Last time out the Mets went balls deep on Strider and he complained that it was all luck. He was made fun of nationally.

The Mets are 5.5 games up on Atlanta. That said, the Mets have had a couple injuries. Looks like Guillorme will be out for a bit. I’m hoping they bring up Brett Baty. This is a 4 game set. Scherzer and deGrom will get the last 2.

At this point it’s “stay ahead of the Phillies” time for me.

This series definitely doesn’t have the same juice the previous two against ATL have had. Bringing up Baty would be amazing, I think he’s actually our “best prospect” but Alvarez plays a premium position so he’s ranked higher.

This. Hoping for competitive ABs, health for both clubs, and more Braves happiness in the long run.

Hes not really a plus catcher defensively though right? He just can play it at an acceptable enough level that you want him there for the positional advantage on offense. At least thats what I've taken from what I've read on him. Haven't read much on Baty though.

I'm not quite at that point yet, If we don't get at least a game in this series I don't think we will make up the ground though.

ETA: The next two weeks will determine a lot for us. 4 against the Mets, 3 against Houston, a Pirates series you'd like to see a sweep in, and then the Cards.

I just looked at the Phillies schedule and they do have a pretty easy September. Besides a 2 game series against Toronto, its a bunch of middling or bad teams and then us for 6 games total. They could potentially make up a lot of ground.

It’s very good that we had the June that we had.

He is still pretty poor defensively at this point but is improving

Would love to see him go up and in with that 100 mph heater as a middle finger to you and other Mets fans.

Strider is just an immature piss ant. I doubt he has the stuff to be more than a career journeyman

Classy. Maybe Acuna will quit against deGrom like he generally does with “leg soreness” then come in to PH once the bullpen is called upon. I want to like Acuna but he’s one of the bigger pussies in MLB

I cringed at his comments after last game TBH. The Mets BABIP isn't even that high

Why are you citing stats after the game and talking about "we will see in October" when hes never done anything in October either? Typical entitled doucher thinking he won something because his team did. Bama has that issue with guys coming in to the program too.

probably true. No chance your sorry organization could turn a 4th round pick with one inning of AAA into ROY candidate 1B. Much better to pay some geezers 40. Million just to cross your fingers that their arms don’t fall off down the stretch
