[Edgy MD]

Mets like to run the bases too.

[ashie62]

Downtown Brown..doin the bunt tang..

[Fman99]

OK, two shots to get it here, Byrd bunted up to second by Brown.

As was I
Don't mind the 'no doubles' idea in concept but, like Ronnie said, sometimes teams over-do it.

Whitestone, man. Fuckin' Whitestone.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Baxter has some big white stones.

[ashie62]

I'm telling you, he is a super fielder.

Hey, Baxter did it again. Bobby Pee now 4-0.

[Zvon]

I get it now. Baxter only steps up when everything is on the line!

[Frayed Knot]

OK, I'll admit to NOT wanting to PH Baxter for Lagares there ... but the pull-shift they had on him is what got that hit through.

[ashie62]

PI-ED

Wow, that's wacky stuff.

Baxter's so good I'm going to have a drink in his honor.
Or maybe two. Or m ...

To me, that's the way it should be.

A top reliever employed most effectively shouldn't be compiling 35-50 saves, but rather 20-25 saves and 14-18 wins.

Turned out to be the glove appearance of the night too.
We have, among other things, been getting 'out-gloved' lately, particularly in the OF

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

That's why you all have to drop what you're doing and join me on the Lagares Bandwagon. Unless or until his hitting is sustainably atrocious (talking 75-100 more ABs), he's got to be, with apologies to Jordany Valdespin, the Man Right Now.

Duda, Lagares, Baxter, mix in Brown and Byrd as needed, dump Valdespin for Satin.

[Edgy MD]

I'm in no hurry to dump Valdespin for Satin.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Yeah, crazy to dump Valdespin for Satin, we don;t need another RH hitter and besides Muffy looks like he could use a blow at 2B.

I don't like Jordany as an infielder and I don't like Turner as the 4-position backup either. Satin is hitting, but sure, grab a lefty.

Ceetar wrote: I don't like Jordany as an infielder

Neither do I full-time, but no one is asking him to be full-time there.

and I don't like Turner as the 4-position backup either.

As long as he's hitting .350 (.378 actually) I like my Turner anywhere I can get him. Five positions, btw, including LF the other night.

Satin is hitting, but sure, grab a lefty.

Brown was hitting when we called him up too, as was Lagares.
