2019 Game 10: Minnesota Twins at New York Mets

Jake Odorizzi
vs
Noah Syndergaard

Both pitchers are coming off a loss. Syndergaard however gave up two runs over his six innings instead of five without finishing the first inning. This is Syndergaard's first appearance against the Twins in his career. Yesterday was also deGrom's first appearance against the Twins. Time for a repeat performance.

  2. Cory and Dazzle are blaming Odoreater's stinky performance last time on the weather. It certainly could have been a factor.

    1. As you noted, he looked pretty sharp just now so, until further notice, I will buy this excuse.

  3. Just my opinion, but I think Odo's first inning tonight was better than it was last time.

      1. Butter-roasted tomatoes with garlic, anchovies, & red pepper flake, hand-mashed after roasting, then tossed with bucatini, & served with local Parm.

  16. Now that's smart pitching. The old "wild pitch and catch the runner from third" play!

    1. I think I'd have preferred just about anyone. This is not the situation to send the new guy into the fire.

  30. I understand Baldelli has access to information we don't have. But all of us could see that the move to Vasquez didn't make a lot of sense before we saw the result. Yes, it's nice to be the smartest person in the room, but sometimes the common sense thing to do is the right one.

    1. I understand concern about the relievers pitching so much but they had on off day on Monday and another tomorrow. I think they're rested.

      1. And no one pitched more than an inning yesterday. Most of them pitched less than an inning. Surely our relievers can pitch one inning on back-to-back days.

  34. I have great timing. I turned the game on this inning. The only out I've seen was the play at third.

  41. Is it odd that I feel less irritated over a 2 run single than over the previous 4 runs given up over the course of this debacle?

      1. Even at this point, he couldn't do much worse than Vasquez did tonight or De Jong did last night.

  45. Dazzle, blaming the lack of Twins offense on them standing in the field too long is a very weak excuse.

  46. Given the schedule the Twins have had (too many off days, lots of road games, interleague games, some solid opponents, etc.), their record really isn't bad at all. It's just annoying that a couple of the losses were games they gave away.

    1. You know, think about how hard it is to go 0-for-50. I know he strikes out a lot, but still, you'd think somewhere in there he'd hit a blooper over the infield or a bouncer through the hole or something. 0-for-50 is just incredible.

    2. I know what you mean, but at least it would show the Twins didn't just roll over and quit when they got down. That seems to me to be a good sign.

        1. First instance this year where I’ve been totally befuddled by a Baldelli brainstorm.

    2. Looked like Guillorme (Mets’ 2B) pulled his foot off second on the turn of the 5-4-3 double play.

        1. That's what Cory and Dazzle thought. But at that point it was going to take two guys coming through to tie the game. Is Adrianza+ Cruz really better than Cruz +Kepler?
