OT: Official 2022 NY Mets Season And Post Season Thread

[robjknight]

Haven't got a leadoff batter in an inning on yet. That's the 1st problem.

The Marlins have every inning!
Looks like Walker is throwing softballs up there.

 

[robjknight]

Marlins look like the playoffs team

 

[Knight Shift]

Nolan Ryan Lusardo pitching for the Marlins pitching each inning to three blind mice.

Marlins look like the playoffs team

For these two days at least

Their staff looks amazing…and we didn’t even see Alcantara this time (though the Mets have handled him).

 

[Doctor Worm]

Starting to hear the boos.

 

[Knight Shift]

Bring in Ruf from the bullpen.

Bring in Ruf from the bullpen.

Do you really want to waste him down four?

 

[Knight Shift]

Escobar after dogging that grounder:

 

[cubuffsdoug]

Why on earth was walker still in this game against the hottest batter on earth who already hit him hard twice tonight?!

Why wasn't Escobar closer to the line? The same guy is pulling every pitch down the line. You don't need analytics to tell you to adjust your position. Then again, the Mets should have three infielders to that side of the diamond.

 

[gmay8]

As expected, no help from the Nats. Braves tie it up late.
expecting to be down 1 game heading into the weekend series with the Braves. Should have been up one.

 

[Knight Shift]

Double play coming with Lindor. Wait for it. . . . .

EDIT- Next up for the DP, Canha.

 

[redking]

Wish Lindor took some pitches in that AB

Same with McNeil. Awful approach by both of them.

bailed out by Escobar!

Totally redeemed himself.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Diaz has to pitch to a 2nd inning if the Mets don’t score here.

 

[redking]

Need some walk off HRs in NYC and DC.

 

[Knight Shift]

Pinch run for Nido here. Vogelbach.

 

[Knight Shift]

Call it crazy, but Pete should not swing away here and get into DP. Lay down a bunt and let Gore get to third.

I was right. Golden sombrero polar bear.

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Nats win !

 

[MadRU]

Thank you Nats

 

[Knight Shift]

When your 1-4 hitters combine for 1 hit, can't blame Vogelbach.

Nats win.

 

[Knight Shift]

Oh no, Smith

 

[Mr Magoo]

Omg, Drew Smith…smh. Fly ball pitcher

 

[RUforJERSEY]

Can't believe Alonso swung at that pitch. Was trying to not only win it but avoid Drew Smith.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

This game just grew that much more in magnitude.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Nice Job! Let’s get this.

 

[Doctor Worm]

Oh no, Smith

And here I thought you were the optimist on this board.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

Hell yeah! Now let's take this thing to the house. Right now.

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes !!!!!!!!

 

[Zak57]

Esco!!! LFGM!!!!!

 

[gmay8]

As expected, no help from the Nats. Braves tie it up late.

Absolutely thrilled to be so wrong. Thrilled!

credit to doc worm with the patience. I don’t have it.

 

[yesrutgers01]

Tonight was as big as last night was bad.

 

[MadRU]

Needed that one.

 

[robjknight]

Escobar the big hero when others disappoint!

 

[Doctor Worm]

This game just grew that much more in magnitude.

It sure f'n did.

A loss, and we would have needed two in Atlanta. Now, getting one is acceptable. That would leave us tied with the tiebreaker in hand.

Get two, and it's all but over.

 

[cicero grimes]

thank god for escobar. extend him.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

Woo Hoo!!!!

 

[redking]

So… what other positions can Baty play?
