Mets bats are super hot right now.. Mets owning the Marlins so far...

**juicername** · 08-06-19, 09:58 AM

Yes. The Mets have not been mathematically eliminated from postseason contention yet, so they can make the playoffs.

**JIBBBY** · 08-06-19, 10:01 AM

Mets are only 3 games out of the wild card spot.. Of course they can make the playoffs if they keep winning games at the rate they are now.. Easily make it.

Mets have to sweep Marlins

**BigdaddyQH** · 08-06-19, 11:06 AM

All of this talk about how much money people made in 2015. Notice how they forget to tell us that they have been losing their arses ever since. If you have to talk about winning money 4 years ago, you are one desperate fool who has been an overall loser for years. Only losers talk about an occasional win. At least try to PRETEND to be professional, even though there is no way in hell that you guys are.

Dude, I've been 'capping baseball here since 2011.
I've had two losing seasons in that 8 span so far, this season I'm pretty much even.
Now you've done it, now you made me go into attention whore mode.
In 2012 and 2013 I was spitting out +180 winners (especially Baltimore in 2012 when they were winning at an alarming rate as big 'dogs.)

I don't need to prove anything, my work is out there, and my integrity since day one has never been questioned.

Now I know why you're one of these here forums most disliked posters.
I'm one of the very few that showed you some respect, that's out the window now, but somehow I don't think you really give a shit, which is fine by me.

Now carry on and backhand another poster some disrespect.

not as favorable as you would think lot of games against winning teams and division teams.

ATL, PHL, WASH, CLEVE, and CUBS.

from AUG 9 - SEPT 9 very brutal stretch

I love the way the Mets rotation matches up with PHI. They should crush them. We'll see what Max is like for WSH when he gets back.

Just to be clear, I'm not a Mets "fan." In fact, I'm not a fan of any team. I just see a club with four starting pitchers that have world class nasty stuff. They still have to bring it, but it's definitely possible. Their bullpen, which has been better of late, is still a major question mark. So these starters need to pitch well and pitch deep.

Mets rotation 1-5 is the best in baseball. The bullpen needs to pitch well if the mets are going to make it to the playoffs.

Yes, they need to minimize their bullpen use down the stretch. Maybe even go with 4 starters and put Matz in the pen. Lugo has been lights out. They should avoid using Juriss "FAMILY TREE" Familia except in blowout games. He's a fukkin bum.

They certainly in the conversation w a few others. Bullpen really drags them and the Nats overall pitching down. Crazy cause they invested a lot into the pen last couple years.

**Big Bear** · 08-06-19, 04:26 PM

I’ll tell ya who has a good rotation is the Reds

if they make the playoffs

LOOKOUT

Wheeler is -265 tonight.

Odds are jacked though I agree but probably spot on.

Reds don't have a good rotation, yes Castillo at the top is having a solid season (11-4 2.63 ERA 1.10 WH/IP) is solid.
Sonny Gray at 6-6 has been pretty good and dependable.
That's it, Tanner Roark and DeSclafani are horse shit.
That rotation is top heavy, and there are plenty of better 1-2 punches in MLB than Gray and Castillo.
Plus the Reds are 53 and 58 in fourth place in their own division, realistically you can expect 80-82, maybe 81-81.
Oh, and the bullpen blows, might be bottom five. Iglesias as a closer is brutal, and it doesn't get better from there.

**eeezzzz** · 08-06-19, 06:56 PM

I think they have a very good chance. Unlike the AL wild card the Nl wild card is wide open. The Met's are loaded and under performed early in the year and are making ground now. The schedule is tough with Cleveland and ATL, but I think they will squeeze enough games in and I believe they will crush the Phillie's to catapult themselves into the playoffs.
