  1. Chapman should not have been used today, imo.
  2. Chapman is going to be dead by the time October rolls around.
  3. This Giants/Mets matchup feels like the baseball equivalent of two people trying to clamber over each other to escape the sarlaac pit.
  4. With a 1,000,000 game lead I'm cool with him trying to find out what he has in these spare parts that make up the rest of the pen. I'm fine with Patton being used, jut not with multiple runners on. Patton has had his own share of control issues this year. Bring him in with the bases clean.
  5. Joe's bullpen management lately has left a lot to be desired.
  6. I really don't like using Patton on this spot at all. Bring in a more effective reliever to get out of this, then use Patton to start an inning. Don't bring in a pitcher with control issues with guys on base.
  7. Few things are as irritating as your pitcher issuing walks when you have a big lead.
  8. Man, the Mets are...not good.
  9. That definitely seems light. I seem to recall a couple of occasions this year where the "How far did it fly" number was well short of the Statcast number.
  10. I'm 98% sure its going to be here. I really hope not, but if it is, we might as well start calling our bullpen the legion of doom
  11. I'm just mad this is the only game of the series I got to watch live, and it's probably the only one the Cubs will lose.
  12. If JHey can avoid gidp here he already had when i posted that My MLB.tv has fallen behind, I guess.
  13. I wouldn't expect any closer ot be brought into that situation. I just believe that if it's a high leverage situation and the reliever you bring in is as wild as Edwards was, you don't wait to pull him until things get out of hand. Joe got him at least two batters too late for my liking.
  14. Haters gotta see what's going on They can take a good, long look at the 13 game lead we'll still have after today.
  15. Yeah, Edwards should have been pulled when he loaded the bases initially. Not great bp management here.
  16. What's up with Rondon? I know he was supposed to throw a bullpen on Friday.
  17. Back in mid-July versus the Giants, iirc. He was never going to be great, but it's really too bad he went in the toilet when he signed with us.
  18. The Mets are now only one game over .500. It seems like a pile of mediocre pursuing the second WC.
  19. 7 IP, 2H, 3BB, 7K for EJax tonight.
  20. Nope. He's about as temperamental on the mound as any pitcher I've ever seen. Simply being temperamental =/= being a prima donna. He's just a redneck spaz.
  21. He really looks like the love child of Shrek and Donkey.
