And the bullpen comes in and gives up a home run to a guy that hasn't played in over 2 years. There's a DH, so no excuse for Soroka to not be out there.

With only 69 pitches he could have easily gone another inning. I get not pushing it first game but it was still a low pitch count and he should have gone another

You take a pitch right down the middle like that with the tying run on second with two outs in the 8th, it tells me, Acuna has already given up on the game.

Pathetic effort all around from everyone not named Mike Soroka today.

 

[Chewbaccer]

But, the Mets are notoriously hard to beat on opening day. They have the best opening day record since they game into the league, and that includes their early days when they were terrible.

But every hitter has looked off.

I don’t think we are that good this year. Our lineup is nowhere near as solid as the last 2 years. It’s Acuna, Ozzie, Freddie and a bunch of unknowns. And our staff is Soroka and Fried.

This. Throw Waters and Pache out there for 60 games this year, get their feet wet. Pitch Wright and Anderson. Cut Flowers and get a young guy some experience. Prepare for the future. It's only 60 games this year.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Wait all year for that pathetic display.

Nothing but strikeouts and not being able to get a runner in from third with one out.

 

[gobigred]

Terrible offensive effort today. 3 damn hits and 0 runs and a ton of strikeouts. Very few scoring opportunities

 

[Chewbaccer]

Matt Adams better not be in the lineup tomorrow. Signed to a minor league deal a week ago and he's in the opening day lineup and he pisses the only scoring chance we had all game down his leg.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Yo fuck Matt Adams. That’s my biggest pet peeve in baseball is not getting a runner home from 3rd with less than 2 outs

 

[Chewbaccer]

And I'm not a fan of Chris Martin. Him straining his pussy is the reason we lost game 1 of the NLDS last season.

What a Piss poor offseason for AA when it comes to adding firepower to the lineup. OZUNA HAS BEEN ON A DOWNWARD TRAJECTORY SINCE HE PEFT MIAMI!!!

That needs to be a guaranteed run every damn time, no exception.

I'm still pretty soured on Freddie because of game 4. I was low key hoping Bryce Ball would get some time at first when Freddie tested positive for Covid.

If it's home grown talent, he'll sign em long term, but forget about landing a big FA for more than a season.

 

[RubinRock]

Silver lining is Luke Jackson didn’t give anyone a heart attack

Well, the good news is that 8 teams on each side get in the playoffs this season. So theoretically we could finish 4th in our division and still make the playoffs

 

[Mistaken4193]

OH AND FUCK CHRIS MARTIN!!! CESPEDES HASNT PLAYED IN 3 FUCKING YEARS AND YOU LET HIM TAKE YOU DEEP??!!

OH AND YOUR BAND FUCKING SUCKS TOO!!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

We're never gonna score a run this year.

Bench Freddie's ass too. Giving you the whole left side of the infield and you pull it right into the shift for a double play. After his choke job in the playoffs last year, he doesn't get any passes this year.

Went from hero to goat(not the good kind) to me.

We need to just play Pache and Waters. Put Ronald in the 3 hole.

Fried looked really good in the first inning. We need to lock up him and Soroka long term soon

HEY A RUN!!!

About God damn time.
