Littell sure looked good for a guy getting the eighth inning of an 8–3 ballgame.

I'm not sure why Álvarez positioned himself behind the plate instead of in front on that throw.

Pete Walker took time out from his sparring with Luis Rojas to join Chico, Tyler, Neil, and Taijuan in warmly welcoming Josh to The Walker Brigade.

You couldn't get a better or clearer shot than the replay officials had to overturn that call. It was down to the officials' interpretation of the rule.

I'm just disturbed that Damon and his top-shelf Q-rating are being deployed for corporate propaganda disguised as commercial films. On top of Ford vs. Ferrari, that's a pattern. And I'm wondering if this is where high-end films are going to be headed whole-hog. The marketing budget on this thingie seems to be enormous.

There's a two-runner by Alonso. Let's make a winner out of Josh Walker.

The coveted title of Met #1200 goes to Josh Walker, with a shutout inning of the mighty Rays. [fimg=450]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E74XxWYWUAEI4Xd.jpg[/fimg]

Well, 1-1 now.

It's levity. I don't really have that much self-image on the line in the 5/12 PotG vote. I just meant to encourage voting.

That's a terrible thing to write about the Rays. Mets outscoring their opponents 1-0 over the last half inning.

Courtney Love seems to have taken the first inning off for once, because there is no hole!

Seth Elledge steps toward Detroit, who have claimed him off of waivers from the Mets.

OK, but I'm still a good person!

Phiphth straight start for Tommy Pham.

Vote for that May 12 game. No way is Megill the PotG that day. Don't let that happen!

Nobody steps on my dick for three days. Nobody.

His eyes aren't shifting to glance at the catcher behind him, but to the right side, toward the on-deck circle and the Yankee dugout.

Anybuds want to show us how well you know the Rays?

Cahna, Marte and Escobar are probably their three hottest hitters right now, but I'm pretty certain they'd take almost anything they could get for the first and third of those right now, deadline-shmeadline. Maybe Pham is on the block also, but I'm not sure my attitude toward that guy is shared.

... as far as we know.

Keith made it clear that these things didn't happen when he was playing. A team had a rotation, they had the last guy in the bullpen used only every three-to-six days to save him so's'n' he'd be ready for the second game of a doubleheader or an emergency start. But the latter-day practice of being cuter with extra rest, along with bullpens being 60% larger, has made the "bullpen game" a practice that even the best teams (Tampa Bay today, for instance) deploy a few times a season. Back a-ways, even if you had to go with a middle reliever for a start, you wouldn't yield to the "we haven't stretched him out" logic and pull him after one or two whether he was pitching well or not, but actually try to get at least some length from the guy. Maybe he'd go five and bail a couple of other guys out. Back then, more than a few relievers had been starters a few years before anyhow. The first bullpen game I remember, where the manager announced beforehand that he was stitching together relievers and had no intention of getting five from the starter was the Red Sox in 1980. Regular sixth starter Bob Stanley had gone two innings the day before, and when the Sox found themselves in a pinch, they committed to letting three relievers each get three innings. Skip Lockwood took the first three innings, Soupy Campbell took over in the middle innings, and Stanley himself gobbled up the last three innings as the Sox https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BOS/BOS198008080.shtmlpulled off a gerry-rigged 4-1 win. Whether that ultimately served as the bad precedent I suspect it did, I dunno. But bullpen games are just part of the pattern I lament of seeing pitchers throwing ever-fewer innings and seemingly getting hurt as much as ever, if not more. On the other hand, Lockwood https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/gl.fcgi?id=lockwsk01&t=p&year=1980only made three more career appearances after that, so what do I know?

With the expanded post-season, the market at the deadline will largely be far less dramatic in coming years.

Long time to make that decision, but I'm guessing no.

Buck Martinez at a loss for words is really fun Buck Martinez. Dan Shulman: "You don't want to go throwing allegations around without knowing, but ..." Buck Martinez: "No. AndyouwahaIIIeeeeIIyknowhavehad ... guys looking back when I was a catcher and ... heyouIcan obviously seeitand I ... he couldn't see the catcher with the way he was looking right there."
