GDT: 2024 Regular Season Thread

[southsideIrish]

I'm not sure why the Mets don't just option one of their postseason ineligible players to AAA for an arm. Who is Atlanta gonna start in game 2 if they win game 1? Obviously not Sale. If you're the Mets you just go with Megill in game 1 and then just brutalize 2 long men BP arms in game 2 for like 4-5 a piece. Chances are very high this is gonna be a split with game 2 not being close at all. Could see like a 13-2 win for whoever loses game 1

It's going to be Sale - they've been holding him for a must win pre-playoff game, or Game 1 of the first round.

I work in the Galleria area directly across from Truist Park - traffic will be fun tomorrow lol.

He was bad this year and just turned 37. Would have took him back on a 1 year deal, but no more than that, so this is the right move. Just go with a Burleson/Baker platoon at 1B next year.

They should trade Helsley too while his values the highest.

Can the Mets and the Braves agree to split the 2 games to ensure both team are in? Some kind of a gentleman's agreement?

Whoever wins game 1 is resting everyone game 2, if the team that has to win to get in cant beat the backups and back of the bullpen they dont deserve to get in.

That’s more true for Atlanta as the Mets aren’t currently carrying a respectable arm who can go 5-6-7 innings in game 2 if they win game 1. Atlanta has Elder who on the right day can be pretty much unhittable, that said he’s on 8 days rest from the minors but he’s better than anything the Mets can throw
