In fairness, Duran has been aggressive as hell all season, and that's really the first time I recall him getting burned by it. For all the thrills he's provided, I'll take that tradeoff.
July 23 Mets @Fenway
- Thread starter pk1627
- Start date
86 Mets this, 86 Mets that. Why does that team get so much hype? Never hear anything about the 87 Twins, 90 Reds, 02 Angels, 05 White Sox, etc.
When he opens the game, he's on a pitch count. Add to that he pitched an inning yesterday, it was time.
If Yu Chang wants to keep hitting nukes and fielding like that I want him starting every game (i want this anyway for the time being)
If anything, that Mets team got insanely lucky not to lose in six games and then underachieved the rest of the decade.
I can’t watch many games because I’m not home till like the 7th inning, and that’s legitimately the first time I’ve seen Kike reach base in a month
He advanced on a fielder's choice, then aggressively took off for third and forced an errant throw. He then tried to score, and Canha made a perfect throw on the run to barely get him at the plate with a slick tag by Baty.

That seemed like a very charitable interpretation of Hernandez's hit. If the 2B had been able to handle it, isn't he out?
If the fielder dives they hardly ever count it as an error, and all analysts act like it’s a tough play even if it’s not
If I'm a no-hit utility man trying to stay in the majors, I'm making myself an outstanding bunter.
Absolutely. If he can field, bunt, and hit an occasional bomb, he could have a solid career.
Johnny liked it in New York better because New Yorkers don’t pay attention like Red Sox fans do
So Raffy clearly understands English, but must not feel comfortable speaking it. But his personality really shines through regardless.
Yeah, if I recall correctly he can understand it and speak decently, but doesn't want to risk saying the wrong thing accidentally. Way more than I can say for whatever my closest second language would be, props to him.
So I missed Roger when I was watching Ravech and now I missed Devers when I was listening to Damon.
ESPN sucks
Time things so we can see both
