NFT: Cardinals at Mets Game 1

ZGiants98 : 5/18/2015 6:04 pm
Curtis Granderson, RF

Eric Campbell, 3B

Lucas Duda, 1B

Michael Cuddyer, LF

Daniel Murphy, 2B

Wilmer Flores, SS

Kevin Plawecki, C

Matt Harvey, RHP

Juan Lagares, CF

And here is the Cardinals' lineup:

Kolten Wong, 2B

Matt Carpenter, 3B

Matt Holliday, LF

Jhonny Peralta, SS

Matt Adams, 1B

Yadier Molina, C

Jason Heyward, RF

Randal Grichuk, CF

John Lackey, RHP

Got to say, Im hoping for a split. The Cardinals might be the best team in baseball. They have fantastic pitching and let's face it, until TDA and Wright come back we won't have a legit lineup or a particularly deep one.

Things have been looking up though. Certain players are heating up and TDA and Wright performed baseball activities today! We are still in first! LGM!

That double play by Flores was a key play.

He does do some good things defensively.
While that was a great play by Flores

getting picked off by a mile hurt big time. Like most Met fans, I look for things t o like but patience is wearing thin.

The end of Kirk as a Met?
Hopefully.

He's been terrible.
Flores

hit 3 homeruns and didnt strikeout once this past week.

Also Harvey is a great pitcher. He struggled early on and then found his groove or "stuff" to finish with 8 scoreless.
Cuddyer has been far worse than Flores

OverpAid and underproductive
At this point

I think we just have to ride it out with Flores at SS. He is middle of the road in terms of WAR and providing this team with much needed pop when NOBODY else seems to be providing any (Duda and Cuddy are giving us nothing right now power-wise).

Yes, his defense leaves a lot to be desired, but you have to hope that maybe he learns from his mistakes and hopefully gets better as the year goes on.

Plus, hes not the worst SS out there defensively. Middle of the pack in Range Factor. His fielding stats are right there with Semien, Desmond, Andrus, and Segura (all of whom are SS' known for their bats more than their glove).

trusting Robles and Goeddel more was good thing and we got the good A Torres who struck out everybody he faced. Also Familia was a bit unlucky.

I didn't think  
Metnut : 5/19/2015 10:46 am : link
Familia pitches bad. Sometimes shit happens. It was a 1-run lead that got tied on a shallow sacrifice fly. I'm concerned that Collins is overworking him (bringing him in for 4 run leads, etc.), but last night is the sort of things that happens over the course of a year.

Familia will likely hit a real slump at some point and hopefully we don't all lose our minds.
