Any shot we get Soto? I really doubt it with Nats being in our division. They'll probably trade him to Yankees or something

I don’t think he’ll be a Met. We’re looking for a LH DH/1B. Dom ain’t cutting it and just got hurt.

3b brett baty is having an insane season.

.307 ba
20 doubles
16 homeruns
.930 ops

he's already a top 30 prospect in all of baseball.

What's the deal with Naquin? Any good or just a reserve OF?

Mets just traded JD, Szapucki and 2 minor leaguers to the Giants for Darren Ruf, who will platoon at DH with Vogelbach.

Mets are also about to deal for Cubs’ RH reliever Mychal Givens

Truly. I can just see us going against him and Wheeler during the last week of the season with everything on the line. Bookmark this! :noway:

I lived in Philadelphia for about 30 years - including the 2007 and 2008 collapses.

Someone call a doctor, it's been longer than 4 hours and it's not coming back down

What a great series, and if it wasn't for a clearly hurt Walker then this would have been a clean 5 game sweep.

We fcked them up!

I was at the game on Saturday night when Scherzer pitched. The place was electric. It was a big love fest. Everybody was slapping high 5s with everyone else. When the capacity crowd was filing out of the stadium, we were doing the Braves chop chant. Then someone started a "Yankees Suck!" for a brief bit. Then we went back to the Braves chop chant. lol.

I hadn't been to a game in about 5 years. It was good to be back ... though getting in and out of the stadium complex is still a big pain in the ass. They need to fix that. Also the food vendor selections are not a good as they should be. I lived in Philadelphia for 30 years and Citizens Bank Ballpark has a much better layout inside, better food options, and is roomier in the concession areas. Plus, getting in and out of the stadium is a breeze. Thank you, Fred and Jeff Wilponzi.

Mets now tied with the Yanks, record wise. I just hope at least one of the NY teams make it to the WS

finally promoted to triple a

his numbers now since this post

.312 ba
22 doubles
19 homeruns
.950 ops

remember he fell because he was older than other high school players, that's it -- his hit tool was always plus plus.

The entrance song for Diaz gets you so pumped. Just fcking cold blooded and intimidating. Strikes out the side to end the game. 19 total strikeouts yesterday for Mets pitchers.

Buck has been a maestro.

And that song is bad ass. Do you know the name of the song and artist? Or is it something the Mets PR office made up for him?

Big series with the Phillies coming to town. I’d love to put a pin in their little balloon this weekend. We have Scherzer and deGrom pitching back to back nights with Bassitt pitching Sunday afternoon.

I'm about as fair weather of a baseball fan as it gets. Just started following this team. They look legit AF. Have the composition of a champ.

Came in at a good time. This is there best team since 86 (which I wasn't born for)...whether that translates to winning a WS who knows. But from there lineup to pitching staff to the back end with Diaz the Mets have never had a more complete team.

I've seen 2000, 2006, and 2015...they had parts all 3 years but never the complete package.
