  1. This feels like a big win, doesn't it?
  2. And there it is. I was trying to trick Pete into hitting a three-run homer, but he didn't go for it.
  3. Remember all that talk about how Soto has a potbelly and lost his bat speed?
  4. First and third nobody out for Pete. Again, I'd be quite happy with a sac fly.
  5. It's certainly boosted my confidence in him.
  6. I certainly hope they do. Unless the Mets put up a big inning here, then maybe I'd reconsider. Maybe. Leadoff double for Soto.
  7. And I was rooting for a sac fly!
  8. Keep pouring it on, guys. We can't assume a four-run lead is safe.
  9. Also, number 263. If he comes back next year (and I hope he does!) 300 will be within reach.
  10. With the runner going, when that ball went over Nimmo's head I was sure it was going to score a run. But instead it turned into an out!

  12. But I'm sure that part of that 99.4% has them in the third slot, behind the Mets.
  13. We'll be in the rare position of rooting for the Phillies this weekend, as they'll be in Phoenix playing the Diamondbacks.
  14. Giants have scored three in the 11th,still nobody out
  15. Giants and Arizona still scoreless through four.
  16. How does FanGraphs determine the odds? Baseball Reference does 1,000 simulations. Their odds also favor the Mets, but not as heavily. Mets 66.7 Arizona 23.1 Cincinnati 6.3 Giants 4.7 St. Louis 0.2

  18. Last night, the Mets beat the Padres, the Cardinals defeated the Reds, and the Diamondbacks won their game against the Giants. Mets Magic Number by team: Arizona Diamondbacks 10 (possibly 9 based on extended tiebreaker rules) Cincinnati Reds 9 San Francisco Giants 8 St. Louis Cardinals 6 The Mets hold the tie-breaker advantage over the Giants and Cardinals. The Reds have the advantage over the Mets The Mets/Diamondbacks tiebreaker is still TBD, but Arizona currently has the lead. Here's how it shakes out: The Mets are 23-23 against teams in their division. (Braves 5-8, Phillies 7-6, Marlins 5-5, Nationals 6-4). The Diamondbacks are 25-20 (Dodgers 5-5, Giants 7-5, Padres 5-5, Rockies 8-5). The Mets have six more games against division foes, three each against Miami and Washington. The Diamondbacks have seven, one against the Giants and three each against the Dodgers and Padres.
  19. Last night, the Reds beat the Cardinals and the Diamondbacks defeated the Giants. The magic number over St. Louis and San Francisco thereby drop by one each. Mets Magic Number by team: Cincinnati Reds 11 Arizona Diamondbacks 11 (possibly 10 based on extended tiebreaker rules) San Francisco Giants 10 St. Louis Cardinals 7 The Mets hold the tie-breaker advantage over the Giants and Cardinals. The Reds have the advantage over the Mets The Mets/Diamondbacks tiebreaker is still TBD, but Arizona currently has the lead. Here's how it shakes out: The Mets are 23-23 against teams in their division. (Braves 5-8, Phillies 7-6, Marlins 5-5, Nationals 6-4). The Diamondbacks are 24-20 (Dodgers 5-5, Giants 6-5, Padres 5-5, Rockies 8-5). The Mets have six more games against division foes, three each against Miami and Washington. The Diamondbacks have eight, two against the Giants and three each against the Dodgers and Padres.
  20. I'd give Holmes four innings, unless trouble strikes earlier than that.
  21. I wonder how that's going to work? Does Holmes get four innings and he's out, no matter how well he's doing? Or does Manaea come in whenever Holmes starts to falter, whether in the third or the sixth?
  22. http://potg.leaptoad.com/mets/images/warning.gif> http://potg.leaptoad.com/mets/Cast your votes now! Voting for all games played through September 14, the series against the Rangers at Citi Field, will close on Tuesday, September 23. If there are any games that you haven't yet voted for, and intend to, please try to do so during the next seven days.
  23. I hope that's accurate, but it doesn't feel like it. I think there's a decent enough likelihood that one of those three teams (Giants, Reds, Diamondbacks) will win two or more games than the Mets do the rest of the way.
  24. Let's see if this helps. This should kick in by tomorrow. I enabled the domain to go through Cloudflare:
  25. The Giants play the Diamondbacks tonight, so at least one of the magic numbers will go down. Not sure who to root for, however. You could argue the Giants, because the Mets definitely have the tiebreaker against them. And a Giants win could help the Mets get the tiebreaker over Arizona as well, since a loss by the Diamondbacks would affect their intra-division record.
