Seriously, why the horsefeathers would anyone think Descalso would possibly do anything there? WHY WOULD YOU TAKE OUT YOUR PITCHER WHO COULD GIVE YOU ANOTHER INNING FOR A GUY WHO IS HITTING LIKE A horsefeathering PITCHER.

...AND THEN FOLLOW THAT UP WITH A PITCHER WHO PITCHES LIKE A horsefeathering HITTER

 

(did I do that right)

[squally1313]

The .500 BA allowed against lefties for Monty this year definitely makes this a good move.

 

Hurry up Craig.

BURN HIMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

horsefeathers

 

McNeil is a hell of a hitter

[Schwarber Fan]

Monty sucks. So does the Mets bullpen but probably not today.

[Sammy Sofa]

Fuckin' Maddon is drunk scum.

[TMan92]

We really need to get a good lefty.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

I trust Ryan more than Monty.

[Derwood]

Mike Montgomery sucks and we were always right to hate him (outside of one evening in late 2016)

[UMFan83]

is it just me or has monty been under the radar terrible this season?

 

Working mostly as a 1-2 inning reliever, he's only had 2 appearances this year where he hasnt allowed a baserunner, and both of those outings he pitched for 0.1 IP.

 

Fails us again there.

[Cubswin11]

Monty horsefeathering sucks, quit using him as a lefty specialist/1 inning regular reliever.

[PackLandVA]

Wonder if Joe is gonna keep using Descalso to force Theo’s hand.

 

 

 

That’s probably not it.

[BigSlick]

Mike Montgomery sucks and we were always right to hate him (outside of one evening in late 2016)

hes' having a brutal year but he gave us a bunch of great innings the past 2.5 years, so he'll be dear to me forever

 

i think joe maddon should just be fired for this game. its not his fault, but he's managing it really terribly

[TMan92]

Schockingly, the Mets counter with a guy that has great stats. Are they filming porn with the pitching cameras in Arizona? Sure aren't helping our pitchers.

[UMFan83]

That hit brings Monty's line against lefties this year to: .520/.536/.958/1.494 in 28 PA

 

Edit: BTW, for his career Monty has a lower OPS allowed against RHB than LHB.

And I was in such a good mood, too.

[Schwarber Fan]

Great inning, idiots.

[squally1313]

Yeah I mean, that was just a groundball that got through, so hard to be too upset for today. But he's been terrible this year. I wonder if he's just starting to get fed up with his role here on the team. He's made it public he's wanted to be a starter for a couple years now, and really pitched like he deserved a rotation spot somewhere (if not here) for the last couple years. Then Chatwood falls apart, they bring in Hamels, resign Hamels, and then Chatwood takes his long relief job while he's recovering from an injury.

 

Regardless, he is not, nor has he ever been, a LOOGY, so this approach needs to stop. And Kyle Ryan isn't the answer either.

o hard to be too upset for today.

 

[squally1313]

Did this horsefeathers just intentionally walk someone to get to a much better hitter jesus horsefeathering christ

[squally1313]

No, I don't care if it worked. Pure incompetence

[BigSlick]

you better score some runs you idiots

Right, Monty has a role as a MLB pitcher. What he’s good at isn’t a good fit for us right now and he’s being used poorly. Hopefully a team with a reliever we target values Monty as a starter.
