This is pure domination. It doesn't even look like they have a chance. 5 no hit innings and 8 strikeouts. But 70 pitches. I assume the Mets will just ride him. Normal rules don't apply to Syndergaard.
You can deactivate your Twitter account I believe. And people would spam the s*** out of his account so pretty good idea to get rid of it. Hard to believe someone in the media covering the game in some respect would be that stupid.
Against a lefty why not? Martin is struggling and now has a hand injury. Its really Upton or Pillar. Or Martin just hit 6th and you have Upton, Pillar, and Zeke all in order something I wanted to avoid in my thought process as well.
Once again our starters are good and Estrada finds a way if that happens and we do advance to the ALCS we are pretty well set up using basically our full rotation in the DS.
It should have lined up Happ and Sanchez Game 1 and 2 and go from there. Seems pretty cringy not to give one of your best starters 2 starts. And potentially your 4th starter 2 starts. I guess they could go Happ Game 5. But I would have liked to have seen Sanchez start 2 games.
Estrada appears to be the one most effected by to much rest. He will be on 5 days rest with an afternoon game in steaming hot Texas with the Jet Stream in full effect. On paper this looks like a disaster. You wanted a ground ball pitcher in this game.
Martin needs to be moved to the bottom of the lineup. Probably 7th with hand injury.
Travis
Donaldson
Encarnacion
Bautista
Tulo
Upton
Martin
Pillar
Zeke
I'm confident in all our starters. But once again this was not the correct decesion. Hopefully it works out anyway. Estrada is probably the starter I would have least liked to see start game 1 and now he's likely to pitch game 1 and 5.
