Baty getting the call against the lefty. Michael Harris dropped a spot in the lineup for Cadillacking.

Biggest game in the history of franchise, well, for August 2022!! #lgm #ygb #ymdyf

Chad ochoseis Aug 18 2022 03:54 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Best line I've heard this week: DeGrom is so good he even keeps the Mets from scoring!

ashie62 Aug 18 2022 05:08 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Maybe Jake can go into the 7th inning. Probably not but I can hope

Lefty Specialist Aug 18 2022 05:18 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I hate how they build Jake up as THE GREATEST PITCHER OF ALL TIME. Inevitably he's going to have a stinker; not saying it's tonight but it'll come. And how they harp on THE GREATEST HALF-SEASON IN MAJOR LEAGUE HISTORY last year. He was great, but he broke down and you get the feeling that he's one awkward pitch away from going back on the infinite Injured list. I'm a Debbie Downer, but I hold my breath every time he takes the mound.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 05:39 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I may be missing it, but it looked fair to me.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 05:40 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I guess I didn't have the right angle.

nymr83 Aug 18 2022 05:56 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

McCann looks fucking useless at the plate

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 06:01 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

How does Fried go out in public with that pitiful excuse for a mustache?

The Hot Corner Aug 18 2022 06:09 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

When Acuna hit that ball it looked and sounded like a HR or extrabase hit. Glad it was just a line drive to Cahna.

The Hot Corner Aug 18 2022 06:11 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Damn, Dansby Swanson instead hit a rocket into the gap to plate Grossman. Swanson seems to be DeGroms kryptonite.

Lefty Specialist Aug 18 2022 06:13 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Jake looking human, unfortunately.

You get the opinion that some fans are disappointed when he records out by non-K's.

The Hot Corner Aug 18 2022 06:17 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Four consecutive Braves 4 hard line drives off of DeGrom. Luckily 2 of them were to Mets fielders or it could have gotten real ugly. As it is, the Braves score 2 runs.

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 06:27 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Pete's hitting a lot of stuff straight up the chimney lately.

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 06:37 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Yes We Canha!

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 06:37 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Canha get a Witness!

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 06:47 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

This is the first inning that deGrom seems to be consistently working the slider like he can. Like Canha got the monkey off his back.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 06:55 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Fried has, like, no ass. He makes deGrom look like Heath Bell.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:05 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Cahna up third this inning. Let's get it done.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:08 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Jeff McNeil enters the diamond and get "Sweet Caroline."

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 07:09 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Brett Baty, Bruce Boisclair Initials = B.B. plus same hair Coincidence?... I think not!

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:10 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

CAN-ha gets "Pachibel's CAN-non." More than a little forced.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:22 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

And after Baty can't quite come up with the third out in the seventh, he exits the game hoping for a no-decision, assuming Loogie can get the last out.

Fman99 Aug 18 2022 07:26 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Dammit

Lefty Specialist Aug 18 2022 07:27 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Well, fuck.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:29 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Scoring from first on a grounder up the middle is punch in the gut.

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 07:29 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I knew they were sending him home as soon as that single cleared the infield.

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 07:34 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I feel like if the Mets tried that kind of thing they'd be out by a mile.

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 07:35 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Now lets see if McCann can score on a hit.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:36 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

McCann's bat finally engages. Naquin running for him, as all the starting pitchers have been sent to Philly.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:40 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Nimmo hasn't been right since before the break.

kcmets Aug 18 2022 07:42 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Nimmo - whiffer, stock has been dropping and bad....

kcmets Aug 18 2022 07:43 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

This is not going as planned.

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:45 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Somebody should have told Marte that it was the first inning.

kcmets Aug 18 2022 07:50 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Givens strikes out everyone!

Edgy MD Aug 18 2022 07:56 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

I'm thinking that maybe Naquin should have stayed in the game for Nimmo or Marte and pushed the catcher's spot back a notch or two.

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 07:57 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Lindor could've made it back.

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 07:58 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Could use a Vogelbomb right now.

Fman99 Aug 18 2022 08:00 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Man, Lindor must be kicking himself. He just has to look up and spot that ball

Willets Point Aug 18 2022 08:03 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Poop

kcmets Aug 18 2022 08:03 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Welp

Lefty Specialist Aug 18 2022 08:04 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Bleh. Gotta suck it up against the Phils this weekend.

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 08:07 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

=Fman99 post_id=104557 time=1660874401 user_id=86] Man, Lindor must be kicking himself. He just has to look up and spot that ball

I disagree. It wasn't obvious that that ball was going to drop until it dropped. If he stays at 2nd and is wrong it's a DP. If he goes back to 1st and is wrong it's a FC.

And if he tries playing it down the middle he's out either way.

Frayed Knot Aug 18 2022 08:12 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

So we still wind up taking this split nine game series 5-4 But, Damn, 6-3 would have been a lot sweeter.

Gwreck Aug 18 2022 08:37 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Big missed opportunity to not clinch the season series with a win tonight. It'd be a lot more comfortable to own that tiebreak.

bmfc1 Aug 18 2022 10:07 PM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Maybe Nimmo should start sitting against lefties for a while. You could put Pete at leadoff--he's become a singles and doubles hitter and he has more steals than Nimmo.

Lefty Specialist Aug 19 2022 04:36 AM Re: IGT 8/18 Mets @ Bravos deGrom Day

Agree that Nimmo needs a rest. Naquin could probably slot in there pretty well.
