[G-Fafif]

Reel in those Fish and land a .500-lb. record.



Jake in daylight at home. Let us make optimal use of the lidlifter.

MIA RH Sandy Alcantara (4-10, 4.54)

NYM RH Jacob deGrom (6-7, 2.78)

[Edgy MD]

Runz. Score some.

[ashie62]

Oh Gaydame, oh you came and you gave without taking



LGM



Let deGrom go as far in as we need. I am calling this a must win

[ashie62]

The Mets



McNeil 2B

Rosario SS

Conforto RF

Alonso 1B

J.D. Davis LF

Frazier 3B

Nido C

Lagares CF

deGrom RHP

[Lefty Specialist]

McNeil leading off and Rosario batting second. It'll be interesting to see how that plays out. Of course on the flip side, deGrom is arguably the best hitter in the bottom third of the order.....

[G-Fafif]

Alcantra goes in the nightcap. Robert Dugger, a righty, makes his...major league debut in the opener.



Mets facing the unknown. Often treacherous.

[Edgy MD]

This treacherous threat just gave up a dong on his first pitch to Jeff McNeil, who is making the world forget Daniel Murphy.

[G-Fafif]

Daniel Who?

[Centerfield]

Why do I get this feeling that this is going to be a really tough game?



Come on guys. Also, getting no work done. I should just go home.

[Frayed Knot]

Only two swing-and-misses (I think) for JdG so far thru two innings, and he was lucky to get thru the 2nd w/o further damage.

The Marlins seem to do this sort of thing to him.

[Frayed Knot]

Isn't this Marlin pitcher one of the guys on that TV show with like 19 kids?



I wonder how many tickets he had to buy for this debut game?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

He walked Lagares, that's something few pitchers can do.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

wtf is degrom giving up doubles for

[A Boy Named Seo]

BEARD BOMB

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

2 run single for deGrom

[Edgy MD]

You gots to support yourself.

[G-Fafif]

THE CAUSE HELPERS

***They let their bats do the additional talking their arms aren't already doing!!!***

[Frayed Knot]

And his arm is starting to talk more as this game goes on.

Shaky early on, kind of dominant since.

That guy appears to have left the building.

[Edgy MD]

Juan Lagares is a walking machine.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Howie Rose just said that it's not easy to walk Juan Lagares. I bet I could do it.

[Edgy MD]

Biggest error for Gary Cooper since he ditched Veronica Balfe for Patricia Neal while filming The Fountainhead.



Strike that. Biggest error for Gary Cooper since filming The Fountainhead.

[Edgy MD]

Strap in. Diaz cometh.

[Edgy MD]

Shmeeze, Diaz. You're gonna kill a guy.

[Gwreck]

Books. .500.



Now go win another one.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Meaningful games in August! I didn't think this would be happening!
