I hope Remoulade doesn't make sauce out of Quintana. Let's give Quintana a healthy cushion, guys. Later

Marte still sitting.

Chicago effectively deploying the doink.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:18 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Marte to the IL. No corresponding move announced. I'm guessing Vientos back.

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 11:20 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

I don't understand why they don't IL Marte for 7 days Migraines are no joke.I assume the Mets are playing a man down today

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:28 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

They just did IL him. I'm not sure I agree with Gary. I think a little wildness can be more forgiveable in an otherwise effective closer than in a starter.

metirish Jul 20 2023 11:31 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

IIRC didn't Marte smash his head good on a play at 3rd a while back ? Maybe hit the knee of the 3rd baseman ?

MFS62 Jul 20 2023 11:32 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Only one run? Those folks who looked at how he pitched during the past few weeks on rehab and bet the over lost. Later

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:32 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Stop acting so smart, Gary. Who doesn't know Cohoes?

Johnny Lunchbucket Jul 20 2023 11:32 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

3rd home game in a row where they went blue tops

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 11:40 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Down two runs I hope Quintana can keep it close for the five innings he will likely pitch

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:42 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Yeah, that blue-top thing is odd. Two runs, but I think Quint looks good. Hittable, but he's mixing it up, with everything around the plate and down.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:50 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Nice pack of daycampers in centerfield.

MFS62 Jul 20 2023 11:52 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Vientos and Mauricio are both in the lineup or Syracuse today (As per SNY). Later

My first Mets game was a little league trip to the upper deck in 1968 against the Braves Phillies down 3-0 in the fifth

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 11:59 AM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Kopech leaving everything up this inning.

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 12:01 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Pham did not run, at all

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 12:08 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Well, we might have lost two outfielders in one afternoon. Danny Mendick, call your agent.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 12:31 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

On the scoreboard, thanks to Omar Narváez. Outhitting his team 2-0.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 12:41 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Not a good 0-2 pitch, there, Drew.

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 12:45 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

They really need this game To all except Omar, please hit

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 12:46 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Oh crap, and depression set in

batmagadanleadoff Jul 20 2023 01:05 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Here's some Keystone Cops stuff. Brett Baty badly misplays a routine infield pop fly and then, insult to injury, lets the ball bounce into his face. [YOUTUBE]N71dA2DjX8[/YOUTUBE] Hey! Do we have any card carrying members of the Brett Baty fielding club on this forum? Tell us what a great fielder Brett Baty is.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 01:14 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

And having no righthanded batter to pinch-hit for Narváez is kind of getting caught with our pants down.

ashie62 Jul 20 2023 01:30 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

Yes, somebody asleep upstairs I guess Mauricio and Vientos "might" be able to provide a spark going forward It is working for the Reds. They have three rookies mashing

=ashie62 post_id=132300 time=1689878748 user_id=90] They really need this game

No they don't. Isn't the goal to take the series? To win two out of three? Then mission accomplished, the Mets having already won the first two of three games, this being the third and last game of the series. In fact, the Mets should lose this game to perfectly fulfill the goal. Why care about this game? It's moot. /rollseyes

No, being this far out in late July puts a premium on winning everyday

Vientos scratched Mauricio still in I would hope they let him play everyday. He is either the goods or not the goods

Vientos may indeed be the goods or not the goods. He may also be kind of the goods, but kind of not. But that's true of all of us.

Gloomy Gus time is over in 49 minutes. Let's go watch Alonso and Alvarez park some baseballs onto Lansdowne Street this weekend.

My point is you need to play them regularly to find out on any level It's time I don't know how regular is regular but I can think of plenty of players who played some, and then played some more, and still emerged fine. Francisco Álvarez is right there to show how it can be done — playing 50% of the time, then 60%, then 70% then 80%. Now maybe more. Obviously, not everybody can play every day, but everybody equally is angling themselves for a chance to show what they can do. We'll see going forward. My guess he gets in against all lefties, and steals occasional days against righties from Guillorme, McNeil, Baty, Vogebach, and Stewart, and that means perhaps six games out of 10 if he isn't going well, and eight games out of 10 if he is, and the possibility for more or less as the situation reveals itself more clearly. If I'm the manager, I'm trying to win games.

nymr83 Jul 20 2023 03:32 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

The manager should generally be trying to win games. But it reaches the point in a season (and we aren't there yet but we are darn close) where a directive from the front office needs to supersede that. You are still trying to win games, but with the added directive that, win or lose, you need to get Alvarez, Baty, & Vientos X amount of playing time as determined by the front office so that the front office will see them play and be better educated as to the Mets holes for next year.

Edgy MD Jul 20 2023 04:09 PM Re: IGT 7/20 Mr Mojo Risin Quintana Debut Mets vs White Sox

I'm certain we'll see plenty of Vientos going forward.
