38 games vs. the two worst teams in baseball ?
That's gotta do wonders for your won-loss record.
Last year's NL East was one of the worst divisions in the history of baseball. This season, the teams are still pretty bad, but as of now, the Mets are tanking.
Did you honestly think that trying to create a "Met's Only" thread on this board without comments and trolling from other local (and not so local) teams would be a successful endeavor?
The other thread was fine and still fairly tame IMO.
Yup, saying "only" on any thread is a beacon signal for others to jump in and cause chaos!
Yeah but right now we don't want to talk about the Mets right now. Here's some notes from Metsblog (it's still early):
New York's 1-4 mark through the first five games at home is the franchise's worst five-game start in Queens since the 1997 club also went 1-4 at Shea Stadium.
Mets starters not named Syndergaard are 1-4 with a 5.33 ERA.
Entering play Tuesday, the Mets ranked dead last in the majors in batting average (.185), slugging percentage (.251) and OPS (.529).
Curtis Granderson snapped an 0-for-20 skid with a double leading off the first inning.
Infirority complex from a Junior Circuit AL franchise? Nah.
New York is and always was National League MLB town like all US major cities are.
You are an idiot. NL town??? You mean the town that lost two NL teams to the west coast? 63 World Series wins by the "Junior Circuit" vs 48 by the "Senior Circuit". Come to the table with facts next time!

At least I have been seen in public, at games, on the sidelines. This clown only wants to derail this thread. You just need to see all of his stupid comments above.
Easy there. Lots of major league hitters start off a season looking awful. Tex was notorious for it.
If ARod is still struggling in another month or so...here comes the Judge.
And as far as Harvey's record goes they had a stat about his record. When he has given up like 2 runs or less his record is a joke because the Mets do not score runs for him. Losses or no decisions. There was a year where Andy Pettite was given on average 6 runs a game and only won like 17 games and Andy had a lot of runs scored for him. I remember a game where he gave up 10 runs and got a no decision.
Did Matt Harvey steal T2K's lunch money or girlfriend or fiance? 90% of T2K's posts are trolling in the weather threads or trolling on Matt Harvey. Amusing and sad at the same time.
Interesting notes about Harvey and something Warthen said yesterday:
Mets pitching coach Dan Warthen has spotted a flaw in Matt Harvey's delivery in the stretch that could explain Harvey's 0-3 start.
After the Mets' 7-5 loss in Cleveland Saturday, Warthen told reporters the righthander is collapsing his back leg in the stretch. That breaks down the mechanics in his delivery, robbing Harvey of the "quick arm" Warthen says Harvey has when pitching without runners on base.
Saturday's numbers bear that out. Without runners on, Cleveland was 1-for-14 against Harvey with three strikeouts. When Harvey pitched out the stretch starting in the fifth, the Indians went 5-for-8 against him, with three walks and two stolen bases that led to five runs.
Through three games, Harvey (0-3, 5.71) has a 2.40 ERA in the first five innings and a 27.00 ERA in the sixth.
Yanks got lucky last year with Arod. Thought they were getting nothing last season and he was a threat. This year nothing, 0-5 yesterday. He certainly shouldn't be hitting in the middle of the order
You're a Yankee fan belittling a Met fan in a Mets oriented thread, but the other guy's a troll. I'll just assume you don't know what the word means.
Nice to see Matz get it together today. The Mets really need him to do well this season. Conforto is beginning to mature as well!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, because it bears repeating. T2K is a joke and a know-nothing troll. When you use a pitchers record to describe his worth, you know nothing about baseball which is a team sport. Matt Harvey has gotten absolutely horrible run support throughout his entire career. If your troll a$$ can't understand that then I don't know what to say. I sense a bit of butthurt jealousy.
Anyway, I'll give Harvey the benefit of the doubt at this point and trust that him and Warthen (who's been tremendous) will fix his mechanics.

No doubt about it. King Felix and many many other great pitchers have been robbed of tons of wins because of putrid run support. It's not Harvey's fault the mets sucked his first 2 seasons. Now they are finally a solid team capable of scoring runs, though he hasn't been pitching too hot to start off the season unfortunately.
But he's throwing gas, the velocity is there. Hes a bulldog on the mound. He's missing with his slider and change up, but he's just too good for that continue. Harvey will be just fine.

Great site to see.. a 1/2 empty Citizens Bank park with 1/4 Mets fans.
