  1. I'm halfway wondering if they spring Chris on you to see if you're a fanboy
  2. I uh, did not expect to be asked tech questions by Chris Capuano
  3. apparently (hush hush?) the MLB PA wants to re-do all their webiste and are hiring a web developer. I don't know how I'd make school drop offs work if i was leaving so early to work in the city again, but headed in to interview tomorrow regardless.
  4. rail riders.
  5. =G-Fafif post_id=13659 time=1561053934 user_id=55] Like the Isles splitting their seasons between Barclays and the Coliseum...but with a much longer commute.
  6. =Centerfield post_id=13230 time=1560795497 user_id=65] Ceetar is like the Rich Coutinho of this forum.
  7. They're sweeping this series. I have no doubt.
  8. Matz debut in late June 2015 was delayed do to the resumption of a suspended game against the Reds.
  9. Benjamin Grimm wrote: Maybe that was a passive-aggressive statement suggesting that he's somewhat disconnected from his family life. Nah, passive-aggressive would be an asterisk on the 3rd. Or like, if it said this is OUR 3rd child.
  10. We're pregnant is somewhat common parlance. It's really just "We're having a baby" I imagine the 3rd bit is for the fans/viralness of it. And yeah, I'm not really into distracting him with this before he's about to bat.
  11. that was bullshit all around, like the Padres game in 2015. garbage. just amateurish by the umps/baseball.
  12. the 3 night games against the Cardinals in 2017 in July were right around 30.
  13. =kcmets post_id=12865 time=1560454821 user_id=53] I didn't look, but I imagine the Cardinals are among the NL leaders in road attendance... predicted official crowd: 32,694...
  14. I just realized the last time I went to a game that'll likely be this empty was when the Giants no-hit the Mets in June 2015. With the young 'uns I've really only been hitting the 'big' games. OD, playoffs, Father's day. Crowded.
  15. Breaking news. I appear to be going to this game? Well, that is, if I don't get arrested for bringing a 17,000 pocket 'diaper bag' into the park.
  16. =seawolf17 post_id=12657 time=1560271174 user_id=91] =bmfc1 post_id=12653 time=1560266645 user_id=73] Thanks seawolf17--I questioned my ability to count to 40 (so why don't they have someone else there? and why is Rahme there?).
  17. =G-Fafif post_id=12640 time=1560261544 user_id=55] Luis Guillorme is your 26th man.
  18. =bmfc1 post_id=12490 time=1560133458 user_id=73] Chapman threw 22 pitches in the 9th so hopefully he needs a rest tomorrow. Mickey has to decide if it's McNeil at 2B and JD Davis in LF or Hech at 2B and McNeil in CF.
  19. I saw someone else mention the cut grass, but I forgot to get a good look at it. (I miss the days of just sitting and watching the game without multitasking) I'm a big fan of cutting new/interesting things into the grass. I haven't seen them do the skyline since OD 2005.
  20. I've got Cano hitting 23 home runs the rest of the way, fwiw.
  21. Edgy MD wrote: Yeah, but ... bad. The idea seemed to be to eat it most of the way around the diamond, and make up for it offensively. That's not happening. It's hard to call the defense historically bad, because the strikeout rate is like 250% of the rate in 1908, to pick a year, but it's costing them games, certainly. Oh c'mon. Use your head, ferchrissakes. When the author says "historically", you know he means the[CROSSOUT] seven years [/CROSSOUT]for which his data exists. four and a half.
  22. It's weird to me that the Phillies are rated well defensively on Fangraphs, they looked like a disaster head to head. Team-wide, and this is still small sample as it's probably barely into June yet, hasthe Mets 29th, ahead of the Mariners and a tick behind the Nationals. Most of the Mets damage actually seems to be framing, and 'runs saved'. Their range is 20th, just a tick below average. There are so many components to it, it's hard to break down, but it seems like it might be more an issue of making the right decisions on balls, not turning DPs, fielders choices, Rosario errors, than balls squeaking through. 'Fixing' Rosario would be huge. Might honestly be the difference between 'extremely poor, damaging defense' to 'passable'. Especially if Thor finds his slider and the Mets pitching allows fewer balls in play like they did last year. Also Nimmo back over these guys playing LF.
  23. I'm skeptical on those made up metrics. Interesting though, yes. The Mets defense has been bad, made worse by injuries. Historically bad? Also, it seems sneaky to call something historically bad when you can only go back to 2015. Using the expected averages is interesting. I frequently look at those myself, you can load up the game on statcast and see them batter by batter, live. But breaking it down by head to head matchups seems to really delve into small sample size stuff. I'm not sure that tracks. But the expected stuff is also still a work in progress. It's ONLY taking into account Launch angle and exit velocity for example. I don't think it's even factoring in pitch selection, location, ballpark, wind factors, shifting, etc. We already know Citi Field suppresses exit velocity, which means all the expected stats at Citi Field will be slightly lower. Does that actually mean they're easier to field, or is the exit velocity suppression something different that doesn't reflect in the fielding?
  24. =batmagadanleadoff post_id=11470 time=1559162383 user_id=68] BFD. $25M is baseball chump change: it buys barely one week of one minimum wage rookie's prorated entry-level starting salary
