Sympathy time is over, kids. Let's just win these rest of these fuckers and not have to worry about anything else.

Send that to Terry to tell the team before the game. Better yet, Cabrera can tell them.

Biggest game in the history of biggest games! Huge! I have ants on the
ants in my pants. #lgm #ygb #crcema #kik

Terry in the postgame paid respect and homage to the occasion last night but reading not too deep between the lines, he basically said, "enough of this." I don't know if they'll win, but I think they'll be, per Keith, on point.

Not for nothing, a good chunk of that last night was TC's fault when he let Bartolo bat even though he was throwing batting practice out there.

Good news is that Tom "Stupid Guy" Koehler is on the hill, he's usually not smart enough to defeat the Mets.

I am also not for nothing if we're talking about the Mets scoring.

Yup. Another instance of the booth being able to see things long before Terry.

Literally EVERYONE saw that before Terry. Donald Trump on the debate was like "Bartolo Colon hit for himself? Sad!"

STOP GIVING UP EARLY LEADS DICKHEADS.

[Guest themetfairy]

Miracles happen - Jay Bruce homered!

[Guest d'Kong76]

Man, if we can get some more of THAT Bruce this week...

[Guest themetfairy]

If you want to use your challenge, then use your challenge Mattingly. But enough with this bullshit of trying to get your challenge in without actually having to use it. Asshole!

[Benjamin Grimm]

The foul ball isn't challengable, if that's a word.

But asshole is a word. And MF used it appropriately to describe Mattingly.

[Lefty Specialist]

Whoa. That was a long fucking home run by Cespy.

[Guest themetfairy]

La Potencia!

[Benjamin Grimm]

This is the kind of stuff we need.

[Chad ochoseis]

I'm TJ Rivera. Wind me up and watch me hit solid line drives to right center.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I keep hoping that Gary shares some anecdotes about how stupid Tom Koehler is.

Has he hit enough to be the 2B next year?

[Frayed Knot]

So is any active pitcher (he says while looking in Grimm's direction) even close to Tom Kohler in starts vs the Mets?
Tonight is 21st game vs the Mets and his 18th start. Even the other NL East squads aren't all that close WAS (13), PHI (14) and ATL (12) so it just seems that his starts line up against ours each time the teams meet.

I figure if anyone has more it would have to be an older pitcher (Kohler just turned 30 this year) but there's no one currently in the NL East with that long a career under his belt and the unbalanced schedule wouldn't give out of division guys that many chances.

Not yet, but he's a strong candidate to be the Next Wilmer Flores.

There's never been a dumber opponent, I know that.
