Back to back baby!!!
This is crazy  
PhiPsi125 : 5/23/2016 9:34 pm : link
We owe the Nats a drubbing like this.
Before this season is over  
steve in ky : 5/23/2016 9:34 pm : link
I hope the Mets tear up his deal and lock Ces into a longer deal
LOL. Wow  
ZGiants98 : 5/23/2016 9:34 pm : link
Holy offensive explosion !
We instantly changed this series  
ZGiants98 : 5/23/2016 9:35 pm : link
to a huge advantage to us now. Love our chances of taking 2 of 3 with Matz still going Wednesday.
These games must be on some type of delays because  
PhiPsi125 : 5/23/2016 9:36 pm : link
my MLB AT BAT app keeps telling when they score like 5 seconds before I see it on tv. Cespedes hadn't even swung yet and I knew he hit a HR.

Does that happen to anyone else?
Cut your hair, Gio!

Sometimes yes which is why I turn score notifications off. Cant stand it. But you might like it.
So every hitter

He and Ron rotate some series.
Steve  
NewBlue : 5/23/2016 10:18 pm : link
He did not take that long west coast trip, and I dont thing he was back on our return
Keith clearly works out a nice schedule for himself  
PhiPsi125 : 5/23/2016 10:23 pm : link
He doesn't want to grind out a lot of traveling. Nor does he probably need to either.

Keith was in the booth for the homestand, if that's what you're asking.
thats what is wrong with our country today  
NewBlue : 5/23/2016 10:26 pm : link
Ralph Bob and Lindsey would be ashamed to miss a game.....these candy ass lazy jollies take far too many games off.....only 1/2 serious

NewBlue : 5/23/2016 10:27 pm : link
He most have been napping when I was listing
Do you not like Keith in the booth?  
steve in ky : 5/23/2016 10:29 pm : link
You sound kind of down on him.

I love that he and Ronnie work the games. Yhey are a real treat for me as a long time fan.

STEVE...I don't care too much for Keith  
NewBlue : 5/23/2016 10:30 pm : link

I don't follow the minors all that much  
steve in ky : 5/23/2016 10:37 pm : link
but I thought I remember some posts this past year that indicated Reynalds was a decent hitter?
I just caught up  
ZGiants98 : 5/23/2016 10:37 pm : link
They took no batting practice today? That's pretty funny.

He raked 2 years ago now. He was awful last year in AAA and really is only here because he's a back up SS with Flores out.
so Z should this be a trend  
NewBlue : 5/23/2016 10:39 pm : link

Well that was a satisfying  
Stufftherun : 5/23/2016 10:47 pm : link

What with Reynolds? I used to think he had shot of being a "better Tejada". Sort of a nice utility guy but he hasn't been good for some time now. He could bounce back in AAA this year but he's pretty much been surpassed by TJ Rivera, Cheech, ect. and that are all beating down the door.
Very unexpected...  
ZGiants98 : 5/23/2016 10:48 pm : link
Certainly wasn't expecting a laugher Gio VS Colon. Ill take it. Interesting that they took no batting practice. Might have allowed them to loosen up a bit. Who knows.
I think he was alluding to skipping BP  
steve in ky : 5/23/2016 10:49 pm : link
.
Oh lol my bad.  
ZGiants98 : 5/23/2016 10:54 pm : link
I think it would be pretty funny if they went as long as possible without taking BP. Would never happen though. haha.
Back to Loney  
sphinx : 5/23/2016 10:57 pm : link
Ken Rosenthal4 minutes ago
Could Loney be quick, low-cost solution for #Mets at 1B? Can leave for MLB offer. Began day batting .333 with .784 OPS for #Padres at AAA.

Why the no swing?  
sphinx : 5/23/2016 11:00 pm : link

Terry said Colon had a stiff back early. Cruised through 7.

aha  
sphinx : 5/23/2016 11:02 pm : link
Marc Carig
Colon pitched through some back stiffness. It's why he basically stood in the batters' box and did nothing. Moreso than usual.

It was a promise he had to keep  
sphinx : 5/23/2016 11:07 pm : link
Matt Ehalt
Bartolo actually told Ramos tonight he promised not to swing.

To stand there in the batters box  
Stufftherun : 5/23/2016 11:36 pm : link
and never take the bat off your shoulder, you knew something wasn't right physically.
3 quickies before bed time  
NewBlue : 5/23/2016 11:37 pm : link
1. What is Bartolo screwing around with an interpreter (though a cute one tonite,...he ought to treat her.....never mind)
27 years in this league he knows how to es speeak english...he's is toying around with us like he does with the batters.


2.I love me some dingers but what a pleasure it is to see hit after hit after hit, that's the way to play the game.


3. I know it's just a late May victory, but this 60 year old guy sure does know how to sleep better after a W.

Loney is a quick fix option but not terribly hard to find 1st baseman with no power

It's twice in a row he did that. Crap like that really frustrates me. You don't even try?



Something has to be up ...two identical AB's.


TC said in his post-game that Colon had a stiff back. Got some treatment and was able to go, nothing to worry about at all, but he told TC he would not be hitting a Home Run this evening.

Ill take those at bats all year if he pitches like this. A gem in a big spot. Great win.

I don't see too much hope today. The Nats will smack Colon fast/slow pitches. And the Campbell/Plawecki combo are 6 or more sure outs.
Campbell can't hit period and Plawecki has yet to live up to the hype that was given about his hitting. Collins does not have any options as far as players. But, IMO he should drop Wright to 6 or 7 in the batting order.


sucks. We'll get em tomorrow. Lets Go Metssssssss

...Mets lose....

Boomer and Carton :

"This team is in trouble!" "Trade this guy...trade that one!!!" "Something just has to be done ASAP" "Mets suck...going to get ugly."


TOday:

Boomer: "I'm just sick and tired of the negativity." "Where does it all come from??" "This team is great. Stop with the complaints"


Ridiculous

Are you really expecting quality content from those morons?

arcarsenal : 5/24/2016 8:30 am : link
Meh, Boomer usually doesn't do that when they lose.. Carton is always trying to create controversy and conversation by saying "shocking" things... but Boomer is usually pretty even-keeled when it comes to the Mets and Rangers.

It's a good idea not to swing when he's got a bad bat, but why tell the opposing catcher? At least make Gio think he has to work.
.  
arcarsenal : 5/24/2016 8:41 am : link
Yeah, I mean... it's funny in retrospect now because it didn't matter but I have no idea what Bart was thinking telling Ramos that.

At least we know why we weren't seeing the HR cuts we usually see from him, though.
