IGT Mets at D-Bags Mon 5/5 9:40 PM

[Fman99]

First pitch around the same time I'm putting on my jammy jams for bed. Griffin Canning takes the bump against "R. Nelson." Which could be anybody.



I legit hope to make it to the end of the first inning.

[Benjamin Grimm]

R. Nelson is a travelin' man who's made a lot of stops all over the world.

Could be Ricky Nelson if he didn't get on Buddy Holly Airlines prior

[metirish]

I'll catch an inning or two

[Fman99]

Though he's not in the lineup tonight, this Winker injury is Baty's shot, much like the one he gave Vientos last season. Unexpected call up, after some time to find his swing in the bush leagues, and a chance to prove he's not a bust.

[metirish]

Mets down 1



The catching gear Alvarez wears is awful looking, get some Mets colors on

[Centerfield]

Yeah. That gear sucks.



Let's get some hits guys.

[Centerfield]

Mets are are playing some terrible baseball the past week and a half.

[Frayed Knot]

I thought that was a bad send in most circumstances, but particularly so with Soto coming up.

We hit into enough DPs as it is. No sense in running into even more.

See? If they had held Taylor at 3rd then Soto would have walked and Pete's HR would have been a 3R HR ... Proof Positive!!!!

[Edgy MD]

Keith doesn't remember what a square root is, doesn't care, and is kind of angry that he was ever taught it in the first place.



Hanging out at Mar-a-Lago can really fuck you up in the head.

[kcmets]

I wonder how Keef feels about Pi?

[Edgy MD]

That's probably a pretty good question.



Canning gone after 82.

[kcmets]

Ty Tay is on fire!

[kcmets]

Lind BOOM Bah!!!

[Edgy MD]

Classick Lindor BOMB.

[Edgy MD]

Well, Keith's argument about not using a righthanded sidearmer against lefties is not lost.



On the other hand, I think he's made his point.

[Edgy MD]

It seems to be against some latter-day rule to seriously try a guy in the rotation once he has opened the season as a reliever, but Huascar should be given a chance Huastart when an opening occurs.

[Edgy MD]

Everybody get out your Deniel stuff!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Ded man walking the leadoff hitter

[Edgy MD]

This is a less-cool version of Ded.

[Centerfield]

Two 3-2 sliders that missed.



Throw fucking strikes.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Let's turn 3

Ded man walking back to the bench.

[Edgy MD]

I thought Naylor was only supposed to hit into double-plays.

[Edgy MD]

Deddie has one of those infinite ERAs that those old-timers in the park speak about in hushed tones.

[Centerfield]

Interesting strategy to get the DBacks to burn their closer in a loss.

[Edgy MD]

I guess this is going to be they re-introduce Diaz to protecting a lead in the ninth.

[Edgy MD]

Thirdbaseman way off the line with a lefty on the mound.



Perfect time for Luisangel to steal some home.
