IGT 9/30/2024-2: NYM@ATL — No More (But More)

[G-Fafif]

From our playoff-bound Golden Boys to the Braves on the brink of elimination:

Well, you had your way -- No more. Well, it ain't your day No more. Yes, I'm standin' up, I ain't on the floor, I ain't bowin' down No more.

Somebody'll pitch for us soon.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I want this game even more than the last one if that's possible

[metsmarathon]

this game. also a blessing. lets go for the sweep. but like, without trying too hard for it, if at all possible.

[Cowtipper]

A win here makes the Mets a 90-win team. You know what happened the last time a Mets team won exactly 90 games? They went to the World Series.

[G-Fafif]

Lucchesi starts Game Two. From Mets PR:

LHP Joey Lucchesi has been selected to the Major League roster and will start game two. RHP Christian Scott has been transferred to the 60-day IL. LHP Alex Young has been optioned to Triple-A Syracuse.

Braves are going to have to use Sale with everything on the line, I think.

Wanna win.

Wanna knock out ATL.

But I'm having a hard time grasping that another game is going on right now.

[Cowtipper]

Winker did enough to engrain himself in Mets history earlier in the season with that killer walk-off he had against Baltimore on August 21. It was that exact moment that the Mets became a playoff team in my eyes.

[Edgy MD]

I've got to believe Winker is running on some rusty springs right now.



Another possibility is that they want Alonso to get his 162nd game checked off, but Winker will replace him mid-game.

G. Holmes is pitching instead of Sale? If the Mets pound this guy Braves fans will be so pissed.

[Edgy MD]

Bob Alpacadaca wrote: No Sale? Wow.

I'm thinking that maybe Holmes is an opener and we see Sale in the third.

[Cowtipper]

Holmes signed an autograph through the Las Vegas Aviators for me in 2021.

[Benjamin Grimm]

SNY just had a graphic that said the Padres swept the Mets in three games in the 2022 Wild Card series.



Geez, SNY. Get your heads out of your asses.

[Fman99]

Like seeing Lou Cheesy out there on the bump.



I kind of like the MIL matchup better than SD but boy It'd be sweet to put the Braves' season to bed here.

[Fman99]

Clay Holmes rivaling Ryan Stanek for the "Guy on Crank look" award

[metirish]

Let's goooooo, would love to knock the Braves out

[metirish]

[Chad ochoseis]

Holmes can pitch a perfect game today. I'm good with that.

I'm not.





BTW - when is Alonso going to grow a pair?

Later

Keith absolutely loves Iglesias

[Bob Alpacadaca]

I suspect Lucchesi will be out there for as long as his arm is still attached to give everyone else a little rest.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

The Braves seem to use that siren when the other team is having a mound conference.

[Cowtipper]

Now they got something cooking...again. Let's score 10.
