  1. The good thing is that we have Seventh-Inning deGrom available to replace Sixth-Inning deGrom. The bad thing is we gotta hit and hit and hit and hit and hit some more.
  2. Hanging slider is not the one to throw.
  3. I'm not sure there's an appropriate time to get hurt. I've never liked seeing 14 and 31 in circulation with the Dodgers. Now I'll just concentrate on 31.

Ever since the dawn of the franchise, the Mets have had an extraordinarily high Yolmer retention rate.
  5. I read it, and no, and it says nothing about what he advocated for on Sunday. The writer also contradicts himself by declaring that "the Mets are this starved for left-handed relief," but writing four paragraphs later, "Also a problem with regards to Rodriguez is the three-batter rule, which makes a pitcher like Rodriguez (who is very good against lefties but struggles against tough righties) a lot less valuable."
  6. I don't see impossible as a limitation, but a challenge.
  7. I imagine that no writer ever got a column rejected writing that the bullpen could be better. Clearly, Showalter has his reluctance to use his relievers over multiple innings. I have my problems with that, but it's a different issue.
  8. Willets Point wrote: I wish there was a box score for the game. Working on this. Hope to have something tomorrow.
  9.

You're the man out there. You're their DADDY. Just LEAN INTO shit like that."
  10. Yeah, too often it's easy to fall into the trap that there isn't enough relief pitching, and there is nothing anything less than an umblemished record that is acceptable for relievers. But the guys we don't have, had we gotten them, would have displaced the guys we do have, and then they'd be the ones that are unacceptably imperfect. They wouldn't necessarily be better, and they might be worse, and if so, the Mets would have future talent invested in that worseness. Aaron Loup was terrific in 2021, and that got him a three-year contract from the Angels and good for him, but so far in that contract, he's fallen back to the pack and just been another guy. He's a frequent figure in Jomboy videos, though, because weird things seem to happen when he's on the mound. [media=youtube]eh_gw0dnMw0[/media]
  11. Sorry, it looked tougher in the bottom of the ninth from Baltimore. The umpire had the look that seemed to say he'd stop the game if it hadn't been so close to the end.
  12. Too bad. Tough conditions for a big comeback.
  13. Escobar is in there to get lefties and he has two hits against righties.
  14. The Mets have two slugging lefty bats on the bench to send up against this guy.
  15. I'd sign up for one run in four innings from the bullpen on any night, messy as that might have looked this evening. Three runs from the offense, not so much. But the Dodgers seem to want to use Reed in the ninth, so this isn't over.
  16. McNeilio needs a haircut, I think.
  17. Cool. A couple of runs here and he'll be playing the other song.
  18. Yeah, treating an 0-2 count as an invitation to bounce two breaking pitches away is so 2010. But I like Pete coming up against Vesia here. OE: But I eschew the result.
  19. Did Timmy play that or fake it?
  20. Heck of a spot for Hunter's return.
  21. Too many Will Smiths in this league.

  23. Lindor and Ruf both getting off the schneid the last two innings is refreshing.
  24. Hate to hit see the pen walk the bases full early in game one of a tough series.
  25. A 92-pitch exit for Taijuan. Hate to hit the pen early in game one of a tough series.
