'7' Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 And then the Nats bring in a 5+ era scrub from the pen to get Wright out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Wright is such a loser. So goddamn fvcking predictable. Loser loser loser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Well they're definitely still sleepwalking. Murphy with the bobble on the easy inning ending DP, and for some reason on 0-2 Addison Reed instead of wasting one or three throws him an awful hanging slider that he crushes. So long home field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Look David! That's called a fvcking clutch hit you zilch! Bye bye home field. They've got no one to blame but themselves. Well they're definitely still sleepwalking. Murphy with the bobble on the easy inning ending DP, and for some reason on 0-2 Addison Reed instead of wasting one or three throws him an awful hanging slider that he crushes. So long home fieldThere's still some softness to this team. It doesn't help that the face of the franchise (that's a laugh) NEVER gets it done when needed.And this should put an end to the absurd "Collins for manager of the year" talk.

'7' Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Not even an effort against Marcelino Rivera in the 9th. Might as well be swinging with our eyes closed. Oh well, much like the Phils the Nats get to enjoy their world series, but now we face Scherzer at night and the offense is completely dead. Dodgers are facing the Pads with Kershaw and Greinke, so yea...game 1 and 2 in LA. Padres won't muster up the effort that the Nats will the next two games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Honestly I'm not that bothered by losing home field. They've been utter crap at home the last six weeks anyway since the Pirate sweep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 I would just like the extra home date for revenue purposes. Plus playoffs at home is a different animal, the crowd noise will be defeaning so maybe, just maybe we can get those two aces off their game.

'7' Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 And a B lineup for game 2. Just beat Roark tomorrow and dont go into the playoffs on a 6 game losing streak ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 And I admit I liked seeing the NL East banner on Twitter, but it's almost like why the rush to hang it up? You would think the organization hopes it can get a better one this year. I would just like the extra home date for revenue purposes. Plus playoffs at home is a different animal, the crowd noise will be defeaning so maybe, just maybe we can get those two aces off their game. Yeah it might be two extra home dates really. And it defintely would have been electric seeing the Citi crowd on Friday going up against Kershaw. I just hope we aren't coming home down 2-0 so it won't be a morgue for Game 3 (though at least Game 3's our most winnable matchup in theory with either Harvey or Noah against Wood).

NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 At least the pitchers seem ready for the playoffs, but man this offense has reverted back to early-season form. And not at a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 God imagine if the Nats were within three games and this series actually meant a playoff berth as opposed to just home field? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 yike. Thank god it doesnt mean anything because the Mets dont have a pulse right now. how odd will it be when Scherzer perfects us and the Nats are celebrating on the field despite getting curbstomped for the division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 lol ending a perfect game with THAT is just so Nats 2015. I didn't even think Harvey would go 6 in this game tbh, I guess the leash really is off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) Well at least from a watching the games perspective, going to LA means the late-night TV starts are Friday/Saturday instead of Monday/Tuesday.

capo Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 And that's game over. Sucks for Noah, guy pitched a brilliant ballgame. Hell of a rookie campaign overall. Thor is an absolute beast. As he matures as a pitcher he will be a monster. The Mets need to get some solid bats to fortify this team for the years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Like the Heston no hitter. You knew by the 4th. no chance they get anywhere near a hit no chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Let this no hitter serve as a learning experience for this team, maybe it fires them up, hopefully it makes them angry as the garbage Nationals celebrate all over their field. You clinch...that doesnt mean you mail it in and stop trying. This team mailed it in and stopped trying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) It is kind of amusing thinking of Nats fans wondering where the fvck was this Scherzer of his last two meaningless starts when we actually needed it the previous two months? I do almost feel for him a little, losing a perfecto only cause of a 5th inning error. Edited October 4, 2015 by NJDevs4978 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 Yea, I mean small consolation for the Nationals. But to me this is embarrassing and a disgrace for the Mets. I don't feel bad for Scherzer not getting his perfect game. The fact that the Nationals, after getting PUNKED for the division are allowed to celebrate anything on our field is criminal. The Mets have been a different team since the clinch. All the passion is gone, all the urgency is gone, all the fire is gone. And this apathy and indifference has gone so far that they absolutely sleepwalk through a no hitter. The Phillies had an agenda when the Mets came in a few days ago, the Nats wanted to extract a pound of flesh when they came in...what do the Mets think they're some conquering heroes and just because they won the division means the Nats and Phils are just obligated to let the Mets walk all over them? Dodgers in 3. Mets do not know how to handle prosperity. They're not ready for this yet, they're not ready and it shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevs4978 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I mean I can't see them losing nine in a row and bad streaks from the regular season don't carry over to the playoffs all the time but yeah right now they have the look of a team that's going to lose quick. I don't think Harvey loses Game 3 at home, the good Harvey's clearly back with the last two starts although it's possible with the way things are going the bats get tight against Alex Wood and they lose that game too. They really need to have deGrom match Kershaw and somehow win a battle of the pens late in Game 1 to take the pressure off. I don't think any shot of Noah beating Greinke in Game 2. Or maybe they pitch Harvey in Game 2 and save Noah for the home Game 3 start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 (edited) I would so Harvey game two Noah game 3. I don't trust Noah on the road yet and he's absolutely dealing. Harvey has got his mojo back and I want him in game 2 to prevent this from being 2-0 Dodgers. I feel good about the starting pitching again...but this offense is corpsing it. It's like we won the division and the baseball gods said ENOUGH, that's all you get this year. It wouldn't shock me if they lost 9 in a row and went out with a whimper. Really wouldn't This no hitter is a bad omen. Very bad Edited October 4, 2015 by '7' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
