SPAMPitchers dual over on YES Network
0-0 in the 8th
Agree with last sentence on McNeil's limited body of work.I did. Career .250 something batting average, homerun production up as well as strike outs. The hype around Conforto is too much. McNeil is a better hitter.
The amount of bad takes I just can't. Conforto has been a way above average hitter as a Met except for 2016. Since his callup he's been a top 50 hitter in all of baseball at any position. Can he be even better? Sure but he just turned 27 so will really be hitting his prime now. This will be another guy most of you want gone and then when he is really killing it for another team you'll ask why we let him walk. He is a young star who we should sign long term immediately if we can.
I dont want him gone. But since hes a Boras client, he will be. I just hope BVW doesnt tradenhim for a 34 year old pitcher with 3 TJs who was a former client.Boris client, signing him not going to happen.

He didn't pinch hit Dozier for Hamilton. He brought in Hamilton to play center field, since Nimmo was out of the game.Why did Rojas pinch hit Nimmo for Dozier who he then pinch hit for with Hamilton. Bad move all around there.

I agree I would not have pinch hit Nimmo for Dozier. But that's not why they lost.They didn't lose the game in the 8th inning. They lost it in the first seven.
Tough loss. Tanaka was excellent. Ottavino's control issues cost us the game.Pitchers dual over on YES Network

BVW is the gift that keeps giving. BVW signed guys who limit what a team can do. How is it possible Miami can bring up cold bodies that deliver while established Mets players continue to fall flat? In fact it's not just Miami, but most of the national league seems better at finding talent and value at the same time. When the Mets find value, talent is lacking. When the Mets find talent, it's passed the expiration date.He didn't pinch hit Dozier for Hamilton. He brought in Hamilton to play center field, since Nimmo was out of the game.

Limited career for McNeil. Stop wetting your pants over him. 0/4 last night. Conforto batted .250 last night, and they have the same BA for the season. 0__0Conforto is like .257 and McNeil is what .320 for career?
They now have herd immunity!Miami Marlins, who knew one of the side effects of COVID 19 was it made you play better?:Wink::Baseball::WideSmile:
I actually was praying for a Marlins/Orioles World Series to happen in this short season. Same way inwas praying for a Pacers/Grizzlies NBA Finals but the NBA refs will never let that happen.They now have herd immunity!

Nimmo's play was a real head scratcher. He's running from second to third and has three choices as to where to focus his eyes:What is your problem with McNeil? maybe his back is still bugging him. Dom did not get the job done. And Nimmo with his lousy baserunning. And the kid at second robbed McNeil of a hit.
Maybe he needed to take a short break because he was out of breath from running to first base after all of those walks. [roll]Nimmo's play was a real head scratcher. He's running from second to third and has three choices as to where to focus his eyes:
Only one wrong choice, and he found it.
- Watch the play down the left field line (in his field of vision) and see the ball evade the left fielder.
- Watch the third base coach waving him around.
- Watch neither, and slide into third for some unknown reason. Even if the leftfielder fields it cleanly he has no play.
Mets usually finds these types of players who plays well 3/5ths of the time until it's time to screw up. You dont see that on the Dodgers, Cubs, and its freaking batsh** crazy that the Padres and Reds among others are about to surpass the Mets.Nimmo's play was a real head scratcher.

WTH? (Why the hate?)McNeil 0/4 again.
I'd have been good with 0/5, and very happy with 0/6.McNeil 0/4 again.
I don't know enough about the Marlins to answer thatAll kidding aside, are any of them still out of the lineup due to CV?
Otherwise you will be quite put out.David Peterson is the second best pitcher in the rotation and better not be shoved into the bullpen when others come back.
No hate. Just wondering why fans fawn over him and crap all over Conforto. Not a single positive post about his HR last night. Maybe it's the mature of the internet. LGMWTH? (Why the hate?)
No one hates Conforto. McNeil seems to be an afterthought, and all he has done is surpass expectations. People love the underdog.No hate. Just wondering why fans fawn over him and crap all over Conforto. Not a single positive post about his HR last night. Maybe it's the mature of the internet. LGM
The Dodgers or Nationals will sign him and he will become multi year All Star.[roll]No one hates Conforto. McNeil seems to be an afterthought, and all he has done is surpass expectations. People love the underdog.
Conforto (first-round pick): 5 years-batting avg.254 poor, 30+ HRs last year outstanding, fielding average.
McNeil (12th round pick): 2 years-batting avg .320, 23 HRs last year exceeded expectations, fielding average, but can play multiple positions.
It's decision time for Conforto. Expectations for Conforto were high since he was a first-round draft pick. Do you sign him to a big contract even though some of his stats don't back it? Or do you go in another direction? The other issue with Conforto is his agent.
