RutgersJetFan Posted Thursday at 07:49 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:49 PM 18 minutes ago, Paradis said: Not that i have a ton of baseball perspective, but psychologically this team is built to run the gauntlet. They've found that space/zone mentally to exist in where inhibitions and doubts have given way to confidence and conviction. It takes a season of overcoming trials and tribulations as the Mets have done in 2024 to get that special zone - but they're fcking dialed in now. With the WS being a reality they can taste, I think it'll be full throttle the rest of the way... Interestingly, i think SD is a similar spot. Two trains on a crash course, barreling toward each other. I'm hesitant. They have had vibes like this before and come up just short. '15 had a different but equally astonishing feeling to it and then Lucas Duda came along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a 100 year old house and let me tell you there's a reason why it's made it so far. Some paint damage, lost a gutter, and a minor ceiling drip, but otherwise this thing held up like a champ. Feel so blessed and luckily I'll be able to help out my people in the area who were less fortunate. As a whole, I expected the worst and am pleasantly surprised. Also, the eye of the storm is so eerie and had to text people not to start opening windows because it wasn't over. Hope all is well up by you. LFGM! That’s awesome dude, where you at in Florida?

Rangers9 Posted Saturday at 04:57 AM Share Posted Saturday at 04:57 AM I thought Padres would win because of their offense which I thought was better than the LAD but they got shut out. As Mets know very easy to get shut out. As for Ohtani how could he not win NL MVP he's the best player in baseball. And this season not even pitching.

This year there is not a player in MLB that is more valuable to his team than Lindor has been. His leadership has been and continues to be off the charts. Without him, this team would be drafting in the top 5. The Dodgers would still be a play team without Ohtani. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look Ohtani is one of the all time greats esp if you factor in his pitching. Lindor is the Mets MVP but not the NL MVP. Ohtani is a 50-50 player with 130 rbis.

He hasn't done jack sh*t this postseason and here LA is. Lindor quite literally batted the Mets into the playoffs and into the NLCS. Impossible to imagine the Mets being here without Lindor and the Dodgers would probably be here without Ohtani. Not to mention the fact that all of a sudden the guy has a 50/50 season when he doesn't have to worry about getting dinged up in the more taxing aspect of the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirorob Posted Saturday at 09:08 PM Share Posted Saturday at 09:08 PM I don't love DHs getting the mvp, but ohtani was top 3 in basically every offensive category. Runs, RBI, HR, Batting Avg, Slugging, Doubles, triples, steals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, it's easier being a DH. He did have an epic season. As for wins and losses, that's more on pitching injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonds probably hits another 5 per year if he didn't have to schlep his fatass to left every day. An MVP isn't a hitting award. IMO LaRussa put it best when he was vocally against ARod during the Ranger years, an MVP is the player that does the most to get their team to the playoffs. In that regard, it's Lindor hands down. The Dodgers make the playoffs without Ohtani, the Mets don't without Lindor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
