IGT 7/28/16: COL@NYM -- Jake Can See Daylight

[bmfc1]

A few boos for Terry.

[Edgy MD]

Going to Blevins to face Gonzalez is fine, but that leaves us with only Bastardo if they want to go to a lefty to face Dahl in the ninth.

Unless you want to let Blevins go after Story in between.

Which he could (should?, debatable) have anticipated given their hitting track record.

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Understand that. With Reed out and Blevins typically a short-timer, is he bringing Familia in for the ninth? Not available, right?

I certainly would have been against lifting Lagares.

[Lefty Specialist]

Well dammit, a major-league baseball team should be able to put up at least one run in a bases-loaded, no-out situation.

[Edgy MD]

Thank Heavens for Blevins!

I'm not one to boo my team, but after that inning I must join you.

BOOOOooooOOOoooOO!

I will cheer our pitching insanely if we can keep things in check.

[Frayed Knot]

DAMMIT, another leadoff man on!! This inning is fucked.

Agreed. That was a bad move and it puts an infielder in the outfield.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Familia coming in, 1-0. Hoo boy

[Zvon]

Fammy is up. Hmmph.

I like the "get right back out there" thing but I dunno about it this time. From Juerys post game interviews last night, he will welcome this. But I dunno...



OE: ^My Benitez Syndrome kicking in.

Will his arm welcome it?

[Guest d'Kong76]

Hold onto your capz boyz and girlz!

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Lead off batter .... on.

Lead off single, so....I dunno.

I've come to the realization that you never really get cured of Benitez Syndrome. It's always there buried inside your soul.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

stolen base.

Cabrera getting a day off with a spike injury probably couldn't hurt

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Of course he stole second base.

man on second, no outs ... what could go wrong?

[bmfc1]

What happened to Familia getting a day off? Was Terry talked into changing his mind by another pitcher?

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Killing me.

Bases loaded, no outs.

I heard this earlier and I was okay with it for all the obvious reasons.


OMG. Rivera had the best intentions there. Being that the ball was so close and the guy was just getting out of the box I would have jumped on that and thrown to 1st. Hard one to call though.

[Zvon]

Get out of this Juerys, there's another movie poster in it for you.

BIG K!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1 0ut

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Brutal.

Jacob deGrom, you've been screwed out of a win once again.

[Zvon]

Loney, solid at first, except for this all important grounder.

1-1

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

BRUTAL!!!!!!!

[Guest Mets Guy in Michigan]

Robles should have started the inning.

[Frayed Knot]

What's next, a balked-in run?

This entire inning has been seeing eye singles, walks, bunt singles, broken bat infield-single/error, SBs, WPs

[Zvon]

This would be the major thing I would have hoped to avoid. Familia blowing 2 in a row. I can only hope that Mets fans give Familia a lot of rope. Don't start turning on him already.


2-1, not NY.

[bmfc1]

Terry over-managed the shit out of this game and none of his decisions worked out. Even with removing deGrom, he could have gone with Robles/Blevins in the 8th and Reed in the 9th but no. And now Yo isn't available to PH in the 9th.

That's how I had it laid out. Was he saving Robles for this?
