I thought it was Mr. Goldfinger.

That doesn't sound good. Sounds like something that could affect him for years to come.
-
I imagine there would be quite an uproar if the Nationals manager left Scherzer on the mound long enough to give up 150 earned runs! But yeah, I suppose it might happen.
-
That might be a bit much. Maybe they should shoot for 8.00 instead.
-
So how many runs do the Mets have to score tonight to get Scherzer's ERA over 9.00?
-
For the 92 catcher, how about Sandy Alomar Jr.?

That picture is probably less grating when its turn comes around on a Mets win.

And now a word from John Smoltz

Watching them float would certainly be entertaining! -

It would have erased the Mets' June, which would have been nice. -

Smoltz wants to eliminate the shift (“I think it’s single-handedly killing the game), curtail the relentless use of relievers, stop the exploitation of the disabled list, but most of all, revolutionize the schedule. Smoltz proposes that MLB adopt a split-season schedule, just as they do in the minor leagues, in a move that he believes will create dramatic division races again, reduce the number of teams tanking for draft picks, and make baseball great again in September. Full article: Hall of Famer John Smoltz says MLB needs an overhaul and proposes drastic changes I'm not sure what he means about the exploitation of the disabled list. But doing something about the relentless use of relievers sounds appealing. I can't say I like the idea of a split schedule. The first-half winner could have a significantly different roster by the time October comes.

DeGrom received 30 of 33 first place votes in MLB.com's poll, with Max Scherzer of the Nationals receiving the other three first place votes. When it came to point total, deGrom received 153, Scherzer received 101, and Aaron Nola of the Phillies received 63.

Well, it hasn't "mattered" for about three or four months.

Another way of looking at this is, why did things go so badly so suddenly after 1999/2000 and 2015/2016? One thing I remember noticing was that the 2015 team was young, exciting, and mostly homegrown. The team that played that Wild Card Game in 2016 were a bunch of veteran players from other organizations. It's almost as if the Mets made a conscious decision to get old in a hurry. I know a lot of it was reactions to injuries, but the team did seem to turn over in a hurry.
-
And, at this point anyway, deGrom should get more than Syndergaard.
-
How about Conforto and Nimmo. Not sure if Alfonso was more than 25 years ago...
