[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Brigham getting r done

[metirish]

I really enjoyed Buck saying "and we all know why we are playing this game late afternoon" Cone enjoyed it too



Anyway , good conversation regarding Max , rosin , alcohol, sweat etc

[metirish]

Yeses HR Alvarez

Two things can be true:

You're a top-level prospect

and

You are not ready to hit in the majors.

Yeah, I think he needs to go find himself again because he's just not

in a good looking spot right now.

[Edgy MD]

Álvarez just needed somebody unhittable to unload upon.

[Gwreck]

=bmfc1 post_id=123290 time=1682297466 user_id=73]because this game is starting late thanks to your network, Buster

[kcmets]

Home plate ump has a giant get-away-day strike zone.

[Edgy MD]

Brigham is looking like somebody who wants to be a late-inning option.

[Edgy MD]

It's cool to face twins consecutively in the same game. Taylor and Tyler are not only twins, and not even merely identical Twins. They belong to the extra-rare category of mirror-image identical twins. Plus, beyond the novelty, we came out on top, with Álvarez homering off the really good one.



The only thing that would have made it cooler was if it happened while we were playing The Twins.

[Edgy MD]

Radio Broadcasting Mets-Giants Game: "And the go-ahead run is scoring position ... for Michael Conforto."



Me: "YAY!! I mean ... BOOOO!!!"

Gosh, Pham is pretty popular here in San Francisco.

lol.



This has the feel of a game they'll let get away. They really blew some chances early.

[Lefty Specialist]

.....and just like that.....

[Fman99]

Dammit

[Edgy MD]

Shmelb.



Won 7 of 10 on the West Coast, but come home on a shmelb.

[bmfc1]

It's hard to win when your SP can't give you even 5 innings w/o giving up 4+ runs but we're going to have Peterson and Megill (+ Senga who is having trouble getting out of the 5th inning) for at least another week.



(The comment about the ESPN start time was actually from Buck to Buster in the annoying in-game interview.)

[kcmets]

Shoulda coulda swept the A's. Prolly shoulda took 3 of 4 in San Fran.



Good road trip, the Mets don't normally have good west coast swings

so whatever. They had one. It's April, and virtually tied for first.



I don't usually like off days but I welcome one tomorrow.

[Edgy MD]

Wait ... they did sweep the A's. I think you are referring to the Dodgers series.

Of course, and like I said I clearly need a day off.

[nymr83]

Hard not to be satisfied with this west coast trip, now let's get Verlander and Scherzer in the rotation together and build some steam
