IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Mets managers a gogo today. Cookie was terrific in his first start. Hoping for the best. LGM.

Frayed Knot Apr 21 2022 07:28 AM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Riding on this game is the difference between an impressive (3-1) series win against a top opponent vs a disappointing split after a hot (2-0) start.

ashie62 Apr 21 2022 08:40 AM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

You betcha. Would love to have Cookie pitch terrific again.

Too much Guillorme. He's not hitting. I know he's got the best 2B glove but I want to see JD or Dom in the hitting order over Luis. Especially with Marte getting a breather. OE: Didn't notice that he's playing SS to spell Lindor. Fine, he's your backup SS, but it's still too much Guillorme early.

Delroy Lindor pours himself a cup of Coca-Cola for a 1-0 lead.

Giants tie it as Keith correctly (but after the fact) calls out the Mets on their defensive positioning.

First as a Met. Making it the most important of his career.

Lefty Specialist Apr 21 2022 11:49 AM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Nice small ball for an extra run.

Willets Point Apr 21 2022 12:00 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Lindor is getting designated hits!

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 12:03 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

If we're scoring in an arithmetic sequence, having scored one in the first and two in the second, we can be expected to score three in the third. If we're scoring in a geometric sequence, having scored one in the first and two in the second, we can be expected to score four in the third.

Crunchy base-hit goodness!

Fman99 Apr 21 2022 12:09 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Mark Canha with the two out knock! Just the kind of moment that the 2021 Mets would have shoved up their own keesters.

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 12:19 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Maybe some little-known lefthanded-hitting infielder kidnapped Guillorme, showed up at the park the next day, and took his job, claiming that he was Luís without a beard.

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 12:33 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Lindor as a DH has been an effective experiment. It's great to see a hard hit ball up the middle scooting through again. That may be, in part, a product of the Mets finally countering the shift with bunts and slaps the other way.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 21 2022 12:46 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Canha is making me say to myself, "Hey, maybe this guy is going to be a lot better than I thought he would be." I recall, almost forty years ago, thinking the same thing about Howard Johnson. It's early yet, but it's a nice thought.

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 12:48 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

When Gary throws it to the studio for an update, MLB.tv viewers don't get the report along with the SNY audience. We get five or 10 seconds of silence, while the cameras stay with the game. But just now, Gary threw it to Sal in the studio, and didn't kill his own mic, and you could clearly hear him stuffing a cherry blintz in his mouth, saying, "WHY are we showing Yankee highlights?"

Lefty Specialist Apr 21 2022 12:51 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Carrasco crisply working through the Giant lineup. Only 72 pitches thru 6.

Fman99 Apr 21 2022 12:58 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

As positive as my experience has been so far with the SNY App, I will continue to follow weekday matinees on XM as I find it easier to multitask with just audio, plus I enjoy the dulcet tones of Mr. Rose with the call.

kcmets Apr 21 2022 01:08 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Cookie cruising, I'm so happy I could pee.

kcmets Apr 21 2022 01:35 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Wayne Kirby still looking like he swallowed a walrus, if not actually looking walrus-y.

Frayed Knot Apr 21 2022 01:38 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Was Nido tagging?!?!

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 01:39 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Mets have one run home in the eighth, but with better baserunning, they could have had three.

Frayed Knot Apr 21 2022 01:41 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Shoulda scored more than once in that frame. Not Nido's finest hour.

Fman99 Apr 21 2022 01:46 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

I love the Diaz trumpet music. That's just a sharp entrance theme.

A day game, a 'W', a series win, ... and sub-3:00 !!

Lefty Specialist Apr 21 2022 02:15 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

3 of 4 from a team that came in 7-2 and won 107 games last year has to make you feel good. Your reward? A weekend in the desert with a crappy team you should win another series against. Onward.

Edgy MD Apr 21 2022 03:02 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Plus good crowds in crappy weather, no injuries, a bullpen that has been judiciously used, and tributes during the series to Tom Seaver, Jackie Robinson, Gil Hodges, and Jay Horwitz.

Lefty Specialist Apr 21 2022 03:49 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

The whipped and beaten Mets fan in me says, "So what's going to go wrong now?" I remember 2018 and the 11-1 start.

Frayed Knot Apr 21 2022 05:32 PM Re: IGT 4/21 Gaydame with Cookie & the Committee

Yeah, and while it's WAAAAY too early to start fretting over such things, this nascent season does bear some resemblance to last when the NYM were on top as the only .500+ team but failed to ever put enough distance between themselves and the stragglers and so were ripe for being picked off and passed when the inevitable rough patches hit.

He just sounds blintzy. He's definitely eating something.

He wouldn't be eating a blintz. Passover isn't over yet. Later

The important thing is that Gary also hates the MFYs
