[The Hot Corner]

Hopefully, the Mets can continue their post-trade deadline hot streak.

[Centerfield]

Not for nothing, after generations of getting our asses kicked in Atlanta, it would be nice for this crew to create some new history.  One of the benefits of the David Stearns turnover is that none of these guys have the demons from prior Mets teams.

Let's create a new generation of Mets that regularly kicks Atlanta's ass.

I wouldn't have even thought about challenging that play on Benge at first.  Very surprised to see it overturned.

[Edgy MD]

Youse are missing a game.

Like, a gamey game.

[Centerfield]

Just turned it on. No one say anything. 

[Edgy MD]

Too late.  It broke.

[Edgy MD]

First and third for Benji.  Here's a potential TPotG.

[Edgy MD]

Benji does that thing that Alvarez likes to do with first and third and one out.

[Edgy MD]

Gosh, Acuña's legs are shot.

[Edgy MD]

Eighty-five pitches and the day is done for McBain.

[Edgy MD]

Yanni is all over the place.

The pitch locations are spilling out like candy from a piñata.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Rooting for a whiff here

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Alvy wants the strikeout too

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It turns out Yan can't cook.

[Lefty Specialist]

Jefry Yan no longer amuses me.

You're not jumping to conclusions, are you?

[Edgy MD]

Robert showing a deeply wanting arm this inning, but the range going back is still there.

[Edgy MD]

Some o' that offense would be nice before the next inning ends the game.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

This guy puts the "ace" in Chayce

[Fman99]

This is my fault.  Now that I'm watching them they're bats have shriveled up like summer pool wieners 

[Fman99]

And..... that's it for me kids 

[Frayed Knot]

And that just about puts the end to this party.

Summer pool wieners are the best.

[Edgy MD]

Tomahawk chant happening.

[Edgy MD]

Let's fix Iglesias wagon here.

[Centerfield]

Wins and losses don’t matter. McLean being good matters. 
 

FMan making an appearance also significant.
