    It's an epidemic to just watch the 3rd strike go by tonight...

Even if he never actually SAYS anything about his intestinal troubles.

    I'm just so confounded I can barely follow the game. It is neutralizing the agony immensely. Which is new to me.
    There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.

    I believe I read he had a .900 OPS against LHP in AAA. So trying to use him in these situations is not unfounded.... it's just failed miserably thus far.

    Kid can't take strike three on a 1-2 count with a man on 3B. He's not Votto....ain't gonna get calls, ain't gonna work his way back in the count.

    But he did. I expect Baker will have him PH in Game 162 with the division on the line.

    These types of posts are so annoying.

    Hold 'em here.

    A couple of bloops and a blast.

    That's all it really is.

    The Mets announcers would probably be annoying if they were Refs announcers and talked about other teams that way.
