OT: MLB Thread XLVIII

[RangerBlues]

Seattle arms had the yanks twisted into knots all day.
That would not be a fun team to have to play in a on and done

 

[Bob Richards]

Could see it coming a mile away and it still sucks lol.

This has been one of the worst offensive seasons in franchise history which would have been mind boggling to think at the beginning of the season.

I've been saying since the start of the season that at some point it'll turn around and it's gotta. We know Michael Conforto isn't a 200 hitter. But at the same time, by the time it turns around the season may be over.

Pitching carried them the entire 1st half and bought time until the team got healthy but the offense hasn't picked up their end of the bargain. Now that they've hit a rough patch of sorts with the pitching (which all things considering isn't even horrid as many of these games are still winnable even despite the rough patch), the offense is still MIA.

On paper, the Mets offense should be much better. Hugh Quattlebaum can go, and he can take the Mets fitness coach with him.

And don't forget to take the medical staff with you!!!

This is a contract year for him. If he was hitting 280 with 25 homers we'd be expecting he'd sign long term for 25+. He turns 29 next season. This is what he is. I'm not resigning him period.

Me? What ya mean? Or Russell Crowe? lol

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

How the **c* do you blow FOUR saves in one game? How the **c* do you still win?

 

[17futurecap]

Easiest win of the season

 

[Machinehead]

f*** that game LMAO

 

[sbjnyc]

This stat is mind-blowing.

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Mets bats like the rain!

 

[Kocur26]

Stanton is a disgrace to the uniform .
His swings are tee ball laughable ; jeter must wake up daily smiling @ that clown cashman.

The same clown that stuck us with the albatross of Aaron Hicks 10 year deal .
The same clown whose gone 3 years minus lefty power in Yankee stadium.

Joey Gallo is horrendous- great Glove , athletic but man is he brutal @ the plate.

We scored 13 runs vs Seattle and are rolling in the mud w the 63 loss Royals.

big chance dropped tonite to gain on Boston

 

[Ruggs225]

This stat is mind-blowing.

he also had a strike zone that went 3 inches off the plate.

but seriously, that is ridiculous.

The strike zone might have been wider across the plate but only went from the top of the knees to the belt.

 

[17futurecap]

9 of 10 series wins, nice

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

10-3 last 13

somehow..

 

[Kocur26]

Good win - get outta dodge - somehow , someway we are rolling around in the mud with 60 loss teams .

DJ is coming around - Gio needed back @
3b greatly .

Tyler Wade actually hitting

And big ups to the Bronx kid Velasquez

 

[JimmyG89]

Mets finally did what they were supposed to do and sweep a bad team. Almost gave it away, but got it done.

Turned on FOX for the Yankee game and this stadium looks amazing. MLB has in their hands their own version of the winter classic. Needs to be a yearly thing to play games in these kind of settings.

[ThirdEye]

Chicago about to have their second batting practice against Heaney

 

[Guyute]

Heany sucks and Gallo only strikes out

Typical Brian Cashman
