Another 9:45 start, Bassitt opposes RHP Logan Webb, who's 5-1, 3.54-- or about the Giants' best guy out there. Zimmo Marte Lindor Alonso McNeil Escobar Canha DoSmith DH Nido They need to stop screwing over Guillorme

I'm waiting for my JD Davis catching experiment to launch.

Is Guillorme the 'emergency catcher' or has been lobbying to try?

vtmet7 May 24 2022 05:53 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Is Guillorme the 'emergency catcher' or has been lobbying to try? is this what you referring to (trying to make it sound like Omar said it): He said Guillorme has told him he's even ready to step in as catcher in an emergency situation, if needed. Showalter, who had significant time to study his new players this past offseason during the owners' lockout, said he asked around about Guillorme and the infielder has been “as advertised.” Added Francisco Lindor of Guillorme's all-around impact on the Mets: “Every team needs a player like that.” https://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/mets/ny-luis-guillorme-super-utility-infielder-20220524-ul7imeqcf5czvdl5pnpmm6dvci-story.html

Maybe, I don't read the rags much so probably heard it on radio or tv.

roger_that May 24 2022 06:41 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

I always wonder why more utility infielders DON'T offer themselves as emergency catchers. Emergencies rarely arise, you can't do it poorly enough to catch a lot of blame for screwing the pooch, and it's a certain kind of insurance against getting sent down, traded, DFAed. Where's the downside?

Speaking of Giants, these uniforms are a giant mess. Looks like the color of a salmon's asshole.

Edgy MD May 24 2022 07:55 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

First two outs come chasing garbage outside the zone. As for myself, I can't tell one piscine anus from another. Never could.

Edgy MD May 24 2022 07:56 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Same pitch ultimately gets three different guys chasing for strike three.

McNeil's still red hot on defense.

nymr83 May 24 2022 08:58 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

This ump has a generous strikezone

Edgy MD May 24 2022 09:01 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

McNeil should have been running on 3-2.

Edgy MD May 24 2022 09:09 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

McNeil just (probably) saved a run by playing a carom neatly off the right field wall ... as a secondbaseman.

I was just about to turn in and Lindor cuts the deficit in half Or hits a 2 run Homer anyway

Edgy MD May 24 2022 10:29 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Mets get the foist two on in the eighth.

Edgy MD May 24 2022 10:31 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

I'd send Guillorme up for Cahna. This dude is a tough draw for righties. And as I type, Cahna gets a hit to load the bases and bring up the tying run with no out.

Edgy MD May 24 2022 10:32 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Sorta think Rodriguez should have been in vs Pederson

Gwreck May 24 2022 11:12 PM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Third pitch to Estrada was strike 3. This inning should've been long over.

I just watched Mets Fast Forward. They put up 7 runs in the 8th to go ahead and I look down at the clock and it's only 6:35 so I knew some drama was still going to be served. Crazy game. Pederson win 8 RBI? Nuts. #lgm #ygb #ymdyf

Frayed Knot May 25 2022 05:15 AM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

Are you effin' kidding me!?! Cashed it in at 8-2 and I'm not sure I could have stayed up through that game even if it were a 7:10 start. Also not sure whether to take solace in the comeback or cry over the way they lost it.

Methead May 25 2022 08:25 AM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

I've never liked that Pederson fella. I turned the game off after his 2nd homer. Pretty encouraging that this team has the ability to fight their way back into games. All the best Mets seasons I can remember have always had that feel.

Edgy MD May 25 2022 09:58 AM Re: Threading In The Game 5/24 @SFG

So, that play in the eighth inning, when Lindor couldn't quite field the grounder by Luis Gonzalez and lay the tag on the Thairo ... there seems to be two mistakes. 1) McNeil recovered the ball, and immediately looked to freeze the lead runner at third (Brandon Crawford), not realizing he still had a force at second. 2) Despite that, he seemed to inadvertantly touch second anyhow, but the Mets dugout didn't call for a review. This would have been the third out of the inning, and while they eventually got the third out on the next batter when Ottovino struck out Kevin Padlo, it sure would have been nice to have the guy with 26 plate appearances leading off the ninth, with Joc Pederson one batter further away, and Ottovino still not yet deployed.
