Doesn't anyone wait any amount of time for a winning thread to go up????

I was going to.do this here

[ashie62]

There is a competing non traditional thread up so take your pick. Nolan MacLean goes for the Mets while Texas is still figuring it out

LGM!

Bump

[MFS62]

I'm setting the over/ under for the runs scored for McLean at 1.5. The TVD guy has been revealed to be a lefty named Braford who is 0-5 4.19 with a 1.5 WHIP. Sounds like an opener to me.

So if I click the green banner to join the IGT I’m forbidden 

[Centerfield]

Good start by McLean. 

[Centerfield]

Soto!!!

[Edgy MD]

Special key to that Soto homer was the Lindor single beforehand sneaking past two gloves.

[Edgy MD]

I'm dubious about the hot dog.

[Centerfield]

That segment became less annoying as the Mets games become more and more irrelevant. 

[Edgy MD]

They continue to pitch Alvarez down, and he continues to punish it.

It's like a single scouting report reached everybody except the Rangers.

[Centerfield]

I don’t understand how that’s an error. Was not routine and the ball was caught. 

[Edgy MD]

Bad scoring is how.   It certainly would have taken a superlative effort to get him.

[Centerfield]

Settle down Nolan. 

[Centerfield]

The walk was the worst part there. 

[Edgy MD]

Alvarez getting pitched down in the zone again.

[Frayed Knot]

Error was later reversed.

And now the error in judgement in pitch location to Alvarez continues.

[Edgy MD]

Nobody.  Knows.  How.

To bunt.

[Edgy MD]

The Mets could have put Baty or Mauricio up there, or just let him swing with the hope that his speed would keep them out of the double-play.

Sacrificing the out is nothing compared to sacrificing the man by not teaching him how to bunt right.

[Edgy MD]

And if he got the guy to third, he'da scored on that fly by Lindorino.

[Centerfield]

I thought Lindor got that one. 

[Edgy MD]

Simmmmmmy!!

If home run hitters get to drive Cadillacs what do good bunters get?

the runner over. 
later

[Edgy MD]

Not Mets bunters, they don't.

And look, it's Devin Williams.

[Fman99]

Christ how awful is Alvarez with the challenges ?

There's going to be a lot of data to look at come the end of the season.

[Edgy MD]

Cionel up for the save!

Money!
