I think I'm DFA'ing Kimbrel fairly shortly 

[duan]

I think that's a swing. 

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

can we do it 5 minutes ago

[Cowtipper]

I think Kimbrel just lost his spot on the team. 

[ashie62]

It's hard to get batters out throwing 93-94

[Edgy MD]

I left to walk the dogs with the Mets tied 2-2.

What did you people do?

[duan]

LETS GO METS! 

[duan]

we could really use Alvarez NOT hitting into a double play. 

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

LETS GO

[duan]

so now we have the 5th choice shortstop with our final 3 strikes. 

[duan]

I think i might boo. 

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah, getting back to 500 will take weeks and weeks

[Edgy MD]

Brujan had no business going up swinging there.

[Edgy MD]

Benge shouldn't have been swinging either, for that matter.

[Fman99]

Come to CIti Field for a commemorate Craig Kimbrel jersey, complete with giant fork sticking out of the back between his numbers 

[seawolf17]

Yeah, the Kimbrel Era should be over.

by the way, until i saw him for the mets, if you'd asked me I'd have sworn that Craig Kimbrel was a lefty. 

You're probably morphing together him and Billy Wagner; two smallish, hard-throwing relievers with great primes mostly for NL teams before spending their later years on a series of short stints with multiple clubs including, eventually, the Mets.

If they get there at all. 

[Frayed Knot]

Just spitballin' here, but getting six hits (5 singles) and going 1/9 w/RiSP while issuing seven walks doesn't seem like a winning formula anywhere but particularly not in Coors. Running out of both mound visits and ABS challenges before the 6th inning was out didn't help neither.

 

[Centerfield]

This was a big game. Their first chance to finally build some momentum and bite into this huge hole. Instead it’s more of the same. 
 

We were lucky to get a good start from Scott. But that lineup of retreads and never beens gave us no shot.

I don't know that he's done or not, but just as AJ Minter seemed about done with his rehab assignments, he was set back by a sore hip.

[metirish]

Didn't see any of this game
