NFT: ⚾Mets vs. Phillies NLDS thread⚾ Game 1 – 4:08 pm EDT start ⚾

Optimus-NY : 10/5/2024 1:05 pm
Welcome to this best-of-five National League Division Series thread between the 6th seeded Mets (89-73) & the 2nd seeded N.L. East Champion Phillies (95-67). The Mets beat the Brewers by the hairs on their chinny-chin-chins in the NLWS two days ago despite losing the season series to them during the regular season. The Phillies, like the Brewers, won the regular season series against the Mets 7 games to 6. The Mets will be looking for some payback against the Phillies the same way they did against the Brewers. Click HERE to read a preview of this Playoff Series. Enjoy 😊!

Nimmo!
F-ing Nimmo  
pjcas18 : 10/6/2024 6:10 pm : link
with balls of steel, taking back the lead.

you have to love seeing him succeed.
this fucking team - if anyone hasnt read the story about nimmo's  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:12 pm : link
grandmother and how nobody on the team knew she passed before game 3 in Milwaukee is great. this era of homegrown mets have gone through a lot of craziness, seeing them succeed on the big stage like this is deeply gratifying.
Brandon Nimmo, Pete Alonso, and the Mets’ deeply authentic feelings for one another 'This is my family, too, and I wanted to leave it all out there for them' - ( New Window )

probably. i may consider garrett. he's not as good b2b and he threw 2 yesterday but he was dominant and day off tomorrow. i like riding hot hand.
Butto  
spike : 10/6/2024 6:19 pm : link
is pitching scared.
They should use  
spike : 10/6/2024 6:20 pm : link
Megill soon
id have garrett warming up if butto doesnt have it  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:21 pm : link
i dont think you can go to diaz this early. megill in his first relief appearance non-ideal.

not many perfect options here but i think garrett is the best, he looked good yesterday ride hot hand.
Come  
spike : 10/6/2024 6:25 pm : link
on Butto
Diaz  
pjcas18 : 10/6/2024 6:26 pm : link
coming in....
well this is quite the ballsy decision by mendoza  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:26 pm : link
this is the high leverage argument for diaz. now is the time to get through the heart of the order with men on.
Butto  
spike : 10/6/2024 6:28 pm : link
has shown to be wild in the postseason. May need to use him less now
Nice  
pjcas18 : 10/6/2024 6:30 pm : link
does Diaz get the 8th too (score dependent, obviously)?
One  
spike : 10/6/2024 6:31 pm : link
more inning for Diaz.

Megill or Stanek or Garrett for the ninth. We miss Nunez
Whew!!!

Stanek threw a lot yesterday so he is probably not available
Garrett only threw 23 yesterday  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:40 pm : link
Maton threw 25.

those would be my 2 guys on call if diaz falters.
You throw 100 mph - fucking pitch to Harper  
CooperDash : 10/6/2024 6:43 pm : link
Stupid to pitch around him and put him on base with this lineup. That was a big mistake.
Yeah the announcer calls for Phillies  
moze1021 : 10/6/2024 6:45 pm : link
Have a TOTALLY different level of excitement

Bullshit MLB
And Diaz blows it because he’s nibbling and pitching scared  
CooperDash : 10/6/2024 6:45 pm : link
Shame
Could he not throw a fastball for a strike?

I usually don't complain but this is ridiculous. Nimmo HR was a peep compared to the philly hits.
fucccc  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:48 pm : link
currently due up in the 9th it's Bader, Lindor, Vientos. need to keep this a 1 run game. they already got one off estevez. obviously got to hoffman and strahm yesterday.

keep this to a 1 run game and it will be just as uncofortable in the top of the 9th for PHI as it was going through the heart of PHI order for mets.
wanted to get a look at megill out of the pen  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:49 pm : link
but this is a little more difficult of a situation than ideal.
Hey  
moze1021 : 10/6/2024 6:50 pm : link
Gotta be happy going back to NY 1-1


I believe in this team
We all  
Everyone Relax : 10/6/2024 6:51 pm : link
would have signed up for 1-1 going to NY. Hard to win these games on the road
lindor had to take charge and call that - he had the better angle  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:51 pm : link
im not sure either gets him but that should have been lindor's play.
But also  
Everyone Relax : 10/6/2024 6:52 pm : link

Sure, but you can still be frustrated for blowing the lead in the 8th inning and not able to go home up 2-0.
strahm coming in - not sure if you let bader hit or go to winker L/L  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:55 pm : link
tough call probably lean winker though.

We’ve stolen 3 games in the playoffs so far. It’s sucks but it’s playoff baseball
man bader needed to lean into that one  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 6:56 pm : link
that buzzed his shins.
full count to vientos with lindor on  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 7:02 pm : link

hoffman in now, if pete gets on i think u have to consider winker in for iglesias.
WOW! Vientos!  
Section331 : 10/6/2024 7:06 pm : link
There is no quit in this team.
megill up to 98mph  
Eric on Li : 10/6/2024 7:12 pm : link
that seems good.
Do not put Turner on base  
CooperDash : 10/6/2024 7:15 pm : link
Might as well just gift them a run and the game
Unbelievable
