There is every opportunity for Verlander to be a stopper LGM

Greene is their ace, throws mega heat, almost had a no-hitter this year.

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 12:56 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

He can also hit but MLB is preventing him from doing so.

It seems as if they are playing from behind every night.

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 04:54 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Well at least JV isn't getting hit hard so far [line single, K, deep fly, bullet double]

Seems?

Two on now Reds are hitting balls hard

Look, that HR call was brutal

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 05:29 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Much better 2nd & 3rd innings offensively, maybe our best in a while, even with just the one run scored. Just a shame that two hot liners w/runners on hit leather and were turned into three outs.

metirish May 10 2023 05:32 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Jerry loves to talk.... And talk and talk

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 05:47 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

What's that called again when we have more runs than the other team at some point during the game? A bead? A deed? Some mead? I forget, it's been a while.

Edgy MD May 10 2023 06:03 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

The mets.com website's game lede is "JV makes second Mets start," and I'm thinking "Jordany Valdespin?"

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 06:06 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Mr. Upton has certainly settled down since inning #1

Edgy MD May 10 2023 06:08 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Ouch. It's nice to see McNeil a defensive plus more-or-less wherever they put him.

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 06:16 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

If they overturn this call on the slide and hand raise by Luis after the non-call last night I think Buck may spontaneously combust. And, btw, why is this one reviewable while last night's wasn't????

I think the ruling should be, "After further review, the call at second stands. The Reds lose their challenge and so the call at first will not be reviewed."

ashie62 May 10 2023 06:29 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Anyway Verlander had economical and effective

Edgy MD May 10 2023 06:32 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

I'd really like to extend the lead against this pen.

ashie62 May 10 2023 06:36 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

As good as Verlander has been this could be decided by the Mets bullpen and the Reds one for that matter

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 06:37 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

A NYM starter in the 7th!!! Lately, getting them to the 4th has been a struggle.

metirish May 10 2023 06:42 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Well, that was great from Verlander... As Ashie notes let's see what the pen does , I'm feeling optimistic though

ashie62 May 10 2023 06:43 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Score runs now

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 06:43 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

104 pitches thru 7. Exactly where it should be in a well pitched game.

Edgy MD May 10 2023 06:45 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

It's cool to see Jake Fraley time-traveling from 40 years in the future to root for younger self. https://metsrostercentral.files.wordpress.com/2023/05/screen-shot-2023-05-10-at-8.43.07-pm.png>

It's good to see Vogelbach's pants get dirty.

Wait. I should rephrase that.

Yeah, I doubt his mother ever said that when he was a toddler.

It will still be fasten your seatbelt time unless they add some runs

Tough inning for Jonathan India.

Actually, I guess that should be Jonathan Guardia now. OH!

The Meet the Mets theme music sounds great tonight

Frayed Knot May 10 2023 07:19 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Be nice to some RS that I need two hands to tally and not have most of them coming via solo HRs, but I'll take it especially since we saw better ABs tonight (against better pitching too) and could have scored more with just a little bit of better luck.

Lefty Specialist May 10 2023 07:24 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Shouldn't be so hard to beat the freakin Reds but I'll take it. Verlander earned some of that big-time money tonight.

G-Fafif May 10 2023 11:12 PM Re: IGT 05/10 - Metropolitans at Redlegs

Thirteenth three-handed two-hit (nine-inning) victory gang-pitched by the Mets, but the first in which each pitcher was 37 or older.
