    Batboy bringing out the brand new 'Pitchcom 14'

    Pete walks, thus bringing the GIDP back into play.
  5. Frayed Knot
    And it's three innings for our bats vs two for them. Advantage us even before you figure in the one run lead.

    =Fman99 post_id=110612 time=1665281832 user_id=86] Yeah I don't understand bringing Diaz in to pitch to 8-9-1 in the order here in the 7th and asking him to what, get 9 outs?
  7. Frayed Knot
    Not clear that he hit the bag.
  8. Frayed Knot
    Shit! That's two rocket GiDPs Both right after the leadoff guy got on.
  9. Frayed Knot
    Ruf's best offensive game as a Met. (BB, HBP)
  10. Frayed Knot
    99 pitches thru six is high-ish but that alone shouldn't prevent him from at least starting the 7th
  11. Frayed Knot
    JdG still in. I approve.
  12. Frayed Knot
    =nymr83 post_id=110580 time=1665280005 user_id=54] Is a 12 out save possible tonight?
  13. Frayed Knot
    Was near perfect to those last two batters, Machado & Bell
  14. Frayed Knot
    Fewer pitches in 2 innings for JdG than for Snell thru 1

I certainly didn't want these expanded playoffs and plenty others didn't want them either. And were on record about that long ago. I'm with you on this topic and for at least as long.

    One batter retired by Snell so far ... on a rocket.

    Here's my time to chime in on how this is one of the drawbacks of expanded playoffs. Instead of a 'winner's only' tourney [MLB from '69 thru '93 for example] where each team is considered to be on the same par generally even if not exactly, when you start to add second and third tier clubs (and, in some sports, fourth and fifth) fans of the upper clubs come to expect the early round(s) to be easy or even a given and are therefore not just upset at an ouster but resentful and even betrayed [They didn't want it enough,] But sports, and particularly baseball, don't always work that way. So if you want the extra teams/games/dollars that expanded playoffs bring, do understand the downsides as well.

    =Ceetar post_id=109997 time=1664976335 user_id=102] start with the garbage weather. No snow, no comfortable fall days where you can sip cider outside without sweating..

    Colbert, at least for a while and maybe still, owned the record for largest pct of his team's RBI in a season. Around that same era Steve Carlton held the largest pct of team's wins. Not sure if either still stands but I remember guessing both correctly back in the day.
  20. Frayed Knot
    So, generally at least, the team did better when he was merely good (2015 alone accounts for almost the entire +.500 margin) then would struggle to tread water during the times he was at his best (8 games under for 2018-9).
  21. Frayed Knot
    But despite all those stats, did the Mets as a team ever get to .500+ in JdG started games?
  22. Frayed Knot
    =Gwreck post_id=109752 time=1664805679 user_id=56] I realize the attempt at humor but this is as good a time as any to point out the team has won 98 games and is quite good, no matter the results this weekend.
  23. Frayed Knot
    Are we SURE that there's no chance of them missing the post-season entirely, or are we just assuming that because we sense an easy schedule ahead?
  24. Frayed Knot
    =bmfc1 post_id=109744 time=1664798881 user_id=73] If the MLB [7 teams/lg] proposal had passed
  25. Frayed Knot
    =nymr83 post_id=109733 time=1664773538 user_id=54] The wild card series: Oct 7: deGrom Oct 8: Scherzer Oct 9: Bassitt
