[Frayed Knot]

Guardians bunch their hits again while we're really good at spreading ours out ... and so it's tied.

[MFS62]

Fudge.
Later

[Edgy MD]

It'd be really sweet and meaningful to answer back here.

[Frayed Knot]

So the starter McKenzie is listed at 6' 5" / 165 and in comes the reliever Gaddis at 6' 6" / 260
That barely seems possible.

[Edgy MD]

Maybe that payback plunk of Fry wasn't so necessary as all that.

Sleeping dogs and all.

[MFS62]

Seeing Garrett in this inning means they're saving Ottavino for later innings. I would reverse the order.
Later

[Edgy MD]

There's nothing to save anybody for. The game is now.

[MFS62]

Rodriguez is the third Guardian batting under .180 who has driven in a run in this series.

Wheels Vientos has orange spikes today

[ashie62]

Could be the Mets are the mistake by the lake today

[Edgy MD]

The mistake was plunking David Fry.

[Frayed Knot]

Eh, we weren't coming back from one run anyway so this all is merely window dressing.

[metirish]

Steve better extend the NO FEES to entice fans to come

[Edgy MD]

This has been two different games.

[kcmets]

That Lake Erie perch is gonna sit in my colon until Memorial Day.

[MFS62]

Wimper.

That's so nobody can say they went down without a wimper.

Later

[ashie62]

They hope to rebound on Friday at home with Christian Scott on the hill

[Lefty Specialist]

Steve Cohen these days:

[Edgy MD]

Anybody else agree that throwing a one-hitter, facing the minimum number of batters, on an impressively low pitch count, José Quintana seemingly made unnecessary trouble for himself by plunking Fry with seeming intent?

The turning point didn't follow immediately, but follow it did.

[MFS62]

To a veteran pitcher, it should not have been more or less upsetting than allowing a base runner by hit or walk.
Later

[Edgy MD]

I didn't mean to suggest it was upsetting to José Quintana.

[Cowtipper]

Garrett was bound to come down to earth eventually.

If the Mets are tanking in June and he still has an ERA below 3, the Mets should trade him while he has value.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Garrett was bound to come down to earth eventually.

He gave up a run today. That's hardly coming back down to earth. His ERA is now all the way up to 1.04.

[whippoorwill]

Decent
