Not everything is the managers fault. Familia isn't a robot. Unfortunately he didn't have it today. Came at the worst time possible.
Maybe, maybe not. Still wasn't ideal pitching him yesterday.
C'mon man, he needs 4 days rest? If throwing 9 pitches rendered him ineffective the next day he shouldn't be in the majors.
Arc, it's hard to argue with your logical answer. But I'm not wired to give Collins credit for anything, lol. He used up any good will I may have for him years ago, lol.
LOL, I know man.. it's all good. As great as Familia has been this year, this one's on him. Sucks it happened today, we really need this one. Have to find a way.
And come on, Kirk.. JFC..
and there's a warm kick in the nuts from "old kirk"
that's a lot to ask from a guy in his first year as a closer
it worked a couple of times early on when Mets pen was shaky
but now getting into the dog days Familia should be used more traditionally. He's probably tired physically and emotionally. Reduce the strain
Ask a guy to get four outs after pitching the previous night is stupid
on a late inning arm as a bridge to Familia. In light of the fact that should they make the playoffs, Mejia is ineligible. There are a lot of arms like that available and they still might add a bat, but I have my doubts
Crazy. Jeurys Familia 0-for-2 on save conversions since the All-Star break.

Tejada had a beauty of a bunt before.
I wouldn't expect Kirk to be any good at bunts unfortunately. Let him swing for the fences
maybe it's time to rethink that
Can't really fault Collins for last night but then I don't think you should ask him to get a four out save the next day.
The 0-1 FB he swung through was right down the middle too. Really bad AB but Kirk completely F'd up that inning.
The off day tomorrow means the best relievers pitch first.
a lame bunt attempt and two flailing strikeouts
His zone has been terrible all afternoon
Joc Pederson sac fly coming up
