I'm just saying.

Maximizing their run potential in this inning. Nice to see for a change.

Very Metsy for Vientos to get hurt right before the trade deadline, by the way.

Vientos is a low BA & low OBP guy that strikes out far too much.  He doesn't run well and is a defensive liability wherever they try to play him, but he does have power.  Seriously, who would want to trade for Vientos for a stretch run?  If someone actually wanted him, I doubt the Mets could expect much for him.

That said, I hope he wasn't seriously hurt with that HBP on his wrist/hand.

A starting pitcher in the seventh inning.

I have the vapors.

[The Hot Corner]

I didn't think the Mets allowed such a thing.  

Keeping his pitch count down certainly helps.  Currently, at 86 pitches through 6.6 innings.

[The Hot Corner]

Soto with his lazy defense turns a single into 3 bases.

[Edgy MD]

Well, two.

Good time for bullpen action now.

[The Hot Corner]

Soto's gaffe immediately costs the Mets.  May prevent Manea from getting out of the 7th.

Bad typing (pecking) skills.

[Edgy MD]

Thanks, Tolbert!

[Edgy MD]

Thanks, Soto!

[The Hot Corner]

Soto attones for his lackadaisical defense with a bomb to RF.

[Edgy MD]

The Nelson story is always welcome, but Joe Pigatano was not Casey's bullpen coach.

On the other hand, he was a 1962 Mets backup catcher, so he may well have been the guy to pick up the phone.

[Edgy MD]

Lindor comes in after all.

[Edgy MD]

Thanks for swinging at ball four, Caglione.

[Edgy MD]

TAKE THAT, 2015 ROYALS!!

[seawolf17]

Eleven and a half out of a wild card spot. Got 'em right where we want 'em.

[Frayed Knot]

The Mets winned the game!!
