Seriously, do y'all have an assembly line hidden in the bowels of E. 161st, or something? I'm still scarred by memories of Luis "Arm Care" Rojas, even 4 years after the fact, as the relevant pages of the Mets thread will attest.

Tonight's lineup featured Michael Conforto in the #2 hole. Now, Mike's had a nice couple of weeks, but the logic for hitting him there last night was that Conforto lights up Max Scherzer, specifically. And Kevin Gausman ≠ Max Scherzer, in case Rojas-bot didn't know.
