NY Mets...May 2017

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Salas walks the 1st guy he faces on 4 pitches...

TC over thinking and over managing again...it's becoming comical.

I'm almost certain this will backfire...but I really pray & hope I'm wrong.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

8-6 now after an rbi double....
2nd & 3rd..still no outs...

Fucking Ridiculous.

If the Mets don't hang on to win this....
Collins should be fired before heading to the desert.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

OMG it's a minor miracle....

Mets turned a comfortable 5 run lead into a precarious 2 run lead.

Onto the 8th.

Would love to see them respond by getting 1 or 2 of those back...

LGM!!!!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

TJ Rivera makes it 9-6...on a clutch 2 out rbi triple.....

Cycle watch...Conforto now up....he needs a single for the feat.

.....But he pops out.

Mets got 1 back at least.

Time for the BP to step up.

Salas staying in for now...


....and he walks the leadoff guy...then a 1 out single.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Salas is done...

1st & 3rd...1 out for Edgin now.

Thames, tying run at the plate.....is HBP.

They're loaded now.



Edgin out....Reed in.

Yikes!!!!!

Clusterfuckery at it's finest.

I can't bear to watch....I'm gonna have to look away.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

And the season's over

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Brewers lead it 11-9.....after a 3 run blast in the 8th.

Anyone who seriously thinks TC should be allowed to manage this team for 1 more day seriously needs to have their heads examined.

Sandy should resign immediately from his GM position.

It's appalling.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

And the season's over

Or damn close to it I'm afraid, after this shot to the gut.

Heads need to roll.

Should be a fun flight down to Phoenix tonight.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

This team is rapidly becoming a joke once again..and the fans are the undeserving punchline.

I'm really getting sick of it.

If the FO stands pat after this meltdown...it shows they just don't give a fuck.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Un. Fucking. Acceptable.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

And the season's over

at least the Dubs didn't disappoint.

Nothing is easy for the Mets these days. With Jacob deGrom on the mound, New York finally got a competent start but the bullpen collapsed in an 11-9 loss to Milwaukee. Manny Pina's three-run homer off Mets closer Addison Reed in the eighth capped the Brewers' rally from a 7-1 deficit. The Brewers scored 29 runs during their three-game sweep of New York.

• Brewers bash Mets pitching again, come back for 11-9 win


So...after the Dbacks lower the boom and sweep us this week...what more will it take before Sandy dumps TC??
Or should Sandy just step down??

 

[omarsrevenge]

JFC...this team sucks. I had high expectations coming into this season. We need bullpen help now! There is not one guy in the pen that can get thru an inning.

Amed Rosario is among the Mets' top prospects who is reportedly off-limits in any trade talks.

(From ESPN.com...5/15)

The New York Mets are a shorthanded team -- and are playing like one.

The Mets (16-20) squandered a six-run lead Sunday in a painful 11-9 loss to the Brewers that extended the Mets' losing streak to four games. The team's list of sidelined players includes ace right-hander Noah Syndergaard, star outfielder Yoenis Cespedes and closer Jeurys Familia.

A season that began with high expectations is in crisis, calling into question whether the Mets will seriously pursue outside reinforcements.

John Harper of the New York Daily News, however, reported Sunday that Mets general manager Sandy Alderson has no plans to give up their top prospects -- shortstop Amed Rosario or first baseman Dominic Smith -- in any deal.

Harper adds it is unlikely the Mets would trade two other minor leaguers, outfielder Brandon Nimmo or shortstop Gavin Cecchini, “just to chase a title this season.”

That philosophy, of course, would limit the Mets' options and possibly require them to absorb substantial salary in any deal for a veteran player.

Meanwhile, speculation as to whether the Mets will soon promote the 21-year-old Rosario will heat up if shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera continues to be plagued by a thumb injury. Kristie Ackert of the Daily News reports that Cabrera is “trying to play through” a torn ligament in the thumb and will be unavailable for Monday’s game in Arizona.

Rosario is hitting .359/.401/.493 at Triple-A Las Vegas.

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]
