    I'm hoping to get out of this inning with less than a four run deficit.

    Michael Harris II has ten walks on the season (> 300 PA) and none in over a month ... so we hand him 1st base for free with one pitch instead.
  3. Frayed Knot
    4th in MLB* in team walks allowed ... and that's before the six in < 6 innings so far in this game More than all but LAA, CHW, ATH

BB-Ref claims that one was "only" 98 dee grees that day. https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/NYN/NYN200108090.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/NYN/NYN200108090.shtml My memory suggests it was maybe half a dozen ticks higher than that - Aaaannnnd we were in the sun (except for those sissies that relocated to the LF Loge). P.S. my weather dot com app says it's a mere 93 in Flushing right now.

    Met bats really started hitting their Stride® last inning. (I crack me up sometimes)

    Manaea is one turn of the rotation from rejoining.

    Yanx go down 6-1 to the Reds in Cincy. The lone run was, of course, a 1st inning Judge HR. Phils off tonight before starting a three-game series tomorrow in Houston And in your nightly 'Big Dumper' alert: Cal Raleigh is 2/5 in Minnesota including his 32nd HR
  9. Frayed Knot
    Be nice if we could beat these guys maybe once this season ... but with only ten games remaining against them I just don't see it.
  10. Frayed Knot
    Pete's had about 30 lousy looking ABs in a row now.
  11. Frayed Knot
    Surprised they pulled Schwellenbach after <90 pitches.
  12. Frayed Knot
    Soto sure do like that LCF alley. I'd swear four or five of his HRs this year have landed in the same seat.
  13. Frayed Knot
    Hey, we retired a leadoff hitter!!!
  14. Frayed Knot
    Let's put the leadoff guy on as often as possible and see how that works out in the long run.
  15. Frayed Knot
    Schwellenbach Lager and Schwellenbach Dark are both available in your local market's refrigerated section. Despite the sweep last week, this team is still five games under .500 and just lost two of three to the Marlins. Let's not overthink this here.

    Part of the problem with this whole discussion of pitcher innings is a skewed version of how things used to be. Cone: 'My pitching coach w/the Mets and Yanx Mel Stottlemyre regularly threw 30 complete games per year' No, David, he once topped 20 (24) and also once led the AL in CG with 18 (1965). And this from a very good pitcher whose 11 season career essentially spanned the most pitching dominant time since the dead ball era. Which isn't to say things haven't changed over the years, but let's at least have an honest conversation about it. This whole 'pitchers used to always finish what they started' stuff has got to stop. Did they walk to school uphill both ways too?
  17. Frayed Knot
    Hmmmm. One day after his loooonnnggg HR last night. But, as I posted in Saturday's IGT, not only does he just have 29 hits this year (.236 BA) but 23 of those hits are singles (3 2Bs, 3 HRs). So even though his current BA is right in line with his career norms, the isolated Power (Slg Avg - BA) is WAY down. For '23 & '24 combined his IsoP was right at 200 where this season it's exactly 100 even with last night's HR factored in. With MLB average typically around 150 (currently 153) that's a big fall. Put another way: 100 puts you slightly below where Torrens is this season. 200 puts you up there with Nimmo and Lindor who have 58 XBHs between them (29 each).
  18. Frayed Knot
    Yeah, I didn't have 'two singles off Lindor's glove in the same inning' on my bingo card for tonight. First one resulted in an extra base for Philly. The second should have resulted in an extra out for the Mets, but didn't.
  19. Frayed Knot
    Well this turned to shit in a hurry!
  20. Frayed Knot
    Luzardo had a terrific early season underway until two back-to-back horrid starts vs MIL [12 ER in 3/1 IP] and TOR [8 ER in 2.1 IP] blew all that out of the water and more than doubled his ERA [2.15 ERA thru 11 starts then 4.46 thru 13]. Since then he's gone one good start vs Cubs [1 ER thru 6] and is coming off a not so good one vs MIA [4 ER thru 5]
  21. Frayed Knot
    Nice of the Braves to not only lose today but two of three to the Marlins over the weekend [2-6, 7-0, 3-5] dropping them to 6 G under .500 despite last week's sweep.
  22. Frayed Knot
    =Cowtipper post_id=195937 time=1750600701 user_id=166] I heard the Mets sucked. What did I miss
  23. Frayed Knot
    Even during the debacle that was the month of May '24, the Mets didn't have a seven game losing streak. They did, however, have two five-game streaks [Mar 29 - Apr 4, May 20 - 25] in a four week span.

    The Mets last [CROSSOUT]nine[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]ten[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]eleven[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]twelve[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]thirteen[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]fourteen[/CROSSOUT] Fifteen HRs are solos. I'm not sure if I'm part of the problem here or part of the solution. Meanwhile, that's three HRs served up by Taijuan Walker in an eight batter span over two games.
  25. Frayed Knot
    Wait, I just saw the 'Bat Signal' The Mets last [CROSSOUT]nine[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]ten[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]eleven[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]twelve[/CROSSOUT] [CROSSOUT]thirteen[/CROSSOUT] Fourteen HRs are solos.
