    Is it me or does it seem like the only pitch Mc can get over is the breaking ball? The fastballs are all over the place.

    The other Mc pitched as good as McGnificent, with a good centerfielder this game would be 1 to 0 in favor of the Astros.

    Yeah never like his demeanor either. Never really been high on Gomez. He had a couple of decent years but I never felt he was anything special. He has gold glove but he's not that good anymore defensively.

    Maybe he was never that good, many gold gloves are won because you can hit.
    I remember i think Palmeiro winning a gold glove and that year he palyed DH almost exclusively. After that, i don't care about Gold Gloves.

    why does that run matter? your advanced analytics showed that if mccullers held them to 2 runs or under, we won the game.

    Well, i thought our hitters were better, but AGAIN we can't hit average pitchers.
    Sorry, i was wrong, i thought our hitters just were better, I WAS WRONG.

    I just feel the first pitcher that throws a mistake is the team that loses this one

    But maybe i am right about wanting the identity of this team to be GREAT defensively. If we had Marisnick in cf, this game would be 1 to 0

    Good point. I recall players as well who had good offensive years and ended up with gold gloves that didn't appear to be deserved.

    Why the %^&* Marisnick is playing LF and not CF???? That is why i don't like Hinch, he can win the manager of the year, but i don't like his move.

    Gomez should play LF and Marisnick CF, PERIOD.

    He was my #1 choice ! Imagine how the Mets feel after eventually not getting Gomez and getting Cespedes

    Can i express myself? Instead of been a smart ass, why don't you contribute with your opinion???? You think Marisnick should play LF or CF when he is playing??? Do you think Gomez is better defensively than Marisnick???
    Why don't you give us your opinions? Or you just don't know enough and can't? And you need to be smart ass for lack of knowledge?
