Hey take a close look at this!
The Mets will start someone named Noah Syndergaard tonight. Apparently he is one of the….wait for it….
…he’s one of the FIVE ACES! Sure he doesn’t pitch much, cuckolds mascots, and has won five times since the start of the 2017 but let’s pretend he’s one of baseball’s elite pitchers, shall we? Anyway, it will be nice to see him instead of Conlon/Vargas/Gagnon day – although Gagnon has as many RBI as Dom Smith.
By the way it was pointed out to me that Dom’s ONE RBI is Dom knocking himself in. Holy shit.
Anyway. speaking of….wait for it….
…the five Aces, our favorite Ace pitches tonight against the Cardinals. That’s right bitches, IT’S HARVEY DAY!
The Dark Knight Returns Yet Again! And it will allow us to have a fun night seeing who pitches better. Now you know I love chaos and piling on the Mets, so how about Thor gives up 8 in a 9-8 Mets run, and Rip Tide hands in his new-normal 6 inning 3 runs.
SLACKISH REACTION: Another excellent fast game as Mickeyball got it done in under three hours, so I am happy. Apparently the Nationals scored more runs than the Mets did, but Mickey says not to worry about the record, so I won’t if he won’t. As long as it’s under three hours I am happy. And that Net Negative got on base three times Gare.
Speaking of Gare, it speaks volumes at me that not one person came at me for saying Keith Hernandez is handing in lazy work.
I have moved Gelbs ahead of Keith on the Valuable list in that booth. Once again last night Gelbs discussed something he had learned by talking to one of the players. I have been killing Gelbs on here all year, but this is his thing, and it got me thinking they should swap his role with Keith’s. I shall blog at length about this later. Well, “me length” I am not Greg Prince. Long might be three paragraphs.
You know you want Adam Rubin back, here’s how to make that happen.
