IGT 6/25/16 - Game #73 Mets @ Braves

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

wow. Love baseball.

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Phew!

[Frayed Knot]

Wait a minute, the batter was only out by six strides at 1st so the Braves may want to have the play reviewed.

Kelly Johnson > Eric Campbell.

Woo hoo, the Mets win (almost despite themselves). Great game by DeGrom and the bullpen.

Wow. I don't think I've ever seen you "woo=hoo" before.

What a boringly good game.

Did the guy in the tunnel signal for it or are they saving it?

Four of them tonight.
The difference with that last one is that Familia is as likely to screw it up as not. The Walker/Cabrera ones I'm not so worried about.

[Centerfield]

Alejandro, Skipper wants to see you in his office.

Seriously.

[Centerfield]

Oh, and the lead is down to two. How fast things can turn around. Suddenly the Mets are surging and the Nats are plummeting.

I'm thankful for two things:

-The Mets won.

-I don't have to listen to Verducci any longer.

Not necessarily in that order.

"As soon as Conforto finds his swing, you'll be out of here!"

This. My god. Insufferable.

Last year he was a lucky charm, and tonight he was magically delicious. � Josh Lewin on Kelly Johnson

That's a pretty good line.

"That's why the Mets like Matt Reynolds so much!"
Ha, really? I watch them every day and I haven't noticed that.

On a 3-1 count Julio throws one high and tight that Cespedes swings at, making it 3-2. Looked like it could have been a ball.
"I'd do that again, only throw it a little higher."

And did he say earlier that the Mets got Reyes to lead off from now on? What an idiot.

LONG overdue, on a team that's been struggling to manage resources. The only thing he's EVER had on Conforto-- even during the disConfort of his slump-- is that he can play other OF positions poorly.

I'm so beyond okay with his leaving that if he latched on with an NL rival post-release and killed us down the stretch with clutch pinch-hits and diving catches, I wouldn't even be mad. I'd tip my hat, and move on, because I'd be way too busy prepping my basement zombie shelter, napping to the sounds of the flying swine above, and awaiting the fiery, Nationals-red end of the world.

[Edgy MD]

Alejandro's job was Nimmo's to take, and now he's got a first real chance at taking it.

The truth is, though, that seeing as they are carrying only four outfielders, there's a good chance he'll stick around at least until the return of Lagares. He's got to fall behind Nimmo, Conforto, and some other guy.

I didn't even know he was married.

Watched the scoreboard at PNC park all evening. Some of those innings seemed very long for a scoreless game. At one point I wondered if it was raining there

[Benjamin Grimm]

I didn't know about the pregnancy either.
