IGT 7/27 - Mets vs. MFCards - Turn this thing around

[Willets Point]

This is the game that will go down in history as the start of 'the streak.'

[batmagadanleadoff]

I'm with you. I haven't given up. They're six games out of the WC and it's still July. Give up? Tug McGraw would be rolling over in his grave if he heard any of this give up talk.

I'm not ready to discuss the Wild Card before September 20th.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Baseball Prospectus gives the Mets a 7.27046 per cent chance of making the playoffs. (4.30876 for the division, 2.96171 for the wild card.) That's down just over 16 points from seven days ago.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Is that the same Baseball Prospectus that gave the Mets a 99.64% chance of making the playoffs on September 20, 2007? They're not credible.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I don't think that's a reflection on their credibility; it's a reflection on how badly the Mets blew it.

[batmagadanleadoff]

I guess that my little joke wasn't that funny.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I couldn't tell if you were serious or not. I do remember, though, that there were some here who thought that the Mets collapse actually did undermine Baseball Prospectus' credibility.

Six summers ago, I was at Shea for young David Wright's first major league hit.

Tomorrow night, I will be at Citi Field for the debut of our new managing/coaching team, the group that will lead us to Valhalla in October.

I'm the answer, folks. ME.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Be sure to pick up Bobby Valentine or Davey Johnson on your way to Flushing.

Hey guys? Maybe I should start an IGT. My record this year is totally clean.

[TransMonk]

The game's on MLB Network for out-of-towners.

In fact, this whole series is nationally televised as they will be on ESPN Wednesday then back to MLB Network for the gay dame on Thursday.

I get after Valadius' 15 in a row. My record is clean too, but 9-3 in person.

Bay needs an off-day again? How bad is he hurt?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Is G in the house tonight?

[Ceetar]

Bay has a "mild" concussion that he first started feeling (reporting) on the plane ride home.

Call me a glutton for punishment. Yes, of course.

Per Kevin Burkhardt twitter:

Jason Bay has mild concussion. Felt symptoms on plane ride home from west coast. Essentially out this series, maybe more. Good times.

Also Jerry's been suspended for tonight's game as a result of the umpire incident in LA. (Source: Andy McCulloch twitter).

Dave Jauss says: "I was worried about being axed on the plane ride home, but now look at me! I'm managing, biatch!"

Except Bay had started to hit in the Dodger series, and was pretty much the offense on Saturday and Sunday.
