IGT 5/3 Mets v Brewers Matz Woodruff

[ashie62]

If Matz can keep the ball in the yard I like our chances

Mets are gonna use Woodruff to flavor the beer they pour on Braun this time.

Adeiny Hecharvarria up, Dom Smith down

It's unfair to Smith, but he needs to play every day and the Mets need a backup shortstop. (PS The Fielding Bible has Rosario at -9 runs saved so far this year, which is horrifying. Hechavarria is putting up a .348/.382/.446 line in Syracuse. Don't assume Rosario's leash is long at this point.)

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Oh I think the leaSh is plenty lengthy.

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, I don't think Rosie is in any danger of being sent down, but the very presence of Hechavarria at least gives Mickey the option of sitting him down once a week or more if and when he goes into a funk.

Certainly less tempting to do so with Guillorme as the option.

[Fman99]

McNeil is great at hitting. But he's 0-4 in SB attempts so far this year. Just sayin'

[Edgy MD]

That effort by Canó on Braun's grounder was ... uninspiring.

[Edgy MD]

Hey, Amed. Don't be surprised, be ready.

[kcmets]

Did the game start on time? It's 9:00 and still struggling to get to the third.

[Chad ochoseis]

It was an 8:05 start.

[Lefty Specialist]

Frazier needs to sit more.

[Edgy MD]

Talk about high leverage. Not getting Cain there might have meant the ballgame.

Brew's pitcher Woodruff needed some 35 pitches just to get thru the top of the 1st which, especially when you consider that he got two outs on just one pitch (strike-out/throw out DP), was a whole lotta pitches for just one run.

Matz, while not nearly as bad, wasn't exactly quick in getting thru his one-run bottom half of the inning.



Things have been scooting along a bit faster since.

[Fman99]

Given up 7 hits but just the one dinger. Both starters over 70 pitches through 4.

The funny part is that Matz has mostly been working fast.

[Frayed Knot]

Almost all the hits tonight (13 for both teams combined so far) have either been because of the shift, not out of the infield, or Both.

[kcmets]

Has anyone noticed the buxom black-haired woman behind home plate

keeping a score card, or is it just me? I mean, she's marking down balls

and strikes. You don't see front-row people that into a game these days.

Well, yeah I noticed.



I mean, I'm not dead.

[Edgy MD]

Fan of the game. She looks like a Melissa to me.

She's got a lovely mezzanine.

Strike back, Metsies.

[Edgy MD]

Keep hitting it to Aguilar. Pass it on.

[Frayed Knot]

Third DP in six innings. One on the steal attempt and two grounders
