https://www.mlb.com/gameday/marlins-vs-mets/2022/07/07/662508#game_state=preview,lock_state=preview,game_tab=,game=662508 Oh look, it's the Marlins again. They are playing them as frequently as they do in ST. Castano pitched well against the Mets on June 28. JD will likely start against the LHP and it's time for him to get it going.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 07:36 AM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I have no faith in you, Trevor. Prove me wrong. Giving up 3 runs in 3 2/3 or some such isn't going to cut it.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jul 07 2022 08:17 AM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I gotta say, again, that I was WERRIED that the Mets had lost a little something when we first encountered the Marlins, only to be pleasingly astonished at how shitty they were at baseball, and that was a gift that kept us from going into this series as a second place team. We can't count on the other teams being shittier than us all time though. Sometimes you have play well too, and I think that's gotta be the message coming off a way-too-hairy Reds series.

kcmets Jul 07 2022 08:45 AM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Like the Braves, the Fish are 7-3 in their last ten games. They kinda woke up since we last saw them. I think they got Ohtani'd yesterday though.

Mets will soon trade in Trevor Williams SP for Jake deGrom SP. Jake should be up soon.

kcmets Jul 07 2022 01:55 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Can't see him having much trade value. They'd have to throw in a big bag of Francisco's designer cleats to sweeten the deal or something.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 02:23 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

He probably just means swapped into the rotation. Depending on potential upcoming deals, Williams is likely to remain in the bullpen if and when he's no longer starting. If the Mets can actually field a deGrom-Scherzer-[CROSSOUT]Williams[/CROSSOUT]Walker-Carrasco-Peterson rotation, even for a few weeks, it'll be hard to acquire a pitcher good enough to break that up. A veteran with a CV, even if he's now merely on a par with Peterson, would still have the juice to bump him to the bullpen, though. And then we'd have Rockin' Doc's second lefty. Peterson's next start is going to be important to the rest of his season.

Benjamin Grimm Jul 07 2022 02:31 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I think you mean "Walker" in that third paragraph instead of "Williams"?

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 02:32 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Oh, yah.

Fman99 Jul 07 2022 05:18 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Clean first inning, at least.

ashie62 Jul 07 2022 05:40 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Trevor with 2 clean innings. Would it make sense for Escobar to give up hitting leftie? Don't know.

roger_that Jul 07 2022 05:53 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jul 07 2022 05:56 PM

Rojas stretches a single into a double, sprinting out of the box. Kept his eyes on Marte the whole time, too.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 05:55 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I'm not comfortable seeing the Marlins in a uniform I don't hate. Also, nice pick by Lindor, but his lack of urgency almost let Berti beat that out.

Frayed Knot Jul 07 2022 05:56 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Small point, but Pete does those flios to the pitcher quite well. Usually on target, leads them well, minimal drama.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 06:07 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Zimmo, nice hitting.

roger_that Jul 07 2022 06:07 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Good Nimmo at bat. Works him for a hustle double, RBI

roger_that Jul 07 2022 06:12 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Miami announcers ripping Rojas for trying to nail Lindor at 1B, but a throw on target would have nabbed him. Single, E-6, no RBi but a run scores

One over the minimum for T.W. and on an efficient pitch count even with his share of K's

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 06:27 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Perfectly placed "bunt" single for Canha.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 06:30 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

McNeil going against the shift again. They never learn.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 06:31 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Berti's throwing does not match his wheels.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jul 07 2022 06:32 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

McCann whips it out

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 06:33 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

McCann actually can! Yowza!

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 06:33 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

That shift was so extreme they were practically giving a single on a ball to the left side. Then J.D. with a more traditional hit throught the left side. Then McCann crushes one and just like that the Mets are piling on.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 06:33 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

McCann punched that pitch in the face.

kcmets Jul 07 2022 06:34 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

That was a McBlast!

roger_that Jul 07 2022 06:39 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Castano's a low-K pitcher, Nimmo a low-K batter, he got him struck out twice tonight.

roger_that Jul 07 2022 06:45 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jul 07 2022 06:46 PM

Great grab by Nimmo in dead center, warning track. Catch of the day. He's been at a Gold Glove level all year.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 06:45 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Jesús Sánchez was so delighted by that catch that he almost clapped.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 06:46 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

One thing about Nimmo, he's a much better centerfielder than he used to be, and he's worked hard at it.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 06:50 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Jimmy Yacabonis sounds like a made man in the Mob.

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:00 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

The extreme shift against McNeil is crazy. Plus it allows Escobar to get a massive walking lead at third base. McNeil draws a walk to load the bases for J.D. Davis with a chance to blow this game completely open.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 07:00 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Yacabonis sleeping with the Fish.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jul 07 2022 07:01 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

JDDAVIS TRADE VALUE±++++++++++++

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:01 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

[BIGPURPLE]Grand Kaboom for Davis!!!![/BIGPURPLE]

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 07:01 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I think J.D. just earned himself a Yaca-bonus.

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:02 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

That's how you blow a game open.

kcmets Jul 07 2022 07:02 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I think JD just upped his trade value! lol...

Frayed Knot Jul 07 2022 07:03 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

JDD gets a Jack-a-Bonus off of Yacabonis.

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 07:10 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Uacabonis really wearing it this inning. No one's coming to help you, Jimmy.

nymr83 Jul 07 2022 07:12 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Batting Practice has been fun tonight! anyone know what time the game starts?

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:15 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Meanwhile, Scherzer is probably thinking, "Where the hell were these bats on Tuesday."

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:20 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Trevor Williams has a one hit shutout through 6 inninigs. That is at the top of the list for lines I never thought I would type.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 07:22 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

We gots to get some Ender Inciarte action.

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:23 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Berti's arm looks a lot better at shortstop than it does in left field.

He got lifted with a no-hitter after six innings on the second day of the season back in 2018. He's nobody's first choice, but I think he's shown us that he can pitch.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jul 07 2022 07:31 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

These Marlins... they suck!

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:34 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

He's earned some respect with his fine performance tonight. He's likely done for night after 7 great innings. Go Trevor! Go, Trevor!

Lefty Specialist Jul 07 2022 07:34 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Boy, a slow guy trying to take the extra base on Marte's arm down 10-0 is purrrrty stupid. Job well done, Trevor. I'm sure you found my lack of faith disturbing.

The Hot Corner Jul 07 2022 07:37 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

J.D. Davis needs a triple for the cycle. Go for it J.D.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 07:50 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Give Smith a low-leverage inning for the ninth?

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 07:52 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

St. Loo and Atlanta tied at one, top of the eighth.

Ceetar Jul 07 2022 07:53 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

I like home runs.

Edgy MD Jul 07 2022 07:58 PM Re: IGT 07/07 - Marlins at Mets

Two on and two out for St. Louis.
