  1. A crooked number of hits for Conforto!
  2. 6 straight strikeouts for deGrom. He's determined to preserve his 1-run lead.
  3. It would be funny if Chi Chi González walked up to a Devo track. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/54/Are_We_Not_Men_We_Are_Devo!.jpg>
  4. Gary keeps saying "here at Citi Field," and while I know they're broadcasting remotely it's still a little disorienting when I can see Coors Field on the screen.
  5. The Yankees have been able to coast into the playoffs the past few seasons based on their lineup of mashers hitting a bandbox of a ballpark, only to lose to better teams in the postseason (either a 16-1 clobbering or Aroldis Chapman surrendering a walk-off homer while wearing a weird smirk on his face). This season they have to contend with the still good defending AL Champions, a vastly improved Blue Jays, and a moderately improved Red Sox in their own division. I predict they'll finish 3rd or 4th with a record close to .500.
  6. It's sweet!
  7. Another contact-free delivery from deGrom!
  8. Last. Place. Yan-kees!
  9. Edgy MD wrote: (Is "scot-free" some sort of anachronistic ethnic slur? If so, I apologize.) Apparently it https://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/scot-free.htmlderives from an archaic word of Scandinavian origin that means "tax." So the phrase just means getting away with not paying your tax, literally or figuratively. So I don't think you're slurring anyone.
  10. deGrom and Stroman and two days of snow, man!
  11. This thread title prompts the earworm "Do you like pina coladas? Seeing Jake in the rain?" For this reason, I'm grateful the game is postponed and this thread will fall away from the front page.
  12. And now the Mets are in first place!
  13. A chance for Lindor to bust it wide open!

Best to get a fresh guy in before it's too late ... or something along those lines. oe: answering Willets Yes, that makes sense. Just as long as the strategy isn't "I usually let my guy go 6 innings in a 9-inning game so I'll pull him after 4 in a 7-inning game."
  15. You'd think the strategy would be to get the same amount of innings out of your starter because your bullpen needs to be ready for two games.
  16. Just got back from taking my daughter to baseball practice in time to see the walk off! What was the reason for pulling Walker early?
  17. Michael Con-0-for-4-to comes to the plate with a runner on base.
  18. Walker is potentially starting 2 of 3 official games in a row, then.
  19. He means Walker. 1. Walker started Thursday No Game Friday 2. deGrom started on Saturday Game suspended on Sunday Game postponed on Monday 3. Walker starts on Tuesday
