Not specifically

But I’m in Brooklyn and it doesn’t seem to be raining anymore, though I’m still hearing some thunder in the distance and the sky still looks like it could still open up at any time.

I live in New York, but I have lots of family out in Phoenix… out here for 2 weeks but I can’t not watch the Mets. I already had to go two days with only mlb gameday

Robert Carson

Pitching pretty well in Savannah, just got out of a bases loaded, no out jam and has five scoreless so far. Flores is working on another nice night too. 2 for 2 with a double, he’s due up in the next half inning.

Definitely

Carson’s groundball generating ways could play really, really well in St. Lucie. Enough so that he’ll start getting some attention. Then I could see him moving to Bingo next year and eventually generating mixed results in the upper levels until/unless he can make an adjustment and miss more bats. He probably has the stuff to do it, and he gets enough groundballs and has the stuff to get by in relief if not.

I do

But I have other guys I like to use in both leagues too, and I just have a hard time committing to a second baseman as an everyday Util, but Hill usually gets more of the starts there than the other guys. I have Jayson Werth in both leagues too as arguably probably the third best outfielder out of four or five in each.

i know it sucks to lose to the yanks again like this

but if the rays hold on for 3 more outs then we’ll have lost no ground

tomorrow is a winnable game.

we just saw the guy like two weeks ago, and he’s due to explode.

Before the first pitch, actually

First pitch was a wild pitch.

Ha, yeah

This kinda reminds me of the 1999 season, except back then we won most of our games. The Mets would win 5 in a row to get to within a game of the Braves, and then lose. In this case the Mets and Phillies continue to lose at a ridiculous rate.

Off topic

But I hate this shit:

That turned into a 10-1 loss that was summed up eloquently by the always-erudite Joe Maddon as “the kind of game you put in the trash compactor very quickly and move on to the next one.”

How is that eloquent? Compared to the sounds Charlie Manuel’s throat goiter makes?

had back luck across the board tonight. Umpire squeeze, bad d, bloop hits. Nothing a few good swings and misses won’t help.

He's really got to improve his secondary offerings

A better change and a more consistent slider will help immensely against lefties.
