GDT: 2024 Regular Season Thread

[GKJ]

So if the Mets lose tomorrow or Monday afternoon, they may not play the second game on Monday

I am going to guess Atlanta will save Sale for the first game on Monday. Sale against a Mets offense that’s ice cold

Do the Mets still have the best record in baseball since May 30?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Padres with 2 homers take a 3-0 lead in the 9th.

Mets are very much alive. Very real scenario right now is the Braves have nothing to play for on Monday and it means everything for the Mets.

Snakes are bottling.

In the back of my mind, it’s asking for trouble, but I’d like to see a Mets/Phillies playoff series since there’s never been one. Not sure I want it at the expense of the Brewers or Padres though.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

Padres win 5-0.

And somehow, the Mets (Braves, too) can clinch tomorrow with a win and a DBacks loss.\

EDIT: Make that a win or a DBacks loss for the Braves.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Padres win.

The easiest way to sum up this 3 team situation:

Braves magic number is 1.

Mets magic number is 2.

Diamondbacks magic number is 2...but they only have 1 game that they can control the outcome of. They need help.

Dodgers and Phillies get the bye weeks.

Sale on 10 days rest who the hell knows what you’re getting. He’s had one start in his career where injury wasn’t a factor and he was off 8 days and he allowed 9 runs in 2.2 innings.

The Mets have to hope Atlanta wins today if they win and Arizona also does. That would basically guarantee they are in. I can’t see Atlanta really caring about game 2 of the DH, and they’d have a tough call to make on game 1, do you try to win it? I think you prefer to play Milwaukee and travel less and just lose both games
