WOW WHAT A DOUBLE PLAY!

[Guest cooby]

Ok. I am going to sleep now. I expect to wake up to a Mets win. If not you will hear my scream.

I want to have Nimmo's baby.

[Edgy MD]

It's great to see Nimmo and Rosario in the middle of everything tonight.

That triple by Rosario earlier was the first time I saw him running 100% out of the box like that. Wow.

[Edgy MD]

Suzuki seems to give his pitcher a target outside the strike zone on every pitch.

Yeah, that was some wheels.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Split series, the earth is still spinning.

The happiest man in baseball is my new favorite Met. He's gotta stay in the lineup.

[Fman99]

I like Gsellman in the 9th. And BOOOOOOKS

So for all the crying and rending of clothing over the last week, we went into the homes of two different 1st place clubs for 4 game series and wound up 3-5, the frustrating part is that it could have been lot
better seeing as how 3 of the 5 losses were via walk-offs and that the margins in those losses were 1, 1, 1, 1, oh yeah, and 12

And then there's also the minor problem of the 17 new and different injuries plus the house catching on fire while we were away, but there's nothing to be done with those things except to deal with them as
they come up and move on.
Game tomorrow.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, they were ahead in seven of eight. And they're still within spitting distance. Nothing that can't be righted.

Not sure I particularly follow Callaway's mindset at all, but there's nothing that can't be righted. And this road trip can be remembered as (among other things) the period when Brandon Nimmo made it clear that he was for real.

[Guest cooby]

Yay!!!

[Centerfield]

Was out last night, but was legitimately shocked when I saw the score update.

For those that watched, was there anything noticeably different about Vargas?

I can't imagine the pitcher I've watched pitching 5 scoreless against that lineup.

He took my advice and decided to try pitching right handed.

[Centerfield]

That was good advice. I was leaning toward sending him to Peru.

Cast your vote!

I know it has been said many times but I am really liking Nimmo, easy to root for and really cool to watch his progression into this.

Tim Britton with a gem about a gem. The Athletic requires $ but it's worth it. The rest of the Mets beat writers can go home.

ESPN Insider is still a subscription, but I let mine lapse as the 'excellent' writing is now few and far between.
