deGrom and Sampson, two guys with formerly long hair.

Don't the Mets generally celebrate Jacobday by not hitting? I hope this one's different. Later

Time for the Mets to pile on the runs.

Willets Point Sep 13 2022 05:14 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

It's amazing that when deGrom gets an out after going to a full count it's treated like a problem.

The Hot Corner Sep 13 2022 05:23 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

The offense needs to give Jake some run support.

Willets Point Sep 13 2022 05:26 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Nimmo can't jump high enough to avoid getting stung by McNeil's hit.

Willets Point Sep 13 2022 05:35 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

That was a weird half inning.

The Hot Corner Sep 13 2022 05:37 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Well, that wasn't quite what I had in mind. Two walks and a single, yet the Mets still come away empty.

This offense can be real frustrating sometimes.

More concerned with the high pitch count for JdG than the HR.

How can both the HP & 1B umps both not see that??? He not only wasn't on the right side of the line, he wasn't even close to the line.

What is the purpose of umpires if they are going to make calls they shouldn't (Sunday) and not make calls they should (today)?

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 06:31 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Also, McCann hurts himself being positioned in front of the plate, presumably because of the non-blocking rule.

Is that really non-reviewable?

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 06:33 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

I might also question why the Cubs were allowed 25 minutes to decide on a replacement for the injured player.

The September 2022 Mets: Making bad teams and non-descript pitchers look good. Now held over for a second sold out week!

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 06:48 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Five innings to score three runs? Totally doable.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 06:54 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Right now it's taken five innings to get two hits! Both are singles and one was a rule book hit. And of the 15 outs, 14 of them have been soft. But don't worry, we've got that easy schedule coming up (one which is getting increasingly LESS easy by the day)

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 06:58 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Four innings to score three runs? Also, totally doable.

The Hot Corner Sep 13 2022 07:01 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

No pitcher can win a game if he team fails to score. The all or nothing nature of the offense of late is really becoming quite worrisome.

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:03 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

That's it. Just stop swinging and let this guy walk you. And Jeff didn't listen ... .

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:04 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Nobody ever grounded into a double-play by taking strike one.

ashie62 Sep 13 2022 07:07 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Scoring three feels like a bridge too far

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:07 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Three runs in three innings will be tougher. I'll certainly take one run in the next one inning with great happiness.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 07:09 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Did Pete snap the bat over his knee to show us how upset he is?

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 07:16 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Four runs in two [CROSSOUT]innings[/CROSSOUT] games, not currently doable.

Oh good, a lazy ass pop up. Haven't seen one of those in at least two batters. And now another!

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:22 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

I could totally score four runs in two innings. More even.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 07:24 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

At least they used that inning to jack up their hard out total to two (out of 21). So that counts as improvement, right?

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:25 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

No, I wouldn't say it does.

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:28 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Mets are sleepwalking. Buck should've gotten himself tossed.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 07:33 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Halfway through that top 8th I had visions of a position player pitching the 9th.

kcmets Sep 13 2022 07:35 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

The solution is to just put up a five-spot NOW!! We'll laugh about the rest tomorrow.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 07:37 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Our third single!!!!!!!! one of the three actually lowered our chances of winning

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:39 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Two walks for Nimmo already. A new pitcher who threw a bunch already yesterday. Take a McStrike.

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 07:40 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

And he comes out swinging. D'oh!

In this era od gambling and prop bets,, here are the odds on how many balls leave the infield here in the bottom 9th - none -- even money One -- 10% Two or more -- off the board

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 08:00 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

If they get the tying run to the plate here, it'll be Guillorme. OE: And Ruf comes out to bat for him.

Edgy MD Sep 13 2022 08:07 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Well, the Mets have mastered solo homers in the ninth to cut four-run losses into three-run losses.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 08:10 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Giants have pushed across a run in the bottom of the 1st. But I think when the Braves finish laughing their collective asses off at the pathetic team they need to catch who can't beat the frigging Cubs with deGrom on the mound they'll probably fare much better.

kcmets Sep 13 2022 08:11 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 08:38 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

And three pitches after Joc Pederson, a ATL hero in last year's post-season but now playing for the Giants, makes the 3rd out with bases loaded in a 1 - 1 game, the Braves take a 3-1 lead on a 2R HR by Dansby Swanson.

Frayed Knot Sep 13 2022 08:46 PM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

And now it's 4-1 Braves thanks to a dropped Fly Ball for the 3rd out followed by a single by a guy in A-ball when the season started plated another run. So maybe they can win AND laugh their asses off at the Mets at the same time.

ashie62 Sep 14 2022 05:31 AM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Braves 5-1

Fman99 Sep 14 2022 06:07 AM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Fgirl and I opted out of this game to attend the Syracuse Mets game. They started out with a 90 minute rain delay despite it not having rained. They got all nervous about the forecast and didn't want to have to get pitchers up only to have them sit. Except for both teams were using htis as a bullpen game. So not really sure what the point of that was. We made it to the top of the 6th - and at 10:30 PM it was 11-5 Bisons. We got cold and went home. The game went until 11:40 PM. We did get to see both Drew Smith and Tylor Megill pitched. They were equally ineffective in front of tens of fans.

bmfc1 Sep 14 2022 06:26 AM Re: IGT 09/13 - Cubbies at Metsies - But it's Jacobday!

Megill was supposed to breeze threw those innings and be with the Mets today but he got rocked, as Fman99 and Fgirl witnessed. Max pitches in Syracuse tonight and rumor has it that he's having a post-game brew with Fman99.
