OT: MLB Talk

[BelovedIsles]

These Braves remind me of the 90's Braves. Dominance, and without two of their best starters.

Now that my baseball season is over....4 mons til puck drop

 

[Osakahaus]

There are baseball rosters who are insanely better with the same exact payroll as Scherzer and Verlander btw.

 

[Glory Days]

Baseball season is over. What a waste of a payroll. Anyone know when Jets open camp?

Aaron Rodgers is Justin Verlander

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

Aaron Rodgers is Justin Verlander

WTF man

 

[Glory Days]

Aaron Rodgers is Justin Verlander

Let’s hope not

 

[Osakahaus]

Aaron Rodgers is Justin Verlander

I will break into your house if that happens

 

[MJF]

The Mets are going nowhere fast.

 

[Glory Days]

The Mets are going nowhere fast.

I don’t know why I still watch. I feel like the driver who has to look at the accident on the side of the road.

 

[Osakahaus]

they're not gonna go anywhere until they actually send their old man to the retirement home. At least Lamoriello hasn't been ALL bad

I'm not surprised the old starters didn't work. I'm also not surprised that the Diaz injury killed the bullpen. Lindor is the mystery for me... He's fallen off a cliff, strikes out a ton, but still seems to have his athleticism. What's going on there other than hitting is really difficult.

It's hard to see the Mets rounding out enough pitching internally to contend in the next few years without making some big moves.

Sorta OT because not MLB, but is anyone catching any of the College World Series? I saw the Wake-LSU game last night and it was great.

 

[MJF]

Eppler should send the entire Mets bullpen down to Syracuse.

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Could be difficulty adjusting to the new rules? He's getting his numbers, but that avg is down and so's are up. Might be a mental thing as he seems to go up and down over long stretches.

 

[Lights911]

Can Eppler go with them?

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

We're done right? @Lame Lambert

 

[Glory Days]

We're done right? @Lame Lambert

We’ve been done for a while.

 

[Mr Misunderstood]

We’ve been done for a while.

2 WCs and a shitty NL is the only reason they haven't been for a while. But yesterday seems irredeemable.

 

[Lame Lambert]

I cunceled awhile ago. I highly recommend.

As a mets fan for 40 years i have seen some real crap over the years. This years version may be the worst of it

This isn't even close. I was a kid in the mid 70s. From the time Mrs Payson died to the time we hired Frank Cashen we were doomed before the season even started. All there was to look forward to was Lee Mazzilli and when would Craig Swan get hurt.

Yes i know those 70s teams were all kinds of awful. But they didnt have the highest payroll coming off of 101 wins. This is a different level of horrific.

 

[BelovedIsles]

Been a Braves fan since the '90's. Can only dream that NYI had the equivalent talent (at some point in my lifetime).

That said, I hope they save some for the playoffs; they are a powerhouse.

To all the Met's whiners . . . Let's go Marlins!!!!

How do you NOT want to watch this guy pitch?
