Quote of the day
"I mean, obviously, everything was working." -- Mets pitcher Matt Harvey, after allowing only one hit in 9 innings against the White Sox Daily blurb
Interleague play started way back in 1997, so at first blush, it seems surprising that yesterday was only the 4th all-time meeting between the Mets and the White Sox. I’m sure it’s because the Mets always face the Yankees, and the White Sox always face the Cubs, and those forced matchups often end up canceling out the normal rotational matchups. In any event, after facing Matt Harvey last night, I’m sure the White Sox have no inclination to see more of the Mets.
My RIBC team has had a tough start this season, with my top three picks – Stanton, Reyes, and Bourn – all on the DL. Fortunately, I snagged Harvey in round 12, and after last night, my team has moved up to 9th place. Not what I am shooting for, but at least my pitching is propping up my hitting for the time being. Steals are especially problematic, with Reyes and Bourn both on the shelf. So much for getting an early jump on that category.
