We're going to lose a series eventually ... but this would not be a good place to start.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

Right, especially with a side trip to St Lou coming tomorrow.



(I don't really know what the Mets record is in St Lou the last ten years

but I'm guessing it's generally not a cake walk)

And he hears me, steals third, and jogs home on the overthrow.

Seventy-eight pitches and 55 of them for strikes, and he's just put Walker behind him.



You'd send him out for the seventh, right?

Megill to Bumgarner: Suck it old man, I can go more than five!



Or at least that's what I think he said, I'm not a very good lip-reader.

Jankowski's first Mets rib-eye via a bases loaded walk.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

Great to have another run home with the bases loaded and one out, but I'm guessing the long layover is gonna get Megilla pulled.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

Canha should have been pulled for Nimmini.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

I'm OK sticking with Jankowski there. Nimmo would be the logical choice if you were, but ...

- best shot at avoiding the GiDP

- Buck talked about Covid guys (Nimmo) needing extra rest first week back

- weaken your defense with a switch

- save Nimmo for maybe a more important AB later

The bags-loaded HBP ... a couple years ago that was our top offensive weapon.

Marte HBP, it's almost funny.



But it nets another run.

The Rudi Stein Strategy has it's ups and downs.



I was OK with Janky, too. Canha, not so much.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

Okay, 2-run lead with 2 innings to go. Golf claps for Megill. Does Lugo go back out for the 8th? That's been Buck's pattern.

Breathing room tastes good. And yes, Buck sends Lugo back out, not afraid of the dreaded 'up-down'.

Re: IGT 04/24 - NYM @ ARI

Isn't it really a "down-up"?



I'd love to see the data behind inning breaks being a concern — with regard to pitcher effectiveness or pitcher health.



I'd never heard of either version of the term until Luis Rojas.

Who gets the 9th? Let Lugo finish it, or…Mets debut for Yoan Lopez?

Also, Nimmo coming in as a defensive replacement, but in center and not left is…curious.

For the second straight day, SNY app was not showing the broadcast. Yesterday they tweeted out an apology and said they're working on it. No mention of it today. So that's some crapola. I had to endure the Arizona broadcast team for two days. They're pretty bad.
