Better than, worse than, or comparable to Heavy Trip?

Man, I leave a 7-1 game, go out to do some yardwork and come back to this?

Tylor Megill may never take the mound.

Four-zip. Feels like we are winning.

Bases loaded on a walkfest. Be Nimmo, Nimmo.

Well, looks like AJ Minter's playoff hopes have taken a hit.

What is the point of converting a reliever to a starter if you are going to lift him after 70 pitches when he is throwing a shutout?

Hopefully using his downtime to matriculate for a semester at Holding Runners On U.

Well, the difference between Acoonie's range and that of McNibbens sure came into play tonight.

Dylan Crews giveth and Dylan Crews taketh away.

Jorge Lopez?!

Delayed penetration!

Mets now have a sperm bank as a radio sponsor.

Álvarez had his hamate bone removed? Damn. Don't take my bones.

Someday, maybe Tom will get to play something on that sweet sax. [media=youtube]USfMeResE1c[/media]

Lineups ideally suited for void penetration.

Maybe they are heading to Walter Reed.

I amn't sure there is anyone here old enough to see TV coverage and broadcasting of games as an innovation, let alone a lamentable one. If anything, most of our lifetimes has seen starkly reduced TV coverage in favor of cablecasting/webcasting/streaming.

Yeah, I think evidence suggests that Nimmo's issue is less a matter of physical decline and more the challenges of a deliberate approach shift that is not working out.

The Hot Corner wrote: I really despise the ghost runner. I would prefer to see real baseball played in extra innings. If they are too worried about running out of players in drawn out games, then expand rosters by 1 player or play true baseball through the 12th inning, then play clown car baseball if still tied going to the 13th inning. They don't have to worry about running out of players. The attrition actually helps resolve the game.

Earl Webb is the fuckin' man. [fimg=500]https://rmyauctions.com/images_items/item_47713_1_97855.jpg[/fimg]

After a day off in their own beds, the Mets come off a perfect homestand and take baseball's best record down the interstate to take on the Nationals, winners of two in a row themselves. Jeff McNeil and Francisco Álvarez are expected to rejoin the team as Kodai Senga returns to the hill against The Unknown Pitcher. Righthanders Brad Lord and Jake Irvin started the two halves a doubleheader on Sunday, so it will likely be one of them. The Nats will be wrapping up their series against Baltimore on Thursday, and so will not get the rest the Mets are enjoying even now. https://marylandsportsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Mets-AT-Nats.jpg>
