[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Another 9:45 start, Bassitt opposes RHP Logan Webb, who's 5-1, 3.54-- or about the Giants' best guy out there.

They need to stop screwing over Guillorme

[Edgy MD]

I'm waiting for my JD Davis catching experiment to launch.

[kcmets]

Is Guillorme the 'emergency catcher' or has been lobbying to try?

Is Guillorme the 'emergency catcher' or has been lobbying to try?

is this what you referring to (trying to make it sound like Omar said it):

He said Guillorme has told him he’s even ready to step in as catcher in an emergency situation, if needed. Showalter, who had significant time to study his new players this past offseason during the owners’ lockout, said he asked around about Guillorme and the infielder has been “as advertised.”

Added Francisco Lindor of Guillorme’s all-around impact on the Mets: “Every team needs a player like that.”

Maybe, I don't read the rags much so probably heard it on radio or tv.

I always wonder why more utility infielders DON'T offer themselves as emergency catchers. Emergencies rarely arise, you can't do it poorly enough to catch a lot of blame for screwing the pooch, and it's a certain kind of insurance against getting sent down, traded, DFAed. Where's the downside?

Speaking of Giants, these uniforms are a giant mess. Looks like the color of a salmon's asshole.

[Edgy MD]

First two outs come chasing garbage outside the zone.

As for myself, I can't tell one piscine anus from another. Never could.

[Edgy MD]

Same pitch ultimately gets three different guys chasing for strike three.

[Frayed Knot]

Made it thru the 8th last night.
The hangover effect won't let me get that far tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Well, you made it long enough for the game to be tied.

they look like someone messed with the Tint/hue buttons on an old CRT tv

[Edgy MD]

McNeil's still red hot on defense.

[nymr83]

This ump has a generous strikezone

[Edgy MD]

McNeil should have been running on 3-2.

[Edgy MD]

McNeil just (probably) saved a run by playing a carom neatly off the right field wall ... as a secondbaseman.

[Frayed Knot]

Me no likey walking #9 hitter with 2 outs.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That LaSucks

[Frayed Knot]

Me no likey walking #9 hitter with 2 outs.

And that's why!

[Edgy MD]

Giants starting to hit it hard, socking a 3-run homer to go up 6-1.

[Frayed Knot]

Hit Nimmo in the leg and he still runs to 1st

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Bassist aint nothin but a hound dog

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, but your name's still Joc.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Nogostrike.

[Edgy MD]

Nogo showing why maybe we should've gone to the pen a bit earlier.
