NLDS Game 4 IGT 10/9/2024: PHI@NYM — The Wonder of it All

Post by G-Fafif » Wed Oct 09, 2024 6:57 am



One of Carlos Mendoza’s postgame presser mantras, especially when asked about how well the Mets are playing, is “we haven’t done anything,” a message which seems to have filtered down to the players, all of whom are so much calmer in discussing winning games than they are while winning them. So much fun to watch play ball, so reassuring to listen to afterwards.

Oh, they’ve done a few things, but keep acting like you haven’t. Whatever works. Quintana vs. Suarez for the chance to celebrate at Citi Field. But don’t tell them that. They just have to play their game, starting at 5:08 PM on FS1, pass the baton, and personify the other practiced expressions of determination they’ve perfected.

’Til they reach the highest ground.

The past week and a half have been one long happy blur. May it continue.

Ranger Suarez has good overall numbers, but has struggled in the second half. 5.65 ERA, 1.691 WHIP.

I can't help but think this reminds me of the Frankie Montas game meaning the Mets are gonna lose tonight.

It’ll forever been the Foxwoods Resort Casino turning point of the game for me.

Not taking their lefties out (Stott, Wilson) vs Quintana. OK by me.

Bartolo Colon will catch Murphy’s first pitch.

FS1 is your network at 5:08. The West Coast Game doesn’t start until 9:08,so unless there are A LOT of extra innings, there shouldn’t be overlap necessitating FS2.

Could be typo on the site I saw (Yahoo sports).

As for Ashie's post, "Good morning to all on this high holy Mets day"
I have no idea what that means.

I think he's saying that today is a day that the Mets can advance to the LCS. We don't get many days like that.

I had three weeks of hair and beard this morning. I have a
thing tomorrow where I wanted to look more human and
younger so it's all gone. Bald and clean shaven.

An hour later I thought about the game. My god, what have I done...

This is going to be a high scoring crazy as batshit game

Ranger Suarez can be had early

The only thing going against the Mets is that someone here felt the need to shave for a "thing"
