Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Álvarez bÁtting lÁst ÁgÁin as the Mets go with three consecutive lefty batters in front of him.Houston, in contrast, has only one lefty in the lineup against Scherzer.[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/houston-astros-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]=#EB6E1F]1[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Jose Altuve (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]2b[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]2[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Starling Marte (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]rf[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]2[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Alex Bregman (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]3b[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]3[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Francisco Lindor (S)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]ss[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]3[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Kyle Tucker (L)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]rf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]4[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Pete Alonso (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]1b[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]4[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Jose Abreu (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]1b[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]5[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Tommy Pham (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]lf[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]5[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Yainer Diaz (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]dh[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]6[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Jeff McNeil (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]2b[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]6[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Chas McCormick (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]lf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]7[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Daniel Vogelbach (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]dh[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]7[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Jeremy Pena (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]ss[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]8[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Brett Baty (L)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]3b[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]8[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Jake Meyers (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]cf[/TD][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910]9[/TD][TD]=#002D72]Francisco Alvarez (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]c[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]9[/TD][TD]=#002D62]Martin Maldonado (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]c[/TD][/TR][TR][TH][/TH][TH]Pitcher[/TH][TH][/TH][TH][/TH][TH]Pitcher[/TH][TH][/TH][/TR][TR][TD]=#FF5910][/TD][TD]=#002D72]Max Scherzer (R)[/TD][TD]=#FF5910]sp[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F][/TD][TD]=#002D62]Hunter Brown (R)[/TD][TD]=#EB6E1F]sp[/TD][/TR][/TABLE]

ashie62 Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Author Posted June 19, 2023 Garish as they are I like the Astros unis
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Daniel is not here for your Vogeldoubts.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 It's a Bugs Bunny Bat-a-Round!!
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 I think the 'Stros unis are mad dumb
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 I think the 'Stros unis are mad dumbOr "El Stinko," according to KeithSpanish.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Applause to whoever has been positioning Pham this inning.
Johnny Lunchbucket Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 I'm like. How is Scherzer gonna cough this up
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Even the camera guys are in a slump.On both Lindor's HR and that FO by Tucker the camera shot is aimed at the second deck in RF
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Yeah, those are not the live shots they should be using.Scherzer, on the other hand, looks like the guy they are paying for.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 It's pretty crazy how hard it has been for Buck to sit Pham down. Two weeks ago, they'd have put McNeil in left.He's already stealing playing time from Canha, and now he's keeping Guillorme and Escobar out of the lineup.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Maldanado, of all people, gets the second hit for the Astros.
Lefty Specialist Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Scherzer pitching like he heard me talking smack about him.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 I'm just taking it one batter at a time. Win the game first and the bullpen will be fine.And the shutout dies on that note.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Randy Johnson's FA contract with the DBacks rivals Scherzer's w/Nats for best value.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 "Hartwig's a great story. He went undrafted and he was going to go to med school. Then the Mets called and two years later, he's on a big league roster."My God! Med school! Oh, cursed fate!
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Álvarez is staying in the game, but I'm suspecting he won't be out there next inning. Or tomorrow.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Get your bets in. Does Scherzer come out for the ninth?If so, does he finish it?

Win the game first and the bullpen will be fine.And the shutout dies on that note.that fine, there are 6 runs on our side for once - he can go 9 and give up 2 and we'll be fine. just give the bullpen a break and build momentum here - a win and rested relievers is a great formula
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 So this Astros' sponsor OXY,is that a gasoline, a laundry product, or have they taken it onto themselves to hawk addictive street drugs?

bmfc1 Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) So unless this gets really bad in the 9th, Buck didn't use Robertson for a 2d inning yesterday so the BP wouldn't be further shorthanded tonight... and Robertson wasn't needed tonight. Edited June 19, 2023 by Guest
nymr83 Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Lindor just doubled off the wall on what i thought was an easy flyout
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 We're gonna get ourselves some smokin' hot Grant Hartwig action.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted June 19, 2023 Posted June 19, 2023 Our second Bugs Bunny bat-a-round of the game.Bunching their hits, not something they've done a lot of this year.
Zach Thornton Syracuse Mets - AAA LHP On Sunday, the southpaw tossed five shutout innings as the bulk pitcher. He gave up 2 hits, walked 2 and had 5 strikeouts. Explore Zach Thornton News >
