IGT 8/13 Mets vs Braves Senga @ Chirinos

[Edgy MD]

When I read "Omar Narváez Flies out to Michael Harris II," it reads like it's the sequel to him flying out to Harris earlier in the game.

[Frayed Knot]

Do you suppose it would fuck up the Braves karma if announcers were to start calling them Ronald Acuna II and Michael Harris Jr.?

[Frayed Knot]

Just don't let the the tying run get to the plate.

These guys have bat boys who own double digit HR totals.

[Frayed Knot]

Or do it on the very next pitch, either way.



Mets have about a 5% chance of winning this game.

I dunno know if this is what happened there, but Buck has been letting some of his better relievers atrophy the last several games.

[Frayed Knot]

I'd feel better with a couple more runs here.

I'd feel safe with 15 or 16 more.

[Edgy MD]

A little insurance is a lot to ask.



I ask.

So we won one of four which ain't great but it's something, especially since the Pythagorean projection based on our RS v RA suggests that we should have gone 0-9 during the four game series.

Ottavino — the guy they didn't trade.



Bring on the Pirates!!

A 21-3 loss goes a long Pythagorean way. The Pythagorean calcs should discount runs scored off a position player.

My confidence in this team is so shaken that I went to bed when Drew Smith came in. I couldn't bear to watch the bullpen fumble another game away.

Buck has sat down Alvarez on recent nationally televised games. (IIRC its the last two or three in a row)

If he's going to be considered for ROY, I would think he needs more national exposure. Let the announcers tell the country that he's leading all catchers in HR.
