As mercurial as his stuff is it's clear to me, this year even more than in years' past, that he really has no idea where the ball is going when he lets go of it.

Great last pitch. We can't lose!

[Guest d'Kong76]

Damn, that was a fat softball sized slider Castro looked at for strike three.

[Guest 41Forever]

8-1!!!!!!

That's the second game in a row that I wouldn't put into the time capsule to represent a baseball game at its best ... but we'll take it.

What a great start to a season. Just amazin'. Had to sweat a little there but datsAbaseball.

I feel like, as a manager, while I can't win 'em all, if I've at least gotten the tying run to the plate in the ninth, I've done my job. And it seems like Mets opponents are that close and closer every night, but the Mets come out on top. Every night.

I know it's a tribute to their depth. But it's also a tribute to luck. The bats need to open these things up.

And we need Nimmo in the lineup. He won't play tomorrow against the lefty, but he ought to have started today.

Cespedes needs a night off. He's looking logy, and he's supposedly been under the weather.

Winning ugly is okay.

Cast your vote!

I was thinking the same thing. But they're throwing a lefty tonight. Last night was the game to rest him. Could have started Nimmo.

2 ugly wins in a row, but so nice to bank these wins. Only 80 more W's to secure a wild card!

Twice before, the Mets have started 8-1: in 1985, when they did not reach the playoffs, and in 2006, when they reached the National League Championship Series. With one more victory, the 2018 Mets would have the best start in franchise history.

Those were two hellacious seasons. Look at that July in 1985.
