wow...I realize people love Luis G, but he has no business batting leadoff...He's scored less than 26% of the time that he's gotten to first base on his career...

Frayed Knot May 28 2022 02:09 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

But he's getting on base 41% of the time this season.

well, that's up to Marte, Lindor and Alonso more than Guillorme..

wow...I realize people love Luis G, but he has no business batting leadoff...He's scored less than 26% of the time that he's gotten to first base on his career... That's because he usually bats 7th or 8th. Leadoff batters maybe have a little bit more baserunning skill than most, but mostly they're helped by having good hitters behind them. Guillorme isn't fast, but he's smart. It's not an awful choice. That being said, I would have put McNeil in that spot. Bracing myself for hearing "Guillermo" all night from the jamokes in the booth. It's already started.

Wow!, McSquirrel was quick inside on that pitch.

I might be overstating this but in previous years when Jeff took two pitches that he thought were outside of the strike zone but called a strike, he would have mentally checked out of the AB. Not so, this year.

Chad ochoseis May 28 2022 06:45 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Alonso, setting the table for McNeil.

Yep. And McNeil hitting that on 1-2 came on the heels of Alonso dunking an 0-2 to short center and Lindor working out a walk from 0-2. None of that happened much last year.

It's amazing how much more I enjoy 2022 McNeil vs. 2021 McNeil.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 28 2022 06:53 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Great too that they did all that immediately following a crap inning.-- and while the Phil's had to stand in a heavy rain. It's already stopped raining here

Frayed Knot May 28 2022 06:58 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Minor point, but they got those key hits & walks despite Eflin seemingly getting the call on every borderline pitch that inning.

kcmets May 28 2022 07:04 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Guillorme 3-3

Frayed Knot May 28 2022 07:05 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Tough to complain when your leadoff hitter du jour is 3/3 in getting on base by the 5th inning.

What was better, Schwarber missing the fly ball or smacking his CF in the face with his glove in the process?

A lot of platitudes, generalizations, meaningless observations. "It's tough when you lose...if you've got one pitch that no one can hit, keep throwing it" sort of thing. Or have I been spoiled by good announcing?

Jean Segura's never played in the post-season "You don't want to be on that list" Ya think? How do they figger it's desirable to play in the post-season? "I figured out something about third to first base--it's very level" Have these guys never considered shutting up if they have nothing to say?

Nice job by Girardi, removing his pitcher with 2 outs, none on, down 6 to get a lefty in to face Mazeika. Jackass.

Nice to have the series 'W' heading into the Wheeler game. At worst you still take two of three and stealing tomorrow's game would make it extra sweet against a division opponent.

I'm not sure who you're quoting, but I was just joking. It was clearly a terrible decision — certainly the worst I've seen this year out of Chelsea, and perhaps ever. I think Tylor Megill's mom should be hired.

Frayed Knot May 28 2022 08:55 PM Re: IGT 05/28 - Phillies at Metropolitans - All Day and All of the Night

Not quoting anyone one person specifically, but some form of that quote has been used as an all-purpose rationale in favor of replay reviews for decades now. My point being that judging the justification for the rule on that standard alone is wildly misleading as it ignores so many downsides.

Through the first seven innings, this lineup has been serious af. Replace Smith with Nimmo (and shuffle positions accordingly for defense) and this is the best Mets lineup. Guillorme is out hitting Smith and Davis right now and may just be better than either of them. of course, if the DH spot is the one that is 'open' you might expect Plummer or Magnum or Vientos to be the best option in the organization right now if defense doesnt matter.
