Alcantara (4.61 FIP) v deGrom (3.47 FIP)

 

Mets are -300 (you have to wager $300 to win $100).  

 

That’s a very substantial MLB favorite.  

 

 

Well then.

 

 

Marlins social media has been taking the light hearted approach lately, I kinda like it. Here's last night's game recap...

Also in their comments, someone trying to be smart with them posted "It must suck to be walked off two nights in a row" and they responded with "Well yeah did you think it would be fun?" 

 

Have we lost yet?

I did not know that Garret Cooper spelled his name with italics and Harold Ramirez with underline. Good for them.

 

 

i'll bet #cheapjeter didn't get Cooper a jersey with his name properly displayed in italics.  I'm guessing he told him to just lean sideways a bit.

These are the things you gotta know about our returning and new Marlins.

That's actually exactly what happened. Read my blog for more information.

 

 

Umpire giving deGrom a little wiggle room on the outside - hope Sandy gets that call, too.

 

 

Bah, hit his hand then his bat. Boo. Darn. Dang.

 

 

Austin Dean homered again in AAA. Bring him back, I guess.

 

 

Ugh that was an awful ball call. I guess the way Alfaro caught it but even so.

 

 

Nice swing and great hustle by Jon Berti.

 

 

Sandy Alcantara with an RBI double! Help yourself, sir!

 

 

Three scoreless for the Sandy one.

 

 

Alfaro has been taking a step back lately

Ehhh IDK. He's shown a little more patience which I like. Takes some time to adjust an approach like that.

 

 

DFA Ramirez...that bump 

 

 

goddamn, Ramirez... we bitched for your call-up, least you can do is get an rbi with 2 outs, ya fucker!!!

 

 

Shift hurts us again.

 

 

Hitters - 100... Don & fucking shift - 0

 

 

Could have turned two on that broken bat, I think. Oh well. And it immediately comes back to bite us.

 

 

just like that, the shift kills us
