It's a partisan political war! Everyone can speak for 5 minutes as the NL East Champs face the Mets at Citi Field. This game won't feel anti-climactic after last night, right?

What's at stake for the Mets?

Jason Vargas (6.25, 6-9, 78 K, 1.49 WHIP) for the Mets and, obviously, Julio Teheran (4.03, 9-8, 157 K's, 1.19 WHIP) for the Braves, making his 27th start against the Mets this season (26 IP, 1.69, 0.98 WHIP). Jose Lobaton has 2 HR's off Teheran as does Jay Bruce. Vargas has a 6.14 ERA v ATL this year (14.2). Markakis has 2 HR off Vargas, like that's difficult.

No Freddie Freeman for ATL.

METS:
1. Brandon Nimmo (L) CF
2. Amed Rosario (R) SS
3. Jeff McNeil (L) 2B
4. Michael Conforto (L) LF
5. Jay Bruce (L) RF
6. Todd Frazier (R) 3B
7. Dominic Smith (L) 1B
8. Kevin Plawecki (R) C
9. Jason Vargas (L) P

Braves:
1. Ronald Acuna Jr. (R) CF
2. Ozzie Albies (S) 2B
3. Nick Markakis (L) RF
4. Kurt Suzuki (R) C
5. Johan Camargo (S) 3B
6. Charlie Culberson (R) SS
7. Adam Duvall (R) LF
8. Ryan Flaherty (L) 1B
9. Julio Teheran (R) P

Starting pitchers haven't been touched this series.

And Teheran is finished, as the Braves look past this series to the post-season.

Let's get Lobaton in there and see if we can get three catchers in the home run column.

Frazier better have a big fat stupid awesome season next year. Because he's sure been a dispiriting presence this one.

Two-out in the ninth, an 0-2 count, and you peg the guy?

Who dared mock Vargas in the thread's first post?
Nice win. The quest for 3rd continues tomorrow.

That was the best pitch I've seen Gsellie snap off in at least a month.

Vargas final ERA is 5.77. Clearly a great option for next season. No need to spend on the rotation this winter!
