This is so like 2016 down the stretch fighting for that wildcard. Every pitch, every inning. Stearns has done a good job putting this team together. The honesty love playing together and are all just team players. They have each other’s backs. That can be a very tough team to beat.

nycdan Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 Winning while watching ATL, ARI, and SD all win as well is kind of annoying. I know it moves us one game closer to the goal, but damn, does every other team in the wildcard race have to turn into the 2001 Mariners?

Ruby2 Posted September 19 Share Posted September 19 What do we think about easing back in Lindor at DH as long as Acuna is playing well? JD Martinez is absolutely lost right now. Also am I seeing that Friday's game is Apple TV Exclusive??? LMAO Insane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby2 Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Who was the lead announcer on that Z squad Fox production last night with Smoltz. That was by far the worst called game I have ever heard outside of that apple tv bullsh*t. Just unbelievably embarassing. His call on Vientos's home run was hysterically inept. "A hard drive down the left field......*pauses awkwardly trying to speak english*.... SIDE. Line dude, line. MLB needs to figure out how to get the teams actual announcers for the playoffs. These national guys know absolutely nothing about the teams. Its horrific and needs to change. On a non bitching about everything angle, how great is it that Alvarez is starting to show some pop and consistency? Perfect timing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section314 Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Alonso continues to not produce vs good teams. 2nd and 3rd no outs in first, K. Think 6th, 8-2 Phils, two outs and men on 2nd and 3rd, they actually pitched around Vientos to load the bases to pitch to Alonso and he obliged, called out on a fastball. He is making Cohen and Stearns decision pretty easy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 Was at the game last night. Felt like a playoff game, stadium was rocking. There’s a very special vibe about Acuna. Didn’t feel like that at Citi with some of the other young guys initially. Really feels like you’re watching the future of the franchise now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very impressive young guy. Plays with the poise of a 5 year veteran.When Lindor comes back do they put Acuna in CF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much of a leader as he is on the field, the defense is doing fine so far without him, and it's not worth risking losing his bat again. Next year, Acuna to second base, if I had to guess. The lineup is so up in the air for next year given Pete and Soto, so who knows. Gilbert and Jett will likely be making big pushes for call-ups next year too. Maybe even Clifford. Good problems to have, for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted Monday at 01:54 AM Share Posted Monday at 01:54 AM I think if you're Mendoza you have to be considering moving Manaea up to start game 3 of the Atlanta series. He pitches fine on 5 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted Monday at 03:06 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 03:06 PM Take 2 out of 3 in Atlanta and this thing is over. Feel like I have said that before. Maybe an errant throw hitting the third base bag when it should have been in the outfield proves Mets are a team of destiny. Seriously, Alvarez needs to work on that defense. Calls a good game, but he needs to sharpen up behind the dish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there another example of team that own's the Mets the way the Braves do? In any sport?!?!?!?!

Ruby2 Posted Wednesday at 01:13 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:13 PM God I hate the ******* Braves. Have the Braves signed Michael Harris II to a 6 year 20 million dollar deal yet? If not we need to think about picking him off in a few years. We dont even have to play him, give him 200 million just to not be on the Braves goddamn. Severino looks gased now for the third start in a row. Its hard to not think that the innings caught up with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section314 Posted Wednesday at 01:55 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 01:55 PM The bad 1) Severino had a chance to set the tone and basically was a no-show. 2) JD Martinez has to be in the lineup every day. I don’t care if he’s 1/40 or whatever. He had more big game experience than anyone on this team. Would trust him more than Alonso in a big spot any day of the week. The good 1) this team has been resilient as hell for 4 months; expect a big bounce back game Sale or no Sale. 2) two of the three guys in the lineup who are the core of the future, Vientos and Acuna, were our two best guys on the field and didn’t look like the moment was too big for them at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted Thursday at 12:07 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:07 PM Crossing fingers that Monday doesn't even matter. AZ plays SD their final series and Padres will have to try and win that first game to lock everything up since the Mets have the tiebreaker. Wondering what Milwaukee is going to do since division seeding is pretty much done at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braves told Manfredi that they would not move the location or play a DH on Tuesday. They knew that requiring Mets to fly home and then to Milwaukee and then back to Atlanta a day after the season ended to play a DH would screw the Mets. I hope Atlanta loses out and Mets sweep Brewers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
