OT:LET'S GO METS

[nutfromSEC117]

Mets should pretend to trade Tejada !

Let's go mets ! One of the best 4 inning stretch I ever seen , line drives every where

JEROME WILLIAMS is pitching tomorrow [banana]. Gave up 8 runs and didn't get out of the second in Miami :baseball::boom::bomb:

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Tim tueffel and Tom Goodwin also had two hits tonight !!!

 

[BigEastPhil]

Rejecting the Carlos Gomez deal is probably the only good thing that the Mets medical staff has done in over a decade....:)

No, the Phillies changed their starter for tomorrow. It's Jenny Finch.
Good luck.

Her ERA is a full run lower than CC's...

[shields]

The girl from a League of their Own is better than CC.

 

[runuts]

Last night Ron Darling said Juan Samuel looks like he could still play. That was the worst trade ever Samuel for Dykstra I still cringe thing about that.

 

[PhilaPhans]

From a Phillies fan ... that was an impressive showing by the Mets yesterday.

We gave them McDowell too,

 

[Kbee3]

I agree.
Mercifully, CC has NO spot when Pineda returns to the rotation in a few days. That is unless management decides to screw another of their starters like they did Adam Warren. CC is done. Perhaps the Phillies or the Rockies cold use him. After all he DOES have a lower ERA than the guy Philadelphia is sending out there tonight to face the Queen's Bombers.

 

[RCTrooper]

Mets set 2 club records yesterday:
-most HRs in a game (8)
-most extra base hits in a game (15)

not bad for a team that many said was one of the worst offenses in baseball.

Can't wait for Duda to get back in 12 days! It'll be the first time this offense is entirely healthy.

 

[brista21]

The question is how often will Wright play going forward? I'm guessing to start he'll play 2, sit 1 more or less. At that I'm only thinking they'll go to a play 3, sit 1 as a maximum anyway. Its spinal stenosis, generally speaking it never gets better, all they can do is slow the progression and keep the guy comfortable.

 

[Jumba72]

Murphy's value is huge right now with Duda out and Wright needing a break now and then.

 

[FrankZ]

Wright won't play a day game after a night game, and I think should play 2 and then sit one. Uribe needs to play too, so I wouldn't go crazy on Wright PT.

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Take ur mind off of the Flood BS and watch the big blue wrecking crew. Cespesdes 2run HR top of the 1st

 

[RUtrumpet92]

It's getting crazy. The Mets fall behind early, and I don't even worry if they will make a comeback. I just assume they will.

 

[nutfromSEC117]

6th and 7th are scary with this bullpen

 

[nutfromSEC117]

WTF Wright can't friggin field

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Colon tomorrow , gotta score at least 8 , Bartolo has been shaky lately

 

[Knight Shift]

Another win, foot on the throat of the Nats.
Yanks-15-1 loss. Ouch. Want a subway series.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

6th and 7th are scary with this bullpen

I think i'm buying Robles' stock. He's getting more and more comfortable as they use him more.

 

[RUforJERSEY]

BTW........Met-Phils, Astros-Yankees. Tensions all around. Baseball and it's unwritten rule book. [pfftt]

 

[knights1212]

The Mets must prove they can beat the Pirates or the Cubs before counting on winning the National League. They are definitely improved but they have a long way to go.

The Mets must prove they can beat the Pirates or the Cubs before counting on winning the National League. They are definitely improved but they have a long way to go.

And the Cardinals -- and even the Nats. The Mets are young, good and improving. But these other teams are good too -- even the Nats, if they can get out of their own way. And the Mets might not be there just yet. The NL is top heavy, and the top has some talented teams.

 

[KingHigh]

Baseball players are such little sissies. Waaah he showed happiness on the field. Let's throw a hard baseball 90 mph at his head as revenge.

 

[FrankZ]

Mets only have to beat one of Cards/Cubs/Pirates in a potential NLCS if we make it that far, and if of course we win the East. Think we need to root for Giants out of playoffs, Cards out in NLDS, and Yanks out prior to WS (not to stroke some egos more than necessary after digesting some posts on this thread).

Will take my chances regardless if we take the division.

 

[KingHigh]

Word around baseball is the Mets are the team that no one wants to play in the playoffs.

 

[RU5781]

 

[RUtrumpet92]

Even after last night's big line, here are Carlos Gomez's numbers on the Astros:

23 games, 17-89 (.191), 2 HR, 8 R, 8 RBI, 5 SB

Wilmer Flores in August:

20 games, 22-69 (.319), 3 HR, 12 RBI 15 R

Cespedes as a Met:

22 games, 30-98 (.306), 7 HR, 20 RBI, 16 R, 4 SB

That worked out well.

 

[RCTrooper]

This is a crazy stat:
Opening Day to July 24: Mets lowest scoring team in NL
July 25-August 25: Met highest scoring team in NL

 

[Mr Magoo]

What a difference a couple of weeks make. Back then, if a team scored two runs against them, you could almost shut the game off. Now, the lineup is amazing. d'Arnaud batted 8th last night!! He and Wright returned from injuries and Alderson acquires Cespedes, Uribe and Johnson and it's a different team with pitching, depth, and versatility. Just need some middle innings bullpen depth now.

 

[Knight Shift]

Thor gets hit pretty hard on occasion. I watched the post game interview. He is still learning the ropes.
I missed Monday's game. What happened with de Grom? Just a 1 game melt down?

 

[Mr Magoo]

deGrom's command was off as was his velocity. I heard somewhere that he said he was sick.

He looked sick actually, every time you saw his face it looked puffy and pale and his facial expressions weren't the norm.

 

[nutfromSEC117]

As I said gonna need 8. Colon just feels like he's resdy to give up 5 runs in hurry every inning

 

[nutfromSEC117]

Matz...... 6 scoreless ....one hit ...no walks... 6 k's See you next Wed kid!

 

[SAE96]

They just said he was dealing with food poisoning, but didn't want to use it as an excuse. You're right he looked sick that night.

 

[Knight Shift]

Jerad Eickoff's girlfriend shots are the best part of this game.

 

[Knight Shift]

Why is O'Flaherty pitching? And we have Carlos Torres in the wings?
