'til the Wheelers come off; the Kiner's Kornerless 2014 New York Mets

i don't know if you guys are aware but michael wacha promised a little boy in a hospital this morning that he'd strike out 27 mets tonight

was it colton burpo

has anyone ever struck out the side for the first 3 innings before?

that's a lot of pitches

yerp

2014 mets: we only score on bases-loaded walks

d'ARNOUT!

nice try with the Cardsnark, KM. :)

It's already a moral victory, guaranteed a 4-game split vs StL.

I didn't get a chance to see the play at the plate in the 9th. Was it close at all, or was Matheny just butthurt?

I was listng on the rodeo, replay thought conclusive (by Mets crew)

re K'ing first nine... looks like Mickey Welch in 1884?

It's the new Met Way of running up the pitch count.

btw that team slugging (thru Tues) is .343 away, .265 at Citi

play @ the plate was def close, travis just did swipe and get the back flank of the runner as he slid by. to the umps credit, he got it right w/o replay

chris young with a ~bomb~

dice-k going for the save!

i called it

CISHEK SHIPWRECKED by the GRANDYMAN

^^

ILB quorum in Sec 516 today

EY Jr managing to get on once a game at least

http://awfulannouncing.com/2014/kevin-burkhardt-to-join-fox-full-time.html

good move for him obv, too bad his on-field replacement (can't recall his name) is terrible

Burkhardt's shit has never done anything for me

Mets pitchers are 0 for 41 at the plate this year, the longest hitless streak for any team's pitchers starting a season since at least 1974, according to STATS.

Daniel Murphy has succeeded in 27 consecutive stolen-base attempts, six shy of Kevin McReynolds' Mets record.

New York is 6-0 when Anthony Recker starts at catcher this season.

starters have given up more than three runs once in the last 13 games.

j0rdan was wondering on Sunday where a Mets star might live these days. I just read in the Times that Matt Harvey lives in the East Village so he can do East Villagey things like buy John Varvatos suits, and go to Whole Foods for cheese, and sports bars. I have lived too long.

Collins sez Lagares' return means there will be a 4-man OF rotation. Avoids having to bench a Young in favor of Grander$on.

Grandy on fiyuh

set dicek on fiyah pls

typical crushing mets/marlins game

poor travis d' is suffering from a .215 babip

otoh, he didn't actually put a ball in play in four plate appearances tonight

highlight of tonights broadcast was gary and keith not being able to tell whether a fans sent in twitter pic was a cat or a dog

identical 8-8 home & road records now; this swoon is a plot to take the stink off Citi

fuck this team, and whatever Sandy Alderson's bullpen plan was

16 of their next 19 games at home, God knows what that bodes

@jjcoop36
Fascinated by the Mets playing Wilmer Flores at SS. Over the years, have talked to 10+ scouts about Flores, none thought he could play SS.

lool wilmer just took a short hop throw directly in da nuts

well what a crisp game

why is Dice-K still around?

omg duda mvp

the professor owes him a drink

farns looked so bad tnight, let mejia close

Gary Cohen set the tone for the evening: "a classic Yankee Stadium cheap homer by Travis d'Arnaud."

Is that just 5 in a row vs the Stanks?

yep, their last game vs them in '12 was i think a sunday night game where dickey got knocked around after his sick june run of mostly shutouts
