  1. The triumphant (hopefully) return of Tylor Megill, against the lightly touted Angels hurler Tee B. Dee. Get a nap in, we're still on fuck the East coast time zone here for two more games.
  2. I guess there was mercy in this game only lasting 3 hours. I went to sleep with them down 2-0, just before it all went sideways.
  3. Encouraging that Lee's promotion didn't come at the expense of a Marte IL trip.
  4. =kcmets post_id=95207 time=1654636661 user_id=53]Jorge Toca!

  6. This is some hot hard fudge. I'm not enjoying it. Hoping mainly for negative X-rays and MRI's at this point.
  7. =roger_that post_id=95237 time=1654646886 user_id=128] Hey, for someone browsing the web while driving, you're lucky I didn't write that the Mets were angling to get Wilson Phillips.
  8. I don't know that the infield fly rule is any more or less arbitrary than the stupid extra runner. Maybe it's just been a thing for so long that I don't question it. The stupid extra runner, and the DH and the 6 run lead requirement for a position player to pitch, and potentially banning the shift, and a 3 batter minimum per pitcher, that's all just the worst crap.
  9. I made it to the 4th inning and went to bed on the Nimmo RBI single. I still missed quite a bit, apparently.
  10. How green is the grass on this field, anyway?
  11. I'm already bored of hearing about Machado. Aren't there 8 other guys in the lineup ?
  12. I couldn't be any more tired than I currently am. Good thing is we're about to have the first pitch
  13. =roger_that post_id=95043 time=1654548322 user_id=128] =RealityChuck post_id=95042 time=1654546432 user_id=82] The IF rule makes sense. Why do you think it was instituted?
  14. The stupid extra inning runner is stupid. Read more about it on my blog oldwhiteguy.edu
  15. They did mention it in the booth yesterday. They framed it as him getting a breather but also made it pretty clear that it was very much in response to that last K
  16. The next game that I'll hope to see the conclusion of, live, will not be until Sunday. So that's shitty.
  17. What a game, holy moly ! I caught most of the last two innings on the radio call as I was mowing my lawn. No Howie, today, which was a shame. Having said that, 1) I loved that Buck used Diaz in the 8th against the top of the lineup. Totally 100% the smart play 2) I don't like Lugo on back to back days and he clearly was off his best. I don't know that I'd have pulled him, though, against a .190 hitter with two outs 3) Medina showed some big stones in the 10th 4) I don't challenge the CI call in the bottom of that inning if I'm Dave Roberts. Taking the bat out of the hands of an All Star player? Dumb. Let him hit, he's got a better chance than any of the subsequent guys to plate the tying run
  18. Another strong performance by our #8 (as per spring training, depth-wise) starter today. Hopefully the Mets can get past Urias to the soft underbelly.
  19. I forgot Torre ever managed in Los Angeles.
  20. I don't care about the betting line, but I dig this girl on the pre-game. I need something better than Todd Zeile to look at.
  21. A win would be great. Scoring some runs and stringing some hits together would be better yet. Show something out there.
  22. I got a late nap and made it into the 6th, but I'm cooked and they haven't done shit so I'm going to bed.
  23. =kcmets post_id=94552 time=1654263386 user_id=53] My wife's poignant analysis of the first game of the west coast swing: KB walks into room and sees 'highlights' on TV screen on MLB Central. KB: Who won last night? KC: Fuckin' Dodgers. KB: What time did you stay up until? KC: I gave myself an eleven o'clock curfew. Didn't miss much. KB: Maybe if you stayed up they would have scored some runs. KC: Maybe. Aaannnd, cut....
