    I know Acuna is a much better defender than Joyce but I would have "rested" him by having him DH one of the games in this series

    3 HRs, 6 runs in under 5 IP.

    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    Exactly. I remind myself of this quite often. We as die hard fans sometimes forget, and tend to get too high and too low. The same thing that applies to the Mets, applies to us.

    The "dink" parade" starts early tonight. Brewers 1st hit blooped in RF by Cruz.

    Folty glanced at his wrist band after that.

    I was about to react with a “wow” until I realized they’re playing the Marlins again.

    Nice to see Folty not act like a second grader when the ump missed strike three. Long way to go to see if it's a new pattern in his behavior or not.

    That bracelet is a game changer.

    For those who dont know what he's referencing,

    Folty is wearing a rubber wristband that says "Don't be a little bitch". Camera showed him on the dugout railing yesterday with it clearly readable.

    Folty will probably always have an issue putting guys away. He consistently has 0-2 counts that lead to walks.

    That was an awful miss by the ump. Obviously strike 3.
