    =ashie62 post_id=197931 time=1752342065 user_id=90] Michael Lorenzen has been scratched The two horse Angel Zerpa will open what is likely to be a bullpen game

    I hope he's ok, because it would take a bunker buster to dig a hole big enough for his coffin. Later

    He's remembered for his nickname and his dumpy body, but Smokey Burgess had an 18 year career with a slash line of .294/.362/.446 , for an OPS of .807. Those numbers snuck up on me. Later

    Frankie Montas Jr 1-1 6.14 Michael Lorenzen 5-8 4.61 Game time 4:10 Later

    We don't want him to keep doing that if it might risk a groin injury. Are there any films of Gil Hodges or Vic Power? Those are the best two righty fielding first basemen I can remember. Maybe he could pick up some of their techniques. Later

His career OBP might have been a lot higher. Later

    As Red Barber used to say to avoid a jinx, "There have been 8 hits through seven innings in tonight's Seattle/ MFY game, and Seattle has all of them". Later

    You won't see him any time soon, Stearns prefers signing trash heap pitchers like Zach Pop and Colin Poche and instantly putting them on the roster instead of calling up the actual prospects. I saw a quote of his a few weeks ago in which he said he wouldn't bring up the kid pitchers this year, but might them in deals at mid season for proven major leaguers!!! Lets find out if those minor league prospects (McLain and Sproat) can get major league hitters out before they do something like that. Later

    Looks like Brandon is starting to put it together. Another good outing: 7.0IP 3H 0R 0ER 1BB 4K His season's ERA is now 4.61. Later

    The picture sizes are all different, by row, The major leaguers are larger than the non-25 man players. Makes sense. Intentional? Later
  14. MFS62
    You can't rely on 3 (sometimes 4) hitters to carry the team. And when they don't hit, the offense looks pitiful. There's no length (depth, whatever you want to call it) in the lineup. Later

    In case anyone's interested, the AL leads the NL in interleague play this year 215-207 (1904 runs to 1893) Later

    3-3 in the 3rd. Waddell out of there after 2. Later

    =TransMonk post_id=197449 time=1751845109 user_id=71] I was surprised by Chris Sale's number of trips. Forgot how long he's been so good.
  18. MFS62
    Another wasted effort for Peterson. Seems he's inherited the "They can't friggin' score for me no matter how well I pitch" roster spot, previously held by Jacob DeGrom . Later

    In absence of any requests for an answer, here it is: Ron Taylor, Ken Mackenzie (The other ex-Met) and Claude Raymond appeared in the same game for the Houston Astros in 1965. I remember seeing a picture of the three of them holding up a (then new) maple leaf Canadian flag. Thank you for playing. Ben, you can pick up your box of Rice-A-Roni at the front desk. Later

    Another hint: another of the pitchers was a Met during part of his career. Later

    Will we see Alex Carillo? Later
