If it's the seventh inning, and the Mets are up by 4, and Noah Syndergaard has thrown 95 pitches, and Bryce Harper is up with nobody on base, then yes, I'd let Syndergaard pitch to him. But if the batter, inning, and pitch count are the same, but the Mets are up by one and there are two runners on base, then maybe it's time to bring in a reliever.

I recall "We want a pitcher, not a belly-itcher."

I know how you feel. This is why I would like to see a 27-man roster, although I confess that it would probably lead to a 15-man pitching staff instead of a 6-man bench.

. Memories of Jeff Torborg "Bonbolito" stakes an earlier claim than G-Fafif to the concept of booing Torborg on the DiamondVision. I like this line from Larry Burns: "I would not hire him to manage an Arby's unless I wanted it to go out of business with as much acrimony and bitterness as humanly possible."

Or Berra.

Chelsea, the one on the left, is the one who kept catching my eye. At one point deep into the game the little scoreboard graphic started to obscure her, and I figured that was intentional so that I'd pay more attention to the game.

He had a bad first inning. The runs should have been unearned, but he still gave up a bunch of baserunners and a grand slam. I think his problems in the fifth inning were because he was kept in the game too long. I was thinking as I was watching that if a starter didn't need five innings to get credit for a win, he would have been pulled a little earlier. And he should have been pulled a little earlier. I'm not ready to panic yet, but obviously yesterday was a bad day for him. Let's see what happens over the next few starts.

My assumption is that guy is the manager of a local Hooters and he scored some tickets to the game, and brought along some of his colleagues.

I hear that Gilmartin is going to replace Kayleigh with Rachel Maddow!

I'm glad Yoenis is still around.

I'm glad I didn't bail!

And... Gsellman doesn't get out of it. First inning grand slam. 4-0 Marlins. Maybe I'll just read a book instead.

Some early trouble here.

I associate him with Wally Backman and (I think) Ron Gardenhire. Guys who spent a lot of time in the minors during the Torre/Bamberger years and caught the eye of Davey Johnson and got a fresh chance in the big leagues when Davey was promoted to manage the Mets.

Mets who have gone more than 600 days between wins. There's no filter here on whether or not each pitcher left the organization. The last column is the number of days.

It looks like somebody lobotomized Baseball Reference. I'll check in again from time to time throughout the day, but until they post their boxscores, Schaefer voting for the game of April 12 will be delayed.

Aren't you tired of yourself yet?
