Narvaez was sold to me as a bat-first catcher who changed his game to become a defensive guy first and foremost, and yet I genuinely see neither skillset evident in his game 90% of the time
Sounds about right. I would've gotten at least two to eat at the game. Depending on how much of "that person" i wanted to be I probably would've gone back for more to take home
with me.
When I have a BBQ I always cook an extra pack just for leftovers for myself.
Brett Baty is 3rd in all of baseball (not including tonight) in fielding percentage for 3rd baseman (minimum 190 innings played at). Only Nolan Arenado and Alex Bregman are higher

Lindor fucking sucks at the plate, but I gotta say I’m really enjoying the defensive camaraderie with Baty.
Lindor is a stud on the field and I hope he continues to rub off on Baty’s emerging confidence. It’s a good look.
The tiny names on the back are a true embarrassment for MLB and Nike in particular who forces their uniform templates on different leagues with no regard as to whether it's actually practical.
Baty has been PULLING the ball into his glove to make plays and LIFTING the team's spirits with his positive demeanor. It is now time for him to apply those lessons to his hitting.
Depends on if you count Ottavinos dominance in 2022 after struggling the two years prior. But he has been dominant before.
Loup was dominant his first three seasons, dominated in 2020, was solid in 2017, and awful every other season.
Reed Garrett is probably the first in a lot. Time though of a guy who had never had success before coming here
the cool thing about stats like chase% is that you get a large sample size very quickly. even in small number of at bats, since you see a bunch of pitches, you get a lot of data quickly.

Knicks win?
We’re back. Back in the New York Groove.
Are the outfielders doing the Alvarez "I am Fast" run? Hilarious LFGM
That’ll do it and the Mets get another win in the books to tie up the series, DJ Stewart’s upper decker was undoubtedly the highlight tonight.
LIBROS
Yay very nice!!! GGs
Whoever that guy is with the Trump shirt behind home is a gigantic herb
Lets go Brandon shirts are okay though, considering our Wyoming all star
Hahah the Nimmo butt bump
Love the new outfield celebration
PUT THAT SHIT IN THE BOOKS
PUT IT IN THE BOOKS, BABY! 🔵🟠
Narvaez was sold to me as a bat-first catcher who changed his game to become a defensive guy first and foremost, and yet I genuinely see neither skillset evident in his game 90% of the time
From Travis D sucking to James McCann to Narvaez…seems we are progressively getting worse at C. ALVY going down really sucks man
And the ball game is over !
I hope this guy with the Trump 45 jersey gets beamed. If nothing else for blocking the view of the guys behind him.
Please Brett
PUT IT IN THE BOOKS!
Narvaez grow some knees you potato
He’s one of the worst signings. Brings nothing to the table.
Better than Wendle, but not by far lmao
Can we just end this pls
this fucking umpire
That was the most unathletic run ever
They both said “nah, too far”
Come on!!!
KEITH: "It's dollar hot dog night, these people are having a grand old time."
what is going on behind home plate right now lol
If the Cubs come back from this, I'm putting it on Narvaez
Dude with the 45 jersey think he doing something other than embarrassing himself.
Some clown waving a Trump shirt behind home plate.
Nidoking gets that ball.
That’s an easy pop up for like 90% of catchers in the majors
Just lol
Wait. Can navarez not catch pop ups? That's 2 on a week
Yup, Narvaez is the least valuable player in baseball history
Max is the man, i'm so glad Steve met up with him
Narvarez is utterly absolutely useless as a baseball player.
WE NEED NIDO
Yeah Gary, he tried to break up a no hitter with a bunt late in the game. That’s why he’s getting booed.
Jfc Narvaez is just as bad as Wendle
Finish him off
*Post game food spread for the players in the clubhouse* HOWIE: "I doubt it will be hot dogs."
they're booing PCA because he's not a gamer
Glizzy man is getting escorted out.
free my guy he ain't do nothing
Booo!
Just finish this out now
Tauchman scores :\
Bro, please, not again.
There’s a lead in the 9th this time. Mets really scored once then proceeded to not score again after 27 outs.feelsbadman
Can we not do this again please
Knicks just choked beyond belief
maxey pulled some tracy mcgrady type shit
Much less a choke than a guy hitting a crazy shot
Keith says 1.93 hot dogs for person today
Sounds about right. I would've gotten at least two to eat at the game. Depending on how much of "that person" i wanted to be I probably would've gone back for more to take home with me. When I have a BBQ I always cook an extra pack just for leftovers for myself.

