Sitting in the middle of Citified

Waiting for Carrasco to begin

Lost between McNeil and Lindor

Our second half SHaMs



And we're not where we started

Here we go no Max again

Day after day and I get up and say

Why trade all our pitchers away



Where are all the players going

Texas and Houston have two of them

Traded around til we reach the end



One game leading up into another

Beat the Pirates and do it again

Lotta fun, but the sub line needs a slight adjustment...

Re: IGT 8/14 Do it Again Mets vs Piates

The Pirates, btw, played the Braves in the series just before ours, but instead of getting shut out twice and having Single A teams look at our

performance and say, 'Man, those guys really suck', Pitt played three close games and won two of them; had a +1 run differential which rates

just a slight bit better than our -34

We caught a couple of breaks in that top 1: a (slightly) generous strike 3 call and the out of the baseline call.

Can Cookie pitch just one freaking clean inning?

Carrasco is going to be over 100 pitches by the 4th inning at this rate.

If I had his stuff, I wouldn't want to throw it over the plate, either.

Well, he did hit 14 HR in 95 games at Syracuse.

So, it was possible.

Re: IGT 8/14 Do it Again Mets vs Piates

Even that seemed like an anomaly as he had just 5 in 197 big league ABs before this game and has slugged just .366 in his minor league career.



Also, if I'm not mistaken, Lindor is the Mets' first 20-20 guy since Carlos Beltran in 2008, when he had 27 dingers and 25 stolen bases.

Wasn't Sam Coonrod part of a tag team with Haystacks Calhoun?

I may be conflating professional wrestlers with L'il Abner characters. I was never an expert on either.

You're not. Both of them were real wrestlers. I saw them on tv way back when.

Calhoun was the guy I was thinking about.

Earthquake McGoon was a L'il Abner character.

And they manage to slide it in just under the three hour mark despite 82 combined walks and full counts from the two pitching staffs.

Re: IGT 8/14 Do it Again Mets vs Piates

This decisive victory had some serious stakes by the way, as the Mets and Bucs went into the matchup tied for 11th place in the league-wide standings, a designation the Mets now hold all to themselves, thank you very much.



Baltimore is currently up 1-0 after four against the Padres, and if the Orioles can hold on, the Mets will pull within two games of the coveted 10th-place position.
