IGT 7/22/2018: NYM@MFY -- Yes, We Have No Yoenis

[G-Fafif]

Cespedes offered to DH. Ricco and whoever else receives these offers declined. Nevertheless, ball will be played in the Bronx, with all of its silly lineup idiosyncrasies adhered to.

Nimmo RF
Cabrera Not A Real Position
Flores 1B
Conforto LF
Bautista 3B
Mesoraco C
Rosario SS
Surehanded Matt den Dekker CF
Reyes 2B

Jacob deGrom aims to make it all palatable.

Some MFY douchebag will pitch for them and be supported by others fitting that description.

I really look forward to hearing A. Rodriguez reminiscing about his days at Yankee Stadium. And the box over the strike zone. And Matt (XFL) Vasgersian.

[G-Fafif]

A night to sync WOR on SiriusXM with muted ESPN.

[G-Fafif]

For those who dig on specifics...

Fucking Gardner LF
Fucking Judge RF
Fucking Gregorious SS
Fucking Stanton Still Not a Real Position
Fucking Hicks CF
Fucking Sanchez C
Fucking Bird 1B
Fucking Andujar 3B
Motherfucking Traitor Walker 2B

Fucking Tanaka will pitch and be grateful not to have to run ninety feet on a fly ball.

[G-Fafif]

Chance of rain tonight. Probably frogs and boils in the Mets clubhouse, too. Move all firstborn sons to high ground.

[Methead]

Those dicklords are gonna postpone deGrom, aren't they

[metirish]

Absolutely milling rain here in the Bronx right now

I am surprised they didnt call it off as of 9 AM in typical Yankee style

[Frayed Knot]

They're going to get this one started at least - although there's another line of stuff in eastern PA right now that might come by later. The question is how soon and then how long into the night this one will go.
These Sunday night games already start too late and now this makes it almost certain that I'm not going to be up by the end.

[Guest 41Forever]

Rain delays just give the ESPN guys more time to beat up the Mets. But they've move on the the Nats' issues, and I'm OK with that.

[metirish]

If this gets going it will be late , a lot of heavy rain here right now

[metirish]

These segments with Rodriguez are shite , it's all about him, look what I noticed about you yyybbb

[metirish]

Game called

[bmfc1]

This is good news because Yoenis is guaranteed to be healthy when the game is played.

Or not.

Monday night, August 13, 7:05 PM, is makeup date.

[bmfc1]

That's now a stretch with 21 games in 20 days. The Mets will be in MIA on Sunday, The Bronx on Monday, Baltimore on Tuesday and Wednesday, and Philadephia (for a DH) on Thursday. I hope all that travel does hurt their level of play.

[Edgy MD]

Not for nothing, but if a 25-story Mister Met can hold an umbrella over the ballpark, why should there be a rainout?

More importantly, will somebody please explain what Mister Met wearing on his head?

[batmagadanleadoff]

Piling onto your post, I'm always leery of anyone whose facial expression doesn't match his mood. So why is Mr. Met grinning from ear to ear if he's disappointed about the rain-out?

Mr. Met is always smiling.
That's what good mascots do.
