Just saw this little doozy on Amazin Avenue, the Mets' SB Nation site:

quote:

As if the game itself wasn’t painful enough, the ESPN broadcast (and Fox last night) tacitly approving of the Tomahawk Chop was irresponsible and offensive. frick that racist noise. Be better, Atlanta.

Melt, bitches.

They always turn to the “chop is racist” line when they are getting their asses beat. Dodgers did the same thing last year. frick em.

And then this gem:

Braves are absolutely not a better team.


They maybe have a better bullpen. I'll take the Mets lineup all day. The Mets rotation all day. The Mets defense all day.



Full meltdown mode.

Hot take maybe/probably but

A) I don’t think the chop is racist

B) i think it’s kind of stupid and I feel silly doing it. haven’t done it for maybe 3-4 years now

In the biggest series of the season, the #Braves tagged deGrom, Scherzer and Bassitt for 11 earned, 17 hits and six homers in 14.1 IP.

The Atlanta bullpen on the other hand? How about 1 ER on 7 H over 12.2 IP with just 2 walks and 14 strikeouts.

Take care of business tomorrow and give Acuna, Olson, Swanson, Riley and d'Arnaud the last two games off. Get one of the outfielders a 1B mitt.

I love the day after clinching division lineups.

Better lineup?

The Mets have a good lineup but this is silly. Mets get on base a little more but OPS and runs clearly show the Braves lineup produces more. And the numbers since that June 1 timeframe when the Braves took off (and not coincidentally around the time Michael Harris got into the starting lineup and changed the whole dynamic) are even more tilted towards the Braves clearly having the better lineup.

No lie, I was pretty down when they took a 3-1 lead, but then ESPN cut to shot of Buck in the dugout and a huge calming sensation came over me.

Pretty good interview actually. Handled that about as well as he could given the absolutely crushing circumstances.

Really need the Braves to clinch tomorrow so we don’t have to worry about who the hell is going to pitch Tuesday and Wednesday. Please get well soon Strider!

Someone gave me a pass to that deck once. You are absolutely correct. Never again. I could have walked back and forth from the gate to my trusty East 31 lot 50 times before I got out of Silver.
