Hammer down, boys. Chance to put a little distance between the Metropolitans and their pursuers.

Mets are 8-1 in Game 1 of doubleheaders this year, winning the last 6 in a row.

I'm a little jazzed for these next three games, I think I get wired because there's no Metsies until next Friday after tomorrow.

Without checking, I think they've also lost 6 Game 2's in a row.

I was gonna make a joke about old fogey announcers not knowing what 'AR' is, but I'm older than Anthony Recker.

I'm falling in love with Jonathan Villar, and I don't care who knows it.

Lindor doesn't like the boos, who does?, but perhaps a big hit while the game is in the balance would be nice.

Gwreck Jul 10 2021 03:45 PM Re: IGT 07/10 - PIT at NYM - Game 1

One run deficit at the end of the 5th is nothing to worry about. Lots of time left in the game. Wait, what's that you say? We're once again subjected to idiotic rule changes? This is intolerable.

Whatever you think about the seven inning rule, it's not unfair. It applies just the same to both teams and if the Mets were to take the lead in the 6th or 7th, the Pirates would feel shortchanged. Also, the rule wasn't instituted in mid-season. FWIW, I'm not a fan of it either.

Edgy MD Jul 10 2021 03:58 PM Re: IGT 07/10 - PIT at NYM - Game 1

A journeyman named John Nogowski finally getting a break with Pittburgh and flourishing while wearing #69 is the stuff of made-for-TV movies.

It is absolutely unfair.



First, because of competitive imbalance: the Mets have had to play more short games than other teams in the division/league.



Second, because it privileges the weaker team. Marcus Stroman does not come out of a game in the 5th inning down 1 having thrown 68 pitches if it's a full-length game.



Smaller sample sizes lead to more random outcomes and short games allow weaker teams more chances to win. It is demonstrably and inarguably unfair to play by different rules at random points in the season.

Kevin Pillar has "Fat Bottomed Girls" by Queen as his walk-up song. Not exactly politically correct.

You know what else? The automatic home run rule is unfair to teams who lack lkng-ball hitters And. ten foot high rims are unfair to guys of average height who can flat out ball.

batmagadanleadoff Jul 10 2021 05:32 PM Re: IGT 07/10 - PIT at NYM - Game 1

What does that have to do with anything that the Mets played more extra inning games than every other team? That doesn't make the rule unfair. They lost by four runs, not half a run! You act as if the Pirates wouldnt be permitted to score even more runs if there were two more innings. If there was such an urgency to score runs given less innings to play, maybe Rojax should've had his A lineup out there, with McNeil and Conforto. Maybe blame Lindor instead of the seven inning rule, who's been murdering the Mets on offense all year long.He bats at the top of the order and playe every single day and is hitting two fucking twenty. Maybe go to Loup or Diaz with only two bullpen innings to cover in a close game instead of someone much less reliable.
