Tough pitching  
Metnut : 7/27/2016 11:07 am : link
matchup today (Wainwright has settled down since bad start) but we're at home so this should be close to a coin flip. Hopefully they start Flores to reward him for another multi-hit game last night, and with Reyes banged up.

Mets need to string a few series wins in a row together. A win today really sets things up nice for the weekend. LGM
It was only a matter of time with Reyes

has always been a china doll.

Good opportunity for Flores to play the next 4-5 days.
Dont necessarily agree with logic  
bhill410 : 7/27/2016 11:28 am : link
that home field somehow pushes Verrett and Wainwright to a coin flip. Fact is we are going to have to hit today, something that we havent done in droves recently.
gotta win your home games  
spike : 7/27/2016 11:36 am : link
somehow scratch some runs against the Cards pitching, maybe by hitting a few solo shots.

Cespedes has struggled a bit recently so we need some Flo & Loney magic right now.

not giving me much hope for wins lately. You would think that at some point it will turn around...today...maybe????

Well... I did say "close" to a coin flip... Vegas has Cards favorite at -123... so we are slight underdogs. Need to either just score runs, or at least run up Wainwright's pitch count to get to STL's very vulnerable middle-relief.
Got some great seats for tomorrow's Degrom outing vs Rockies

I'm excited!
Mets have had success against Wainwright in the past

#Mets Game 100 of 162, vs. STL:

Granderson RF
Cabrera SS
Cespedes LF
Loney 1B
Walker 2B
Flores 3B
Conforto CF
d’Arnaud C
Verrett RHP

Such a poorly constructed lineup  
ZGiants98 : 7/27/2016 3:33 pm : link
Cabrera 2 and Walker 5. Ugh. Meanwhile Flores, Conforto, and TDA bat 6-8. lol
Loney sees a lot of pitches it seems  
pjcas18 : 7/27/2016 3:36 pm : link
I'd swap him and TDA and also I'd swap Conforto and Cabrera.
TC seems  
pjcas18 : 7/27/2016 3:37 pm : link
so intent on going L/R
So much better  
ZGiants98 : 7/27/2016 3:41 pm : link
Granderson
TDA
Conforto
Cespedes
Loney
Flores
Walker
Cabrera
Nats and Fish  
madgiantscow009 : 7/27/2016 3:49 pm : link
already won today.

Lets go Metsies.
Stop batting Walker  
spike : 7/27/2016 3:50 pm : link
5th!
Lonely and Walker batting 4-5  
Vanzetti : 7/27/2016 4:31 pm : link
Is terrible. It's positioning guys based on their veteran status.

I don't think TC quite realizes that if Mets miss playoffs, he is quite possibly out of a job
TC should probably have a team issued suspension  
bhill410 : 7/27/2016 4:41 pm : link
for batting Walker 5th. I think Flores had more hits last night than walker has had in the entire month.

Mets people say other teams are still asking for the moon in trade proposals. Perhaps there will be more progress this weekend, they speculate, once teams get more reasonable.

They obviously are. The Braves just received Travis Demeritte from the Rangers for P Lucas Harrell and P Dario Alvarez who were both signed to minor league deals this season. Demeritte was Texas’ first round pick (30th overall) in the 2013 draft and has 25 homeruns and a .935 OPS in High A.
Wow!  
speedywheels : 7/27/2016 7:38 pm : link
Not only a hit with RISP, but it was Walker!

Knocks in Loney. TC looking like a genius. For moment anyway, lol...
Flores with another hit  
speedywheels : 7/27/2016 7:40 pm : link
I'm sure TC will bench him again once Reyes returns...

2 on, no out for Conforto....who promptly flies out...
And there's the GIDP..  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 7:43 pm : link
LOL. This team is allergic to big innings.
And......TDA with a GIDP  
speedywheels : 7/27/2016 7:44 pm : link
He can't even clear the pitcher's spot.

LOL...
And Verrett coughs the lead right back up  
speedywheels : 7/27/2016 7:56 pm : link
Inning started by walking Wainright...

Sigh...
Verrett sucks.  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 7:56 pm : link
Ugh.
Another double  
speedywheels : 7/27/2016 7:57 pm : link
3-1.

With Wainright on the mound and this meager offense, this one could be over...
Come on Flo  
ZGiants98 : 7/27/2016 8:19 pm : link
No double play here.

NL Team stats

BA with men on base ... Cards #4 .268, Mets #15 (last) .234

BA with RISP ... Cards #1 .294, Mets #15 (last) .207

BA with RISP, 2 out ... Cards #1 .259, Mets # 15 (last) .165

And I've got to stop beating this dead horse

Well that was a big cock tease  
ZGiants98 : 7/27/2016 8:27 pm : link

Can ANYONE on this fucking team get a big hit to drive runners in?  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 8:33 pm : link
Holy shit, man. I've never seen a team just flounder time after time in these situations like the Mets this year. It's almost hard to believe.. you'd think just by luck alone someone would come through once in a while.
come on Grandy  
spike : 7/27/2016 8:40 pm : link
get on base for Cespedes
Mets have 7 hits  
spike : 7/27/2016 8:43 pm : link
and yet have only 1 run.
One of Cabrera's better ABs with RISP  
Vanzetti : 7/27/2016 8:45 pm : link
He actually took a ball instead of striking out on three pitches like he normally does
RISPFAIL, RISPFAIL, RISPFAIL..  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 8:48 pm : link
This team frustrates me so fucking much.
ok. The biggest automatic  
ZGiants98 : 7/27/2016 8:54 pm : link
out got on base. Time for a big inning.
Come  
spike : 7/27/2016 8:56 pm : link
Flo. Give us some magic!
If we can't score again here I gotta turn this game off.  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 8:57 pm : link
Cmon, Wilmer.
at least  
spike : 7/27/2016 8:58 pm : link
Verrett has been pretty good so far except for that one inning. 6 K in 6 innings
More RISPFAIL..  
arcarsenal : 7/27/2016 8:59 pm : link
Here comes the ground out to end the inning.
Come on Conforto  
spike : 7/27/2016 8:59 pm : link
just give us a RISP 2 out hit
