Soto was talking so much smack lol.

Said they were better positioned to win (whoops)
Said they had better youth (their youth sucks…McLean is overrated too…don’t get me started on their junk pitching lab)

Then Clay Holmes gives up some more runs because of wild pitches and junk like that.

I thought Soto chose the Mets over the Yankees because of his family.


Honestly, that might have been the real reason. He might have just been trying to pretend it was baseball reasons, to save face. But yea, Jeff Passan was sharing how Soto liked the Mets’ future, I remember

Bum franchise.

It's pathetic enough that we allow them to use our stadium, George is rolling in his grave. Of course it is our own damn fault that we threw all the games we did putting ourselves in a must sweep position and rely on the Rays. Always put it in your hands, we'll see what happens tomorrow.

The Astros are the Golden State Warriors of baseball: a team whose best days are far behind them!

Today will either be a time for great expectations, or start the plane to Cancun.

A win and a Toronto loss, Yanks are #1 seed and have a good rest.
Toronto wins, face Boston on Tuesday on short rest.

Either way, their time in the postseason ends at the division series.

Everyone absolutely is correct about how we shouldn’t have dropped games but investigate the Rays for tanking anyway, MLB!

Ok put Mark Leiter in and leave him in. Thanks Boone and Devin Williams for throwing away the division.

Devin Williams better turn into '96 Mo Rivera in the playoffs to makeup for how badly he screwed over the Yankees this season.

Heard their fans want Bellinger now. They're going to convert Devin Williams to a starter and they're going to enjoy it!

They paid Hal and that's all that really matters. Hell, we don't even need to do anything else this year. We made the playoffs as a Wild Card and that's a success in Hal's book.

Oh and Judge is absolutely getting screwed of the MVP. The chorus is too loud right now.

We gotta give credit to the other teams that helped the Mets pull off the legendary, historic collapse!!!! The 3rd time they've been destroyed by the Marlins on the last day!

Credit to the Marlins - they skipped Alcantara's start against the Phillies, dooming their own playoff hopes. They played Alcantara against the Mets instead and beat them 6-2!

Shoutout to the Reds too - these guys were mediocre as eff all season, but damn, they went 8 - 3 in their last eleven games!

Credit to the Brewers - they gave the Mets their crappy GM and kept the real architect of their team

Credit to the Yankees - we gave them bums like Holmes and Montas! If those guys weren't crappy ex-Yankees, would the Mets have signed them?

Why take Fried out? Is it because the analytics tell you too?

You go to the pen when you need to your ace should be able to throw over 100 pitches in the playoffs. The purpose of an ace is to make it easier for your pen to finish the game and be to be able to have your pen fresh for tomorrow.

This notion of a pen carrying you in the postseason is such an overrated concept.

Really appreciate Luke and what he’s done for us but he can’t be trusted right now. He needs to get benched and enjoy his 80/3 from the Mets next year

Return to New York Knicks
