IGT 5/16/2019: NYM @ WSH -- Sunny Afternoon

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Fire Mickey

[Edgy MD]

I get the idea that Mickey takes the long view. Like, decades long.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

This is just so disheartening. Bring a little momentum into a series against a wounded opponent you see 6 times in a week and shit the bed repeatedly till you lose the series.

[Edgy MD]

Yup. Perfect time to go for the short view. Nothing says "go get this," like a manager saying "Let's go get this!"



Instead, he punches the clock like Art Howe.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo, Rosario, Neato in the ninth.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I've had it up to here with Zimmo btw. He needs a week in Syracuse.



I wonder if the Mets couldn't also demote Mickey for a spell. Go to Class AA, manage a few series wins and we'll bring ya back up. Not as extreme as my plan to put him out of work immediately

[Edgy MD]

And then Zimmo goes and has a good classick Nimmo at-bat.

[Edgy MD]

Man, everything worked, but now we have Ramos as the tying run.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Hmmm

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

oh my

[Edgy MD]

One run home, but Ramos only reaches second.



What a state of things.

[Chad ochoseis]

Let's go get this!

Even now we need Smith to hit it over the fence

Yeah, I've actually seen him score from second on a homerun. This can work!

[Chad ochoseis]

Weird that Alonso didn't PH against the lefty, but Ramos and Laggy did.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Down to our last strike

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Laggy was in for McNeil earlier

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

OH god

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

PH for Broxy??

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

fffffffuck

[Chad ochoseis]

Crap

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Stupid Kinks

I think we were out of OFs if the game went into extras. But I was thinking I'd rather see Noah batting than Brox.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

They coulda moved Smith to the outfield. Basically turned Broxton into the new De Aza

[kcmets]

Oh well, crap on a cracker...

[kcmets]

Conforto has a concussion

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Terrific

[ashie62]

Last years team was better

[nymr83]

This loss SUCKS, opposing starter gone in tue second inning you need to pull this one out!

[Edgy MD]

Opposing starter gone in the second inning and the whole story all season with this oppenent has been how shallow their bullpen is.



I liked last year's team, and I like this one more. But the whole prevailing offensive philosophy just seems so injudicious.
