  1. 3B Kaz Okamoto to the plate: strike one, strike two, ball one [SB so now 2nd & 3rd], Grounds out to 3rd and the Yanx win
  2. Yanx/Jays in a similar position as yesterday: Yanx up by two (5-3), top 9th and the Jays get the first two on with Springer then Vladdy up. But tonight it's Camilio Doval in for the save. G Springer lines if off the pitcher's glove but is thrown out at 1st (now 2nd & 3rd) one out. Vladdy: a long Sac Fly gets a run in but now the Jays are down to their final out lefty swinging Daulton Varsho to the plate: and an infield single makes it 1st & 3rd as Doval is late covering
  3. I'm starting to doubt the likelihood of a comeback tonight.
  4. Boy are we behind here.
  5. Gotta love it when an outfielder leaps for a ball that's like 17 feet over the fence.
  6. This Brad Lord guy has only pitched for the Nats in his career. And I think it's clear that he'll never be a Royal.
  7. Yes. Hiding behind "Twitter says" as if the ability to discern a majority opinion is possible even when one isn't merely searching for confirmation bias.
  8. I would think your primary concern is to discover why just one person's posts (at least as far as I can tell) disappeared but no one else's. iow, did he cause it somehow, intentionally or otherwise?
  9. Circus clown stuff aside, those were some atrocious scoring decisions. It's got to be two errors on Semien: one for not getting an out on a ball hit right to him (the muff), and another for allowing both runners to advance (the throw). And then how is that an error on Bichette? His throw hit Torrens in the glove?!?!?!!
  10. Puma adds further detail: And, yes, it seems Howie was a big part of this. As if you can't always find a reason why it isn't the right time.
  11. https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=morabi001joh Nick Morabito's uncle
  12. If tonight's game gets rained out does Morabito go into the Mets 'books' as having "worn" #8? If only there were a website worthy enough to decide such things.
  13. But they're not. His posts still aren't in places where they used to be and the thread(s?) that he began (at least one that I know of) are also missing entirely. So not only is he not banned (not that it ever occurred to me that he was) but he might not have even left? And, yet, he appears to be the only one this happened to. Tres odd.
  14. Overall forecast doesn't look bad so it's likely they'll get the game in. But yaneverknow what hyper-local conditions are like.
  15. It's not clear from the Puma tweet whether Morabito requested a change ("was given #8 by the Mets" but maybe wants something else) or if someone on the Mets issued it before a higher-up had a stroke and then sprang into action to put the kibosh on it ... but just a bit too late for tonight's game.
  16. This triple OF call-up [Benge, Ewing, Morabito] within barely more than 1/4 season window lends logic (you can decide on your own if logic = justification) to the idea of cutting ties with Nimmo's contract prior to his value falling due to the Mets running out of room to use him.
  17. Yanx went right back to the well with Bednar following his 3 R / 3 H / 23 pitch nightmare ninth on Sunday, bringing him on in the 9th to protect a 2R lead vs Toronto. Pitchforks were likely being sharpened in Yanqui-land as he started the inning BB - RBI 2B, but he eventually survived K-ing Springer then getting Vladdy Jr to GO with two on for the save and a 7-6 Yanx win. Too bad. A second consecutive BS/loss would have been so sweet. In the big NL battles the Brewers chopped the Cubs' lead down to just a half game in the Central with a 9-3 win, while the Padres made a 1st inning Miguel Andujar HR stand up as they blanked the now 2nd place Dodgers 1-0
  18. Oh ,c'mon, Kimbrel gave up 2 hits and an unerned run with a 12 run lead. Let's not act as if this was us being forced to run a gauntlet. a response to earlier posts
  19. Hardly the only one, but he made a nice contribution.
  20. I don't get the position player pitching decision. The Nats went from probably not winning this game to winning it being the equivalent of an inside straight paired with a lottery ticket.
