OT: Official 2022 NY Mets Season And Post Season Thread

Deals still trickle in after the deadline so have to give it an extra 30 mins on the other side of 6 as well.
 
Cubs are FULL OF 💩!!!!! They gave away Robertson for a TJ guy who haven’t sniffed above A Ball but yet wanted a Kings Ransom from the Mets.

Can we please stop with the conspiracy theories against Cohen? They may have wanted a lot in a package deal with Contreras, but on its own, this is what you get for a rental. The rest of the league doesn't exist to make the team you love better. Trades have to work for both sides on some level.

Don't forget that they signed him off the scrap heap this winter on a prove it deal and now they turned it into a SP prospect, which has been what they have been doing with this re-build: emphasizing young starting pitching prospects.
 
Mychal Givens, who is 32, had a 2.66 ERA and 1.254 WHIP in 40 appearances covering 40⅔ innings for the Cubs this year. His sidearm/submarine style was generally quite effective and he has not allowed an earned run over his last 16 appearances dating back to mid-June, with 20 strikeouts over those 16 outings.

He was good and had a good demeanor on the mound. I never worried about him when he was in there. Now did he get as many opportunities as he could have since we are re-building and suck balls? No. But that speaks to his consistency and professionalism. Good pick up.

The Mets didn't go the sexy trade route this year, but I think you guys did well and addressed needs. Plus it helps to add a Cy Young arm at the trade deadline. Wish you well the rest of the way. Now, let me get back to scouring minor league reports for hope.

Cy Young arm?
 
Jacob DeGrom. If Max and Jacob are healthy and right going into the playoffs, you guys can beat anyone. Playoffs are a whole different season.
Wilmer Flores and JD Davis will lead the Giants to a wild card or NL West title, and take out the Mets.

Wouldn't that be a kick in the nuts to the Padres and the Mets?

Sorry Knight, no nuts will be kicked in San Diego this season.

Maybe some LA nuts though
 
Ok- last 2 games worked. 4 guys with multi hit tonight, 5 innings 7 k for deGrom. Alonso goes deep again and a 6-1 win
 
Well I'm bummed (this has lessened from the expected ticked since we at least got the RP in the last couple minutes). Just not good enough in my opinion, but we proceed on.

Anyone else both excited and nervous/apprehensive about the Jake return tonight? The hype has been major and a lot of expectations are being helped upon his shoulders. I will feel much more relaxed once I see 4-5 starts with a sub 2.00 era and no physical issues for the month of August.
 
Mets high on their top 5 prospects
DeGrom back
They like a fully healthy May
Made some nice veteran moves
Megill throwing 98-99 out of the pen is intriguing
They’re in First place
10 games above last wildcard so they’re making Playoffs with Jake and max in games one and two
 
Don't overplay your hand. It will be hilarious if the Padres fail. It would not surprise me.
We’ve got 3 runs at this thing.

I have them as NLCS or bust this season. 1 World Series in the next 2 after that.

Too much talent to expect otherwise.