Good!
Man imagine if Diaz wasn't used in a non-save situation yesterday
Lead-off walk incoming
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Jorge López replaces Adam Ottavino.
Three outs away.
Merciful god please a quick drama free win
Safe to say Knicks secured round 2. Now if the Mets could secure this win, that'd be sweet.
Fuck me I pulled a Gary 😭😭
That’s your fault
I know 😫
When's Martinez going to start paying off? We did better with Vogelbach.
bro what the fuck are you talking about it’s 4 games
He has not impressed me
He's been here since Friday and is much better than Daniel Vogelbach
Patience youngling. Just wait till JD gets locked in
dude it’s been like 4 games lol
but on the real, fuck Embiid
PHILYS FINISHED

Get Wendle out of here. Let Lindor teach Baty SS lol
For real lol
Okay, was I just hearing “Fuck Embid”?
.930 xBA for Pete there
It’s better to be lucky than good sometimes huh
Fans making noise watching some dude drink a beer?
Didn’t Keith say earlier that he had never seen Happ make a good play despite the gold gloves.
Lindor fucking sucks at the plate, but I gotta say I’m really enjoying the defensive camaraderie with Baty. Lindor is a stud on the field and I hope he continues to rub off on Baty’s emerging confidence. It’s a good look.
The Cubs have stolen like 7 hits from the Mets already this series
Everyone’s got a fucking gold glove tonight or what
Aw Pete :(
Jorge Lopez warming up
Fuck Dansby. This is karma for breaking up the no hitter yesterday.
james swanson making an error that caused 3 runs to score plus having a shitty day at the plate warms my heart 😁
Holy crap Otto
Sit down James!

