It's actually Alex Wood (Travis is the one on the Cubs).
Alex is a 23 y/o rookie making his 22nd ML appearance, his 7th ML start, and 3rd ML start vs the Mets.

He started the 1st game of the June 18th DH but was pulled after just 3 innings down 1-0
He started again on July 26 and we chased him in the 5th while the Mets were leading 4-3.
Mets went on the win both games.
He's sporting a 2.61 ERA; 1.026 WHiP overall.

It's a Niese day for a Met winning.
It's a Niese day to start again!

wouldn't it be good
to beat Alex Wood

[Edgy MD]

Every time I see you falling
I get down on my Niese and pray!

[metirish]

Just wanted to ask.....how fecking good is Lagares out there? ....and do pitchers have that thought in their heads when pitching?

[G-Fafif]

I assume Lagares caught that question, as he catches everything else.

He didn't walk right in to it like me though

[Vic Sage]

no he doesn't walk much at all.

[Edgy MD]

Nobody tracking this? Scoreless tie in the fourth.

Niese was untouched until just now when Andrelton Simmons singled and Lagares pegged him going for two.

[Edgy MD]

SATINBOMB! 15 rows back. Mets up 1-0.

[Zvon]

Talk about timing.

[dinosaur jesus]

Satin's home run a mirror image of Davis's last night.

[Edgy MD]

Rosenberg and Lewinsky are filling the booth with Jewish inside jokes and laughing themselves silly.

"I'll say it again. You don't get material like this with John and Susan."

[Zvon]

B.J. continues to suck, and good thing too.


I don't feel for him in the least Garr.

[Zvon]

[crossout:2b3nz49u]Agee[/crossout:2b3nz49u] doubles!. Lagares!

[Zvon]

ooo,holy shit. ooooo, that was bad.

[Edgy MD]

Jason Heyward takes it on the helmet. Not good, considering how far off the plate he stands.

[Zvon]

Heyward hit in the side of the face with a fastball. Flap must have been involved or he'd be out cold. Jaw? He walks off himself. Whew, that was scary.

[Edgy MD]

And Niese gets seeming rattled, and the two-out, two-strike HbP turns out to be the tying run.

[Zvon]

Who's gonna win the 2013 METS slower than shit award?
Satin or Flores. Buck should be in the running as well.

[Frayed Knot]

Braves are going to get pissed at us if we keep picking off their players like this.
First EY takes out Hudson, now Niese and Heyward.

[Zvon]

lol. u see Murphy with the deek on the line single to right? He's a crazy man

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I have a sad feeling that this is where the game slips away. Second and third, one out...

[Zvon]

Upton does something good for the team and then tries to get out of doing it. A different kind of crazy.

[Edgy MD]

I'm afraid Lagares is gonna get the payback pitch.
