    Maximizing their run potential in this inning. Nice to see for a change.

    No, this was the 'Every pitcher we put out there sucked tonight' game' Actually just came here to do a final autopsy on this disaster before this thread disappears to archive land. Met pitchers faced 56 batters in this game and put 31 of them on base [19 hits plus 11 walks and a HBP]. That means, yes, they only retired 25 of them (44%) because two of the outs came via a pickoff and a caught stealing, both of which were only called following successful replay challenges. And one of the other 25 outs was on a bunt so that one barely counts (so NYM hurlers retired just 43% of those batters not trying to make outs. KC was 9/23 w/RiSP (.391) and had TEN of their 19 hits go for XBs (7 doubles, 3 HRs). Mets had 13 hits w/only four for XB (2 dubbles, two HRs) and 5 walks but had the fortune of the Triple-error L. L. HR

    Ewing is, like, good! And at the risk of being grossly premature based on recent results only (really the only results we have), he might be special good.
  5. Frayed Knot
    This whole inning starts with two outs and no one on. That's the kind of thing that happens TO us this year, not by us.
  6. Frayed Knot
    A bases-loaded HBP ... our favorite scoring play!!!!
  7. Frayed Knot
    OK, bottom 8 so we've got two remaining ABs to their one. Gotta take advantage of the HF advantage.
  8. Frayed Knot
    Blame that Ewing K on Polanco's early (and ill-advised) challenge.
  9. Frayed Knot
    Are we really going to score 12 on the day we give up 16 only to turn around and score one (by the very first batter) in the game we hold them to two? I dunno ... but this game is starting to smell that way.

    Mike Francesa, via whatever tin-can-and-string operation he broadcasts (narrowcasts?) on these days, claims that the Mets aren't just listening to offers for Lindor but are 'actively looking to deal him'. “I don’t think they [Soto and Lindor] get along at all,” said Francesa despite Steve Cohen's recent claim that things are much better between them this year, “Everything I’ve heard all along is that they don’t like each other. So they can say what they want. I don't think there's any question that the Mets are going to try very, very hard to trade Lindor" MLB reporter Ken Rosenthal shoots all that down saying it's not anything he's heard nor is any beat reporter saying it. "I don't see it", said Rosenthal, "The only person reporting this is Mike Francesa and he's not a beat reporter" Me: This wouldn't be the first time Mikey had cited dubious (and un-named) sources as a basis for his claim of being the guy who knows all.

    Bichette has an opportunity to ge the lead runner on that nice play/throw he made for the second out. Had he done so it would have prevented the run.
  12. Frayed Knot
    Met bats are getting Dobnak'd since the Ewing HR
  13. Frayed Knot
    Rays lead 3-0 thru 7 as the Yanx offense continues to sputter w/o Judge. But at least they can brag about only having 6 strikeouts so far considering that the Bombers K'd 17 times in each of the first two games of this series. They won the first game anyway backed by a Schlittler(8)/Bednar(1) 4-hitter.
  14. Frayed Knot
    Despite allowing just three singles and a walk, Scott has still managed to hit 77 pitches thru four innings.
  15. Frayed Knot
    Now at 63.00
  16. Frayed Knot
    So this is why you try to squeeze an extra batter or two out of Adam Warren who at least has a ML track record.
  17. Frayed Knot
    So the K avoids the dreaded infinite ERA situation for Seelinger.
  18. Frayed Knot
    24 Royal baserunners so far in this game: 15 hits, 8 walks, 1 HBP vs just 18 outs ... and several of those outs were on the base paths.
  19. Frayed Knot
    Prior to yesterday, Soto only had two 3R-HRs as a Met. He's now doubled his total.
  20. Frayed Knot
    I don't think that was as sure a 5-4-3 DP as Gary seems to think it was, so I don't fault Bichette for the choice he made.
  21. Frayed Knot
    Because when you're already on your third pitcher in the 5th inning on a night when a chunk of the pen is likely unavailable you can't have a short leash.
  22. Frayed Knot
    Walk's as good as a hit, Jorge. Well, not as good as that one.
  23. Frayed Knot
    A gift caught stealing as 11 of the previous 14 Royals had reached base ... and now 12 of 15 13 of 16.
  24. Frayed Knot
    32.3% of Tyler Tolbert's ML hits [10 of 31] have come since Saturday.
  25. Frayed Knot
    His thrown was on line. He just thought the pitcher was evelen-teen feet tall.
