Chris Bassitt takes the mound for the Mets in the biggest game of the season against the Braves and Charlie Morton. Bassitt has two starts against ATL this season, going 1 and 1. He gave up 3 ER in 7 IP on 5/2 (L) and 1 ER in 6 IP on 7/13 (W). Morton, who just signed a big contract extension, is 1 and 2 against the Mets this season. He gave up 4 ER in 5/3 (L), 5 ER in 5 IP on 7/3 (L), and 0 ER in 6 2/3 IP on 8/16 (W).

I would move Pete back to 4th in the lineup. If the Mets win they control their NL East fate as they win the season series against ATL so the Magic Number is 3 with 3 games left. It's on ESPN at 7:07 ET and not that weird 7:20 time from the last two nights. #LFGM

I'm putting the last two days out of my mind and focusing on tonight. Win tonight and we have three exciting days to win the pennant. "How did you get in my car?" and #LFGM!

A Mets win allows them to control their own destiny

Fuck that stupid racist chant.
Which they encourage by shutting the lights and letting the fans "chop" while holding their phones. It's cool but it's still racist.

And F their attention-seeking organist.

And F the guy I know in ATL who just sent me a text with the Braves flag.

It's 6:07, 7:07 can't come soon enough!

So this us essentially the biggest regular season game for any team this year and ESPN is fortunate enough to have it land in their lap.

So given that gift of being able to present this game to the entire country, what percentage of the game will they show with game shrunken via split screens or other interruptions?



40 - 60% ?

60 - 80% ?

More than 80% ?



Sorry, those are your only choices.

I'm getting tired of trying to be OK with leaving runners on in the 1st inning via the justification of 'well at least we made their guy throw a lot of pitches ... and maybe that'll pay dividends later on'.



Too often it hasn't been paying off.

Nope. They were getting 1 or 2 on the board but now the pitchers often get it together and we look back at it as a missed opportunity.
