6. Flores, SS

Mets are going for the sweep and the Giants are obviously trying to avoid the sweep and get back to .500
>>67259549
Bum hitting 9th
The fuck?
>>67259847
I'm pretty sure it's because Joe Panik, who usually bats second is hurt. Bochy likes to have Pagan and Span hit back to back in the lineup so he moved Pagan from the to the second spot
>Campbell starting
For what purpose
Nice play le crying man
>Get a man on base
>hit into a double play on the next pitch
Today will be fun
Is anyone using hola in Firefox with mlb tv? Having problems with the player loading
>Both these unis
We 80s now
>Finally start a pitcher that isn't JUST-tier
>Will probably get shut out because it's Thor
>>67260252
Wish the Mets didn't wear these throwbacks so loosely. Don't look quite as good as the 86 team
>that red blue stripe
Yuck.
Thor TJS when?
Stop trying to kill yourself Ces
Bumgarner's K/9 rate is ridiculously high this year. Can he sustain it?
>Bum will never win a CY Young
>>67260408
Adjust your TV, that's orange Familia
>>67260408
>red
Might wanna get them eyes checked buddy
>>67260462
Yeah you right, I got a closer look after I posted it
Still think it ruins the look
>>67260456
WS MVP is a bigger accomplishment desu
You just KNOW.
>>67260530
B-but Daddy Greinke doesn't think so
>Thor's slider is just as fast as Randy Johnson's
Why doesn't Bartolo Colon, the largest of the Mets starters, simply eat the other four?
>>67260622
Like Cell, just absorb their power
>>67260564
Lol I hadn't thought about that faggot since October. Top kek, friend.
>>67260622
For what purpose?
He missed the base, he's out.
Safe desu
How many challenges do you get?
>Umped already
Why are the replay guys such shit?
>challenging with 2 outs
Gints pls go
>>67260678
>challenging that
>>67260722
He came up short
>>67260622
It's easier to let the other four bring him tribute in the form of groupies and losing pitchers.
>>67260713
Only the one if you're unsuccessful. You get a second if your first is successful though.
>>67260766
>>67260790
Well RIP
>>67260865
I don't get it.
She sure does know how to tickle my pickle
>>67260897

>>67260909
why is she so perfect bros?
>>67260897
>Sit back and see if he figures it out
>>67260909
Who is this?
>>67260930
>>67260940
I still don't get it.
>>67260934
she married some Jewberg who works at Hot 97.
>>67260989
She's not even average. Why does everyone think she's a goddess?
Thor really needs to be quicker to the plate
>>67260969
His father is a real estate mogul. Eric used to run some of his father's buildings. This profession is called being a "super", it was the shortened to soup. And that is why Eric Camp bell is called soup.
>>67260969
The Mets first baseman LITERALLY created and owns Campbell's Soup. He just plays baseball on the weekends
That was a fair ball to be honest...
>>67261219
i agree
t. giants fun
>>67261219
that ump was the same one fucking the mets from behind home plate yesterday.
Crusty jew yankee fan I imagine
>morning beisbol
Comfy as heck.
dae hate the doyers
God damn Spinal Stenosis couldn't score
Aw shit
Hasn't Neil Walker been average his entire career? Is he pulling a cheeky Dee Gordon?
>Final score of 1-0
>Only run is a solo dinger by one of the SP's
Best outcome?
>>67261456
I did a double take when I saw '9 home runs' too
>Cain and Peavy will actually contribute
Why is Bochy so fucking delusional?
>>67261456
minus the roids
> those 2 girls behind the plate?????
Why doesn't Bochy start Heston instead of Peavy or Cain?
>>67261518
To be fair to Cain he's been doing okay, especially considering he's our 5 now.
Peavy is absolute trash though.
>>67261541
Because he's a fucking idiot
I don't know man, I really wish he would though
So are most older Mets fans ex-Dodger fans or ex-Giants fans?
>>67261560
>Cain he's been doing okay
He has an ERA of 7, senpai. Peavy and Cain are probably the worst #4 and #5 in all of baseball. They need to call up Heston. Heston won't be great, but he's at least not a guaranteed out loss like those 2.
>>67261541
Bochy is ridiculously kind to his vets
It's a real weakness
>>67261618
My dad was a Dodgers fan until they left
>>67261630
>guaranteed loss
We lost by 1 run yesterday behind cain, the blow out was all Peavy and Broadway giving us no chance. But yes they're both trash anyway.
Getting on first base is basically a double against Syndergarrd. Duffy and Crawford aren't fast at all and they stole with no problem
w-we offense now?
welp
gg
>>67261634
He's still a top 3 manager, but leaving Cain in the game after he gave up that dinger was a horrendous move that may have cost them the game
BASED HUNTER PENCE
>>67261618
Eh it's a mix of both. My uncle was actually a Yankee fan before 62'
BASED PENCE
Why is he so perfect?
CAVEMAN
ATTA BOY PENCE!
How has Samardjiza and Cueto been working out for you guys?
Just hand him the Gold Glove already
How did you guys feel about Syndergaard's statement pitch in the WS btw?
I thought it was cool, considering how chippy salty asshole the royals are.
>>67261853
cueto just pitched a CGSO and has been decent
samard a shit
>>67261853
Cueto's been outstanding. Salmonella has been pretty damn good. Unfortunately, the last 2 starters are literal human feces-tier
>>67261853
Bretty good so far man, Cueto especially
>>67261881
>3.86 ERA
>good

