  1. Lugo can go 50 pitches? Fine, but he needs to be sharp if he's going that long. He was obviously not sharp in the 7th, and when he gave up a hit starting the 8th after a long, long at-bat which featured foul after foul after foul, that was a signal that he wasn't on point. It happens; sometimes it's just not your day. But no. Mickey left him in, and what happened was almost inevitable. I've seen this movie too many times this year. Losing his temper in the clubhouse was just a capper.
  2. This one's on Mickey. Pure and simple.
  3. Okay, ALMOST everyone. 😊
  4. 6.75 ERA and a 1.875 WHIP. He could have been worse. He could have spontaneously burst into flames on the mound, for instance. One of these guys whose name will come up in a couple of years and everyone will have forgotten he was ever a Met.
  5. I'm beginning to see myself disengaging from this team. It's a process that's fairly frequent. They tease for a while then settle into the doldrums of less-than-mediocre. Seems to be happening again.
  6. Phil Regan is 82 years old. Just saying.
  7. Haha. Genius. Loved the end.
  8. Hank Aaron Sele. Hank Aaron Altherr
  9. If Lowrie were here, they'd still be 34-38.
  10. =ashie62 post_id=13291 time=1560823161 user_id=90] If a Braves sweep cans Mickey I'm ok with that
  11. =Ceetar post_id=13229 time=1560793943 user_id=102] They're sweeping this series. I have no doubt.
  12. Flexen is an AAAA player. He's had plenty of chances and has never proved he's anything more than that. Next.
  13. Yes, our bullpen has issues. Other teams having issues doesn't matter. Good teams overcome those issues. The Mets are not a good team.
  14. =Fman99 post_id=13031 time=1560597390 user_id=86] I apologized to my son last night for bestowing this particular team's fandom upon him. I felt like it was that kind of game.
  15. I think tonight I'll watch something less depressing and error-filled, with fewer catastrophic decisions than the Mets. https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pAav_tJLlZo/XL-lz5XR_eI/AAAAAAADBX8/Rr5FV_-6fkkgLkOM56TWpH88Fw7HHpPMQCLcBGAs/s1600/Chernobyl%2Bhbo%2Bminiseries%2Bbillboard.jpg>
  16. Benjamin Grimm wrote: Maybe that was a passive-aggressive statement suggesting that he's somewhat disconnected from his family life. Nah, passive-aggressive would be an asterisk on the 3rd. Or like, if it said this is OUR 3rd child. Well, it could be THEIR second child and he had one out of wedlock with a stewardess or something. Just speculating.
  17. He's become a habituated Met, as adept as all the others at irritating the hell out of me.
  18. Ay Caramba. Wheels falling off. Well at least now I can get back to work.
  19. I turned it off when Mickey came out and Syndergaard said, "Are you fucking kidding me?" Because there's nothing smarter than giving this bullpen EXTRA outs to get. Mickey's got to go. I don't care if he's replaced by Riggleman or Dusty Baker or the ghost of Salty Parker or a toaster. He's gotta go. I imagine Noah would like to pull his scraggly beard out hair by hair right about now.
  20. The Mets have played simply awful baseball lately, and yet they're only 4 1/2 games out of first. The slightest glimmer of competence and they could be contending. So I expect they'll tank it against the Giants and Rockies, because that's how they roll.
  21. Maybe the Mets can trademark "Tom Brady is an Asshole."
  22. In retrospect, Willie, Mickey and the Duke did not move over. Looks like Straw is holding an eggplant.
  23. Screw him and the supermodel he rode in on.
  24. I'll miss that picture of Nancy. It was like she was thinking about Tom's hard slider.
