Nice to get support from the West Coast Braves are below .500 against >.500 teams. They've done a lot of fattening up on the bottom feeders...to their credit, they've been REALLY good at doing that. The seven games remaining against the Phillies will be HUGE for the Braves...that, and sweeping their final three-game set against the Mets...all the Mets have to do is win one game against the Braves (clinching the season series), and then they effectively have a "bonus" game in the standings, in that if both teams finish with identical records, the tiebreaker goes to the Mets...it's like being an extra game up.

'7' Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Major MAJOR missed opportunity against the awful Cubs. Bassit has been good, they hadn't lost one of his starts since July 23rd...so I suppose it was due to happen. Still they had some opportunities and came up very small. Have to win tonight. These are bad teams. 5-5 in our last 10 vs Cubs, Nats, and Marlins...not acceptable at all. Giants did us a major solid last night but guess what, won't be long until Atlanta rattles off another 8 or 9 in a row. The Mets should be up 2.5 right now. Can we undo that Ruf for JD Davis trade? The hell was the point of that? He's hitting like .130 Edited September 13, 2022 by '7' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hell was the point of that? He's hitting like .130 I can't even look at last night as a missed opportunity because never at any point did I feel like the Mets deserved to win that game. Clearly it's not enough to show up to the park and just expect to win. The Mets fully deserve to be 5-5 over these 10...and here's what's kooky...check out the runs scored and runs allowed in the wins vs. the losses: 5 wins: 42 RF, 9 RA 5 losses: 9 RF, 33 RA In some ways, it'd be frustrating if you could make argument being 7-3 or 8-2 with a break here or there...but all of the losses have been deserved. I wouldn't worry about Atlanta suddenly going on another mega-tear...they still have to finish up this WC trip, and then have a bunch of games against the Phillies. The Mets just have to clean up on the rest of this homestand...hopefully they can win at least 5 of the remaining 6 games. Anything less than 4 and yeah, I'm going to start to wonder about them a little. Edited September 13, 2022 by Colorado Rockies 1976 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 And just some things to keep us all grounded whenever we start to feel like "Here we go again, it's all gonna fall apart, Mets gonna Met..." They've had a total of three three-game losing streaks all season...not one four-game dip yet. Just eleven times they've lost two in a row. As I've brought up previously, I've divided the season into 16 groups (15 groups of 10 games each, with the 16th group to made up of 12 games). Here's what they've done so far W-L, for each group (in order): 7-3, 7-3, 6-4, 6-4, 7-3, 6-4, 6-4, 5-5, 6-4, 7-3, 8-2, 6-4, 5-5, 6-4 6-4 or better for 12 out of the first 14 groups, and they STILL haven't finished under .500 for any of them. This team may not go on the kind of tears that the Braves have, but they flat-out don't slump either. They've been incredibly steady. So hopefully the track record soon trumps the present.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Vogelbach was kinda fun there for about a week or so, but I can’t take him for much longer. The fact that he can’t run at all isn’t helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
