Re: IGT 7/9/2022: MIA@NYM — Win One for 17

I'd like to take a moment to fondly recall the days when Jeff McNeil was deployed at third, in addition to second, left, and right. I'd like to see the answer to the question "Who sits today — Canha, Guillorme, or McNeil?" to occasionally be "Escobar."

Re: IGT 7/9/2022: MIA@NYM — Win One for 17

Catcher interference ultimately saved a run for the Mets as Carrasco extricates himself from a bases loaded jam with a strikeout and double play.



Now let's bust out some lumber (like it's 1986).

I don't think he has to do anything necessarily wrong. If the batter is batting from a legal position in the batter's box, it's generally the catcher's job to stay out his way.

Re: IGT 7/9/2022: MIA@NYM — Win One for 17

It flicked the very edge of his bat. Imperceptibly, but I guess it's the ump's job to perceive things like that.

Re: IGT 7/9/2022: MIA@NYM — Win One for 17

Seven ways to reach base:
[list=1]

  • [*]hit,

  • [*]walk,

  • [*]error,

  • [*]fielders' choice,

  • [*]hit by pitch,

  • [*]dropped third strike, and

  • [*]defensive interference

    He's back on base. He also seems like he'll fall over if anybody gets too close to him. He grabs fielders' shoulders for balance as he positions himself on the base.

    Two guys up. Two guys go down flailing ineptly at sliders a foot or maybe more off the plate.

    That slider to strike out J.D. was wicked. Sometimes you just have to tip your cap.

    A inning late with the thought, but maybe one answer to that wipeout slider Bass was throwing against righties in the ninth would have been to send Smith up for Davis.

    I mean fir the Mets it was a bad one.



    The had what 5 hits in 10 Innings.



    They had a lead the bullpen surrendered twice.



    Two guys got hurt.



    They bunted a guy to 3rd and he stayed there.



    We made a daring but costly mistake in the 10th, and it should have been much worse.



    But with ATL and PHL with wins in the banks, and down to our last out twice, we pulled the dumb thing out on 3 even worse mistakes by the other guys... 4 if you count the pitcher making 2 goofs on the last play.



    We played a team that's demonstrated over and over they have adequate or better pitching most nights, a few tough outs who are also clutch, but simply cannot execute, and almost lost again

    Just based on the games they've played, against the Mets only--and all the little fuckups and blown-up umpire challenges--and knowing there was strife behind the scenes. And absolutely wasting a brilliant season from Alcantra, and promising guys elsewhere, how does Mattingly keep his job?

    Yeah, I got nothing against Donnie B. He hasn't pissed in public in a few decades, but I watch this Marlin team year in and year out and I don't get how he keeps employed.



    I know I've been banging this drum a lot, but during this series, I haven't been able to get over how comically fundamentally flawed Aguilar is. How does he hold a spot on a developing team? How does any team let him play the field? How do they put him in the field (once this series and twice the last one) and DH Garrett Cooper, who has to better firstbaseman simply by virtue of having played Lou Gehrig in the movies?
