Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4326926, member: 27"] Last night was a nice victory. I went to bed just after Marte hit his second HR. Was happy to see they were able to hold on. It is a shame Buck had to use Ottovino, Diaz and May to get the win. Heard some criticism that Buck should have left Diaz in to pitch the ninth, which I disagree with. That would have definitely made him not available for today. Also, the Mets were only up 1 when he pitched the eighth inning and it was against the heart of the Braves lineup. Once the Mets put up 3 insurance runs, I think it was a no brainer to bring in someone else to finish things out. Wish Trevor did a better job. It looks like he has good stuff since he came back but he hasn't been very effective and I think it is because he is not locating his pitches very well. I see Max Fried is scheduled to pitch for the Braves tonight. They hurried him back from his concussion to face the Mets. Hope he is okay. Should be a good matchup against deGrom. Then we have a 4 game series against the Phillies in 3 days. Friday night Bassitt vs Nola Saturday game 1 ? vs ? Saturday game 2 ? vs ? Sunday vs ? vs Gibson I know the Mets plan to start Peterson and Trevor Williams in the doubleheader. Carrasco would have normally pitched one of those games. No idea who starts Sunday. It is Walker's turn but Buck says it is unlikely he is going to start. Might be a bullpen game but that will be tough coming out of Saturday, when it is likely the bullpen will be heavily used to complete both games of the doubleheader. Peterson has been pitching 4 innings pretty consistently for the Syracuse Mets (no idea why so few innings). The next guy would be Thomas Szapucki. But he was traded. Maybe Medina. I fear we are going to see a lot of runs scored for the Phillies this weekend. On the positive side, they were shut out last night by the Reds and lost 1-0. Then comes a 2 game series against the Yankees. Monday Scherzer vs German if they stay with their rotation Tuesday deGrom vs Montas if they stay with their rotation [/QUOTE]
