OT: NY Mets Season

[tico brown]

Rosario will of course be in the lineup most days. But rightly or wrongly, Callaway is going to protect him for now. Expect to see Reyes against tough righties with nasty breaking stuff.
AGREED. AND I LIKE HIM IN THE 9 SPOT BEHIND THE PITCHER. HES CONFORTABLE THERE AND IT ACTUALLY WORKS WITH CONFORTO/NIMMO NEXT.

Mets win another insignificant game. At some point they do add up though.

YEAH OK... LETS SEE HOW INSIGNIFICANTTHAT WIN IS IN SEPTEMBER, IF IT GETS THAT GOOD OF A SEASON FOR THEM.

First a win is a win...but how in flaming F is a win against the Nats insignificant. I need help with that thought process

It was intended to be a sarcastic reference to the repartee with BigTenRutgers earlier in this thread. Didn't work I guess.

You had me thrown off as it didn’t seem like a typical remark by you. My meter is broken after a week long seminar...

Awesome wil. Great to see Matz rebound nicely!

According to this, Mets is at 81 wins while the Yanks are at 94.5. I might go over if I'm the type.

No I'm not quoting myself. But just in case @Kbee3 tells me that I didn't have the confidence in Los Mets this year, here's a 3.28.18 post. I'm just not the gambling type lol.

It sure would be nice to win another unimportant game tomorrow.

They already won an unimportant series vs an unimportant team.

Let's get this sweep tonight!

Calloway might have best start as manager since Torre in 1977

It will end tonight with Harvey pitching. I have a friend Shirley who throws harder than him.

Shirley? You can't be serious.

Huh? Harvey has talent and had injuries. Don’t you expect a big year from him since he’s playing for a contract?

No shot to win this game...been very lucky so far. Will be lucky to win another 70 games at most...

Time to put Shirley in. And let her bean Harper in his douchey face.

 

[Knight Shift]

Gonzalez!!!!

 

[ruready4somefootball_rivals]

Yea baby, Gonzo Granny.4-2 good guys.

 

[Zak57]

Wow expected nothing like that from him this year.

 

[shields]

Gonzo goes deep.

 

[tico brown]

Gonzalez is another player who's shutting me up this year lol. #GrandSlam!!!

 

[ruready4somefootball_rivals]

Wow expected nothing like that from him this year.

It's going to be a Magical Year. Last year was a disaster from the get go, and you could see it coming. It reminds of what we are seeing happening to the,oh never mind,lol.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Meaningless sweep of a division rival in April. Nothing to see here.

Despite another big game from Bryce Harper (3-for-4, HR, 2 BB), the Nationals fall 6-5 to the Mets and have been swept at home by New York. The loss drops the Nats under .500 for the first time since August 2015, ending their MLB-best string of 961 days at or above .500.

 

[AntiG]

how funny would it be if the Mets signed him in the offseason

 

[ruready4somefootball_rivals]

Yup, haters gonna hate, in fact some go into hiding until they got something to say. Time to start bringing up those 27 rings that they've won,most of which were before a lot of them were even born,lol.[laughing]

Love that one, can I use that in the future?

 

[Knight Shift]

Yeah, were are all the big mouth Marlins and Yankee fans to flame? The Boston Red Sox thread should be fun this week.

Let's keep it going and have some fried fish this week.

 

[Zak57]

7-1 and a sweep of the nats. Feels good!!

 

[Doctor Worm]

Meanwhile in the Bronx, the Yankees $200MM+ man attained the coveted Platinum Sombrero twice in one week. In contrast, in 1941 Joe DiMaggio only struck out 13 times all season. In 1950 Yogi Berra only struck out 12 times all season. Stanton has almost matched that in two games!

The game has changed a little over the years, no?

 

[cicero grimes]

We cannot let up vs. the Marlins. Bank as many wins as you can when you are hot.

 

[Doctor Worm]

Mets bringing up Wheeler on Wednesday, when they will finally need a fifth starter. I guess Vargas isn't yet ready, and they don't want to mess with Gsellman and Lugo.

 

[Knight Shift]

It's how I live life. Snapping necks, banking checks.

Its early but they all count at the end.

More in-division wins in April equals less nail-biters in September

 

[Doctor Worm]

More in-division wins in April equals less nail-biters in September

I'll be satisfied if it translates to more nail-biters in September, given that last year we didn't have any.

 

[ruready4somefootball_rivals]

Consider the fact the Mets only beat the Nats 4 times all last season, and the same the year before,so winning the first 3 this year is a major accomplishment, despite what the "Disasters" are saying.

[cicero grimes]

I am still not sold on the Nats bullpen, which has been a problem for them for years. It's early but right now I like our pitching better.
