Braves just suck

[tweet]https://twitter.com/AnthonyDiComo/status/1559270184732565514[/tweet] Nido on COVID IL, Guillorme on regular IL. Their spots are taken by C Michael Perez and INF Deven Marrero (righty batter and thrower).

Tough matchup for sure We shall overcome

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 05:12 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

No Mets pitcher has exceeded 13 wins since Jacob deGrom won 15 in 2017.

Wins as an individual statistic suck. only counting METS WINS!

Fman99 Aug 15 2022 05:58 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Dumb challenge by ATL. I love that the Mets almost never make those.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 06:02 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Even with the Mets doing little offensively thru those first two innings, it still took Strider right about three innings worth of pitches to get there.

Lefty Specialist Aug 15 2022 06:06 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Carrasco getting shelled here.

Yeah, but he'd stay in there for 25 innings, just to back up the snide comments (about the Mets were lucky and getting all the calls)he made after the last series and the stuff he took for saying them. Later

Gary and Keith spending too much time singing Mets praises

ashie62 Aug 15 2022 06:14 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Rainout!

Lefty Specialist Aug 15 2022 06:15 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Coulod be worse. Could be raining.

Fman99 Aug 15 2022 06:15 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

I think maybe I'm rooting for a rainout now

ashie62 Aug 15 2022 06:17 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Carrasco and Strider should be done. That might help

Fman99 Aug 15 2022 06:25 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Williams went 2 yesterday so likely Medina will be the long guy, should things resume

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 06:26 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

This night isn't ending anytime soon.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 07:02 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Anyone hear a possible time to resume play? There really wasn't a big rain event scheduled for this evening.

Fman99 Aug 15 2022 07:03 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

They were about to show a resume time on the crawl but cut to commercial. I think they're about to tell us, on the next break.

Ugh. Why would they trot Cookie out there after an hour's rain delay? He went into the tunnel grasping his side. CMON BUCK

Lefty Specialist Aug 15 2022 07:31 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Questionable to send him back out there, but here we are.

Marshmallowmilkshake Aug 15 2022 07:36 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Any idea when Tylor is coming back?

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 07:51 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

They have glowing tomahawks now?

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 07:53 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

That was a weird play on Grissom at third. I figure it's the shortstop or pitcher I'd want covering there over the catcher. I assume the shortstop was mostly out of range due to the shift and was probably moving to cover second.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 07:56 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

And the non-out sets up the next run.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 07:59 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

As Run #5 scores, Keith declares "The Purloined Letter" to be one of his favorite short stories.

ashie62 Aug 15 2022 08:03 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Bedtime

kcmets Aug 15 2022 08:10 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

McNutty wheels out a triple and then scores. Chip away. Or something.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 08:12 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

The catcher covering 3rd on that play is common. It was on a similar play a bunch of years ago on Opening Day when a head first sliding Jeter had his shoulder meet a catcher shin guard which earned him the Opening month of the season off. Lindor was headed towards 2nd though he probably shouldn't have been. Actually wasn't a real smart play with two outs and he's scoring from 2nd or 3rd on the subsequent hit so it didn't really matter.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 08:16 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Escobar is getting beaucoup chances at third. It tend to watch him play like he's on borrowed time and each play looks like the one that might break him. Keith seems to agree.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 08:20 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Keith's weird, jocky contempt for Álex Torres' headgear lives on.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 08:23 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Td'A still leads the league in glove-pointing to his pitcher after he thinks he made a good pitch regardless of whether or not they got the result.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 08:33 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

7-1 bottom of sixth with no out and two runners on. Looks like a rout is on the horizon...

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 08:41 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

So this isn't going well.

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 08:48 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

If you're going to not hit, and you're going to not pitch, and you're going to not field ... do them all on the same day. It still only counts for one.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 08:48 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

d'Arnaud with the field goal!

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 09:01 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Jeff McNeil so far looking like the only Schaefer drinker today. Three-for-three.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 09:06 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Ruf in to pitch. In the 7th.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 09:06 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

We're going to a position player on the mound. In the seventh. Yeesh.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 09:07 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

1-2-3, five pitches...

Frayed Knot Aug 15 2022 09:07 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

And he goes 1-2-3 on about 7 pitches.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 09:08 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

I may have to stay up just to see what else is in the bag of tricks.

kcmets Aug 15 2022 09:24 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Cy Ruf!

G-Fafif Aug 15 2022 09:24 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Ruf 6.0

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 09:31 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Yeah, Ruf drinks from the tap tonight.

Edgy MD Aug 15 2022 09:33 PM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

McNeil is now third in the National League in batting average.

ashie62 Aug 16 2022 05:30 AM Re: IGT 8/15 Shellac Strider Whiplash Mets v Braves

Wish I stayed up!

I havent voted for schafer in years but give all the points to Darren Ruf

Vote! But don't forget McNeilio's 4-for-4!

I split a full keg on McNutty and Ruffles.
