhaps the nicest day of the year.

Snell's no-hitter broken up early tonight.

Alas, Snell still faces the minimum number of batters.

Frayed Knot Jun 11 2021 05:51 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

35 pitches thru 3 (good = <45) despite 5 of the 9 outs via Ks

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 05:54 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 06:04 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Shook off two straight signs before getting Tatis on the slider. I'll call this game, Son.

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 06:08 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

That's 20 2/3 consecutive scoreless innings. And counting.

Marshmallowmilkshake Jun 11 2021 06:25 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

bmfc1 Jun 11 2021 06:25 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Remember when Dom was good? Perhaps he shouldn't be an automatic start against LHP.

Frayed Knot Jun 11 2021 06:30 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

I remember Gary Carter doing that [1-2-3 DP] against Lamarr Hoyt in a 1st inning situation back in '85 ... and the Mets never came close to scoring again that night

I worried that Dom was on the pot when I saw that swing.



The guy had just walked two in a row, the last guy on four pitches.



Either make him throw a strike or swing like a mofo, but don't be giving him no checked swings.

Marshmallowmilkshake Jun 11 2021 06:42 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 07:06 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Lest it be unclear, this is one of the best offenses in the league.

dinosaur jesus Jun 11 2021 07:06 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Cruised through the sixth. But losing a little velocity?

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 07:09 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Eighty pitches and out?

Marshmallowmilkshake Jun 11 2021 07:09 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Looks like he just went into the clubhouse.

dinosaur jesus Jun 11 2021 07:10 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Either he's got some trouble with stamina or they're still being careful.

bmfc1 Jun 11 2021 07:10 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Luis after the game: "it was humid", "he was really amp-ed with up the big crowd"; "running the bases took a lot of him".

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 07:11 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Good news is ... two games off around two blowouts, and the best of the Mets bullpen should all be on deck.

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 07:13 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Caratini, there's nobody on base. Get that hand out of there.

Important questions as deGrom remains on track for his third Cy Young award: Is he the MVP? Will he end the year hitting .300?

Edgy MD Jun 11 2021 07:40 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

If the season ended today, of course he's the MVP. But right now, I'm just worried about the gamey game.

kcmets Jun 11 2021 07:45 PM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

deGrom = right flexor tendinitis.

That's one. Man, Tatis stays far off the plate. You can't come up and in on him. I think Keith has about 15 words left in his throat. Let's get this done.

Just got back from Citi, where we caught our first live ball in two years, from Section 102, Field Level. (Vaccinated!) It was electric. It was crowd-started two-strike clapping, stranger-high-fiving electric. It was Gooden-in-1985, Pedro-in-2005, Harvey-Day-times-ten electric. Until Jake got pulled. Then it got quiet. Then it got tense, even mildly testy. Chatted up an old usher while waiting to reenter our section following a mid-Castro beer run, and he was all, "I bet Ronnie and Keith are going BONKERS right now." I didn't disagree. Then some skittish moments... and then, man, does the home crowd welcome Diaz these days. All games should start with Jake and end with "Narco"-- preferably while dancing with your amped-up kid (or a borrowed one)-- and silly, silly sliders/absurdly-fast high fastballs.

Chatted up an old usher while waiting to reenter our section following a mid-Castro beer run, and he was all, "I bet Ronnie and Keith are going BONKERS right now." I didn't disagree. Only Keith, no Ronnie last night ... and not really. The thing was, they could see a dugout discussion with the trainer prior to JdG disappearing into the clubhouse. iow, it wasn't the usual handshakes/pat on the ass/"you're done" kind of transition so they knew, or at least suspected, that something else was up. ... and then, man, does the home crowd welcome Diaz these days. All games should start with Jake and end with "Narco"-- preferably while dancing with your amped-up kid (or a borrowed one)-- and silly, silly sliders/absurdly-fast high fastballs. Yeah, lost in all the pre-, during-, and post-game JdG drama, was how efficiently on point Diaz was, and for the most part has been all season. Coming in for a four-out save with just a one-run lead and inheriting maybe the league's fastest runner on 1st (whoops, now he's on 2nd), he closed it out facing (as it turned out) five hitters with a minimum of added angst. And not just any five hitters but 1 thru 5 in a tough lineup including two top stars in Tatis & Machado, plus three more than decent hitters Pham, Croenworth & Hosmer, all of whom qualify (at least in this era) as very tough-to-K guys. Hosmer, in particular, gave him a tough battle by fouling off some bastard pitches. The result was a quite tidy: five guys, four outs, two Ks, 16 pitches, two fair balls. All of which, btw, only partially makes up for what is a truly questionable haircut choice by our closer.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2021 05:51 AM Re: IGT Padres at Mets June 11 2021 7:10 PM

Hosmer was smiling through the whole at-bat. I thought he knew something Diaz and I did not, and I was terrified.
