IGT 05/18 - Mets at Marlins - First Pitch 4:10 PM

[Frayed Knot]

In fairness to Garrett, his "rough outing" as Gary called it consisted of two sort hits and a fly out.

[Edgy MD]

Ottavino coming on for the bottom of the eighth, which kind of suggests that we're going back to Díaz in the ninth.

[Frayed Knot]

That's too close to flip ... which doesn't mean they won't flip it.

[Edgy MD]

I think the evidence suggests that Burger's cleats beat the throw, but his foot did not.

[Cowtipper]

Of Gary, Keith and Ron, I like Gary the least.



Keith is funny, Ron is cerebral, Gary gets hyper and excited over dumb things and his "it's outta here!" is annoying. And the one time he had the chance to come up with a line for the ages, Santana's no-hitter, he managed only a weak "It...has...happuned!", clearly choking in the clutch.

[ashie62]

The ever-changing fortunes of Mark Vientos are on an upswing

[Edgy MD]

Ottavino throws six pitches for six strikes, getting three outs.



Yes, go to him to open the ninth.

[Cowtipper]

Here's a good chance for Diaz to blow the save. Second-worst save percentage in the league since he joined the Mets, by the way.



*among closers with 100+ saves.

[ashie62]

Nimmo punches someone in the face

[Cowtipper]

A thousand years ago, 2000 or so, the Marlins had a starting pitcher named Jesus Sanchez.



I wonder if it's the same guy.

[Edgy MD]

Punch, Nimmo, punch.

[Frayed Knot]

Feel free to take away Edwin's save chance, Mark.

And that goes for the two guys behind you also.

[Cowtipper]

Are they being fistic? Is there actually a rhubarb afoot? I'm watching this on Gameday and can see only words on the screen, as well as little dots.

[Cowtipper]

Oh, well, I guess they got over it, whatever it was.

[ashie62]

I really like what I've seen from JD Martinez this season



I realized it when I was catching up on Schaefer points

[Cowtipper]

"Overrated Edwin" Diaz has the highest ERA on the team, among pitchers with 10+ appearances.

[Cowtipper]

"Overrated Edwin" Diaz has the highest ERA on the team, among pitchers with 10+ appearances.

And despite getting paid the handsome sum of $20 million, he hasn't managed even a single shutout all year.

[Cowtipper]

At .236, Nido's batting average is actually 200 points higher than I thought it would be.

[ashie62]

Two outs to go

[ashie62]

9-6



Pay attention outfield

[Cowtipper]

Well, Diaz just Benitez'ed in another run.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Getting nervous.

[ashie62]

Noivous

[Cowtipper]

Diaz is the 2020s Frank Francisco.

[ashie62]

OMG

[Cowtipper]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA KNEW IT. I just knew it.



This guy sucks.

[ashie62]

I don't believe what I just saw

[Frayed Knot]

Oh My!

Speechless.
