The Reds @ Mets IGT Cannot Be Ignored (4/30/19)

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It's obvious what the Mets need to get them going is a rare latter-day REM raucous album cut.



Imagine how pissed Stipe would be had he lived long enough to see this orange junkbag in the office, or be there with the TNMC to see Vargas like I'm about to do

Brandon Nimmo plans to give a seminar on how to walk in dignity with throw up on your shoes.

Solid first inning for the Varg.

[kcmets]

For posterity's sake...

[Chad ochoseis]

And the pool is left speechless by Vargas' performance.

[Edgy MD]

And McNeilo's.

[Frayed Knot]

And Frazier's

[Edgy MD]

Frazier seems like a stranger on this team, but he's more familiar to me and he's becoming a part of this offense.

[Edgy MD]

Hell of an appearance by Laggy.

[Edgy MD]

Steal. Home. Amed.

[Edgy MD]

Nope.



Big moment coming up for Familia-Guy.

A much lesser one by Dom

[Fman99]

Seriously. This would be a great spot for him not leave a big old coil on the mound.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Familia for a six-out save? I can't see how THAT can go wrong.

[kcmets]

Votto! Haha!

[Fman99]

Boy that's a gift there by Votto. Two outs, just like that.

[Edgy MD]

I tend to think Votto has amazingly had his head in the game night after night, year after year, with mostly terrible Cincinnati teams.



Great to have him playing against the Mets the night his head was up his ass. Lucky us.



The vengeful-God theory takes a big hit, there.

[Edgy MD]

MvpNeil.

[Frayed Knot]

Hey McNeil, find out where the ball is first and THEN ask for time.

[Fman99]

Amazing, somehow, that turned into a 7 pitch inning for Fams. I am feeling better.

[Edgy MD]

Both Mets firstbasemen get eaten alive by that slider.

[Edgy MD]

Conforto grinning like Nimmo there.



Nice tack-on.

[Fman99]

I get rock hard when insurance runs are scored.

Well, better with a two-run lead than just one. And only 7 pitches to get thru the 8th.

And if not him ... who?

He got that DP and then totally turned it around. Go Fams!

[Edgy MD]

Old Skool Familia, so far.

[Fman99]

Man, three years of watching him try to throw 103 MPH pitches. Exhausting.

[Edgy MD]

Mercy me, what a doink.
