Mets 2024 Season

[gman]

It’s hard enough besting a good team. It’s impossible beating a good team and a bad ump/replay official.

Where was that!,,,

That pitch to Stott was strike 3…

 

[dk423]

Peterson-Stott at-bat is a pretty easy example how bad this home ump is. So inconsistent

 

[sjc88]

Typical Filly fans. Booing a guy who just blasted in the forearm with. 98mph fastball. Times have changed.

 

[gman]

This ump really sucks. Alvarez telling him that.

I said that to my wife

I am not sure who is worse the ump or the Mets hitters. Alvarez staring back at the ump after the next three pitches after the bad call and misses a hittable pitch by six inches to strike out.

Wheeler is smart. He gets the call and goes back to the same spots. The Ump has guys expanding the zone. Wheeler don’t need the help.

Doesn’t feel like I’m watching a baseball game with how this ump is calling strike zone. Wtf am I watching!?

The ump sucks but Alvarez’s job is to hit the ball, not tell the ump he sucks, that is Mendoza’s job, maybe if Alvarez focused on that he might have had done his job.

I guess a bunt puts me in the land of the dinosaur. We’ll just hack away.

 

[dk423]

The ump makes the job a lot harder on the hitters and pitchers.

 

[sjc88]

So the runner is still on 1st base. Almost like a bunt could’ve helped.

 

[logen]

The 2-1 pitch to Alonso was very similar to the HR pitch Thursday, the difference? He tried to pull it today and fouled it off.

 

[sjc88]

Nah, let’s not try something different like making the defense actually field a ball. Lead off runner K, PO, K. I don’t get it.

Modern baseball, at least for teams that are married to analytics.

Getting lost in this, Phils only have two hits

Combined both teams have 14Ks. We just went to the 7th inning.

The Met strategy of Senga/Peterson has obviously worked out very well so far. Unfortunately, they have never stopped swinging at bad pitches, Iglesias just popped out on a pitch high and inside.

It's true, but when you have an ump call a totally out-of-whack game, like that called strike against Taylor, it's really hard for me to blame them.
