IGT 8/2 The return of Jake deGrom may it be a healthy one

It has been over a year. I've heard the pitch count is about 75.



Jake misses Soto and Bell



Looking for a 27 pitch complete game.



Again, this one looks too easy.

this is the kind of game the mets get no-hit in, isn't it? at least... the old mets. no clue about these new mets.

IIRC a pitcher named John Cristenson(SP?) came off the IL (it was the DL in those days), shut out the Mets and went back on the DL. I think it was for one of the Pennsylvania teams. I've tried to suppress the memory.

I had to go look up Abbott.

Turns 27 next month but is still a rookie (might still be next year as well)2nd round pick by Cubs in 2017 from Loyola Marymount University

Waiver pick up from the Cubs org last winter.

7 games last season, 1 start

This will be his 4th appearance and 1st start this year.

First game I've seen on my laptop, tonight. Tell you the truth, I deliberately didn't subscribe to MLB.TV because I didn't want the temptation to sit in front of the TV every night, just catch the Marlins (and Rays, if there was an opponent I was interested in) plus ESPN games and the like. But this is a cool bonus, what with deGrom going and all.

So we stop the game for a mound conference, then one pitch later stop it again for a pitching change.

So that'll be about 4 to 5 minutes where ONE pitch is thrown.
