Everytime I give up on the Mets they seem to fight back. The Mets look like they will rise from the dead and will sweep the Nationals to move to within a half a game. The problem is their next 13 games are against the Giants and Dodgers. Will they still be in the race after those 13 games?
Stop pulling the Band-Aid off slowly…just rip it off and tell us he’s done for the season or maybe if we get into the playoffs.
I guess, but anyone who hasn't already come to terms with that just isn't paying attention. At this point, it's more interesting to me what he does next season - it seems clear that he shouldn't come out again trying to be the best pitcher in history, since he's just not physically capable of sustaining it for more than a few months.
Diaz comes in in the top of the 9th in a tie game. I understand that at this point it's all hands on deck, but is there any reason to feel confident here?
You don't "always" do anything that is totally arbitrary. You do what gives you the best chance to win. Diaz has failed so many times in that situation that not bringing him in would have been perfectly reasonable. Bringing him in was also reasonable, given how suspect other possibilities also were, as I clearly said, so I don't even see what your point was anyway. He ended up barely getting through, which doesn't change my point in the slightest. As it turns out, it was another bad reliever (Familia) who messed up instead.
I really don't understand the reasoning behind bringing Familia in to pitch the top of the 10th. He was abysmal on Thursday afternoon against the Nationals and was going on his 3rd day of work in a row.
https://sports.yahoo.com/another-wo...-in-2020-after-alleged-assault-160420197.html “To The Washington Post, the Dodgers declined comment on whether they knew about the Ohio allegations.” So yes they knew lol I wonder if The Mets knew about this when they made an offer to him.
Down 6-0 bottom 2 and Carrasco stays in to bunt and then they take him LOL Did any of you hear Carrasco after the game when asked about it? "I just don't know" was basically his response.
