  1. What's the record for most consecutive singles to begin a game?
  2.

Of course it matters. It matters a whole lot. That's the whole fucking point of the DH, to give guys who need a rest the chance to bat anyway. Of course it gives Raleigh a tremendous edge over guys who had to catch every day.
  3. And Tong has been all over the place. First game great, next game ok, third game terrible. What is he, like 22 years old or something? Get it together, man!
  4. 187 guests!!! Who invited these fucking people?
  5. I couldn't watch. When they scored two, I shut the set off. I'm not squeamish, but I just couldn't take another day. I took a nap instead, and woke up to discover that you guys had good news to report.
  6. Well, you gotta figure one of the chief attractions to the Mets for Pete is it gives him a good shot at a championship, and a great shot at making the playoffs. Now? "Screw that, I'm SO out of here!"
  7. Will 2 runs hold up?
  8. I read that never before has a team gone 4-0 in the first inning then gone hitless for the rest of the game. Don't know if it's true, but I believe it. First time in 249 years a team has screwed that particular pooch.
  9. Betting Mets fans in Mid-June that they'd end up out of the playoffs? How much? Please remember to show your work.
  10. I can't look anymore. It's like watching a multi-decapitation car-crash with heads rolling all across the highway.
  11. They're gonna have the guts to show their faces in 2026?
  12. The Hot Corner wrote: He is sporting a 8.49 ERA through 11.2 innings over his 3 starts. He likely was promoted too soon out of desperation and necessity. Mighty different from that 1.80 after start #1. Funny thing (ok--not so funny) was I thought when he had men on first and third and two outs, "Cool. He gets this next guy Burger to pop up or strike out, and he's out of the jam," and the floodgates opened. So near and yet so far.
  13. Fluffed up the kid's ERA some, I'm guessing.
  14. Perfect example of his hard luck is running Mauricio the other night, neither fast nor smart, when he had Siri coming off the IL the next day (and he'd already used Acuna). If he coulda put in Siri, maybe that run would have tied up the 1-0 game, but Siri wouldn't be activated for another few hours.
  15. Shit. I was looking forward to watching a ballgame tonight, not a slaughter.
  16. OK, that explains from this June going forward. Now try last June going backward. Completely different set of problems, requiring a whole different set of rational excuses.
  17. Luck comes in streaks sometimes? This is consistent as an explanation. They are very lucky and very unlucky. Makes more sense to me than "They're good at playing baseball then they forget how to play baseball."
  18. From June to June, specifically from last June 13th through this June 12th, the Mets had a won- lost record of 104 wins and 60 losses. How is it possible for one team to be so dominant over what is more than a complete season and be so utterly inept in the remaining games?? Same team, same manager, same approach. Are they just ****ing with our heads? Mine is about ready to essplode
  19. Will the Mets finally score enough runs (0) to allow deGrom to win a game?
  20. Let me guess--you've never seen "Saving Private Ryan," right?
  21. What is fubar? F**ked Up Beyond All Recognition Later I looked up "fubar" in the German dictionary and there's no fubar in here.
  22. Waste of my ****ing time. Just once, I'd like the interviewer to respond to " We're better than this" with "No, you ****ing suck."
  23. When they lose the interview goes like this: gotta execute better, gotta wait for our pitch, gotta get more quality swings. And when they win, it's : we're executing, not swinging at bad pitches, getting some quality swings.... . Why do they bother giving interviews if all they're gonna say is this canned B S?
  24. I didn't see the play.. How did Bader take 3b on a grounder to 3B?
  25. CF for Mets' manager TODAY!!!
