NY Mets...May 2017

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Like I said...next guy out of the pen for TC gives up the lead.
Padres leadoff hitter in the 8th goes boom.

Smoker got smoked.

6-5, SD... top 8th.

Demoralizing.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

We're down 1 run heading to the home 9th.

LGM!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Of course.

Mets had bases loaded....no outs...all 3 were left stranded.

2 whiffs..and a pop out.


Final...SD 6-NY 5

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Can TC please be relieved of his mismanaging duties now?

Jay Bruce must be more hurt than the team says...

If he's not...then why wasn't he PHing in the 9th???

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

sheeesh....this move backfired.

Mets send Robles to minors, recall Smoker

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Ugly recap from last night...

Padres rally late, hold off Mets in 9th for 6-5 win



Tonight's rubber game....

The rebuilding Padres plan to call up RHP Dinelson Lamet to start the series finale Thursday in place of injured Jered Weaver. It will mark the major league debut for Lamet, who is 3-2 with a 3.23 ERA in eight starts at Triple-A El Paso. Jacob deGrom (3-1, 3.56) pitches for the Mets. He threw seven innings last Friday in a 3-0 win over the Angels and has a 1.97 ERA in 42 career starts at Citi Field.

They shouldn't play tonight. It's been raining steady all day and there are flood warnings for this evening.

Yeah....I heard.

Yankees/Royals game got washed out.

If they don't play tonight, then they'll have to travel to Pittsburgh for a weekend series with last night's sour taste still lingering...but then again seems like the only thing that can save TC and this gas can BP right now is a rain out.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

I don't get why they haven't already postponed this one. The Yanks/Royals game was erased pretty early on today, and it's not like the weather has been getting any better as the day wore on.

Even if they somehow manage to get this game in...the Mets chances of winning just dropped tenfold...

deGrom scratched....Montero will be on the hill.

DeGrom scratched by Mets because of weather


Mets lineup..weather permitting.

Reyes - SS
Bruce - RF
Walker - 2B
Duda - 1B
Flores - 3B
Granderson - CF
d'Arnaud - C

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Yikes....Montero really sucks.

Hope it starts raining before the 5th inning and doesn't stop....
Already down 3-1 in the 3rd....he's near 90 pitches....NINETY!

Duda went Boom in the 2nd.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Reynolds PHing for Montero.

Ughhhhh

TC = Totally Clueless

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

last night's stupidity:

Lamet solid for Padres, Mets lose after pushing back deGrom

The Mets activated SS Asdrubal Cabrera (sprained thumb) from the 10-day DL on Thursday and optioned C Kevin Plawecki to Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding roster move.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Mets swashbuckle their way to a much needed win.
Jake tossed a solid 8.1...and he got some nice run support from Walker & Duda.

Mets can't hold a lead....lose in the 10th.

Jaso's RBI singles in 9th, 10th rally Pirates past Mets 5-4

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Matt Harvey has struggled of late for the Mets, and his career numbers against the Pirates aren't much better (0-1, 5.29 ERA in three starts). It's also been a rough year for Tyler Glasnow, although three of his last five outings have been quality starts.
