NFT: Cardinals at Mets Game 2

ZGiants98 : 7/18/2017 6:53 pm
Man, can we win a game against these guys?

METS LINEUP

Michael Conforto – CF
Asdrubal Cabrera – 2B
Yoenis Cespedes – LF
Jay Bruce – RF
T.J. Rivera – 3B
Lucas Duda – 1B
Jose Reyes – SS
Rene Rivera – C
Rafael Montero – RHP

Im actually looking forward to Montero pitching tonight although with as hot as the Cardinals lineup has been Im likely going to regret saying that.

Anything less than DeJong going 6 for 6 with 6 home runs has to be considered a victory, right? lol
I hate thinking this way but it seems better to lose a few series

Right now. I don't want the front office to have a case hope and try to be buyers. This just isn't our year. Sell off the vets (if there's any takers) and bring up and play the young guys.
False hope

This team is unbelievably bad

Defensively
What a bunch of shit defense tonight

Too bad. Montero actually looks good.
The biggest benefit of this entire year...

Is that Collins will finally be fired. You cant do a reset with the same manager. Looks like the players have given up on him and he lost the clubhouse anyway, literally his only calling card. Time to move on.
Getting tired of Cespedes bullshit

In the field. He should have caught that.

Yup. Two plays he lollygagged.

has to increase the value for Reed.

If the Mets really balked at trading Duda for a 22 year old top 100 prospect in AAA, I'm going to be pretty pissed.

Where are you hearing this?
Addison Reed doesn't get enough credit  
ZGiants98 : 7/18/2017 10:38 pm : link
He's been better than Robertson this year. It's a shame because we could really use him back next year. He's one of the best setup men in baseball who can legit close whenever asked.

I was holding out hope the Mets would come out hot and do some damage before the deadline but it just didn't happen. We needed to be where the Cardinals are right now... battling back to .500. Instead, we came out ice cold. Oh well. Too many disappointments this year to count.

We'll be back next year. Let's see what we can get.
How are the White Sox players so valuable

that they are getting premium prospects back in trade?

I think the Yankees got hosed in that deal. Frazier is awful and they already have two closers. Are the Yankees winning the WS this year? Do they have the starting pitching? If not it's a terrible deal.
maybe we should trade

TJ Rivera. . He has more upside than Todd Frazier

They most likely didn't want to trade one of their top prospects for him after they traded several for Eaton. They made a great move by acquiring Doolittle and Madson for that price. I don't think Washington is done adding to the bullpen. I dislike helping a division rival but I would be very happy with a Jaime Garcia and Arodys Vizcaino for Carter Kieboom trade. I am not sure how realistic that is but I am sure Dan has a better idea.
