The Official 2024 NY Mets Thread

[Deepster]

So, if we continued to win and proceed potentially it would look like:

In Milwaukee Thurs (no game)-Fri-Sat-Sun
In Atlanta Monday for a double header
In San Diego for games Tues-Wed-Thurs
Off day Friday
In Philly for the NLDS, Sat-Sun then back home for Game 3, Monday October 7th

10 straight road games over 10 days in 4 different cities in 4 corners of the US - Milwaukee to Atlanta to San Diego to Philadelphia....to head back to LA potentially. That's insurmountable. The packing and unpacking and plane travel and visitor facilities and disruption of routines. I'm pretty logical and realistic and that seems impossible.

I hate being a Mets fan.

I was literally driving by Citifield on the Van Wyck last night when Lindor drew the lead off walk. Thought it was a message from G-d. Game was turned off before I got on the BQE

Party like it's 1998 :headbang:

Great time for the bats to sh,,, the bed.
The collapse is in gear. Sad. Braves don’t lose when it counts. You can just feel we will be the odd team out of this 3 team race.

They're not playing well, but they still control their own destiny and I like their chances

1 win on Mon and we're in.

Nice win today. Lindor was vintage. Home run. 2 RBIs. 2 stolen bases. Peterson has quietly proven himself this year. And now we just need to get 1 tomorrow. Ideally 2 and keep Atlanta out.

Strong disagree on the last sentence, win the 1st game and then play every backup and guy who's not making the playoff roster game 2

I will not sleep a wink tonight knowing Tylor Megill is toeing the rubber with our season on the line.

I’m not sure what is worse, how I feel as a Met fan going into tomorrow or how I’d feel as a diamondbacks fan.

We can play every back up on the team - I still would love to take 2 and keep Atlanta out.

I trust him more than Severino.
Do you trust PeteyBear in a clutch scenario? Can I get you to agree he is useless?

Ugh. I am at the point where I can’t argue for signing him anymore. Watching him whiff on sliders in big spots is eating a hole in my brain.

Damn, impressive 8th inning for Mets after Schwellenbach shut them down for 7 dominating innings.

Hope Mets pen can hold on.

5 Minutes Later: nevermind.

Another 5 Minutes Later: Hope Mets pen can hold on, again.

Going Stanek though? UGH.

 

[FanInNC]

Personally I didn't love Diaz pitching yesterday up 5-0. He threw nearly 30 pitches, then we ask him to come in and get 5 outs today? That was not a good recipe there. But regardless of the set up, Diaz failed to cover first! I mean, hard to feel bad for him when that happens.

 

[FanInNC]

Ok starting with Diaz...Stanek on deck, which I dont love.

 

[HCCForever]

Mets make it to the playoffs with 8-7 win. I have no skin in the game but wild game to watch as Atlanta was up 3-0. Then the wild 8th inning. Fun game to watch.

 

[Deepster]

What a gutsy game. Wow.

I believe in Grimace.
