    Why is Stokes playing less? Is he hurt again? Or is Nixon really outplaying him that much?

    Looking at those stats man would it be nice to have drafted TJ Watt right now...who did we take instead Kevin King?

    Much respect to Lindor after hitting that salami. He just put his head down and ran the bases. Happen for him to turn it around this season, and he's hurt too battling some back stuff right now I think. Would of loved to see our vets show up like that in our series. After the Mets game ended I flipped to the Royals game, and Costas calling that game tying triple was sooooo bad. So lifeless. To go from the Mets game where the announcers actually cared to that was very shocking. He needs to be gone. Was he ever a really good play by play guy? Or was he always this bland? I just remember him doing the Olympics. He did the World Series for a long time with Uke and McCarver right?

    Agreed I think that's what stings, having Doubs out along with Watson right now. You'd think he'd be looking forward to this opportunity to step up. We need him. Unless he's out of favor with Love or something and there's more internal stuff going on.

    My take on it is it's a reference to the "Thanks for the memories, Brent" Favre shirts that popped up after he was traded to the Jets and more so signed with the Vikings. Lots of people calling him Brent. So Greg sounds like Craig and is the new Brent to Brett if that makes sense.

    I finally read through this thread after being there for Game 1 and 3. Game 3 was just such a swing of emotions so quickly that's what makes it such a kick in the balls. Game 6 2011 you knew it was over right away, Game 7 2018 there really wasn't much to cheer about after the Yeli homer, and getting excited when that guy made that amazing catch and robbed us. This was legit pure joy, it felt like it was "meant to be" that we would win after Game 2 and then the back to back homers from two of the younger/new guys. My buddy and me were hugging random guys in our section, we all had our rally caps on and the guy behind us called the Bauers HR a second before he hit it saying "Watch Bauers is gonna get into one" and it happened! It was pure magic! Then Sal with only 2 HRs all year was the icing on the cake. The crowd was insane. I was in the left field upper level. After the top of the 9th ended I saw a random ball get throw up about halfway up the terrace level. Turn around and realized it was Chourio chucking the ball up that entire way in anger after that inning ended. Pretty insane toss. It's too bad he couldn't get to the plate in the bottom of the 9th.

    Just wanted to let everyone know I'm still watching highlights from last night. That is all. Heading down shortly go crew!

    Would be nice to get a nice comfortable playoff W for a change. No stress. No errors. Just do our thing. We've been better against Quintana lately right? He hasn't owned us as much recently it seems. Would love to see Haase in there but I don't think it happens.
  9. kestrel79
    Dang ok. Their pitch track did look different on TV maybe thats what threw me off.
  10. kestrel79
    Did anyone see the pitch location data for the pitch before Hader gave up the big hit? It looked like a strike to me and he didn't get the call. Would have ended the inning. Next pitch and it's over. I'll check that Umpire scorecard page too.
  11. kestrel79
    I was there. There was very little booing from the crowd. I was impressed actually. The fans were pretty supportive and were still cheering those last 5 innings where nothing happened. No one boo'd Jackson after he miffed that liner after robbing the HR. The loudest boos were for Winker. It did get realllly quiet in there during that 4th inning. You could tell everyone was "oh boy here we go again" as soon as the Mets got on base.
  12. kestrel79
    Wow sure he's not still on the Brewers? :) Good to see him pitch well in the Playoffs at least.
  13. kestrel79
    Rea reminds me of Shawn Marcum in 2011. Amazing regular season, we don't get to the playoffs without him. But he is running out of gas at the end of the season and getting hit hard. I think it's smart leaving him off the roster in this shorter series. Give him a breather, and maybe use him in a 5 or 7 game series if needed.
  14. kestrel79
    Wow I feel dumb for paying full price. Never again. Rick S. took me to the cleaners. Yep it's MLB and baseball's playoff structure's fault for attendance figures. Tuesday night, with school back in session and an early start time it's hard on people who work and who have kids. I'd say upper 30,000s and low 40,000 would be a great crowd. And yes some people are a bit playoff fatigued with playing poorly early in the playoffs the past 5 years I would say as well. If we make the next round people will wake up. Pretty crazy to think that Playoffs and Brewers could become a normal thing. Back in 2008 you weren't sure if it would ever happen again!
  15. kestrel79
    On paper here you'd figure we'd want the Mets coming back to Milwaukee tomorrow tired and gassed so we should be rooting for the Braves here in game 2 right? But it's playoff baseball anything can happen. We still have to do our part regardless of who we are playing tomorrow. But watching the last 3 innings of this game has got me primed and ready for playoff baseball in person tomorrow afternoon. Go crew!
  16. kestrel79
    Wow. And this is why throwing Diaz yesterday seemed odd. What a game!
  17. kestrel79
    Don't the Mets have like a 340 million dollar payroll? Tigers, Brewers, Royals, Guardians are the "feel good stories" yep.
  18. kestrel79
    Wow great stats. It's cool to see the data as to WHY we were so good this past year. It just felt like compared to years past we were always on base, or stealing. Making productive outs. Where in the past too many Ks with RISP or offense that just hit HRs w/ shady D and pitching. I feel like we have to win coach of the year and front office person of the year this year right? Just insane what they were able to do.
  19. kestrel79
    Not as big of a loss as Devin or Woody from the last couple of years, but yep late inning defensive replacement, pinch hit if you need to get a bunt down, pinch runner that can steal and score from 1st late in the game would be nice to have him on the bench.
  20. kestrel79
    Free Haase!
  21. kestrel79
    He's the type of guy that makes me root for him...even if he's a Viking. Love the way he runs too. Very unique style for a RB very long stride. But I still want to beat them.
  22. kestrel79
    Is this the guy that would post on here a few years ago who claimed he was his agent?
  23. kestrel79
    Would love to see Haase get a chance to play and make the Post Season roster. Every time he's in he mashes but that seems to be pretty rare. I'd feel better about him coming off the bench to PH in a Playoff series than Sanchez or Bauers right now.
  24. kestrel79
    I went against my rule and got into the hype and probably over payed at regular price for the WC games...should of just waited just like for concerts.
  25. kestrel79
    Does calling Mis up affect his service time if he plays in Sept or in the Playoffs? No? They must be watching his innings closely playing the long game. But man would be nice to have someone like that come up and give the pen a shot in the arm.
