Awful pitching by matz awful letting that scrub off the hook in the early game.
When you play like this mets team does there is NO SUCH THING as an easy schedule.
Well, it sure looks like he was right about the Yanks winning the series. I thought it would be 2 wins each....but I'll take #3 tomorrow.
BTW, Hansel Robles is awful funny.
Cespedes on the 15 Day DL. He played a round of golf yesterday afternoon. Maybe he should have rested and the Mets should have rested him. The team is the walking wounded right now, with no starter playing at 3B, SS, 1B, LF, and no solid catcher. Murph homered last night for the Nats. . . .
Shut down by the big sexy. Cry Girardi, Cry. Fair ball.
Was starting to worry about Bruce. Hope he can break out of the slump he was in with this home run being the start of a streak.
Bartolo becomes the first pitcher to get a win on both sides of the Subway Series.
Pathetic series by both teams. Terry Collins' typical mismanagement of the bullpen, helped the Yanks in that game 1 win.
I'm surprised the Mets are only one game back of the 2nd WC, given how poorly they've played recently. I'm not sure they have enough offense to keep up with the Cards though.
I didn't realize how terrible the Yankees starting pitching is, until this series. They need five new starters. Someone posted they'd be back to the playoffs in three years. That's doubtful. It's going to take more than that just to rebuild the staff, let alone the oldest team in baseball.

I'm right so often I sometimes amaze myself.
BTW, I can't recall the last time I saw two teams with pretty much nothing but .250 hitters.
Two mediocrities.
De Aza may be a good short term solution at CF. Made a few nice plays last night. If his bat could stay alive . . . Keep him in CF, and rotate Grandy, Bruce and Conforto as needed.
Happy that Degrom beat the overrated Tanaka. Bruce needs to play every day.
Surely you're not suggesting Bruce being something other than a full-time starter? On pace for over 30 hr's and well over 100 rbi's.
Only if Bruce wants to take a day to go golfing to rest his quad.
I guess I was suggesting rotate Bruce/Conforto/Grandy between LF and RF, but it seems Bruce is RF only, so the only rotation could be Conforto/Grandy, and Grandy does OK at CF, so it will be a three way rotation with Bruce having a lock on RF. Word is that Bruce is a liability in the outfield, but he makes up for it at the plate.
To be honest, I wouldn't trade Colon for Tanaka. Yankees are poised to be the JV in NYC once again..
As far as calling the Mets the JV, Lol,so much for NOT listening to Fatsessa. That's his favorite tired line he uses whenever a Met caller gets under his skin.
Funny how since the salary cap,the free spending Stankees can't string dominate years forever. The league is way more balanced cost wise.This reality hits the fan base hard,so the only thing left is to bash the Met fan base. I remember when I went from JV to my call up to Varsity. It was a sweet feeling.
Colon, 43, said he was surprised Alex Rodriguez was not in the starting lineup, considering he's batting .442 with eight home runs against him.
"I always say, 'That's my dad,'" Colon admitted after the game.
Who's your Daddy?

Typical mets fan. Delusional.
Calm down. You split four games with a Yankees team that has given up on the season and have only TWO more wins this year than they do. Your season will end the same day that the Yankees season ends.
All I know is that out of all of the Mets pitchers who were expected to dominate this year, its been the one pitcher who was expected not to do much who have been the most consistent: Bartolo Colon and his 10-6, 3.46 this year. Yeah he has had some rough outings, they all have. But its gotten to a point where when its his turn, you feel like the Mets have a chance to win. Despite when some here, and especially the two morning radio c**ts who are ALWAYS riding him because hes fat, old, washed up or any other reason that crawled up their arse, Colon usually comes up with a good start that keeps the Mets afloat .
Says The Perfect Person who condones ARod, Pettite, Clemmons
Well. I AM pretty close to perfect...I try.
But I don't recall ever hearing about those guys having second families.
I think maybe Wade Boggs.
Anyway...
Its amazing that theres 2, 3 Yankee threads on here with Mets fan staying out of them. In fact the only time the Mets are brought up are by Yankee fans. But the Yankee fans sure love to troll their PED asses onto one Mets thread. They must be that insecure that they have to talk sh** for no reason. Just worry about your own team your miserable selves.

Time to move on to Detroit after going 2-2 vs the Yankees. Shouldve done better but didnt (the story of the year). Still time for the Mets to get that home WC game. Hopefully they can get their heads out their asses and start playing better.
Didn't Mark Whitten get caught with another woman on the night one of his GF's gave birth to his child?
LOL, well it could have been worst you dumb ***,lmao.http://deadspin.com/5897087/remembering-the-deal-of-the-century-when-two-yankees-swapped-wives
The same day that it has ending for how many years in a row now for the Stankees????
FWIW, tonight it's Nimmo in left, de Aza in center, Bruce in right, Grandy DH.Only if Bruce wants to take a day to go golfing to rest his quad.
