Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 We haven't been doing well in recent games when the pitching match-ups have been in our favor. We won't even have that in this one.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 This is what I think their best lineup would look like, if they weren't hitting such that no lineup would make a dif.[TABLE][TR][TH][/TH][TH][FIMG=250]https://cdn.freebiesupply.com/images/large/2x/new-york-mets-logo-transparent.png[/FIMG][/TH][TH][/TH][TH][/TH][TH][FIMG=250]https://cdn.freebiesupply.com/images/large/2x/philadelphia-phillies-logo-transparent.png[/FIMG][/TH][TH][/TH][/TR][TR][TH]#[/TH][TH]Player[/TH][TH]Pos.[/TH][TH]#[/TH][TH]Player[/TH][TH]Pos.[/TH][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]1[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Brandon Nimmo (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]cf[/TD][TD]=#002D72]1[/TD][TD]=#E81828]Andrew McCutcheon (R)[/TD][TD]=#002D72]cf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]2[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Francisco Lindor (S)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]ss[/TD][TD]=#002D72]2[/TD][TD]=#E81828]Matt Joyce (L)[/TD][TD]=#002D72]cf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]3[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Jeff McNeil (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]2b[/TD][TD]=#002D72]3[/TD][TD]=#E81828]Rhys Hoskins (R)[/TD][TD]=#002D72]1b[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]4[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Pete Alonso (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]1b[/TD][TD]=#002D72]4[/TD][TD]=#E81828]Didi Gregorious (L)[/TD][TD]=#002D72]3b[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]5[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Michael Conforto (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]rf[/TD][TD]=#002D72]5[/TD][TD]=#E81828]Alec Bohm (R)[/TD][TD]=#002D72]lf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]6[/TD][TD]=#002D72]J.D.

Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Author Posted May 1, 2021 Nimmo goes down mid at-bat/swing. Not good.
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Author Posted May 1, 2021 Davis out too. For fuck's sake. Where is everyone? I'm dying a death and my mother in law is here at the house!
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Author Posted May 1, 2021 Mets get the benefit of bad umpiring there to get the double play. I'm fine with this.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Could be a Yuge call in a tight game, every bit as Yuge as it was bad. Still not as bad as the one earlier in the week between MIL & StL (the one Gary is mentioning right now) but Purdy darn bad.And by the time McCutcheon slightly touched the grass he was already past Lindor who had given up trying to pursue him.Not a good decision by Lindor btw
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Author Posted May 1, 2021 Both Davis and Nimmo exit with hand injuries apparently.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Conforto just being a good bowling partner by picking up Neris's split.
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Author Posted May 1, 2021 The 2021 Diaz is good. Mets win !
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 That's very satisfying even if we caught a huge break on a bullshit call. Sets up a Big Game to take the series on the road Sunday.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 2, 2021 Posted May 2, 2021 Lindor has been every bit the sucker at the plate, but it's almost fútbol-esque what a defensive captain he is out on the pitch. He made a Little League play and got a pair of Little League calls on that double play and he almost willed it into being with his aplomb and confidence.I don't want to Jeterbate over him or anything, but it's almost hilarious how lost he is at the plate, but on defense, he acts like everything is in hand even when it's not.
