They were 30-13 i believe when doc got there. one of the most overrated coaches in history in my opinion. The Lillard Move I was lukewarm on because you had to give up holiday, and he wound up in boston. Lets face it Holiday is not as good as Lillard, but the bucks went from a decent defensive team, to one that wasn't that good, losing holiday, and replacing with lillard. As for the Brewers, I was hoping the cubs would maul them, want the brewers to fade, because I think the cubs are gonna stay over 90. Nice to see houser going to the bullpen, I mean I would prefer a DFA, but we can't get everything we want.
Bucks fan first, but they've won it all very recently, so I'm happy.
Can't say I like the move to bring doc Rivers in to coach. Nor did the Lillard move make much sense. The team has its superstar in Giannis. Everyone else knew their roles. That's how you win.
Love getting that first win at Wrigley. 3-1 is a Brewer's score I'm used to. The new call up, Tyler Black, has been a spark this week, but we still need an innings eater or 2.
Knicks have a real history of choking after the Clyde and Earl the Pearl days.
He doesn't remember those days. Go back to 1970 when Willis Reed, Clyde and Dollar Bill won it all with Willis getting a shot of Cortisone for every game.
And on another note I was in Dick's yesterday and looked at sliding gloves.
Nothing like a 2 inch advantage to touch the base before the tag is applied.
Blocking the plate was a judgement call and he appeared to be in the act of receiving the throw and his foot was on the back of the plate still giving the runner a path to the plate. So the only question left was did his hand come back down on the plate before the tag. The umps said no.
Knicks win so both them and the Rangers move on. Life is good.
He has been very good this season. This is 2022 Marte which was an excellent player. This was a great win by the mets (Every time they look like they are gonna crack, they seem to come up big with a win so far). Thankfully the mets won, no thanks to houser who consistently stinks (As one know I'm not a fan). Sounds like the mets are bringing up Christian Scott on Saturday, the mets #1 pitching prospect (Looking foward to that). And to be fair Butto has looked pretty good so far, as one knows I have been high on his from what I seen in 2023, and even better what we have seen so far in 2024, he knows how to pitch. my scenario for them to have a shot to make it as a third wc, is playing about .500 against the rest of the league, and dominating against colorado, miami, and CWS, that is 22 games, a 16-6 record there gets you to 86 wins, maybe a few games over .500 against everyone else, and maybe you find your way to 88-89. This is the way for them to have a shot. The mets have not played 1 game against those 3 teams yet either.
As for the knicks we will see. Can't say I'm overly confident or overly pessimistic, I kind of feel coin toss. I think Emblid trying to bounce back from all those minutes with only 1 day of full rest might be tough. Plus I don't think Maxey can be as good as he was game 5. Having said that role players generally play better at home than the road, and the knicks we have see how they bounce back (Having said that this is tough team, so I don't think that will be a problem). Now can they get enough scoring from others not named Brunson would help. Divenceo has been a disaster in this series would be nice for him to show up, because outside of game 2, he has been not very good and i'm being nice, he is a big reason why the knicks have terrible 1rst quarters in this series.
Having said all this are u a Knick fan or a Buck fan?
Great pick and tag by Narvaez on the first one...
Marte should pitch! 2 missile strikes at the plate in the same game. Wow. Nice scrappy comeback today. Mets needed this one. Knicks? I'm not confident there. Looking for a redux of John Stark's 2-18 game 7 performance! Knicks have a real history of choking after the Clyde and Earl the Pearl days.
Houser strikes again, another 4 runs in 5 innings. he stinks. I'm glad the man from milwaukee has confidence in him, as he apparently said before the game. With being nice I strongly disagree with him, I cleaned up what I really want to say. This guy is walking a insane number of batters, and he strikes out very few. Can they please DFA him. Enough is enough in my opinion..
Joey wendle with another mistake. Why this guy is on the team is baffling to me. He stinks. What part of this does this gm and manager not understand. he can't play. And he plays waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much. he shouldn't even be on the roster.
And houser is allready in trouble, what else is new, although to be fair although a earned run, it really shouldn't of been a run thanks to the terrible wendle. These are two of my favorite players ever to wear a mets uniform, especially wendle. Obviously foaming with sarcasm. LOL.
Would it have been a nice catch--of course...but the overwhelming majority of ML CFers make that catch---
Martinez AB starts around 2:30 here
https://www.facebook.com/WatchMarquee/videos/recap-cubs-hang-on-to-win-with-crazy-last-play/1497044847580255/
Don't think it was a gift double (Could of the catch been made sure), it would of been an excellent play if pete crow armstrong came up with it though. A gift is when you mess up the routine play, not a somewhat difficult play in my opinion.
Alonso was only in a position to score due to a gift Martinez double after Cubs CF Crow-Armstrong dropped a slightly more than routine fly ball to the gap with 1 out...
He blocked the plate before the ball was even thrown. By rule that should not be allowed in my opinion. Now I can't stand the rule. But rules are rule he should of been safe in my opinion. Furthermore his hand did hit the plate after it bounced simultaneously with the tag, ties goes to the runner. Now with replay, your not gonna get that I understand, but if you watch the video he scored anyways if you didn't have to overcome the conclusive evidence to overturn, and just asked the question did he score or not, the answer would of been yes. Sadly that was a really devastating loss, it paled in comparison to the disaster known as the Knicks the day before, one of the most painful losses ever I experianced as a sports fan, did that mets game have to be the next night. Okay please mets/knicks don't lose in brutal fashion today, these ones are tough to take in my opinion.

His hand bounces while being tagged out.
Cabrera saves the day for the Yankees. Move him up in the batting order already.

