NY Mets -- July 2022

Mets Monday Lineup @ Atlanta (Fried)

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Marte and McNeil out for this series. Time for others to step up in their absence.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

The bottom 3rd of our lineup is a total blackhole.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

The bottom 3rd of our lineup is a total blackhole.

Hopefully not for too much longer.

[Nasty_Magician]

If McCann is healthy I have no problem with Alvarez DHing with a few spots at catcher.

DH is a disaster. JD Davis is giving us absolutely nothing.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Also need to get that team RISP avg up. Was great early in the year but we've been stranding guys left and right the past few weeks. Fried did not have his stuff tonight and we haven't made him pay.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Ugh, Max gives up a solo shot in the 7th, 2-1 Mets. And now gives up a double. Time to yank him.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Also likely no Diaz tonight, I believe he's pitched in 3 of 4 games.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

We go to Diaz in the 9th and he gets the job done. We take game 1. Good stuff.

Mets take the series opener 4-1.....NL East lead is back up at 2.5
Max was awesome....Ottavino stepped up....Diaz was lights out.

Also Pete related, I believe David Wright has the record for most RBIs before the All Star Break (76 in 06). Pete currently sits at 72.

Mets Wednesday Rubber Game Lineup @ Atlanta

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Take 2 out of 3 with 2 of our better players out, gotta love it.

 

[Cyder]

Take 2 out of 3 with 2 of our better players out, gotta love it.

Great job by your boys. From the tone on sports radio going into the series you'd think the Mets didn't have a chance of taking 2 of 3.
