    Jacob Barnes is not the correct call in a game-critical situation. Full stop.

    I know it's traditionally “not done” given the zero hits so far, but a bunt against the shift to get on base in a 1 run game is not simply permissible, it's arguably an imperative.
  3. Gwreck
    Aside from the fake throw, textbook rundown. Well done.

    Lucchesi next pitches Friday. The odd days around the Baltimore games allow them to both skip Lucchesi and get people and extra day of rest. Unless we have the unlikely event of a San Diego rainout.

    “It's too much of a carnival. It's not the way the game is supposed to be played.” - Gary on the moronic extra innings rule.
  7. Gwreck
    It's as if Gary has a quota of Springsteen references to work in each year. Except I don't think Keith appreciates them as much as Ronnie does.

    Granderson

    Is there anything to the idea that they had such a short season last year that there is some concern to not let outings go longer than necessary in the early part of this season?

    =bmfc1 post_id=66063 time=1622489354 user_id=73]This is all or part of ESPN's doing as ATL's home game within the same time zone doesn't start until 5:10 b/c they were on the road last night. The ramifications of a Sunday Night game linger and are indeed stupid.

    =batmagadanleadoff post_id=65515 time=1621990300 user_id=68] Maybe baseball should make up a rule that Mets baserunners are allowed to walk off the base whenever they feel like it, with impunity, and the defense isnt allowed to tag them out while they're off the base. Yeah, it's the rules' fault that Villar and deGrom were tagged out, not Villar or deGrom's fault. /rollseyes

    You need 6 outs in order to win. It's the middle of the Marlins order. Do you use Diaz in the 9th or save him for the 10th?
  13. Gwreck
    =seawolf17 post_id=65124 time=1621654856 user_id=91] They mentioned this a few weeks ago - the rule is that if the pitcher's spot made the last out, you're allowed to go back to the batter before him.

    =Gwreck post_id=65095 time=1621654207 user_id=56] He's gotta bunt, right? Either for a hit or a squeeze?

    No Diaz for a second inning because...we don't want to win?
  17. Gwreck
    Dumbest baserunning mistake since that time Ryan Church missed third base.

There was a game at the end of the 2006 regular season in which Nick Johnson of the Nationals broke his femur in a collision while trying to catch a ball in short right field. They turned off the scoreboard animations/between inning music for the rest of the game.

    McNeil DH Lindor SS Conforto RF Alonso 1B Smith LF Pillar CF Villar 3B McCann C Peraza 2B Odd lineup in that we have a DH but Smith is still playing left field.

    Why is Taijuan Walker hitting when Nido is on the bench?

    Sandy does not come across well in this story. A statement along the lines of “We are conducting a full review led by outside counsel and are committed to addressing issues” statement would have done fine here. The comments about “execution” (not the right metaphor to use) and “statute of limitations” are not the right choices.
  24. Gwreck
    Todd P. had the biggest hit as a backup catcher. I also enjoyed Omir Santos' homer off Papelbon at Boston.

    I had forgotten that Strickland was with the Mets until 2005 despite having not pitched since 2003.
