I'm not sure this Young guy is a great CF yet like Gary's been saying. He's taken some odd routes tonight but has been

able to out-run mmost of his mistakes. Got beat on that gapper by Tyrone though.

Hang on here

[ashie62]

That's one out

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Two. Sweating.

[ashie62]

Good lord, here we go

[Lefty Specialist]

They had a chance to give Diaz a night off with a five-run lead, but no. Maybe they should entice Billy Wagner out of retirement.

[ashie62]

Enough with trumpets



Good Lord



Wtf

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Insane.

[Frayed Knot]

1st to home on two pitches ....

This game will probably end at some point. Hope it ends well.

[ashie62]

Yeesh



A win is a win

[Lefty Specialist]

Books. But oy.

I have this rule about pulling a pitcher throwing a one-hit shutout.



Every time I do, I PUNCH MYSELF IN THE FACE.

[kcmets]

Not pretty, but a W is W... long live los Mets de Nueva York.

Just hold still, the bullpen will throw the punch for you, they might not throw very well, though.

Can't remember ever seeing a 2-base Wild Pitch



Wasn't ever worried since they never got the tying run to the plate.

[Lefty Specialist]

If this team gets up 10-0, they should keep stealing, taking the extra base and trying to add on. If the other team complains, just say, "Have you SEEN our bullpen?"

[Fman99]

Nothing is easy with this pen. Missed most of this one due to attending the Syracuse Mets game and watching Kodai Senga's rehab appearance, but was in the car for the 8th and home for the 9th, which I sweated out with the rest of yall

[MFS62]

The bloom has come off Reid Garrett's rose.

Or ... they can opt not to use their bullpen, embracing their good fortune when their pitcher is throwing a one-hit shutout.

But....don't major leaguers spontaneously combust when they reach 100 pitches?

[Edgy MD]

I certainly would support testing that theory.

No, but manager assholes (I could have reversed that) seem to ignite at 90.

I wonder if the planned six man rotation will loosen up the reins on unstated pitch count limits.

It's being put in mainly for Senga's benefit and probably for Peterson and Crash Christian too.

But if Manaea, Severino, and Quintana are going to make fewer starts maybe those starts will

be allowed to last a bit longer if they know that the recovery time will be longer too.

[Cowtipper]

Finished watching this one earlier.



The bullpen sux!
