You never know what Julio Teheran is going to give the Braves, either. Very unpredictable matchup tomorrow night.
Teheran always does well vs the Mets. They got to hit him hard and early. Probably have to score 20 runs with Vargas on the mound

Yesterday's game was exactly how our games should go. SP goes a good 6 innings- 2 RP's come in and basically shut it down. We switched up the lineup a bit and the new leadoff hitter gets 2 hits and the slumping leadoff is moved down and has a big day. Give our young superstar 1B a rest and the other young top prospect comes in and has a good game. And we saved our 8 and 9 inning guys who we will most likely need today.

As well as our 6th and 7th inning guys. Hopefully not our 4th and 5th inning try to fend off any further damage guy. :flushed:

Would just like to see Vargas and others to hold them to 5 runs today. If he can give us 5 innings and give up 4 or less, I’ll take my chances.
I think he is resting Ramos today(which is ok) but I hope he doesn’t take McNeil out of the lineup. I fully expect Nimmo to be rested today though as he got 3 hits yesterday to pull out of a season long slump. Would hate to keep him hot.

Why Vargas? Why give away games especially divisional ones? You can dig up a dead body with better stuff than Vargas
I knew he wouldn’t get out of the first inning. I’m here for this shi’t but knew it before hand I came for the free food and booze in delta 360 club wish I came tomorrow Degrom will dominate.

I seriously think at age 57 I can pitch better then Vargas my slider and curve are better and his fastball looked like mid 80’s hopefully they cut him immediately.

Would rather have Patton Oswalt out there instead of Corey right now.

Well my words were a bit too prophetic. Needed the 1st inning guy. Too bad he wasnt able to hold the fort even after the offense scraped their way all the way out of the hole that Vargas had dug them into.

Oswalt is the right-hand version of Vargas. How in the hell do the Mets end up with both of them? Only the Mets can pull something off like this.:flush:

We will see if BVW really wants to win and win now as he said or if he was just talking out his ***.

Wow. One of the Braves announcers was just commending Lee Harvey Oswalt on the job that he did. Said he did give up 5 runs but he gave them innings. These always homer Braves announcers would think he did a fine job.

By starting Vargas, the Mets confirm the old saying of taking 2 of 3 or 3 of 4 and be satisfied because it's a long season. In this division, every game will count. You can't afford to give away games to a second-tier team. Yes, I said it Atlanta is a fraud.

Time to try to get Baumgartner from the Giants. They are in a rebuild. Last year of contract $12M. Gimenez and a young pitcher?

Who can the Mets deal to get an adequate 5th starter? Would a package of Dom Smith; Corey Oswalt and maybe some veteran from Syracuse (like Carlos Gomez) get anything decent? Put Vargas on the IL or make him the mop up guy in the bullpen. He's painful to watch. Still don;t understand why Brodie didn;t sign Gio Gonzlaez to a minor league deal.

Teams that have adequate fifth starters don't give them up in April.

Teams that have more than 5 starters may. Also teams don’t dump in April or May so it’s either sign Keuchel or hope lugo can answer the bell or make a deal. I ll bet next option is lugo but this will weaken the bullpen and the bridge to Diaz.

I didn't watch the game yesterday but looking at the boxscore...it looks to me that he did sit Nimmo? Please tell me that isn't so.

What is the deal with our manager? It is almost a joke that every time someone gets 3 hits in a game that he sits him the next day...

I'd say better than 50% chance that Jacob's start gets rained out tonight. Unless Sun Trust park has excellent drainage.
