OT: 2022 MLB Thread

[Clam Jensen]

Does anyone know of a baseball site that’s equivalent to hf boards? Or a football site,

I honestly just use Reddit for everything besides the Devils, though it’s not so much for commenting and more for staying up to date on team news. NYYFansForum is pretty good for Yankees stuff too, though it’s mostly just a group of really old dudes who complain about everything.

I need Jomboy video of this shit

His breakdown of the Tigers pitcher tipping was incredible.

This Mets team is pretty impressive. Also way more likable then the Dodgers

Best booth in baseball

Smoltz is such a salty bitch when he has to do a Yankee game

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Braves with 11 in a row.

I can't wait for deGrom and Sherzer to come back only to have one of them get knocked out with a season ending shot to the head and the other to snap his femur celebrating in a pile at home plate.

I'll bet anything the Mets will be 5 games back by mid-August at the latest.

Thanks dad.

I mean Braves won 12 in a row, 13 tonight most likely, and are still 5 games back.

Mets currently have the 2nd best run differential in the NL too

Still have the best record in the NL too, which will remain unchanged assuming they hold on and win tonight

I read 11 when I posted it, my bad.

I bet it will continue to be that way through early-mid July

I appreciate the vote of confidence from a passionate Yankees fan, but that train falling off the rails is never late for those of us who've been taking the 7 to Flushing for decades.

I don't think this'll be a Met choke...they have a professional manager and are run professionally from ownership on down for the first time in at least thirty-five years. They do have a talented roster, albeit a lot of these guys are older and capable of taking IL vacations.

Does that mean I think they'll win the division not necessarily, the Braves are good and they're f***ing cockroaches that won't get stomped on. Plus nobody still ever picks them to win, which is dangerous for a team that has a winning tradition now. But I think they'll be in the playoffs at least and with the pitching staff they have, they should be able to win any short series unless both Jake and Max are on hiatus still in October.

You know better than to bet against this.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Idk this Mets team seems more competent and talented then past teams

All this with not just the two best pitchers on their team out but arguably the two best pitchers in all of baseball.

 

[NJDevs26]

Yeah last year the Mets collapsed the minute Jake got hurt. He hasn’t pitched an inning this year and they were without Max the last few weeks too and have still rolled along with guys like Bassitt and Carrasco pinching in, with all sorts of insane comebacks. That doesn’t scream inevitable collapse, maybe they’ll break our heart like in 2006, but this is the first time since 2006-07 that I’m reasonably confident in there being October baseball before September. 2015 they were squandering everything before the deadline, 2016 they puttered around before getting hot late.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Aren't they in a tough stretch of games right now too?

Idk I would be really annoyed as a Braves fan that my team won 12 in a row only to still be 5 games out of first.

This team can hit too

 

[NJDevs26]

Yeah the Mets just came back from a ten-game West Coast trip and get the Brewers (albeit a struggling Brewer team atm) in their return home. Going 5-5 was pretty well par for the course but the Braves going 10-0 was annoying and cut into the lead, though not as much as it could have been cut into considering.

They were crushed last night, Atlanta now 4 games back with nearly 100 to go.

 

[youryeah]

braves are on an absolute heater but they've really played shit teams during their win streak. it's impressive, nonetheless. still confident in this mets team to be there at the end as long as they get a good second half out of degrom and scherzer. bullpen reinforcements at (or before) the trade deadline are necessary imo.

 

[My3Sons]

The Yankees pitching still seems a bit surreal to me.

 

[Jack Be Quick]

Judge made 10 million last year, is making 17 this season, he's on pace to smash Maris' single season record, and the Yankees are taking him to arbitration?

See you in LA, Queens, or Boston buddy.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Where are those good teams?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Atlanta finally lost
