There will be nothing bigger than this to happen in a WS game to secure the win at home- There is and has never been a better closer entrance. Sorry Mo

Mets have a chance for a pretty good start to the 2024 season. We'll know in a couple of weeks.
Little concerned about Diaz velocity. He's not giving up hits though so for now will keep it on the back burner.
Hey, hey, hey-- Vogey is my guy. and I ain't sharing him with @cubuffsdoug . Not enough Vogey to go around.
Vogey's Blue Jays took down the Jankees tonight. He has a .500 OBP this year. We will not talk about his AVG or SLG%. 🤣
Still MO’s song. Yeah- Billy had it but Mo owned it. But bring the trumpets at Citi in a playoff atmosphere- there will be nothing like it
Can't wait for the Lindorks to get lost again, on base 3 more times tonight
It’s been fun watching us claw back to this point. Drew smith hiccup tonight, the bullpen is (knock on wood) seems much stronger than last year. I’d leave Butto as well.
Martinez won't be joining on the road trip but should be ready after if all goes well.
Post game buffets are the best. I remembered the ones I had while playing arena ball. You could pack on weight without trying. 🤣
I see all these people that pick top entrances and he is never top- makes no sense.
This entrance is much watch baseball even if you are not a fan of the Mets.
Gary just touched on it but Jones had a big problem with walks in the minors last year. Safe to say he's figured that out.
Yeah they have Skenes up in the month or so probably who is best pitching prospect in minors. Then they have another 2 guys after that with good upsides in Solometo and Chandler.
We have more work to do on our system. But we’ve got a good guy for it in charge.
How bout that bullpen !
Hope all is ok with Baty !
Really impressed with Mendoza. It’s amazing we’re 9-8 after 0-5 start.
Need to sweep tomorrow especially with west coast trip coming up !

Another series W. Bullpen was phenomenal tonight. We definitely got some luck with Pitt taking Jones early while he was cruising. Let's get that sweep!
Not amazing at all IMO. That's baseball. It's a long season and you have hot and cold streaks. Our cold streak came right at the beginning, which made it more noticeable.
This may sound snarky, and I do not mean it to be so, but after 17 games, exactly what has impressed you about Mendoza? TBH he has made little or no impression on me either way, neither positive nor negative. But maybe not noticing the manager is a good thing.
As a rookie manager being able to steer a sinking ship at 0-5 to 9-8.
I think that’s impressive especially when Lindor and Alvarez have basically been bystanders to date.
Team is playing with emotion and continues to fight back.
I also think he handles the media room well and players are playing hard for him.
I’m pretty sure that the manager isn’t doing much of anything different now.
Your feelings on the manager have sure turned around from when you posted this after the first handful of games.
Well I'll chime in and say that I thought that his calling for a double steal late in the game last night was brilliant. All those years with the Yankees so you know he knows Chapman very well. Strengths and weaknesses. So knew he could exploit him there even with guys who normally wouldn't be swiping bases.
I never got how Sterling lasted so long with his act. It sounded more like a clown show and amaturistic to me. With that said, there is a whole generation of Yankees fans that loved his HR calls so to each their own. I hope he has a healthy enjoyable retirement.
I don't know about BigEastPhil, but I'm not a fan of anything Yankee having a say in Mets manners.😊 The first week of the season the Mets fooled around with players who had no business being in the MLB and it led to a very slow start. That was frustrating beyond belief. I reacted negatively because I felt it was cruel to see this approach consider how Mets fans have been suffering for such a long time. It gave me flashback to the Coupons Era.🥺 Most Rutgers/Mets fans have PTSD.