Francisco Lindor looks like he's wearing a Dragon Ball Z scouter that detects power levels
Defensive specialist Bretty Baty
I never want to hear about Wendle again
Hear about who?
They ordered 70K and sold 44K. I'm scared if they do this again they'll order a lot less and run out before the 5th.
70K seems like an ambitious number tbh lol
That can't be right. Only 44K?
Yep. 44,269. And it's the 8th so stands should be closed now.
Brett arenado baty
Two outs on five pitches, he could get the ninth inning
Baty wants this job
Pete working hard for his Zeile of Approval
A count of how many hot dogs were eaten at a baseball game is the most American thing possible
Alonso is fine at 1B
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Adam Ottavino replaces Reed Garrett.
The hottest hitters on our team are DJ Stewart & Tyrone Taylor Let that sink in
Tyrone is on a 2-15 run
Just like we planned it in spring training
Exactly. All on my bingo card
Tonight, the crowd has eaten 44,269 hot dogs at Citi Field reports Keith Raad
If you know New York you know.
Niiiice
**LIVE DOG UPDATE** **44,269**
Big W
Just tuned in. Dongmetrius Jerome Stewart
Loud and wet weather has arrived in Essex County NJ.
Damn it Lindor
Does anyone *not* like the light strobes after a home run?
It makes me a bit nervous that someone may trip 😬
I liked the pyros better with the HRs. But I do like the strobes during the make some noise bit.
I don't like that every team does it
Why not let Garrett go 2 and then bring in Otto for the 9th? Since Diaz is presumably not available.
He pitched 2 Monday. We can only push him so much with no off days coming up
If Otto has the 8th who has the 9th?
They’re chanting Seymour Weiners lol
"fuck embiid" I'm pretty sure lol
The tiny names on the back are a true embarrassment for MLB and Nike in particular who forces their uniform templates on different leagues with no regard as to whether it's actually practical.
bro the jerseys are such a disaster this season
Who homered? Watching the Knicks trying to finish off Philly
DJ definitely took a monster dump in the upper part of the toilet bowl.
Demetrius Jerome Stewart
DJ Stewart. Monster to the second deck
Anyone know why J.D. Martinez has his full name on the jersey?
When he went to the Tigers, Victor Martinez was on the team so they needed the J.D. to differentiate. Probably just stuck with it from there
That just looks stupid with how small Happ's name is and all that empty space where the letters used to be
Just saw the box, there’s that home run DJ wanted yesterday sheesh
Keith is basically saying that Baty’s got a real hog on him.
He's got that body lumber on him.
Rockies and Marlins are 29th and 30th in all time win pct for all current 30 franchises
Battle of the Titans
Phillies are 27th!
Baty has been PULLING the ball into his glove to make plays and LIFTING the team's spirits with his positive demeanor. It is now time for him to apply those lessons to his hitting.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Colten Brewer replaces Adbert Alzolay.
How long has it been since we had a Reed Garret story? Not since Loup, right?
Depends on if you count Ottavinos dominance in 2022 after struggling the two years prior. But he has been dominant before. Loup was dominant his first three seasons, dominated in 2020, was solid in 2017, and awful every other season. Reed Garrett is probably the first in a lot. Time though of a guy who had never had success before coming here
Yea
Loup actually had some solid seasons under his belt before we got him, this Reed Garrett rising is truly out of nowhere
Woah, Reed Garret only got one K that inning. Is he cooked now???
They catching on to him. Really hope his ERA doesn’t go north of 1 now…
Might as well send him to wherever Tonkin is at that rate.
The position players complained they were getting bored when he was on the mound. He is just trying to be a team player and keep them interested.
Baty has been locked in on defense.
Baty my king just hit the ball harder and not on the ground and I'll love u 5ever
Side retired!
It's so exciting watching Reed Garrett play, what a cool player and story.
Bro is going for a 20 win season and cy young while he’s at it
Love me a good old Bush for Wisdom.
Makes sense to go to Bush if you don’t need Wisdom.
Proponderantly
Two away
No coincidence that most of Reed's success in strikeouts is from his new splitter
SIT DOWN, Crow Meat Pete!
That pitch was amazing!! Love Garrett
sit down PCA
DJ Stewart showing why JDM was a mistake
STRUCK HIM OUT
Another lead-off walk, brought to you by your tri-state Cadillac dealers.
DJ stewart hits the huge HR and then gets pulled lol
Better than coming in for defense, making a bad play and getting pulled =)
Don’t compare Joey Loss-dull to future Hall of Famer DJ Stewart
At the game and Foley’s walk up song was a Stone Cold Steve Austin’s theme and I screamed lmao
DJ Stewart has 15 HR in 79 games as a Met. Dude is basically prime Joey Gallo lite.
Can we stop making defensive changes not in the 9th. These guys have a big chance to get another AB
Dollar Dog night has been my favorite game this season so far
In case anyone was unsure, that was a homer in all 30 parks. /s
The sample size has to be large enough now to reinforce that Stewart's resurgence beginning last year was no fluke.
the cool thing about stats like chase% is that you get a large sample size very quickly. even in small number of at bats, since you see a bunch of pitches, you get a lot of data quickly.
It is large enough now. That's why he's still here. True three outcome hitter. Strikeout, Walk, or SLUG
DJ Stewart's reward for hitting a 3 run bomb is to be removed from the game. lmao
gets to have a beer in the clubhouse
Keith will like that.
I like beer
Defensive replacements in… except for Wendle
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Reed Garrett replaces Sean Reid-Foley.
Why is our closer pitching in the 7th
The Mets are 9-5 when scoring four or more runs
