SLACKISH REACTION: Spent the day at Wrigley Field and will blog about that at some point. Got in around 9 (Central Time) and the Mets game was over which proves….
Baseball Games should start at 8 so us Central Time people have something to do!!!! (I am such a hypocrite). These early MLB start times are crazy lol.
Anyway Jake lost, Todd Frazier grinded out an 0 for 4 and the Mets lost in under three hours which would have made me happy.
Oh and….HAPPY HARVEY DAY BITCHES
My young apprentice Niko of @nikometsplus fame is gonna cover Harvey Day for me because I got stuff to do and don’t have wifi in my Airbnb so I can’t stream three hours of MH to make you guys laugh. Thank you Niko. Follow Niko.
Let’s see what else I have for you…
Oh yeah Matz is on the DL and totally won’t wind up needing Tommy John. Not at all. It’s just a flexor pronator strain.
Jacob deGrom (8.0 IP, 6 H, 2 R/2 ER, 1 BB, 9 K): Lost his fifth-straight decision, the longest losing streak of his career…During the streak, has posted a 2.47 ERA (14 earned runs/51.0 innings) in seven starts…Was his 19th-straight start allowing three or fewer runs…In those 19 games, deGrom is 3-7 with a 1.68 ERA (24 earned runs/128.2 innings)…The Mets are 5-14 in those 19 starts.
• Pitched a season-high-tying 8.0 innings for the sixth time this season…No other pitcher in the majors has more than four outings of at least 8.0 innings.
And I guess that’s it. I will play catch up later. LGM.
Oh wait – I forgot the rant – WHY THE FUCK ARE THE METS PLAYING JOEY BATS AT 1B? Dom is in exile. Hell bring up Alonso. What are the Mets even doing man? WTF WTF WTF WTF WTF.
OK have fun. LGM.
