Thor a bit off right now.
Damn, gave two runs right back. Let's hope he settles down.

Agreed in that regard. But they couldn't hold a lead, albeit early, in either game. Tough losses, but nothing season-ending.

Touchy are we? It is the Mets thread.
And that doesn't mean the Rays are a bad team, but the Mets record and who they have out there on those days are different things. That said, I'll give you that perhaps I overstated a bit. Go Devil Rays.

Oh, I was not at all questioning the credentials, but rather the fact that many of us here may be at times delusionally bullish, or delusionally doom bringing.

What's Uribe's role when Wright comes back, especially if Wright hits and you want him in the lineup other than rest.

very nice. Looking forward to watching degrom tomorrow.
Let;s go Dodgers!

Headed to the game tonight. Best place to buy tickets? I assume a place like seatgeek? Is it one of those things where the longer I wait the better off I am going to be? Or should I just buy them early this morning?

I'll be there tonight with 6 other buddies (our entire Mets email thread minus the guy who lives in Chicago...that level of commitment from our bunch really shows how things have turned around). We bought on Stubhub last week...$27/each for the lower RF bleachers. Prices are up since then, and inventory is down, so if you see something you like, I would just grab now. Team coming off two wins, deGrom starting, perfect weather forecast, and a day game tomorrow should lead to a nice crowd tonight so I don't see much benefit in waiting unless you're looking for pricier seats.

Hey now, play nice. We're mostly happy for you guys in DC- at least this beats losing to the Phils, Braves or Cardinals.
And you won't see me celebrating when Harvey snaps his UCL again in spring training after throwing 200 innings in his rehab year

Is he actually nursing a sore knee? At the time I thought it was just very convenient that he was sitting against him after the whole "he's not that good, gets strikes 6 inches off the plate" comment.Hey now, play nice.

If he's actually hurt I withdraw the laughter obviously.

I've done stubhub the morning of with success.
Do people still scalp tickets outside the stadium?
TobiasFunke
Footballguy
Yeah he's definitely hurt. He couldn't have possibly picked a worse time to sit- there's no way the manager would have let him do it. They've faced a run of lefties, including a tough one today. Any of those matchups would have made for a better rest day. And yesterday they had to start eight righties against an RHP and they also had to play a lumbering Clint Robinson in RF (picture Bartolo Colon manning the outfield) because Harper is one of only two competent defensive OFs on the current 25 man roster Total disaster. Also there's video of him wincing after a slide late in Monday's game, after the injury supposedly occurred in the 3rd inning.Is he actually nursing a sore knee?

I'd be pretty surprised if he plays today. In fact I'd be kind of surprised if he plays before the weekend. If he does I suspect he'll be less than 100% and will just be out there to work walks and play functional OF defense.

I just bought 3 tickets at 76 pop in section 126. Not terrible, but I rarely go, so whatever.

It's been years since I've been there. Can I bring a big bag of peanuts?
RUSF18
Footballguy
Yeah. Just check the bag policies if you're planning on bringing anything in that isn't plastic. Not sure if they've adopted those NFL like policies but if you're planning on bringing a backpack or something, you should check their site.
Oh and nice seats.

The line to get in was pretty long. I had just 3 kids with me and a lady told me to go to the front if I had no bags/purses etc...RUSF18 said:
So if you see a long line you should be able to go to the front where they will allow people who do not need a bag check.
I took a small water bottle with some premixed vodka/cranberry juice...what....don't judge me. Like I said I was alone with 3 kids.

Thinking of maybe taking kids on sunday.
Anyone ever do the kids run the bases after the game thing?

Meh,
just sounds like someone posting a trade scenario in the shark pool
Boston Globe baseball columnist Nick Cafardo suggested that the Red Sox might consider trading shortstop Xander Bogaerts to the New York Mets for one-time phenom pitcher Matt Harvey in an attempt to bolster their sagging pitching staff.
RUSF18
Footballguy
Oh I know it isn't happening. I just couldn't believe a guy like Bob Ryan was arguing that Harvey wasn't worth Bogaerts. I really like them calling Harvey a "one-time phenom" like he's a guy struggling to bring down a 4+ ERA.

Great. We were close enough to the action and wound up in the last row of the bottom level on the 3rd base line. The sight lines were great, and the overhang did not interfere. I loved being able to just pop over the rail and quickly run to the bathroom and grab beer/food. I'd love season tickets right there, honestly. Also protected from the weather. Not that we needed it, it was the perfect night for a game.
MCguidance

This town would go nuts if you traded any of those three at this point. There are like 5 guys in baseball I would trade Harvey or deGrom for, and it sure as #### isn't Xander Boegarts. The chance all these pitchers stay healthy is really slim. So unless you get a ridiculous talent, you sit tight.
