NY Mets....August 2017

[Used 2 B Hu]

as far as the Dodgers in this year's postseason, I won't be all too happy about it, but I'll definitely be rooting for them ahead of the Nats, Cubs, Cards, Dbacks or Rockies.

I hear ya. I was hoping the Brewers would make the playoffs

Yeah..I guess I forgot about them.
With about 6 weeks left in the regular season they have a legit shot to win their division..or a wild card spot.

Time for MLB to test Stanton...like they should also do with Judge.
Once again zero run support for Jake.
Mets lose 6-4.

2 things from last night...

Mets' Wright (neck) begins rehab assignment

Martinez, Corbin lead Diamondbacks to 7-4 win over Mets

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

I saw Wright went 0-4 with two K's.

I'm of the opinion that he should just hang em up. The team to which he would eventually return will in no way resemble the one he left. His era has pretty much passed.

If he can still hit and insists on playing, maybe he should try to sign with some AL team

I think he should hang em up too...and he'll probably come to that realization on his own after this season anyway....but you can't blame him for wanting to try.

Would love for him to stay in the organization..as a mentor to the youngsters, perhaps as a hitting coach..and who knows maybe even manager at some level...perhaps the big club one day???

Metsies win 4-2...
Flexen flummoxes Ariz.
