Is this the World Series? No (not yet?), it's inter-league play as the Blue Jays come to Queens as the Mets start an 11-game homestand. Tylor Megill goes for the Mets and Steven Matz (LHP, but you knew that) goes for Toronto. Cue the tribute video!

Matz'll get the scoreboard montage treatment, right?

Fifteen different pouty expressions after giving up five runs in the third.

Ooooh, I'm thinking with a musical accompaniment of "I Just Died in Your Arms Tonight."

Maybe they'll just show footage of Grandpa Matz.

No McNeil who has a left leg that is "fatigued" (remember that he left Wednesday's game early). I thought that Pillar might get a start against a LHP.

In his comment before the game, Rojas mentioned that he's intending to start Pillar against tomorrow's lefty.

Odd but Matz has changed his style. Usually waits to have a our-run lead before doing this stuff. #efficiency

They can start an Italian-American Hall of Fame just with the folks in attendance tonight.

Gary just called Megill "Miguel."

Two hits through five against a top offensive club. No matter what you call him, that's good stuff.

Terrific ovation from a Friday-night crowd for Megilla.

Re: IGT 07/23 - TOR @ NYM - Tylor, Get the Feeling Again

A four-pitch sixth thanks to some rangey-assed catches.



Megill may well be out-doing his last start.

What a catch by Conforto!

Guy is as big as Herman Munster and they're pulling him after 78 pitches.



I think Rojas may be managing for that Atlanta series.

Re: IGT 07/23 - TOR @ NYM - Tylor, Get the Feeling Again

Rojas again managing stupidly by pulling Megill with 78 pitches through 6 scoreless innings. This bullpen is suspect and should be used as little as possible.

It takes some adjusting to accept that neither Guerror, Biggio, nor Bichette plays the same position as their dads.

He's using at least one RP that he can avoid using by giving Tylor another inning.

Lugo/May/Diaz--sounds good but two of three are coming off bad outings. Why not let the kid start the 7th?

Re: IGT 07/23 - TOR @ NYM - Tylor, Get the Feeling Again

As I said, I suspect he wants him as fresh as can be for the Atlanta series.

Boy, when Alonso hit 'em, they stay hit. That baseball probably has a dent in it. More Diaz-proofing.

Nice catch by Smith, but wish they were able to switch in Pillar when he pinch-hit.
