A team that (on paper) it looks like they have a chance against. But these are the Mets, so hold your breath. Later

Delayed. Poop

Stranding the leadoff single on 1st ... what a concept!!

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 06:46 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

And if Lindor had bunted the game would be tied.

[attachment=0]metsgame.png[/attachment] I asked a machine learning algorithm, CLIP Guided Diffusion, for a "Mets baseball game on Mercury" and gave it a shot of Citi Field to start with.. what, did you want to talk about the actual game?

So four good innings out of five for Hill on the hill. The one inning was pretty ugly but he did a decent job of at least limiting the damage. Now we just need some of those runs things I've heard so much about.

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 07:22 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

There is a glimmer of good news: we're into the Nats' bullpen

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 07:27 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Remember multi-run innings? How many games can you think of in August with more than one multi-run inning?

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 07:28 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Lindor is essentially this NYM era's version of Beltran ... except that he's not as smart a player.

Another non-definitive replay reversal.

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 07:51 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Hey here's a good idea, let's get three hit in a game we really need by a team mailing it in.

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:04 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

No hits in the game since the Baez homer in the fourth. Efficient!

Another PH appearance = another mound visit from the PC

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:10 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Let's see what angry McNeil can do here.

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:11 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Hey, he dropped one in! Not so much an angry hit, but whatever!

Yes, but the brains of the operation haven't caught up to the talent level yet. Now granted, Beltran was older when he came here but, unlike Lindor, he wasn't bunting with two outs and no one on base while passing up the opportunity to bunt in an earlier AB while leading off the inning when they were giving him one entire side of the infield. Instead he simply pulled the ball into the shift on the first pitch and was an easy out. Baez HR'd on the next pitch.

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 08:15 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

One bloop and three balls that never left the infield.

Marshmallowmilkshake Aug 27 2021 08:28 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

The damn Nationals aren't even trying to win, and we still can't beat them.

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 08:29 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

You can't go 9 innings vs a Nats pitching staff minus Scherzer, Strasberg, Corbin, Gio Gonzalez, and most of their relieving corps and tally one run and expect to compete for anything.

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:30 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Pinch-run Stro' for Pete.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 27 2021 08:30 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

We got this

Frayed Knot Aug 27 2021 08:30 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

I'd normally consider the walk to be a good thing but getting the leadoff guy on seems to decrease our odds of scoring.

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:31 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Lindor chasing 1-0 is eeeevil.

Marshmallowmilkshake Aug 27 2021 08:32 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Lindor swinging at pitches at his ankles.

Pathetic Four hits.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 27 2021 08:35 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

By got this, I meant, got shit

Marshmallowmilkshake Aug 27 2021 08:35 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Incredible.

Edgy MD Aug 27 2021 08:36 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

And that's that. That last pitch was on the corner, but one of only two strikes Finnegan threw the whole inning.

bmfc1 Aug 27 2021 08:39 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

My math might be off but since August 1, when the Mets were in 1st and traded at Top 10 prospect for a guy who is a FA--the same guy that just hit into the game-ending DP, the Mets are 6 and 18 while WSH, which traded many of it's good players and gave up for the year, is 6 and 16. Brilliant work by Sandy, Zack and Luis. Kudos!

The Hot Corner Aug 27 2021 08:49 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

Well, the Mets are supposed to make their move now, because they are facing the weaker teams in the division. Maybe, we need to face up to the possibility that the Mets are one of the weaker teams in the division.

Fman99 Aug 27 2021 09:49 PM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

I was out doing a bunch of things prescribed to me by my activities coordinator, that I thought would be mostly dull and painful, except, I brought a bunch of booze with me, and it spared me from watching the last half of this fucking debacle.

ashie62 Aug 28 2021 04:49 AM Re: IGT 08/27 - WSH at NYM - The Show Must Go On

This is all like a very cheesy horror flic The rest of the league hits Espino.
