Do not care for Vogelbach in there tonight



I understand there is a logjam of players at the moment but they did not bring up Vientos to sit as often as he is

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Vogelbach's a legend. He's drawing a ton of walks. He's not the problem with the Mets.

[ashie62]

I'd like to shoehorn Vientos into Pham's spot but that doesn't seem doable now

Vogelbach is frustrating.

He's not hitting for power and he gets caught window shopping for third strikes too often (like a younger Nimmo) including twice last night.

On the other hand, even with the two K's on Thursday, he still got on base in his other two PAs (walk and a single) and that pace, along

with his season long 37.2% on-base rate, has value in it. It also puts him right up there with Nimmo & McNeal [.373, .372, .370] for tops

on the team, a full 29 points ahead of Pete and a full 50 to 70 ticks above every other player on the squad*.

Don't be too quick to dismiss such stuff.









* not including Michael Perez and Omar Narvaez and their combined 21 ABs

8:40 PM start.



Later

[ashie62]

Im guessing Max will be limited to 80-90 pitches tonight. That may become a trend for him

Brandon Nimmo looking to build on his career .364 / .400 / .582 // .982 line at Coors.

[Edgy MD]

First-inning runs!!



For the Mets!!!

Runs scored

Nice D

[Edgy MD]

Outfield defense brought to you by Genesis — because some defenders have an invisible touch.

[Edgy MD]

Curves don't really break here, Max.

[Edgy MD]

Seeing Álvarez hit by a pitch is kind of scary.



Can you imagine him if he lost it?

[ashie62]

Bags still juiced

[ashie62]

Unreal

[Edgy MD]

No, it's real.



Great job by Seabold.

[Edgy MD]

Dwight Gooden used to change his uni top a lot during games.

[Edgy MD]

And Gary mentions Gooden also.

[Frayed Knot]

Well that was a disappointing half inning.

3 Ks sandwiched around a BB, HBP, and E, and all three Ks were ahead in the count.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo could have taken that triple standing up. He seemed to brake around second briefly.

[Edgy MD]

Rockies are having infield exchange problems.



Throwing like one of the Mets old-timer's teams from last year.

[Edgy MD]

None of the front page Google results when searching for "bobblehead jinx" reference the Mets.

[Edgy MD]

Scherzer with 71 pitches through five innings.

[Edgy MD]

And it's 85 pitches through six.