Another quality start by Crawford (era 1.60). I’m amazed that I’m starting to like these Red Sox. But they’ve sucked me in before so I’ll give it another month.
Uribe is a highly charged cat. You can see it on the mound in big moments. He's also super young, with little capacity to manage tight moments. Worse than all of that, his right cross is horrible!
Perfect plunk. Caught him right on the thigh.
I think the writer was FOS as well. He's obviously trying to bat down the throw with his oven mitt. The video explains the rule regarding sliding and interference. That sliding glove oversized for his hand and if he wants to use one it should be no longer than his fingers and not look like a seal's flipper. Like I said it was a bush move by him.
Runners left in scoring position, 2 out Judge the last 2 games. Time to get him out of the 3 hole. and hopefully Verdugo's wife had the baby.
I have to say the rule 5 pitcher we got from your beloved Mets is quite impressive so far. Slaten has pitched 17.1 innings with an ERA of 0.58 allowing 1 run and only 2 walks while hitting high 90's on his fastball. Looks like a keeper. Also we should be getting Bello and Pivetta back from IL in about a week. Whitlock maybe in a few weeks.
He still has about $18M comin'...
Good thing that Aaron Hicks is still being paid by the Yankees.
Another shutout by the best pitching staff in baseball so far. This might not be a lost season after all.
Please. Just another small market team shaded by a MLB billboard player. You get used to this when you're a fan of any team outside of NY, LA, or sometimes Chicago.
After the game, however, crew chief Andy Fletcher owned up to it being the incorrect call.
"On the field, we got together and did the best that we could to come up with the correct answer. After looking at it off the field in replay, it appears that the call was missed," Fletcher told a pool reporter. "It should’ve been called interference because it wasn’t a natural part of his slide.
Hey, at least the umps conceded that they blew the call, which doesn't happen that often in baseball. IMO, for some hack reporter to try and make the play legitimate in the context of baseball tradition is just another sign that too many pRicks are paid to write about baseball in NY.
Great to see the O's back on top in the AL East. Without Soto, this Yankees team is just a continuation of the 2023 version.
Soto has been on base about 63 times in 31 games---too bad there is nobody hitting behind him...
After scoring 30 runs in two games I had this feeling that the Yankees offense would go quiet against the Orioles.
Lack of offense is squandering too many quality pitching performances.
It was a bush move by Judge considering he slid feet first and used his sliding glove to block the throw.
Brewers manager misses the point in calling out Aaron Judge's controversial slide

The second hand is not his friend---Wells would be hittin' closer to .500 than .100 if he could catch a break...
Like the Brewers, your team is regressing to the norm. They weren't as bad as their first week suggest, nor as good as their 2nd and 3rd weeks.
You have a .500 team, give or take a few games. The hitting has been generally terrible from the guys you count on most, but that should improve too.
Wendle and Houser et al are role players. They're not going to make or break the season.
As good as the win was yesterday, today was the complete opposite. And diaz doesn't look as dominant as he did before the injury I would say that FB has lost 2-3 mph in my opinion. Do us all a favor please don't send down vientos, get rid of joey wendle when marte coms back. of course that won't happen. Houser shouldn't be starting thrusday with all the options, but for some reason they need to see him get destroyed again, I have no clue why he is so uncompetitive it hurts to see. Yet they seem content to see him again for some reason that is unexplained to me. All is just my opinion of course.
With 3 hits tonight, the Mets have plenty of ineptitude to go around.
Smart move for Giancarlo Stanton to choose baseball over football, could not imagine his time in a 40 yard dash.
When marte comes back from the bereavement list, guess what happens to vientos back down to triple A for a guy who can't field and can't hit. Yet they keep claiming he is a defensive replacement. I don't know he seems like a terrible defensive player to me. And his offense isn't good either.
Unfortunetley Joey wendle who is a terrible baseball player rather than throwing home, tries for A dp which he can't get and the game is tied. When will the mets get it through there thick skulls this guy should never be in the game.
Severino looking like CY material through 7 tonight. Definitely a guy who knows he needs a big year if he's going to get paid big $$ as a FA in 2025. Could be the bargain of the 2024 pitching acquisitions if this continues.
and leading the world in era---followed by your favorite Bronx Bombers...
Speaking of blind squirrels, the Red Sox pitching has been totally unexpected this season so far. They have 5 shutouts and 9 one run games and their ERA is the best in baseball. As of today they have 3 starters (not counting Giolito) out Pivetta, Whitlock, and now Bello. Not only that but Story is out once again for the season, Devers has missed 11 games and Casas is out until late June. Don't know how long they can compete but their defense is getting better after costing them 4-5 games.
A blind squirrel...
Is Brian Cashman a baseball savant or was he just just lucky?

Well, beat the drum and hold the phone - the sun came out today!
We're born again, there's new grass on the field.
A-roundin' third, and headed for home, it's a brown-eyed handsome man;
Anyone can understand the way i feel.
Chorus:
Oh, put me in, coach - i'm ready to play today;
Put me in, coach - i'm ready to play today;
Look at me, i can be centerfield.
Well, i spent some time in the mudville nine, watchin' it from the bench;
You know i took some lumps when the mighty casey struck out.
So say hey willie, tell ty cobb and joe dimaggio;
Don't say "it ain't so", you know the time is now.
Chorus
Yeah! i got it, i got it!
Got a beat-up glove, a homemade bat, and brand-new pair of shoes;
You know i think it's time to give this game a ride.
Just to hit the ball and touch 'em all - a moment in the sun;
(pop) it's gone and you can tell that one goodbye!

Field of Dreams (1989)
"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But baseball has marked the time.
This field, this game, is a part of our past, Ray.
It reminds us of all that once was good, and that could be again.
Oh people will come, Ray. People will most definitely come."
--Terence Mann (James Earl Jones) to Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner)
