Theoretically, if Conforto gets hurt, who's job will it be to ground into the shift?

When does Bruce come off the DL? He's just the man for the job.*

Did Nimmo's arm fall off on that throw? That was Gilkey-to-Ordóñez-esque.

[Edgy MD]

Pulling Oswalt after four because ... why?

[Edgy MD]

If Fray-Fray can do it, Smitty, so can you.

Because Mickey has far more faith in the bullpen than most fans do. Maybe he thinks that given enough chances, the bullpen will eventually get the job done.

[Edgy MD]

That's more or less true, but the question is which decision is the best bet.

America loves tack-on runs. Keep it coming, Mets.

[Edgy MD]

Mets chase Stroman!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Now the drama (and potential agony) of watching our bullpen attempt to hold the lead for 5 innings.

[Frayed Knot]

4 run lead, 4 innings to go ... I'd say six or seven more runs and we've got a chance at pulling this one off.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Todd Frazier running the bases like he is in Little League and he's easily thrown out by 3-4 feet. Scored as a caught stealing because "brain fart" isn't an official scoring notation.

The way this Mets team struggle to scor, they can't afford to give away out with boneheaded base running.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Nice backhand grab by Frazier to get the lead runner.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I have always liked Curtis Granderson, but wow does he have a "rag arm".

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Men at the corners with 2 outs. Conforto hit a weak bloop to the SS playing 3rd base. At least he didn't ground into the shift (I guess).

[Edgy MD]

Ronnie: Lugo's in a position here, Gary. He's going to be pitching until he's not effective.

Edgy: That's the way it's supposed to work!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Now if only Callaway would buy into that philosophy.

[Edgy MD]

Tack on, Mets!!

[Edgy MD]

They might've scored if Rosario was running for Flores.

[Frayed Knot]

Every inning without a soul-crushing/lead-reducing/multiple-run HR is a good inning.

[Frayed Knot]

Bottom 9, 3 run lead -- I give us at least a 20% chance of winning this one.

Thanks for first-pitch swinging in the ninth, Jays.

Did Justine Ward appear in this broadcast? I don't recall seeing her.

[Guest 41Forever]

She appeared around the 5th or 6th inning.
