Yeah, the clunk! sound effect has had to be employed a few times by the Mets' Foley artist this evening.

And have almost turned several GiDPs

And have almost not walked multiple LAD batters.

The Mike Torrez 10-Walk Tribute probably isn't a great idea.

[Lefty Specialist]

We now return to your shitty season, which is already in progress......

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

More like Tommy FHaM, amirite?!

[Frayed Knot]

So after Nimmo's leadoff 2B was briefly called a HR, who'd have thought that the top NYM offensive highlight for the rest of the night would be a catcher's interference call?

[Edgy MD]

Inauspicious.

The six game win streak feels like a long time ago



Maybe they are just flat out lousy

[Edgy MD]

I don't think they are lousy. I think they've trapped themselves into a counterproductive philosophical approach.

[ashie62]

They are their record

[Edgy MD]

I refuse to be a fatalist. I don't know why anybody would. None of us are our record. For everybody, there's a corner waiting to be turned, a hatch waiting to be opened, a friend waiting to join a cause, a new approach to an old problem, and a voice of salvation cackling through the static of an AM radio.

[ashie62]

I understand that point of view. Obviously I'm not that "some" of time



I'm looking at the Mets needing to go 48-23 to get to 90 wins



I see that as a longshot at best



Then again, it's has happened before for many teams and am using that to hold out hope