Based Cueto
>>67261939
He had one really rough start and still won anyway due to offense, senpai. Hell, his bat has had a lot of value too.
>>67261939
>>67261948
>>67261984
We desperately need a catcher that doesn't die every other game
>>67262043
do YOU want to be the one to tell Syndergaard he has to stop throwing 100mph?
At least the NL West is a gigantic shitshow
>90 mph changeup
It's basically an average fastball
>>67262148
His slider was hitting 95 at the start of the season. I don't know how hitters adjust to that.
>>67262246
>If the slider hangs, it's still an excellent challenge fastball
Just bought tickets for Tuesdays game desu
Dammit, fuck off Bumgarner
>struckout on foultip
Why isn't this just fouled out?
>>67262148
>>67262246
>>67262294
How long til Thor blows his elbow out?
based duffy
>>67262480
because if it's just a foul TIP and the catcher can still catch it, the batter may as well have missed the ball
those unis are almost dbacks bad
that was the worst pitch I've ever seen posey swing at
>>67262693
Isn't that San Francisco's mayor?
>>67262759
Posey's been slumping hard this year
>>67262759
yea hes been pretty bad...
belt the new greek god of walks is up boys
Why hasn't Duffy stolen second yet?
>>67262783
welp as i say that duff steal second and unintentional intentional walk coming
>Duffy has stolen 14 bases and never been caught

id still eat that a ballpark dog is a ballpark dog is a ballpark dog
it makes me smile when my faggy friends who jumped on the blue jays wagon last year complain about dickey, not even knowing they gave away one of the best young pitchers in syndergaard to get him
gosh such a comfy game. and that ball park looks comfy too. i dont even care if we kept swept. its been a confy series bois
I gotta say Metsbros, I'm liking these Mets broadcasters, they're pretty good and they give the Giants props when they do good
>>67262968
Nah, they know Synd is a ticking TJS bomb
>>67262935

