At some point they may want to limit Senga's innings Kodai Senga Ace LGM

So what clever sub-line are you withholding? Mets v. Royals? Or, (let's get fancy) Metropolitans v. Royals? Maybe Metsies v. Royals? Stop withholding stuff, willya? Personally, I think that what you really withheld was a youtube Ramones video.

Those Royals uniforms are so clean, lean and classic.

It's a nice looking stadium too but word is the owner wants to wreck it and build a new one.

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 06:53 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Well, at least one side here knows how to get the ball out of the infield.

If I'm remembering right, when it was new, it was my favorite stadium, at least for a while. That scoreboard in the shape of the Royals logo and the water fountains looked so cool. Of course, I hadn't been there. It was all from seeing it on TV.

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 07:08 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Knew we were screwed ss soon as they got the first two batters on. Just like the 1st inning. So oh-fer-6 w/RISP thru 3 innings with one ball (lazy ass FO) leaving the IF Royals, meanwhile, just hit their 8th line drive of the game.

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 07:19 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

It's not just that they're losing to one of the worst clubs of the last decade, it's that they're being embarrassed in the process.

McNeil is going to take all this stranding personally if it keeps up.

Eight of our first 21 ABs, nearly 40%, have come with runners on 1st & 2nd ... and all eight have been completely fruitless.

Edgy MD Aug 02 2023 07:41 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

It always surprises me to see how big Salvador Perez is. You don't get catchers that big and he seems to keep growing. Good for the Mets that he runs like it, though.

"Trades are part of the game!!" says Keith, who was traded at 29 years old, and only reported to his new team, called his agent and asked if he had enough money to retire instead. And then, after his first game or two with his new team, was crying in the shower. They're a part of the game, but a crappy part, that doesn't have to be a part at all.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 02 2023 07:51 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Vientos is meat

Edgy MD Aug 02 2023 07:57 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

It's not that Vientos missed the tag, it's that he was out of position off the bag in the first place. He's a two-way player!

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 08:00 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

So sucking at pitching, hitting, and defense apparently isn't enough. We're now oh-for-two tonight in tagging runners who were beat by the throw.

kcmets Aug 02 2023 08:09 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Bickford kind of falls off the mound like he's going to end up on his face after the pitch.

I got myself locked out of my room in a hotel, headed down to the lobby barefoot in my PJ bottoms and tee-shirt to get a replacement key card, and in front of me in the line at the front desk was John Thompson. I rolled my toes under my feet in terror that he would step on them.

Edgy MD Aug 02 2023 08:34 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Bickford has the opposite of the unibrow, sort of rocking a solid two and half inches between his brows. https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-photos/image/upload/d_people:generic:headshot:67:current.png/w_213,q_auto:best/v1/people/641360/headshot/67/current> He'd like to know if you're talking to him. Then who the hell else are you talking to?

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 08:36 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

That HR was essentially meaningless cuz we weren't scoring three runs if this game went 20 innings.

batmagadanleadoff Aug 02 2023 08:49 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Look on the bright side: With the Royals winning the first two games, they've met their goal of winning "the series". They'll surely lose tomorrow's game intentionally because the goal is to win two out of three and they won't win two out of three if they win tomorrow and sweep the series. So the Mets'll win tomorrow. Yay!

Frayed Knot Aug 02 2023 08:51 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

At some point someone needs to acknowledge that the offense is a bigger problem than the pitching and the pitching is not of major league caliber.

MFS62 Aug 03 2023 05:58 AM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Danny Mendick made it over the Mendoza line. Now, sit his ass down and bring up Mauricio. Later

Lots of room for improvement, and at positions where offense is traditionally prime. The corner outfield slots. DH. And Brett Baty might one day be an all-star. But there's no delicate way of putting it: right now, he outright sucks. He's dreadful.

Johnny Lunchbucket Aug 03 2023 10:59 AM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Yeah I'm woried about Baty. This has to be his time to establish he's worth having in 2024 or we're going to have another bad year

kcmets Aug 03 2023 11:11 AM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

Baty is gonna be huge! Huge, I tell ya.

Chad ochoseis Aug 03 2023 11:14 AM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

That's kind of the problem. If the offense were just plain bad, the solution would be easy - get a new offense. But it's not bad so much as it's a sea of question marks. Does Baty need to develop, or does he just suck? Is Lindor the superstar we need and we thought we were getting, or is he just a pretty good ballplayer getting superstar money? Is Alonso a right handed Babe Ruth, or is he Dave Kingman without the bad attitude and cool stache? Is Vientos? And, WTF, Jeff McNeil?

Edgy MD Aug 03 2023 11:33 AM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

In fairness, between trades (Cahna and Pham) and injuries (Nimmo and Marte*), the outfield isn't the outfield. It's mostly a bunch of day laborers who have little bearing on the past or the future. *Might as well throw Tim Locastro in there too.

Cowtipper Aug 03 2023 05:52 PM Re: IGT 08/02 - NYM @ KCR - Clever Sub-line Withheld Pt 1

What a bottom of the lineup last night. Arauz, Stewart, Ortega, Mendick all in a row. That's a Triple-A set of names right there.
