IGT 8/14/2021: LAD@NYM: "F*CK O'MALLEY"

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Gotta pull this one from the Jauss of defeat

[bmfc1]

The visiting team scored one run in the top of the 10th. We're supposed to be sated with that result but with the way the Mets have been hitting it doesn't feel that way.

[Lefty Specialist]

Ok, don't annoy me for the second straight extra-inning game, please.

[Edgy MD]

Is Spicoli pitching?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Dammit mccann

[bmfc1]

The good news is that we're another day closer to the end of McCann's contract.

[Edgy MD]

Righthanded slider eats up McCann.



That's just the way it goes down.

I want that $40 million back.

Drury been getting chasey.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That was ugly.



Zimmo will save us

[Edgy MD]

He didn't see a single strike.



C'mon, Nimble.

[bmfc1]

Maz hit a HR tonight.

[Willets Point]

The Dodgers have so many Coreys and Codys they should make an 80s movie for tween girls.

[Frayed Knot]

Is Dave Roberts about to over-manage his way out of a victory?

[Edgy MD]

With the shift against Nimmo, it may pay to steal here.

[Lefty Specialist]

Spinach.

[Frayed Knot]

This is not the time of year for moral victories or 'hang with em' shouts of encouragement.

[Edgy MD]

Noodles.

[bmfc1]

The Mets could have started that inning with runners at 1st, 2d and 3d and still not scored. They are a terrible hitting team but that's nothing you don't know.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We really lost this one when Nido couldn't get a bunt down

[Ceetar]

shouldn't have been bunting.

[bmfc1]

I'm so sick of this up-down BS.

There's certainly a thought that the game is likely to end in the 10th, with the zombie runner rule, so you're not necessarily worried about burning through pitchers. Maybe there's an argument to be made that Diaz, fresh, against those specific players is more effective than a second inning of Lugo. Maybe there is some data to back that up, maybe there are fatigue/injury issues we're unaware of, but the up-down thing clearly seems to be Rojas' go-to lie about bullpen moves, so we'll never know.

Probably not but still. Can't get thr ball even in play when we need it

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It was Jauss at that point I think
