  1. Degrom is pretty good, I think
  2. Yeah Sandy criticizing the media just for asking is a really bad look.

Jackson shut out the Phillies in the opener, while Jackson pitched into the fifth in the nightcap, giving up six runs in a 10-2 loss. It was his last major league start. On August 17, 1980, Ray Burris and Roy Lee Jackson did it, as the Mets were swept by the Phillies. That may be it. If so, the only three times it's happened have been against the Phillies. We've been swept and split. It's time for a sweep of our own. This was a great find. Also notable, this week we had to have seen the greatest spread between starting pitcher uni-numbers in Mets DH history 0 & 99. Anyone know where I can find the Mets all-time record in DHs? I think things are complicated today as split DHs aren't really considered DHs anymore
  4. I'm about 3 miles from Shea and it's a light but steady rain for the last 45 minutes
  5. Well this one couldn't have been more of what the doctor ordered. McCann hit, Peterson rebounded, we cashed in a few, we out-executed them.very enouraging result after a pretty ugly start to the year.
  6. Would be nice here if Mccann would begin earning his $$
  7. Sabermetics: Zach Wheeler was the Tuesday Night Mets Club Cy Young Award winner in 2019, for best performance on Tuesday nights at Citifield. The issue vexing the Phillies analytics and coaching staff is carrying that success over to Wednesdays.
  8. Vasgersian: the ointment to help you feel fresh all day
  9. I'm not against experimenting, and if you do it may as well be in the minors. I think we all would have preferred that extra inning rules and 3-batter minimums and the like we're confined before shoved at us. I'll also go as far to say that games are too long now and I might prefer adjustments to the pitching lane to say, reducing the number of foul balls or balls per walk or whatever
  10. I'm declaring this one a Big Game: Series on the line, a seeming pitching mismatch we need to win back to overcome the OD debacle, and demonstrate we know what to do with the little momentum we generated in the semi-fraudulent sweep yesterday. Plus, Petey needs to sing for his supper, Wheelie before live fans at Citi for the first time, Lindor, Conforto and Alonso facing the kinda guy they need to hit. IT'S ALL ON THE LINE TONIGHT!!!!!
  11. Well I don't like this pitching change
  12. We should have a derby where we bracket these up and the worse one advances culminating in the world series of shoddy Mets podcasts
  13. Let's knock this fake Cy Young off the mound NOW
  14. How about this bottom third folks? Now Stro with em loaded
  15. I'm quite satisfied with the double-brother starting pitching duo today. If we ever hit we might start winning some
  16. Just heard. Ed Coleman is not up to extra inning drama, even in the 8th
