IGT 08/18 - NYM @ STL - Plodding Along in Ol' St Loo (ll)

[kcmets]

Mets still trying to figure out who the hell is gonna pitch tonight.



Stay tuned, in the meantime...

It's kinda depressing when the MLB site i'm checking out most is

Joey Lucchesi is coming off two abbreviated rehab starts with Brooklyn. It would be a rough ask to send him out there without an appearance or two at Syracuse first.

[kcmets]

There is zero official indication that Lucchesi will be leaving the

witness protection program to toe the rubber tonight.



Stay tuned...

[kcmets]

While we wait... love the bass in this song...

Tonight is the lone 8:15 start in the series.

Yesterday was moved up for network TV and Saturday's game is moved up an hour as well, followed by a day game Sunday.

[kcmets]

I read somewhere that TDB has a nasty slider.

[ashie62]

So does Mendick

[G-Fafif]

Hartwig optioned for the sake of the Churve.

[MFS62]

Game time 8:15 PM.

The other games in the series were earlier because of TV scheduling.

If you're going to miss those FOX announcers from last night, raise your hand.



(time passes .....)



Uh, never mind.

I was about to pen a Valentine to Hartwig. He was pretty good until this week.

[Edgy MD]

Thinking Stubby Clapp thoughts.

[Edgy MD]

Mason Winn!!

[kcmets]

I went up The Arch back in the Bicentennial Kong years.



Top ten favorite memory.



We now return you to the IGT, already in progress,,,

[Frayed Knot]

Edgy MD wrote: Mason Winn!!

Actually, it's Masyn.

And, better than that, it's Masyn Blaze Winn



He is apparently no relation to former big leaguer Randy Winn, nor is Jose Fermin related to Felix.

[ashie62]

Masyn is one of their top prospects



It's a lot easier to watch the Mets now with so much less on the line

[kcmets]

Lucchesi, kinda awesome...

[Frayed Knot]

Pete Alonso: Keepsake Klepto

[Edgy MD]

I thought Clapp was gonna take him down again.

[Edgy MD]

Lucchesi may be a major-leaguer again.

[Edgy MD]

If that last pitch to Walker wasn't strike three, I'm not sure where it was.

[Edgy MD]

Slick Bick, you devil, you.

Which would be, I suppose, better than being taken down by the clap.

[Edgy MD]

I'm all good with the bunt there.



I don't know what they're booing Alonso over. It's them that he threw the ball to.

[Edgy MD]

The second-baseman was WAY over by second.
