By the 4th inning. Worst manager I’ve ever seen.
Wheeler might just be the best pitcher

He's mediocre. Maybe a 4th starter on the Yankees.

lmao. :)
Just a reminder to not talk about  
allstarjim : 9/17/2018 8:09 pm : link
What you are not supposed to talk about while what you are not supposed to talk about is still in progress. Yes, I know this is premature, but I thought I'd get out in front of it.
I feel like Wheeler and deGrom are getting hits  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:12 pm : link
every single game lately too.
It's amazing how good Wheeler has been since the break  
Vanzetti : 9/17/2018 8:16 pm : link
a 1.25 ERA (updated)

a .77 WHIP (updated)

We are talking Doc Gooden territory

That's what a lot of people really dont realize yet. There isnt a single pitcher in baseball pitching on Wheeler's level since June. Including deGrom.
If it's my team and we are in the playoffs...  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:21 pm : link
Wheeler is starting Game 1. deGrom Game 2.
Dammmmnnnn it...  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:24 pm : link
no hitter no more. Off McNeil's glove. :(
MF  
allstarjim : 9/17/2018 8:24 pm : link
Is this because I referenced something you are not supposed to talk about? Is there a jinx even if I don't say the word? McNeil has to make that freaking play. Dammit, man!

I'd still go Jake 1. He's proven he can win in the playoffs without his best stuff

There's no wrong answer. That's the beauty of it.
I'm convinced someone somewhere  
allstarjim : 9/17/2018 8:26 pm : link
Said the word. Two hits off of gloves now.
Im very worried about Wheeler's innings though...  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:27 pm : link
He's about to be at 100 more than last year. Of course he pitched zero the two years prior.
Of course...  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:31 pm : link
two hits off of gloves after having a no hitter going and then a bases clearing hit off a ball way out of the zone and by Smith who was playing way off the bag. :(

It's hard to shut him down when he is pitching like this. But it probably is wise.

He's clearly looked fatigued his last couple of outings. I dont know what they are doing to be honest. Going from 80 to 180 is crazy. He's already passed the point where he'll be ready for a full load next year. Shut him down.
Well that inning sucked.  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 8:40 pm : link
Oh well.
Conforto wRC+ 134 over the second half  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 9:26 pm : link
He's all the way back.
I'm with jpkmets  
allstarjim : 9/17/2018 9:55 pm : link
McNeil = Gaijin Ichiro.

What a fantastic player. Another 3 hits tonight.
Zamora coming in for the ninth  
ZGiants98 : 9/17/2018 10:07 pm : link
Reminds me of a young John Franco.
In just shy of 200 ABs  
allstarjim : 9/17/2018 10:14 pm : link
Jeff McNeil is hitting .335. Should be OPSing around .870 now.


And PIITB! Mets win!
Oh nothing...  
Gmanfandan : 9/17/2018 10:19 pm : link
Just dreaming of Rosario, McNeil and Conforto batting 1-3 for the next 6 years with Jake, Wheels and Thor on the bump.

Gonna get me some shades.

Don't forget Nimmo!
Conforto can carry the team when he's hot. But there will be times  
Ira : 9/17/2018 10:28 pm : link
when he can't buy a hit, and it's during those times when we need to be patient with him. He's a player, who in his prime, should hit 30+ hr's and 100+ rbi's over the course of a season.

Dont get too comfortable. Wheeler has one year of control left. Need to go all in on two pieces next year minimum.

Looks like he might hit 30 this year which is ridiculous after the first half he had.
