Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 And while I don't want to take anything away from Anibal Sanchez, he's not the same hard-thrower he was when he was younger but I don't think he put a ball near the center of the plate all night.He got the benefit of a few calls and got the Mets to chase but that's what happens when you're putting the pill where you want it.But, still, just two hits (fortunately in a row) with only two maybe three hard outs all night and then zippo off three straight relievers is pretty pathetic.That's 0, 1, 4*, 3, 2, and 1 runs over the last six games. Good thing we missed Scherzer and Strasburg, right?* 3 of them in garbage time of the 25-4 debacle ... at least we got a pitcher fired because of it
Guest Rockin' Doc Guests Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Another game, another pathetic performance by the Mets noffense. Poor DeGrom just can't catch a break. It must be tough taking the mound each start realizing that you have to pitch a shut out for 6-7 innings in hopes of getting a no decision. Give up just one solitary run and you will likely get tagged with a loss.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 He seemed to be in a good healthy place at the end, laughing a the absurdity of it. As if he'd been through the injustice and frustration and come out the other side.Open up the bank. Give him all the money.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 I’m at that point too. I give up. I can’t believe we continue to give starts to Jose Reyes and Jose Bautista. Dom Smith rots away in AAA. And I know he hasn’t exactly earned it, but you have to see what he has. Even if it means he has nothing.
