Who pitches who pitches who pitches who pitches the bottom of the eighth?

I've been at a work event and sneaking peeks at the phone.

He’s going with Maton.

I ask you. If you don’t bring in the lefty to face Schwarber and Harper, why even carry him?

8th and 9th inning Mets are fun Mets.

He had Maton up for the twi-run lead, but yeah, he should switch to a lefty now.

Let us take a moment to recall that no small part of what kept that inning alive was Lindor somehow hitting a ball that bounced in front of the plate.

Yeah but ...
- it's a four run lead
- neither Schwarber or Harper is lame vs LHPs
- you also need to face Turner and Castellanos (and now Bohm)

I don't think it's cut and dried either way but I think just seeing it as Righty v Lwfty is overly simplistic, particularly when your RHPs are better then your LHPs

Maton pulls it out

He's not my favorite reliever but he got it done

And so it's AT LEAST a four run lead in bottom 9th facing 6-7-8 in the Philly lineup.

I wonder if Diaz is not available. Let’s score 8 just in case.

Hopefully a 6-1 lead sits Diaz down.

Another four or five runs and you can almost think about bringing Ottavino in for the ninth!
