IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 02:15 PM

Buck Showalter keeping his rookie catcher to himself. Marcell Ozuna back out there a day after getting pulled for showboating, standing and watching as his 415-foot drive hit off the wall and only getting a single out of it. Notice how managers never do that if the ball clears the wall.

Quickie KTE: - Acuna's OPS in 1st innings is like 4000 which is why the Braves start 75% of their games up 3-0 after 1 - Olson has become a three true outcomes guy - Riley is down from the MVP type pace he was on the last two years - Sean Murphy is the best hitting catcher in baseball - Eddie Rosario's stats aren't great even though I've yet to see him make an out this season - Albies in RF (usually 2B) is an odd change So is Arcia at 2B (SS) and Harris at SS (CF) and Rosario in CF (LF) !?!? Bryce Elder is good

Bryce Elder is good Arcia is at SS Albies 2b And Harris at CF tonight (who's on first) I am misunderstanding

ashie62 Jun 06 2023 03:09 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Elder leads MLB in ERA Acuna is working on his career year Riley is in a deep funk but he usually wakes up for the Mets

That combo would make more sense, but I was going by the above lineup.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 04:41 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I tell you. My lineup making gets hectic when I'm having pressures coming at me from multiple directions. My apologies for errata.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 04:46 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Correct lineup above. I was posting while cooking dinner, tending to the dog, and making an attractive recital program. That's not the sort of focus that wins games.

ashie62 Jun 06 2023 05:17 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Game time Let the fun begin

ashie62 Jun 06 2023 05:21 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Weather delay Bad weather coming in

kcmets Jun 06 2023 05:22 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Suns out, better cover the field!

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 05:26 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

"Thunderstorms likely" through 9 PM

ashie62 Jun 06 2023 05:39 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Or 10 even Certainly hoping for earlier

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 06:17 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

The supposed first pitch will be 9 PM Of course had they started on time they'd be in the 4th inning by now.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2023 07:01 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I'll be here for the first few innings but am recording Mets Fast Forward. Let's kick Brave ass

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2023 07:04 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Those Atlanta sponsor patches are awful

ashie62 Jun 06 2023 07:19 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

They have started and we are off

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 07:21 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

The Son of Katie Elder is all over the place and the Mets are sorta chasing anyhow.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 07:35 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Chasing the changes in the dirt relentlessly. I imagine they'll adjust, but ... .

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 07:39 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Chavez tossed is odd. Managers rely so much on their bench coachie. I imagine they'd sooner get tossed themselves.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 07:42 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

That's one way to break a slump.

Fman99 Jun 06 2023 07:45 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I hope that this is the beginning of the unfunkening for Lindor

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 06 2023 07:46 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

We need Eric Chavez to get ejected more often

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 07:46 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

So these are those two out RBI hit things I've been hearing so much about?

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 07:46 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I hope that this is the beginning of the unfunkening for the Mets' O.

Fman99 Jun 06 2023 07:47 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Couple o no doubters I like it

metirish Jun 06 2023 07:48 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I'm liking it

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 08:02 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

The Brady Bunch theme from the organist for Baty? Then Mr Ed for Eduardo? Coupla swing and misses there IMO

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 08:19 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

But credit to him for going for some really contemporary references.

metirish Jun 06 2023 08:20 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

The Tullamore Dew commercial is so cringe

I should take this back. In fact, I do. Yellow is in the Braves' color palette, albeit with a deep tertiary status, currently mostly seen as the color of the twine that affixes the head of Braves' tomahawk to its handle.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 08:36 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Way too busy inning for McNeil here.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 08:43 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

That was a delightful at-bat for Rosario.

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 08:50 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 08:57 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Stay out of double-plays, men.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 09:11 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Pham over Álvarez here is different. But in the DH era, using two guys to replace one is more defensible.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 09:18 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Not that I agree with it. And not that it worked.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 09:27 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Well, this is the night McNeil forgets how to play baseball.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 09:34 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Alonso has one homer tonight and three near misses.

Edgy MD Jun 06 2023 09:40 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Blub. Looking at Scherzer and Verlander now.

Frayed Knot Jun 06 2023 10:01 PM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I blame the phantom rain delay.

Fman99 Jun 07 2023 03:30 AM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I went to bed, at least, before it all went to shit.

kcmets Jun 07 2023 11:32 AM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

I haven't seen Fast Forward yet, probably will watch eating dinner later. The other thing, did it actually ever rain during the delay or game?

Edgy MD Jun 07 2023 11:37 AM Re: IGT 6/6, Georgia Satellites

Based on what I inferred from the booth chatter, not a drop.
