The Tuesday Night Mets Club's relentless pursuit to support an Amazin' year of Tuesday Nights from all angles assembles this evening in section 138 (field level, center field) to take in tonight's tilt featuring lefty Framber Valdez opposing Carlos "my back is fine, it was just a thing, but thanks for asking" Carrasco. LGM, YGB etc

[BLOCKQUOTE]Jeff McNeil (hamstring) is back in the Mets' starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the Astros.



McNeil returns to the Mets' starting lineup after missing five consecutive contests due to right hamstring tightness. The versatile 30-year-old is back at second base and batting eighth on Tuesday evening against the Astros. He's gotten off to a phenomenal start this season at the dish, slashing .327/.386/.465 with four homers and two steals across 249 plate appearances.

When he gets on base he won't have to run hard because McCann can't hit the ball past the outfielders.

When the announcer doesn't know if you just got taken deep on a fastball or change, it's not a good sign, but we just need to bat.

Highest percentage of hard-hit balls isn't really a stat that does it for me when the denominator is "balls in play" rather than "plate appearances" or "at-bats."

The good news is that they're not going to lose this game tonight ... because at this pace there's no way it's going to be over before midnight.

The Astros certainly have the Mets number.



I demand a thorough investigation.

The Astros are a terrific team.



But the Mets should be able to punch back.

Yes, although there's [the stats showing] the exit velo of JDD's fly out topping two of the three Astro HRs tonight.

Re: Tuesday Night Mets IGT 6/28

Buck puts the DH in the lineup and Adonis Medina is now our cleanup hitter, due to lead off in the ninth.



I was hoping Alonso would make his first appearance at third. Consolation prize is a rare Escobar appearance at second.

Crowd was big, everyone was excited over the testimony (seemed like), demanding revenge from a shit showing last week, then-- can't turn the DP, Alonso seemed to dive over--a ball he should have got, and boom. Crowd out of it.



Ambler... the Ambler was supposed to stop by but didn't. Shreve couhed ot up big time, McCann sucked the big one, now I'm sitting on a delayed 7 local with a bunch of Boomhauers

Passenger struck by train at Grand Central. Not great.



Mets throughly outclassed by Astros now in 3 games.

It's a real "For want of a hammer" game. If Alonso wasn't holding the runner, that's a routine ground ball. If McNeil turned that double play, there's no runner. If Guillorme was at second, that double play is turned.



The next time a double-play grounder came to a similar spot, McNeil was covering second, but had to step out of the way when Lindor took it himself. I was afraid they might run down the tunnel to go raccoon chasing again.
