It's the away we go again series again

Brought us a winning streak the last time

[nymr83]

Freeland is a batting practice pitcher, Mets need to jump all over this guy and not only win the game but knock him out early and get their bullpen tired for tomorrow!

[Edgy MD]

McNeutron and Winker picking splinters against the lefty.

[Edgy MD]

Uninspiring top o' the first.

[Edgy MD]

More inspiring in the top o' the second.

[Gwreck]

Going to need some fundamentals practice here. Severino not backing up, Vientos not playing attention. Very sloppy.

[Edgy MD]

The Rox getting a run and a runner advancing to third because the dugout is broke is kind of questionable.

[Fman99]

Upper deck behind the dish. Beautiful ballpark

[Edgy MD]

Some shaky defense for these well traveled Mets.

And now a Coors Field homer makes defense a bit less relevant.

[Edgy MD]

This guy is one out away from a decision. Tough time for a blister issue.

[Edgy MD]

Way to jump on that first pitch after the meetup, Nimmo.

[Edgy MD]

Now that the Rock Island Liners have changed pitchers, the Mets lefties on the bench come into play.

The difference in this game is McMahon's glove vs. that of Vientos.

And on that note, bench lefty Jesse Winker kills a rally with a GiDP.

[Frayed Knot]

Winker gets quickly on board with the team edict of no hits w/RiSP

[Edgy MD]

Now the Rox send out a rookie with seven games under his belt and an ERA over seven.

Take advantage!

[Edgy MD]

Also, stop hitting it to McMahon.

[Frayed Knot]

All Rox runs tonight scored either via NYM errors or after there were two outs.

[Centerfield]

This is a stupidly aggravating game.

[Gwreck]

This is a stupidly aggravating game.

Third game of four that the Mets have played poorly against a bad team.

[Edgy MD]

Also making a leaky pen look like The Nasty Boys.

[Frayed Knot]

Kris Bryant in the midst of his third season w/the Rox: 42, 80 & 32 (and counting) games played.
All of which adds up to just about one full season played [154 Games, 650 PA]
And the results -- playing half the time in Coors! -- is a combined 716 / 90 OPS/OPS+
His Chicago (and 1/2 season in SF) years produced a 880 / 132 OPS/OPS+ over seven seasons.
And he's still only 32 y/o

[Frayed Knot]

Following the GiDP can we avoid giving up more run(s) after two outs no one on???? .... Nope
Double - Walk - RBI Single - and more?

[Centerfield]

Last place team getting all the big hits tonight.

Team has looked flat this whole trip.
