BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
We lost. I'm not really sad, just dumfounded.

It's the freakin Phils. We whipped em all year. Gah!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Give me a sandwich, or a salad, or, hell, an empanada or dumpling plate. 'Cause, Lordy, am I not a big Soup fan.

Well, they have a short trip home and then a nice dinner and early
to bed and let's get that out of our system for the weekend. Capacity
crowds expected for three games and it's time to send off the rest
of the season with a KABOOM!!

Boy, I go away for a couple of hours and I come back to this? Sheeznits.

This series would have sucked less if we could brush it off as one that totally didn't matter instead of just only partially not mattering.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

MLB suspended Robles for that pitch up near Rupp's face. Looked to me more like a pitch gone horribly wrong than a purpose pitch but whatevs.

[Guest d'Kong76]

I thought they pretty much said it was a hard breaking ball
that just didn't break.

Four weeks ago, if we were told that the Mets would be swept by the Phillies just before the final series against the Nationals, we would have thought we were doomed.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

Not even, a week ago.

Todays lineup seemed like another celebration lineup. Aren't we competing with the Dodgers?

[Frayed Knot]

It was a noon start on the heels of a 4-hour late-night marathon, in the rain and against a bottom-feeder in a division already clinched.
I had no problem with his lineup today.

This made me laugh. And that's a good thing.

Robles getting suspended is a bunch of bullshit.

1) It wasn't intentional
2) He didn't even hit the guy.
3) If it was intentional it was perfect and...it didn't hit him.
4) If we were gonna hit someone in retaliation it wouldn't be Cameron Rupp! He's as easy K.
