I've Got My Ticket for a Game Two Post-Season IGT, NYM@MIL, 2024-10-02

[Edgy MD]

Lefthanded pitching monster Sean Manaea takes the mound against Frankie Montas as the Mets look to bring it on home against the Brewers.

Manaea got knocked around pretty good by these guys last Friday. Hopefully he's more on point tonight. I think he'll shine.

[ashie62]

Manaea will be fine. The Brewers ground game is top shelf but the Mets starting pitching is superior to them and most of the other tournament teams



Frankie Montas? Seriously? Tee time!!!

[Benjamin Grimm]

I keep thinking that "Frankie Montas" is a teenage sitcom actor. (Who am I actually thinking of?)



Anyway, if the Mets win tonight, Front Row Amy will be sad.



And I'm okay with that.

ESPN has the odds at 52.6% Brewers, 47.4% Mets. I'm guessing the Brewers being home accounts for some of that.



Frankie Montas.

4.55 ERA. 1.256 WHIP.

4 IP, 2ER last time out against the Mets.



Sean Manaea

3.47 ERA. 1.084 WHIP.

As Fman mentioned, knocked around his last outing against the Brewers.



Brewers have the much, much better bullpen.

Is Front Row Amy some retired porn queen or something? I

figured I'd ask first before googling and then getting Front Row

Amy ads everywhere in Chrome for the next two weeks.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Apparently she's just a fan who's been sitting in that seat at almost every game since 2012. There's a song about her and she's even had her own Bobbleheads doll. No indication that she's a porn star. (Sorry!)

Probably Frankie Muniz, who played the lead role in "Malcom in the Middle" for many years.



Front Row Amy is stupid. Slap some big tits on me and put me in the front row, I'll be your bobblehead meme fodder

[metirish]

Very cool, hopefully not needed

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

How I am just learning just now the Mets get no home games in this series

[Benjamin Grimm]

It's for the same reason that they had no road games in the 2022 Wild Card Series.

[Centerfield]

Some more info on Montas.



Postseason:

3 games pitched. Two with Oakland, one with the Yankees. 9.45 ERA, 1.65 WHIP



At Home:

1-7. 4.95 ERA. 1.381 WHIP.



Second Half:

3-4. 4.38 ERA 1.328 WHIP.



IP last 5 outings:

4, 2.2, 5.2, 6, 6



What does all this mean? Probably nothing.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think it means we have a decent shot.

Next home game, Lord willing, would be Tuesday Oct 8 hosting Philly in the NLDS game 3 (game time TBA, likely based on time zone considerations).

[ashie62]

Not one home game. Ughh



These wild card series are truly low rent

Front row Amy has a bad case of turkey neck

[Edgy MD]

Mostly the same lineup they sent up against Montas last week, except then they used Winker in right instead of Marte.

[MFS62]

In Mendoza we trust.

Later

[Benjamin Grimm]

The Orioles and Royals are still playing. I suppose the start of the game will be bumped to ESPN2

[Benjamin Grimm]

And there's the official announcement.



See you on ESPN2.

[ashie62]

Im listening to a sloppy looking announcer named Booth



I miss you both

[Cowtipper]

I hope the Mets win.

[Cowtipper]

Mets score first!

[metirish]

Have to say I like Jon Sciambi and Doug Glanville. Certainly better than Karl and crew

[Fman99]

Right out of the gate! Would love nothing more than a big first inning to take this crowd out of things
