Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 You know those games where the Mets string together some baserunners, then get those two-out hits, and thusly are able to pull out a close one in spite of overall offensive inertia?This is looking like the other kind.
Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 3-hit days when the team's getting routed, 7 LOB when they aren't. I don't mean to be all MFY-fan here... but is it me, or does the Bay give off a very mythical-clutchless-A-Rod-only-minus-the-power kind of aroma these days?
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Jason Bay, with three hits tonight, has his batting average up into a robust .241. It's rally time!
Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 I swear the kid has looked at six or seven 1-1 strikes over the last three games he's been in. Is Duda afraid to swing at strikes when he's ahead in the count or something?Either way... bring me a Lutz, man. I'm done with this.

Guest metsguyinmichigan Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 I've pretty much decided that Manny Acosta sucks.
Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 QUESTION 1:Was pitching Air Acosta against these Rangers in a home-run-friendly park supposed to be, like, a challenge assignment from Collins?QUESTION 2:What time is Manny's flight tomorrow?QUESTION 3:Why not Frankie here? Makes just about as much sense as Acosta with the game still within reach, doesn't it?
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Wow. Maybe not having TV access to this game isn't something to bitch about.

Guest themetfairy Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Demoralizing game - we were out of it from the start.
Guest themetfairy Guests Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 The post-game fireworks were nice, though -

There were a couple of times that the Mets almost knocked a few in and made it closer. Reyes DP for one, and that's an out-lier for sure. Of course, then they put Acosta in.Pick themselves up and get after it today.
