At least but then you improve the defense by removing Davis/Dom and putting Nimmo in LF. If they're gonna look like crap at the plate at least improve the defense.

[whippoorwill]

For whatever reason I've been able to watch all the games, even on SNY

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm glad that Kevin Burkhardt doesn't say Jay-or-reese.

[Frayed Knot]

Leadoff guy on, steal of 2nd, ... then no one gets a ball out of the infield.

And, btw, we have all of three hits.

[Edgy MD]

Let's see a polar vortex here.

[Edgy MD]

We have a the-catcher's-nuts-hurt delay.

[Edgy MD]

POLAR SPEED!

[bmfc1]

That was a great "read" by Alonso.

[Frayed Knot]

That was a gutsy dash to 3rd by the Bear.

That was by no means a gimme and Pillar is a terrific OF

[Frayed Knot]

Conforto gets two gifts on B/S calls then makes a half-hearted wave at a 3-1 pitch ... and then K's w/the tying run on 3rd and 1 out

[bmfc1]

Confort-0 with runners in scoring position two nights in a row.

[Edgy MD]

Barnes is really close to grinding his way through this.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Another whiffy PA by a good player who only needed to make contact

[Edgy MD]

What an inning. The Mets are close to batting around without scoring. And every at-bat goes to 3-2.

[LWFS]

I kinda like Gimenez here BETTER than Cespedes. Is that weird?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Shit called strike on Gimmy

[Frayed Knot]

I like Gimenez up there with a fresh count better than I liked Ces w/2 strikes on him

[LWFS]

Dammit.

[bmfc1]

3 frigging hours of garbage.

[Frayed Knot]

And once again nothing out of the infield

[Chad ochoseis]

Flerg.

[Edgy MD]

What a marathon dry hump of an inning that turned into.

[bmfc1]

Luis could have PH Dom there.

Well, it seems like an hour ago, but McNeil lined to left and Davis dropped a single in front of the centerfielder.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I fully expected to come up empty that inning.

[Frayed Knot]

17 pitches and Diaz still hasn't recorded an out.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Diaz is going to Matz this up

Yes, and then when it came to getting one or more of those runners in from 3rd base ...
