Syndergard looking incredible

ZGiants98 : 10/3/2015 1:51 pm : link

early.

Really nice work

jpkmets : 10/3/2015 1:52 pm : link

by Thor in the third -- TDA muffed that strike 3 with runner on 2nd, no out to make it 1st and 3rd no outs. Thor just worked Rendon for the 2nd out with a pretty heater outside black. Got Escobar then to fly out lazily -- really nice stuff.

BTW

jpkmets : 10/3/2015 1:54 pm : link

Great to see Cespedes back in there. I must have missed him being good to go, because I was pleasantly surprised to see him in there. He was scuffling a bit before the hand issue (since getting drilled in the side by the Marlins) so I'd love to see him hit a ball or two hard today or tomorrow.

robbed by the howling wind taking that ball foul.

But good AB. Let's cash some chips, fellas!

beautiful

cmon cespedes. Get hot.

need to take

advantage when the P has control issues

What are sun outages

JayBinQueens : 10/3/2015 2:06 pm : link

and why are they possibly going to affect the broadcast?

JayBinQueens : 10/3/2015 2:16 pm : link

looks in pain. Even in the on deck circle he's smarting

Mets offense has not scored in 22 innings

Vanzetti : 10/3/2015 2:35 pm : link

All that "rest" seems to have had the opposite effect of what was intended.

Gotta get it going.

Noah

stillpoe : 10/3/2015 2:37 pm : link

has been dominating the past 2 starts. More importantly, he seems to have better command of his breaking ball, which pretty much makes him unhittable.

Syndegaard

jpkmets : 10/3/2015 2:37 pm : link

really looking sharp.

Thor drills Harper in the knee

jpkmets : 10/3/2015 2:43 pm : link

Hope there isn't an answer from the Nats. Rather not lose anyone else to this sort of thing.

Thor peaking at the

pjcas18 : 10/3/2015 2:48 pm : link

right time.

Can we score a fucking run please?

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 2:49 pm : link

This strike zone is fucking horrendous

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 2:54 pm : link

That's disappointing

schabadoo : 10/3/2015 2:57 pm : link

Makes sense to avoid the double play, just didn't work out.

Great!!!

timintey : 10/3/2015 2:58 pm : link

ugggghhhh

We need to get some damn runs!!!!

timintey : 10/3/2015 2:59 pm : link

JFC!!!!

Harvey

Rflairr : 10/3/2015 3:07 pm : link

I wouldn't even pitch Harvey tonight. The Pads are running out a AAA lineup. And have no interest in beating the Dodgers. They blew home field when they were swept by the shitty Phils

Yes!!!

timintey : 10/3/2015 3:17 pm : link

Juan

Nice lagares

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 3:18 pm : link

Tie game 1-1

Williams sticking with the lefty there

schabadoo : 10/3/2015 3:20 pm : link

So strange.

If Harvey feels more comfortable going a few innings tonight versus going two weeks between starts you go with him.

With Conforto, Nieuwenhuis and Johnson on the bench it was a choice of Grace vs. Lagares or Martin vs. one of those 3

Harvey has indicated his desire to pitch on a regular schedule

Torrag : 10/3/2015 3:25 pm : link

He'll be throwing sides if he doesn't get his work tonight. Give him his 5 innings and call it a night.

If he brings in a righty, Conforto is going to pinch hit. You much rather have Lagares up than Conforto.

Sure, challenge Harper

timintey : 10/3/2015 3:35 pm : link

why not?

Murph fucks up a routine double play ball to prolong the inning

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 3:35 pm : link

and harper on cue hits a 2 run bomb

Defense costs the Mets

Mike in NY : 10/3/2015 3:35 pm : link

Also they should have had Niese warming up

Defense. Yes. But that was a terrible pitch by Reed

Vanzetti : 10/3/2015 3:41 pm : link

Hanging slider. Knee high. Just where Harper likes it.

Teammates have to pick each other up.

That double play fuck up

ZGiants98 : 10/3/2015 3:42 pm : link

was as much on Tejada's shitty throw as it was on Murphy's bobble.

Ah well

ZGiants98 : 10/3/2015 3:43 pm : link

I haven't felt we were getting home field for days now. Not overly worried about it. We may even play looser on the road to open things up.

Seems like a lot of our bats

ZGiants98 : 10/3/2015 3:44 pm : link

have gone cold at the wrong time as well. Lets hope not.

i dont think it will make a huge difference

Tejadas throw was rushed because of the murphy bobble.

Today isn't a fun day to play baseball

Headhunter : 10/3/2015 3:54 pm : link

nothing much to play for( I really don't care about home field,I kind of prefer opening on the road, but that's another conversation) What I would like us 1 more win to get to 90. These games don't carry over to next Friday, the important thing is for deGrom, Harvey & Syndergaard to get their work in. Period, end of story for me

How many times have the mets struck out today?

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 3:55 pm : link

A dozen yet?

1 run on 5 hits

timintey : 10/3/2015 3:58 pm : link

not gonna get it done... especially on the road in the playoffs. Need to get these bats to wake up!

Sorry

seanr : 10/3/2015 4:10 pm : link

But if I was Collins starting lineup for game 2. This team is way too happy making the playoffs

Bye bye homefield

speedywheels : 10/3/2015 4:22 pm : link

At least Thor pitched well...

I am most worried about our performance against

CMicks3110 : 10/3/2015 5:33 pm : link

Left Handed pitchers. Cuddyer is such a big step down from Conforto IMO, and lefties neutralize Granderson as well. Sure, Wright hits better against Lefties, but its not discernable enough to make up for the production lost from Conforto/Granderson.

In all likelihood

CMicks3110 : 10/3/2015 5:34 pm : link

we're only going to face one right handed starter this series, and that's greinke. If I'm the dogers, I'm starting Kershaw twice, and Alex Wood in game 3.

Dodgers activate Puig

Steve in South Jersey : 10/3/2015 5:51 pm : link

he will bat 6th tonight. He has missed so much time I doubt he'll bring his A game to the Mets series.
Link - ( New Window )

assuming no platoons except cuddyer/conforto

CGiants07 : 10/3/2015 7:22 pm : link

against lefties i go:

granderson
Murphy
Cespedes
wright
D'Arnaud/Duda
Duda/D"Arnaud
Cuddyer
Tejeda
p

Scherzer perfect thru 4

speedywheels : 10/3/2015 8:04 pm : link

They haven't even gotten anything close to a good swing...

when the hell is this team

timintey : 10/3/2015 8:16 pm : link

Going to start hitting again????

It's a concern, especially with them basically having a week off before they play again

Kelly johnson error

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 8:30 pm : link

leads to nats first run

Being no hit through the 6th

Giants4246 : 10/3/2015 8:40 pm : link

This has 1-0 written all over it

speedywheels : 10/3/2015 8:43 pm : link

This offense blows chunks right now.

Losing 5 in a row is not the way to enter the playoffs.
