Despite his recent power display, I'd still like to see McNeil gone by the All-Star Break.

Giving up one run on five walks and six strikeouts sounds like something of a Ron Darling special.

[Edgy MD]

Ottavino in the game and Alex Young in the hole sounds like the Mets aren't exactly looking to their A-Team in the bullpen tonight.



Not quite the B-Team, either.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

All-Star beak?



Ottavino scares me. I'd be happy if he proves me wrong.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Ottavino is junk.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Dammit. He's not proving me wrong.

[Lefty Specialist]

Ottasucko. His uniform number equals his value.

Let the Alex Young ERA begin

What is that little whistle when Mets strike out?

The PC Richard song. "Ask your neighbor about PC Richard/The TV, audio appliance giants."

[Edgy MD]

Man, Alex was nibbly, but he got it done.

The PC Richards theme. They sponsor Yankee strikeouts.

You're the Babe Ruth of wrong-threading tonight

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, but I'm the Ty Cobb of merging.

[Frayed Knot]

So the Yanx follow up their (attendance mandatory) God Bless America rendition with Bohemian Rhapsody?!?

Was the corpse of George Steinbrenner consulted about this?

[Edgy MD]

Well, God bless Bohemia is a worthy sentiment to me.

[Edgy MD]

Intentionally walk Judgey?

[whippoorwill]

The PC Richard thing is a cute gimmick but maybe not so much when it's against the Mets

[Edgy MD]

It's funny, but it seems like in the era of the automatic intentional walk, the intentional walk has been a lot more uncommonly used.

[metirish]

To my surprise this is on the Max app (HBO ) TNT feed

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

You're DED

[Frayed Knot]

Nunez for President!!!!

[Lefty Specialist]

Gotta get something here.

[Edgy MD]

Torrens needs revens.

[Frayed Knot]

I agree with sticking with Torrens here.

Alvarez is cold and there's still a 9th inning so there may yet be a spot to use him later.

[Gwreck]

Alvarez has to hit for Taylor here, right? Unless Alvarez is hurt?

[Edgy MD]

DJ should get this at-bat.
