I Believe There's A Game Today - IGT 05/11 ATL @ NYM

Why throw a strike when you don't need to?

He would have walked Marte but Marte wouldn't let him.

[Frayed Knot]

He tried to walk Taylor but Taylor wouldn't let him either.

[Fman99]

Suck less you Mets

[Frayed Knot]

I wish I could say that there's a wee bit of tension here but there is none.

[Frayed Knot]

Well, that's ... something I guess.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Lololooll

[bmfc1]

When a meaningless HR feels like a victory.

[Fman99]

Shitty

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Serves the Braves right for the closer flex

[kcmets]

This team sucks.

[Frayed Knot]

And just think, tomorrow we get to embarrass themselves on national TV

[whippoorwill]

Not if we don’t watch 🤦‍♀️

[Frayed Knot]

But, hey, the Nationals also lost today so we haven't yet totally lost sight of third place!

[kcmets]

What the heck is intercostal irritation?

[Frayed Knot]

Serves the Braves right for the closer flex

Yeah, kind of an odd call.
23 pitches last night for Iglesias and now 25 more today, both to protect multi-run leads.

This Mets team is absolutely dire to watch

What the heck is intercostal irritation?

I tore an intercostal muscle (muscles between the ribs) once. When I initially noticed it, I thought I had cracked or broken a rib. Made it painful to cough or sneeze. Also very sensitive to touch, so I had to sleep in a recliner for a few weeks, because I couldn't lay on my side or stomach. I imagine it baseball activities pretty uncomfortable. Hopefully, Nimmo's injury is minor and won't keep him out for long.

[The Hot Corner]

On paper, this team looked pretty good. On the actual field, they look pretty bad.

This Mets team is absolutely dire to watch

Especially with the many hideous uniforms they'll probably wear half the time going forward. Its one big clown show, not to mention that the crapfest Mets are probably like one two game win streak from being in the money.

I'm blaming Alonso for the disgusting Piazza era black throwbacks. What a rube. He liked them so Cohen made "em happen.

Today, those thick black city connect pinstripes reminded me of jail bars. Maybe they symbolize ,--- wait --- I mean represent--- the crime in NYC.

They might as well wear Mercury Met throwbacks every Wednesday. Or are those throwforwards ?

[metirish]

Mets haven't won a game wearing the City Connect

[Edgy MD]

They're winless in that nasty new black top also. Probably not a correlation, though.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Mets haven't won a game wearing the City Connect

I don't think they're won a game in any uniform. But not to worry because at that rate, I think they can clinch a playoff spot by Thursday.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I do believe there is a Mercury Mets throwback game this summer 🚀 ⚾️ 🤡

What the heck is intercostal irritation?

From a search (Medical News Today):

Intercostal muscle strain is an injury affecting the muscles between two or more ribs. Symptoms can include sharp, direct pain, stiffness, and mobility difficulties. The intercostal muscles have different layers that attach to the ribs to help build the chest wall and assist in breathing.

Depending on the severity of your intercostal muscle strain, your healthcare provider may prescribe different treatment options to help manage your symptoms. Muscle relaxants are a class of medication that can be prescribed to decrease pain and intercostal muscle spasm by blocking nerve pathways to decrease muscle contraction.
