NFT: Jason Vargas: GET IT TOGETHER MAN!

PatchoguePete : 5/21/2018 2:31 pm
Tonight, the Mets look to continue their winning ways. 3 wins in a row. 2 games out of first in the loss column. 1 game out of the WC. Unfortunately Jason Vargas is pitching tonight, so it'll probably be 12-0 Marlins after 2 innings.

I was being snarky but I was only messing with you man. We can sit on opposite sides of the fence but I will always think you are one of the best posters here. You are respectful and act like an adult and I know you are as big of a diehard as anyone. It is all good. We all want the same thing.

I know. It's all love. I'll be the first one to be excited and optimistic if I feel like the team is playing well and going in the right direction.

The entire last couple of months of 2015 I was as confident as anyone. Every time people thought the Nats were about to make a run I was supremely confident we were better and they wouldn't catch us.

I was super optimistic down the stretch in 2014 too - which wasn't even a good season. Just because I thought it looked like all the young kids were on the way up and the future was super bright.

I'm just disgruntled and want this team to be better. Hopefully they'll turn it around and get back on track here. I can't deal with another lost season. I'm so tired of losing.

That's a huge step in the right direction!
If not for overusing our pen

I'd get Vargas out now....confidence booster....don't need to see him 3rd time thru the order.

Need to do a little more offensively here. 1 run won't be enough to win tonight.
Really hope Plawecki, Cespedes, Frazier, and Swarzak  
ZGiants98 : 5/21/2018 8:48 pm : link
Can make it back in the next week or two. I know we will never be completely healthy but certain players are performing better lately and adding them back into the mix will definitely help things.

Phew. Got him with the curveball.

Would have been a tie game if he laid off. Wasn't a strike.

4 in a row. Hopefully we're getting back on track. Cannot let up against the Marlins. I want a sweep.

Could have been another game closer if the Marlins didn't blow a 5 run lead in the 9th yesterday.
Mets on pace for 90 wins at the moment.  
ZGiants98 : 5/22/2018 1:08 am : link
If only they had some of their best players (Cespedes) back and healthy as well.

24 wins and 19 loses.

24 + 19 = 43

24 wins / 43 total games - .558

162 games at .558 winning percentage is 163 x .558 = 90.4

(this is a Mets thread so you have to show your work).
90 wins  
Metnut : 5/22/2018 9:16 am : link
might not be a good enough this year. With teams like the Marlins, Reds, Pads all so bad, a lot of teams are at or above .500. The Nationals will be getting players back relatively soon also, Cards will get Reyes back, etc., so things aren't going to be easy. The Mets will have to keep winning to get back to the playoffs.

Solid performance by Vargas and the pen last night. Hopefully Wheeler can give us something tonight.
I agree Metnut  
figgy2989 : 5/22/2018 9:52 am : link
There are a lot of bad teams for the NL to feast on this year. 90 wins might not be enough. You also have to think teams like the Nats and Dodgers are going to start playing better while the Phils and Braves might come back down to earth.
