Can't wait for Bryant and Rizzo to go back to back in the bottom of the 8th to put us down 7-3 -

Small cheval down, beer cracked. Fowler lead off shot and we roll from there. -
Its TBS. Game is probably over in real life. I was at Game 1 against the Cardinals and I noticed that clock that goes between innings started at 3:00 instead of 2:30, I assume for longer commercial purposes. Not sure if you were talking specifically about this series though.
-
Can this please not be the Bryant at bat where he takes like 3 fastballs right down the middle?
-
this mets team is basically the 03 cubs Yeah I didn't realize it at the time because I was like 14, but it must have been pretty frustrating for a Braves fan (or whoever else was good) to watch us and the cobbled together Florida Marlins in the NLCS.
-
I was fully prepared for us to lose a series somewhere along the line here. But I was at least expecting some respectable team to be the one to get there if it wasn't us, not this random assortment of veteran hitters and a bunch of young pitchers all peaking at the right time. Not saying it's over...I just felt like we still had something to prove against St. Louis, and was so happy that we went out and did that. Would have been the same against the Dodgers, or hell even Washington if you gave me the hypothetical in April. It sucks that out of all this, right now the Mets are somehow the heavy favorite to be the one to come out all of this.
-
Snydergaard went 133 last year, 179 this year. When Jake was 46 innings past his 2014 mark he was looking pretty nasty too. Unfortunately that was about a month ago.
-
Yeah those first two pitches to Montero should be enough for them to shut it down.
-
lol we play whoomp there it is Right...because that's awesome. What the hell is wrong with you? Fan of team thinks his teams stupid traditions are amazing, other teams stupid traditions are stupid. This has never happened before.
-
Nice sequence of events by that announcer there, talking about how Arrieta going from the right side makes him so tough against righties, which is great besides the fact that he was significantly better against lefties, and then says Arrieta doesn't have his fastball today and isn't throwing it about 3 seconds before Jake gets a K on a nasty two seamer.
-
I know this sounds smallball-y, but I'd really love if we could get a baserunner before there are two outs.
-
What? Just stop.
-
Don't overreact Joe. Jake is still by far our best option for the next 3 or 4 innings.
-
If Montero is going to keep hitting like he's been hitting....actually no, I'm not ready to say what I was about to say. Let's go Jake.

Jesus Seinfeld clap like a normal person.

Granderson has been a solid player for like 10 years. Murphy's a quality player too. The Mets are a good team and I expect an extremely competitive series. I was going to say this but i was too scared I'd be blasted by the "Murphy is a scrub" brigade. He was probably the best Mets hitter over the course of the entire season. Yes, the power is a bit flukey but this happens in the postseason. Murphy is a deluxe platoon player having the 2 week stretch of his life. In tonight's Mets lineup he is about the 6th or 7th best hitter depending on if you want to account for the opposing starter and platoon advantage. Murphy has played in over 140 games the last three years (with over 600 PAs each year) and has 5.6 WAR the last two years (wRCs 107 and 110). He's not this good, because no one is, but if he's their 7th best hitter we are in a lot of trouble.

Wait for the outside change up and take it out the other way. You aren't getting a fastball in the zone.
-
This K Zone makes watching the game so much worse. Umpires are always going to be influenced by how the catcher receives the ball. Not ideal, but it's how we've been conditioned to watch the ball. Just get rid of it.
-
Fowler, Bryant, Castro, and Coghlan all made very good contact. If Jake settles in we'll get those back.
-
Of course
-
They seem to be in fight off mode, which is smart. And when they're putting it in play, they're making solid contact. Thor throws gas, but we're fine with that. Long game ahead.
-
and yet weird things continue to happen to the cubs Wait...this is a bit right?
-
Eh, with the day off tomorrow and Lester ready for Game 5 if needed, no reason not to. Plus this means everyone will be available if we need to play Wednesday.
