OT: MLB Thread XLVIII

[Bob Richards]

Brandon Drury lmfao

And they shouldn't be. Need pitching. I'd buy low on Luis Castillo.

Time to do that was late May, he’s been dominant for two months now.

To your earlier point, they do some exciting shit, win a big series, whatever. Then they get shutout in back-to-back games by some awful team and then only salvage the series by winning a bullpen game and scoring 3 runs on 8 walks and 2 hits or some nonsense.

 

[nyr2k2]

Fam has been f***ing great. Outside of that game against SD where I place the blame solely on Rojas, he has been really clutch.

When was the last time Mets' executed a play so perfectly?

 

[Bob Richards]

Absolutely perfect throw by Conforto.

 

[nyr2k2]

LOL f***ing Mets. What a typical way for them to close it out.

EDIT: I mean, in heart attack fashion. Not the good defense. That's new.

They call it The Aristocrats!

 

[Blueshirt Believer]

Conforto won that game.

 

[nyr2k2]

I just listened to Gary's call on the Conforto play like 30 times in a row. Cohen is such a treasure. We're really spoiled to have him (and Keith and Ron).

 

[Maximus]

Mets typically don't win games like tonight. This year we seem to be getting love from the baseball gods tho on the other hand, the injury gods haven't been all to kind!...lol

 

[nyr2k2]

Yeah we'll win tomorrow, take the series with Cincy, and then lose 3 of 4 to Miami and find ourselves back in the same spot.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Yuuuuuge win and a crazy play to end it but we’ll take it. Big momentum with a win and a Gallo trade

Cole on the mound tomorrow. And then you get Miami who while not a complete pushover, just offloaded Marte.

Edit: And has their Ace on IL

489 sos rest of the way, 5th easiest in baseball, no excuse not to at least be the 5 seed at this point.

Getting a worse relief pitcher, but only sending 4 instead of 6 now.

He was good last year not sure what happened but meh I just want Gallo

 

[RGY]

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

King was/is on the IL that could explain it

The Texas Rangers put left-handed pitcher John King on the 10-day Injured List Friday, retroactive to July 7, due to left shoulder inflammation.

It was mainly about getting Gallo like you said and now they keep Pereira out of the deal, hard not to like this from Yankees side.

He kept almost every bigger prospect out of it. I do like Otto tho

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Miami wanted Volpe for Marte.

 

[RGY]

I want Story at this point. See what the cost would be as a rental. See if you can get them to eat some money. Send them Hicks to offset some money too.

Definitely would like another SP arm. But no idea who is out there

Jose Berrios
Danny Duffy
Jon Gray
Kyle Gibson

Scherzer doesn’t want NY. Also slim chance Colorado would make Marquez available

Yep heard all those names.

Sucks Scherzer doesnt want the Yanks. I think if they were a more clear cut contender then he would have been more open to it.

I do like Gibson. He is having a good year. But Yanks have already dealt with Texas twice now this year. Do they go and make a 3rd deal?

Or do they go for a Story/Gray package?