Literal perfection

>>67263061
>>67262996
Doesn't one of the Mets broadcasters also do the SD Chargers?
>>67262996
Yeah I don't get why some people think GKR are homers. They're pretty impartial for the most part. I listen to the Giants booth during the first game and they were pretty good too.
WEW LAD
That was close
>bottom of the 6th
>bum already at 102 pitches
fuck
soup 3 run blast pls
Wait what channel is the Warriors game on?
Cabrera slam incoming
>>67263369
bum's had good starts but we really haven't seen him dominate yet
I still can't help but look at the radar gun with him sitting at 90. hopefully it's just a matter of warming up as the season goes on, but last april he was at 93 and would hit 95 on occasion
>>67263468
more like a single dumped into shallow right
YESSSSS
umpball
AHH FAAACCCK
wow, what an absolute shit call.
Christ that was so inside it almost hit him. Fuck this blue
BumGODner
That was generous.
Robo umps when?
UMP is cold and wet and wants to go home
>>67263480
His velocity has always gotten higher as the season went on, senpai.
wait a minute i went to FSU and buster posey was the fucking GOAT
how did he end up in such a good team?
doesn't baseball have drafting order so Posey would surely get on a shitty team? what happened?
Giants fan here
That was a fucking terrible call on that pitch
>>67263410
streamandmeDOTme
>Keeping Bumgarner in
>>67263598
Giants were shitty though when they drafted him
>>67263599
yeah im listening on radio and they even said it was inside.
What the fuck was that strike call?
>bum hitting
what the fuck
no way he's gonna pitch the seventh
haha does bochy have that little faith in the bench?
>>67263599
did they show the 'ol "looking directly down at the plate from above" view on the Giants broadcast?
>>67263598
Giants were really fucking bad in the post-Bonds era. He was the 6th overall pick, but was easily the best prospect. Only reason he wasn't #1 pick was because everyone knew he was going to want a huge signing bonus. Giants had the money to pick him up over the first five teams
>>67263659
For some reason the Giants are carrying 13 pitchers, so there's very little bench depth
Whats the most pitches Bum pitched in a game?
>>67263729
I sorta remember those years, when Zito was supposed to be the star of the team and Timmy was really the only bright spot on the team.
>>67263778
probably that complete game against the royals in 2014
>>67263801
That was 117 (I watched that series religiously). Pretty sure he's hit 120s before.
>>67263778
Cain was pretty good too, but yeah. No bats. No bullpen. Only 2 good starters.
>>67263858
pretty sure everyone did m8
>mets in charge of throwing out runners
>Mest in charge of holding runners
>>67263923
>>67263931
T-they got Belt yesterday...
>>67263697
Probably, I'm watching a Mets stream online though because I couldn't find a Giants one, I don't live in Norther California anymore so I don't get Giants games on t.v.
But I saw that view and the pitch was probably 4 inches inside, it was ridiculous
>>67263858
his career high is 124
>>67263879
Well I mean I never did for 2010 or 2012 just 2014, (this was series that cured 2002 for me - the parallels so similar but thank Bum it was a different result; Wildcard Teams, 7 Game series, 3-2 lead heading into the road).
>Pagan hurt again
pagan whyy
that looks like a hammy
>>67263878
>tfw Pedro Feliz was our biggest offensive threat
Those were dark, dark days lad
WHY DIDNT YOU JUST STAY AT FIRST
>>67263978
yeah m8
i feel you
this eries felt better than 10 & 12
>>67263989
So...Williamson or Parker?
>>67263967
Yeah in 2011 (couldn't stand it, just baseball referenced it)
>Panik and Pagan are ded again
I thought this was an even year? What's happening?
>Bumgarner out
Time for a comeback lads
>>67264042
At least with Panik its not his back,
>Hamstring
How long do these take to heal?
>>67264042
P-Panik's gonna be just fine. Th-They're probably just being extra cautious...
>>67264016
bum in the ws 2014 was great but 2012 will always be my favorite because of the comebacks in the nlds/cs and this article where all of sb nation predicted the tigers to win and only grant brisbee predicts the giants, and he even calls the sweep
http://www.sbnation.com/2012/10/24/3549608/baseball-nation-predicts-the-world-series
>Law
fuck that's coming back
welp, its over
Why can't dickhead fans just learn to not reach for fair balls
Fan interference desu
>>67264111
If you're talking about whole postseason run then yeah 2012 is better.
>Hunter speeches
>Buster slam game 5 NLDS
>Zito NLCS game
>the rain at the end of the NLCS

>this fucking bullpen
>>67264111
yeah for sure the the nlds/cs were way better in 2012. that was an epic ride. i was in game 1 of that WS and it was pretty based.
but the world series of 2014 had me in heart attack mode the whole time.
Alright fellas, time to claw our way back

>>67264266
I remember there was a video of Caberra challenging Romo in game 1 asking for his best slider. Great stuff.
>>67264352

>>67264448
>questioning a future HOF manager
eight relievers and not one of them am I relieved when I see them come out
how are they all so bad
They wanna complain about MLB games taking too long or being too boring but they don't wanna change the fact that every pitching change requires a two minute commercial break.
My man just been throwing in the pen. Why he needs another two minutes to throw from the mound before the game comes back on, knawmsayin?
