One More Win And We Have Hope
I’m not gonna lie, I looked at the wild card standings this morning. Why not? Don’t cost nuthin’. The elusive dream of .500 is but one win away….And we have our great opener Carson Seymour leading the way today. I’ve never felt more confident in my entire life…..
Could just be clickbait for all I know.
The numerous bizarre pronunciations of Durocher I guess are indicative of an AI thing. I’m sure the guys here will know instantly…
Yeah, I have never heard his name pronounced like that.
The hunt for a shot in October is in the Giants cross-hairs. We know it and the Mets know it and Im loving it.
The Mets unveiled their Tim Lincecum worshipping young SP last night…
Putting him on a pedestal? Let’s see him perform in upcoming Tigers or better yet Philly games.
See for yourself…
Kid looks like he’s 12.
I texted the very same thing to a friend, Chuck. He does do a pretty good Timmy impersonation, fwiw…
Right foot in the air at the end sure looks familiar.
sheesh! Yep, Lincecum, first thing I thought of and yep, the flying right foot. Wonder if he was a Timmy fan growing up?
Big time, bb…
While the long term ADC contracts will loom for awhile, Posey has made some under radar deals that look pretty good right now. Btw Dom smith Lucchesi Butto and Peguero these guys are filling holes right now and could wind up sticking around. Makes scouting dept look pretty good, especially if Tidwell and Gilbert (still in search of first walk) or Rodriguez pan out.
Mets have rough schedule going forward that include Detroit Reds Phils Rangers Padres Cubs.
They dd win last night, lowering magic # to eliminate Giants to 22.
Break up the Giants ! …
We need a closer. This guy is still alive if he’s up to it…
Ha, good one! threw pretty hard back then.
Pretty dependable guy is how I remember him. Especially when he wore his glasses…
I remember when Matos arrived with the hot streak, a lot of the contact was soft. This looks different.
But those slides, it started as a joke, it can’t really be a thing a major league team has to worry about, can it?!? Is there a precedent?
to be fair, the ump had no business being on the base line by the plate last night. Matos was perplexed as he approached. But a fucking barrel roll?
Matos was perplexed as he approached has an inescapable ring to it. I may have stumbled onto something there.
Get to work, you have several hundred pages to go.
LULZ !!
Matos seems to have low level baseball instincts…
At least his bat swinging instincts seem to have sharpened.
he’s on the ball and I think a bit angry.
Ramos and Flores back in there vs. LHP starter. Marlins beating Mets.
Saw story about Yaz on ATF, so checked out stat line with Royals. .282/.370/.654 7 HRs in 78 ABs. Had 8 in 320 with SF, and .685 OPS hmmnn
The combined numbers are a typical season for him. A solid B- player who’s had a better career than most. Sad to see him go, but the calls to look to the future were on the mark.
Love this:

Pollyanna? I don’t think so . . . Giants and any team that’s sub .500 should at least read and (perhaps) heed.
Seymour with what might turn out to be the inning of his career.
I’m waiting for an announcer to observe that when Adames is pulling the ball, you know he’s locked in.
4 straight Ks for Lee. That’s pretty weird.
uh oh. I got a bad feeling about this game.
Maybe Seymour and Beck will check themselves and pass the credit on to Knizner.
Since this is a downer day:
Giants catcher Tom Murphy claims malpractice over handling of injury: ‘Absolute nightmare’

I refuse to pay the comical to monetize my personal info. So–is he going to sue? How will he evade the mlb arbitration kangaroo court?
He’s not sure yet about litigation, no mention of the arbitration court. It sounds like the kind of misdiagnosis the rest of us are subject to. Giants cavalier in their communications with him and then they ignored him.
well I’d say he’s fucked–workers comp and a small settlement– and if so that’s too bad. The team owes every player the best care and treatment, imo.
Koss probably has a lower HR rate than Seymour.
Cal’s new QB starts well.
DBax pitching (!) held Dogs to 1 run as Pads cut lead to 1. Mets lost but Giants L doesn’t help magic #
