  1. Weaver now tied (with Holmes) for the Mets lead in pitching wins (2).
  2. As Jim Lampley said following George Foreman's comeback KO for his second heavyweight title, "It Happened!!"
  3. If John Stearns were still 3B coach he'd likely would have drilled Vientos with a tackle. It's totally illegal but we all know how much Stearns used to love reliving his days as a Safety at U of Colorado.
  4. Between Orze, Caratini, and now Topa, I feel like the Twins are less a ball club than a recipe of some sort.
  5. And now FOUR baserunners erased!! Two them essentially self-erasing.
  6. Can't run for Soto here. He's still likely to come up again either in the 9th or 10th.
  7. Not funny Weaver. Nice catch Alvarez. So the Twins first reliever tonight, Kendry Rojas, allowed 2 hits and 3 walks in two innings but no runs. How? Well, for starters, he faced 8 batters but only had to retire 3 of them to pull it off. The other three outs came on two GiDPs and Vientos being thrown out at the plate.
  8. If you have Austin Martin on your squad, don't you have to scour the waiver wire for a player named James Bond?
  9. I lied, I just thought of a comment. The only way Vientos is safe there is if Robert was throwing the ball.
  10. The Mets (it may not surprise you to learn) are DFL among all 30 teams in OBA, and yet they're in the upper half in GiDPs and maybe upper quarter pending the outcomes of tonight's action elsewhere. They're currently up to 18 with the second one tonight.
  11. So it's the 24th game of the season and we've had Lindor and Soto in the lineup together for 8-1/2 of them. On the plus side, Soto looked good getting down to 1st on a passed ball even though there was little chance of him getting to 2nd.
  12. Is it me or was Lindor not really busting it from 2nd to 3rd? I mean, yeah, he scored anyway, but by a hair. On replay: he wasn't busting it 3rd to home either. And now G & R notice it too.
  13. Another throw by Louie Bobby that was neither hard nor accurate.
  14. No, but I am all set for a Mets game!!
  15. It's how the fuck on Earth is this team so bad Day!! And the Mets need to recycle their bats or something cuz nuthin' else is working. Clay Homes opposes TBD, a hurler who has held the Mets to a .126 BA over the last 143 times they've faced 'him'. 7:10 EDT is the starting time as the Mets try to keep their even dozen losses from becoming a baker's dozen. Juan Soto will return and the Mets will 'manage' his playing time. And, as Clubber Lang said when asked for his prediction: "Pain" is in the forecast.
  16. Following the Lindor 3rd inning HR, the Mets had one hit (a single), two walks, and the last 14 batters went down in order with nothing even containing the faint whiff of a hit..
  17. Over the last 107 innings the Mets have blanked in 91 of them, scoring 22 runs combined in the other 16 frames. So you're saying there's a chance?
  18. The margin of the loss tonight might not even be close. Possibly double digits.
  19. Aside from the 3R HR, there's been nothing even resembling a threat of adding some rack-on runs.
  20. Also Peterson, I just recently realized, is both the longest tenured Met AND is a FA at the end of the season. So the phrase 'make or break season' gets thrown around too much, particularly with young players, but for Peterson it really is. For him it's maybe the difference between a FA contract vs hoping for a ST invite.
  21. So that Braz can get out of the inning on one pitch and Weaver doesn't have to contend with an extra Up-Down! Duh!!
