Helpful, but they need 2 in the 10th, so the speed of the lead runner is less relevant.

Unfortunately, hitting with men in scoring position is not exactly a strength of the Mets.

Not tht it really matters as Merrill just takes one deep to right for a Pdres walk-off.

Big difference between a 3-1 series win and a 2-2 series split.
Also went from a potential 5-2 vs BAL & SDP to 4-3

Barring a miracle, like a total collapse by the Braves, the Mets play-off hopes are, at best, on life support.

Braves lost today, so while we had a chance to gain ground and lost it, we didn't lose any ground.

I think we can lose the purple stuff.

Watching this one now.

Can't believe it's been a week (ish) already since Quintana last started. Anyway, I know how it ends, so I'll put this here. Quintana, despite his August struggles, his pitched like a solid number three or number four pitcher for the majority of the year.

Through the end of April, his ERA was 3.48. He was roughed up in May to the tune of a 7.20 ERA, but from...

May 16 to today, he's 5-5 with a 3.91 ERA and .227 OBA in 18 starts.

June 15 to today, he's 5-4 with a 3.53 ERA and .213 OBA in 13 starts.

July 4 to today, he's 3-4 with a 4.06 ERA and .216 OBA in 10 starts.

His August has been rough, but he's been solid as a whole.

If the Mets get to the World Series, are you going to watch each game two or three days later?

I watch my Mets games in batches, I have too much other stuff to do to set aside three hours a night to watch a Mets game.

But if they make the World Series, I would likely watch each one as it happens, hopefully.

Well, I finished it.

What a bummer.

The Mets can't afford to lose like this.

The magic number for the Mets to get that last wild card spot, as it stands, is 35 or so. They have 31 games left, which means they have to be almost flawless, or the Braves have to be really, really bad, over the final month for the Mets to secure it.

Well, one of three teams has to falter: the Braves, Diamondbacks, or Padres. I guess you can include the Phillies too, but they'd have to do more than falter.

The playoff hopes do seem to be fading. The Mets need to have a hot September, and that may not be enough.
