Mets are just clearly the team of destiny this year. Shame the Phillies blew their team of destiny years.

 

[DancingPanther]

Team of destiny is gonna win this one. I wish I saw that coming! Honestly it serves them right, maybe after the 3rd season in a row of this they'll get the clue and fire Castellanos and Walker into the sun and spend that money on a less slump prone hitter.

Also figures it was Nimmo. Do the Phillies ever get him out?

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Bullpen will take a lot of heat for this game but the offense is clearly the biggest reason

 

[DancingPanther]

I'm gonna just go watch someone play Cities Skylines 2. No use getting any more worked up before work. Great game had fun

Yep. 1 run just isn't going to cut it. bullpen came in nervous. if they lose this game it's over and hopefully Thompson is gone.

Tell that to Chris Carpenter in the 2011 NLDS game 5.

 

[Sombastate]

An absolute meltdown from the bullpen

Without Schwarber they are no-hit. This offense is too good on paper to be so boom or bust

 

[Flybynite]

barring losing in a playoff game (which this is) there is absolutely no fan experience worse at a Phillies home game than losing to the Mets.

An absolute meltdown from the bullpen

Ita not a good bullpen. It never was.

 

[GKJ]

Obviously the offense has been asleep, but your bullpen can't come in and give up 5 runs in the 8th. You will win zero playoff games doing that

 

[Adam Warlock]

The worst part is there wont be any fight. No attempt at a rally. No attempt to get them to burn duaz. Just 6 quiet outs.

 

[djw99]

Without Schwarber they are no-hit. This offense is too good on paper to be so boom or bust

yes, this offense is just terribly constructed. We saw it the whole 2nd half of the season.

how do you waste this gem from wheeler. just terrible. offense should be ashamed.

how the heck can no one but shwarber have a hit. come on. just embarrassing. and there is strikeout 1

 

[Gregor Samsa]

Plus side is the offense and bullpen can’t be worse. Literally disastrous showings from both of them

 

[ajgoal]

This one is all on me. I went to the bar for the top of the 7th. The first bit of a game I've seen in a couple of months.

 

[zizbuka]

Bryce Harper's one of the most overrated players in sports. Tired of hearing how he's the heart & soul. He's a pampered self-centered spoiled brat.

 

[Svechhammer]

Topper has to be the worst manager at bullpen management in baseball. He consistently makes the absolute wrong decision every single time

 

[Adam Warlock]

Dont wanna let the hitters off rhe hook but Topper basically admitted be went with defense first line up. A lot of good that did!

 

[Halladay]

3 hits against what the Mets put out there today isn't acceptable. This loss is on the bats.

 

[Danko]

Vibes are at historic lows.

 

[BiggE]

Wheeler and Schwarber did their jobs. Everyone else, not so much.

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

Team has like 5 free outs in the lineup.

 

[Danko]

They needed more hits earlier, Bohm, Stott, Marsh need to contribute to this series

 

[Striiker]

I blame Jamey Baskow
