And yeah, kinda disappointed that they didn't go to Nieuwenhuis.

Sore left shoulder sez the booth.

Announcers just said "sore left shoulder." Did I mishear?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Nothing yet on Twitter re: Cespedes but jokes about how there's nothing yet on Twitter re: Cespedes, even from the beat guys, some of whom are retweeting themselves re: the no-news. It's all, like, totally Met-a.

Valadius source failure.

[Edgy MD]

David Ross comes to bat to "Forever Young"?

Sheesh, guys.

[Guest El Segundo Escupidor]

If Jay Gibbons was managing the Mets he'd pull Matz at this point for Harvey.

Edit: And by Jay Gibbons I mean John Gibbons

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Sore left shoulder sounds better than possible oblique injury.

I'm still holding out hope for an update of a possible hang nail or mental boredom with kicking the Cubs collective asses.

[Edgy MD]

When's Duda up again?

[Valadius]

Oblique injury came from someone on Twitter saying they heard it on ESPN. Was all anyone had.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

So down 6 runs and facing elimination, Madden elects to allow the pitcher to hit for himself and then replaces him anyway. Damn, how short a bench does he have, that he can't afford to use a pinch hitter? If you are going to let Woods hit, why not at least send him back out to pitch?

Wood's a decent hitter, as pitchers go, but yeah.

Moments ago...

[Benjamin Grimm]

Soler gets the first hit off the boychik.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

No! No no-no.

[Guest El Segundo Escupidor]

"Can't lift his shoulder" doesn't sound good...

[Benjamin Grimm]

No, it doesn't.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Cubs have their first threat going. Two on, none out.

[Edgy MD]

Credit to the Cubs fans. They're still in it.

Yeah, that's a bit different than sore shoulder.

Oh, and WTF is Matz doing???? Start getting guys out again, please.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Things getting tense now. A double-play grounder would be welcome.

[Valadius]

The Captain flashing the leather!!!

[HahnSolo]

Bad 0-2 pitch to Rizzo

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Glad to trade the run for the out there. Now get Baez and end this inning.

[Edgy MD]

Nice to get Schwarber there, even with the run scoring.

What is this awful, misbegotten auto-tuned walkup music Javier Baez is using. Ugh. Act like a pro, man.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Kid staying calmish. Now he just needs to execute for one more hitter.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Wilmer tracks down a tricky foul pop-up. Only one run for the Cubs.

I can live with that.

[Edgy MD]

Hi, I'm Wilmer Flores. I will now break your heart.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Bases loaded, no out and all you get is one run??? I'm okay with that.
