Or am I doing that wrong I was off by a game. Really thought after the 1st inning we were going to roll. What’s up with deGrom lately. Players are catching up to his fastball (amazingly) and laying off the slider. Needs to mix in a 3rd pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sign in after a win lately just to catch the magic number from you As for deGrom, I dunno today was completely out of character but so was the whole game, as they mentioned in the broadcast, The As are one of the worst defensive teams in the league but you wouldn’t know that from today. They were making great plays all over the plac e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lith Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Seeing some soeculation that the seires could be moved out of Atlanta due to the Hurricance. NOAA path has it coming through Atlanta area in Friday-Saturday time frame. From an article I just read: https://calltothepen.com/2022/09/26/hurricane-ian-impact-atlanta-braves-series-new-york-mets/ As it turns out, the biggest story that weekend may not be on the diamond. Hurricane Ian is strengthening in the Gulf of Mexico and is expected to hit Florida, making landfall anywhere from the Tampa Bay area to the Panhandle, either late Wednesday or early Thursday morning. From there, it would slowly move north, hammering Georgia by Friday. This leaves Major League Baseball with a nightmare scenario. As this series is important to the playoff hunt, they have to find a way to play those three games. However, it may not be feasible to play in Atlanta as it is an open air stadium and, with the storm expected to be overhead, it would not have been safe to play anyway. There are possible options. Both teams are off on Thursday, so the league could look to have the series begin that day, take the next two days off for the storm, and play a doubleheader on Sunday. The Rangers are also on the road this coming weekend, allowing for the possibility of a neutral site series with a dome in case of rain. There are options, even if neither is perfect. What is clear is that the league is rapidly running out of time to decide how to handle this series. Unless the storm continues to track further west, sparring Georgia but hitting the Gulf Coast instead, they will need to find another venue for this series. Unless they play with the schedule, but even then, there is no guarantee that Truist Park will be in any shape to host a game on Sunday.

Citi Field should be offered at no cost to Atlanta. They can keep all the profits after salaries & other expenses taken out.... we keep concessions. ? We are so generous.

Weekend on the South Side would sound pretty good to me. Although if they move the games -- I would guess they would keep them down south. Texas, and Miami are both on the road. I think those would be most likely spots. It would be either that or the Thursday doubleheader, Sunday single game option in Atlanta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hoping we go into Atlanta and at least take 2 of 3 and leave in control of our destiny, but I am expecting wild card.

Only thing that bothers me a little right now is it seems (no stats to back this up) that the Mets have been relying on the long ball these passed couple weeks Feel like that’s not our game. Also feel like Marte being out has hurt mother than it would show on the stats sheet. If we had to go down to the wire and play for first. As a met fan born in early eighties. It’s the braves id wanna beat. Those Chipper jones teams ripped our hearts out yearly I feel like. Not to mention,Chipper Jones, who I respect as much as you can respect a rival, names his kid shea (which is awesome in its own right). No team I’d love to beat out for first place then the braves.

It is just that I have been a Mets, Jets, Islanders fan for so long that I am conditioned to expect the worst, but hope for the best. 36 years without a championship -- it is hard to have the bravado that other fans enjoy. Gerogia's national cahmpionship was not enough to change my SOJ, SOI or SOM mentality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
