    'three of the softest hits you'll ever see'
  2. Lefty Specialist
    Typical Familia inning- weak contact that leads to base hits.

    =LWFS post_id=63626 time=1620523058 user_id=84] Familia looking sharp in general. His stuff and control have been vintage for the last 3-4 weeks.

    Forecast is not optimistic, with rain tonight and tomorrow. They're going to wind up playing like 32 games in 20 days in August & September.

    Yeah, this better not become a thing. Lindor lied through his teeth in the post-game. Everyone else pretty much backed him up to varying degrees. Let's just move on and play baseball. Let McNeil hit a home run and let Lindor be the first to give him a celebratory pat on the ass when he arrives home.

    Some still can. Harper. Trout. Hell, Piss Missile went about as "opposite way" as a guy with his power can go all the damn time during his breakout season. To my main purpose...

There was an interesting bit of business from Harold Reynolds on MLB Network last night, tucked in among the there's-no-respect-for-the-veteran-coaching-voice and telling-guys-to-go-the-opposite-way-to-break-a-slump-is-verboten old-man grumbles. He led a side-by-side comparative dissection of Lindor's swings from this season and a varying selection of plate appearances from 2015-2019. Unless he's cherry-picking, it seems Lindor's got his hands lower/more lax during the latter-day swings, giving himself too much to do/less time to get properly into the load portion of his swing, and making almost every swing rushed or late. And one would think that a hitting coach who's working his ass off would pick up on that sort of thing.

    "Right side tightness." Guess I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
  10. Lefty Specialist
    Yeah, the 'Diesel Donnie' business was the end of the road. You're basically humiliating your hitting coach on national television. Don't know if any hitting coach can fix Lindor right now. And Rojas doesn't have the guts to bat him 7th or 8th. Maybe they should hire Jacob deGrom as hitting coach. He does pretty much everything else.

    =Fman99 post_id=62851 time=1620011289 user_id=86] This team will be what kills me. Not marathons, not a car accident, not alcohol or chronic masturbation or hard living or indiscriminate violence. But this fucking team.
  13. Lefty Specialist
    Another 'signature moment' for Lindor.
  14. Lefty Specialist
    Rojas seems to be a devotee of the Terry Collins 'we got to get this guy going' method of running someone out there who's not hitting. Lindor, and to a lesser extent Pillar seem to fall into this category. Lindor looks like he's carrying around all 341 million dollars in pennies every time he comes to bat.
  15. Lefty Specialist
    Be sure to lock up all the trash cans just in case.
  16. Lefty Specialist
    Mets win. Nationals lose. Phillies lose. Marlins lose. Braves lose.....twice. Yankees lose. Depending on how you look at it, it could even be septuple happiness. In any case, it's hard to get a better day than this.
  17. Lefty Specialist
    Can Lindor be sent to the alternate site for a week or two?

He hit a HR in the opening series off a pitch near his face and hasn't stopped swinging at those pitches since. They've stopped throwing him fastballs. That's basically it. If they do throw one it's out of the zone. He's going to have to prove he can hit the off-speed and bendy pitches.

    Time for the grounds crew to remove the Tarpley.
  20. Lefty Specialist
    Schwarber with another dork. And here we go again.
  21. Lefty Specialist
    The Mets seem listless today, almost like they have a hangover from watching deGrom pitch.
  22. Lefty Specialist
    Dunking and dorking and plays not made, and this is looking messy.
  23. Lefty Specialist
    Stroman lost a little focus because of the ump there. And Conforto's throw home was a bit, um, bouncy.
  24. Lefty Specialist
    Lindor doing his Carlos Baerga impression again.
  25. Lefty Specialist
    Well......no.
