  1. They just didn't look into it tonight. Holmes was clearly bothered by pitching in torrential rain, but you gotta score a run or two if you want to win. Flush it, come back ready to go for the Yankmes.
  2. Coming down in buckets in Union County.
  3. Oy. That was too stressful.
  4. Fasten your seatbelts. Hoping for Good Diaz.
  5. Again, Gary sings the praises of Garrett and then he walks in a run.
  6. Well this is bad, but not really unexpected. Shoeless Joe was a bit of an innocent rube, but some of the other Sox were in it up to their eyeballs. They knew exactly what they were doing. Rose bet on baseball games knowing full well that it was illegal. He says he never bet on his own team, but I would think the temptation (and potential payout) there would be high. But since every other commercial on baseball games now is a DrafkingsBet365Fanduel, saying that gambling is bad is not as rock-solid as it was a decade ago. Baseball has surrendered to betting; this was just the final thing to tidy up. That being said, I hope Rose never gets voted in.
  7. I think Mendoza's juggling. Winker being out means that there's a spot for a lefty to DH. Taylor being the only CF means that there's an occasional spot for a lefty there too. He's making the best of what he has at the moment. Acuna probably has a slight edge because he brings speed and he's a good fielder at second. He needs to keep hitting; Mendoza seems to like a meritocracy. If you hit, you play. That's why sitting down Vientos for a couple of days was so interesting. A little shot across the bow. Now of course Lindor, Alonso, Nimmo, Soto will all play even if they go 0 for 25. But the other guys need to compete if they want to play. And that's a good thing. So right now, Acuna's in the lead but nothing's set in stone.
  8. Brazoban has obviously moved into the circle of trust, being given the save opportunity.
  9. Livvy seems, ahem. somewhat flexible. It's good to be a major league pitcher.
  10. Um, no. More like 'Too late to talk about Luis Robert Jr.' And for Tidwell, getdafugoutahere.
  11. They get Skenes tomorrow, so no walk in the park against Las Piratas. Nice to take 2 of 3 from a good ballclub.
  12. Since they're pinch-running for Vientos, I guess Baty gets to stand up again.
  13. We are so privileged to see Lindor play every day. The man has a knack. Vientos telling Brett Baty to sit down.
  14. Gary always touts how great Garrett is just before he does something not-great.
  15. Torrens won't be having any Sexy Time with the wife tonight....
  16. Javy Baez still costing the Mets.
  17. Audio is still annoying, Crowd noise is too loud and announcers are too soft.
  18. Canning looking solid again. Arguably the biggest surprise on this team in 2025.
  19. Gary sounds like he's using a tin can and a string to do the announcing.
  20. They kinda need this one as the Phils are starting to chase them down for the division, only 1 1/2 back.
  21. Baty raising his trade value at least.
  22. Ken Rosenthal with Gelbs-esque levels of cringe interviewing the parents.
  23. Holmes has really surprised me. He gives you a solid performance every time out. He's never gone more than 6, but I worry about his innings load late in the year. 6-man rotation would be a help.
  24. I get it free through T-Mobile. A really good perk.
