[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Final Tuesday Night Mets tilt of the year. We upgraded to the 300s for this one

Alonso is a quality Tuesday Night player; he whalloped his club record homer on a Tuesday last year, so I'm fully expecting 1 or 3 homers tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Are you in homerun territory?

Because after the LWFS family recovered the Alvarez homer, I think our group is kinda hot right now.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

The TNMC has been around and decided behind home plate is the place to be

[Edgy MD]

The Mets are taking the field tonight with a career .136 batting average against guys named "Shane Baz."

If  Encarnacion-Strand gets on base and doesn't score, does he have to change his name to  Encarnacion-Stranded?

Im following this to Draftkings

[Fman99]

Oh good a Merck commercial. 

I'm gonna take a quick break and go Merck off in the corner 

[ashie62]

A late season Fman appearance 

[Edgy MD]

I'm telling you, Alonso hasn't come to town to set a mark.  He's come to town to lose one.

[Edgy MD]

Shane Baz
Brett Baty

Both #12 overall picks.

[Edgy MD]

Howie is telling the story of how Orioles catcher Pozo had a son born with serious health complications, the year COVID shut down the minor leagues.  He lost his salary, he lost his health insurance, and their family was living out of a car in Orlando, FL.

A story of perseverance, sure, but Howie is missing the point about what a disgrace it is for his then organization (the Rangers), for baseball, for Florida, and for the United States.

[Edgy MD]

Bo Bichette hits pitchers.

[Edgy MD]

Manaea out after only 67 pitches.  What's the point of conserving your pitches if the manager is going to hook you anyhow?

The added insult is that he got hooked with one out and nobody on because Alonso was up, making him look soft.

And Howie has twice now called Austin Warren (who whiffed Alonso on three pitches) "Will Warren."  Is that some hockey guy he's confused over?
