fuck you red Sox and fuck you Yankees.

 

[Choomp]

Which is why I laugh at some of the mets posts in the thread. This is a different team. Have proven that countless times in the past month. Even on games when the lose (like the Marlins), they still fight back.

I think I'm convinced now. Was pretty close to turning this game off, would never think the shitty Nats pen would fall into a Cespedes AB with the bases juiced. This is a legit playoff team, finally.

 

[Ilive1up]

what a ny mets win. wow.

 

[Doogdogg]

Ogando = Automatic L

Sorry Yanks, we're not all blessed with GOAT bullpens

I'm surprise they kept it to 1 run prior to Ogando with Bautista, Donaldson, E5 having like 10 chances to hit with runners on.

 

[JDHarbs]

feels good to stop that losing skid

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Mets are on another level.

 

[zroid]

they are this year's A's

But the A's made the playoffs last year.

This year's 2013 Blue Jays might be more appropriate... lol

 

[Velcro Fly]

8-0 to start the inning

tying run now at the plate

 

[Grover Cleveland]

While yall were too busy watching the Mets not Mets, the Cubs are currently Cubbing

 

[BumRush]

Honest question...could cespedes win NL MVP?

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Honest question...could cespedes win NL MVP?

no, unless Harper turns into a pumpkin for the rest of the season and Cespedes goes on a tear

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Cubs BP ((((((((

 

[BumRush]

no, unless Harper turns into a pumpkin for the rest of the season and Cespedes goes on a tear

In terms of most value though, look at what the Mets have done post-cespedes.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

In terms of most value, look at the season Bryce Harper is having. It's not even close right now.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Cubs-Mets NLCS sounds fun.

I'm down with this because it means Dodgers first round exit!

 

[GK86]

no, unless Harper turns into a pumpkin for the rest of the season and Cespedes goes on a tear

He is turning into one this series. He hasn't shown up at all.

But yeah, Harper is gonna win it.

 

[PROh1bited]

This year's 2013 Blue Jays might be more appropriate... lol

The Jays in 2013 were shit from game 1 and on.

 

[Syrinx]

Harper, as much as I hate everything about him and froth at the oppurtunity to heckle him to all hell during that final series, is still the clear NL MVP.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Fernando Rodney in the 8th.
Oh no.

 

[Frozenprince]

If the Tigers were in the NL Cespedes would have an argument.

A month and 8 days does not an MVP make. Still clearly Harper.

What you mean, Jackie Bradley Jr. can't be AL MVP?

Damnit

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Hadn't actually looked at Harper's numbers hard in a while but holy shit Bryce Harper

He's not even 23 either

 

[jello44]

Bases loaded with one out and no runs scored?

That's my Astros.

 

[BumRush]

Jesus, I looked too. What an absolutely insane season. His WAR is 8+, too.

 

[jello44]

>Billy Burns home run

Oh fuck me

 

[Syrinx]

Harper gonna get paid out the ass if he pulls off something even close to this season next season.

 

[Link]

Just got out of work. Got busy and stopped following when the score was 7-1 Nats.

HOLY SHIT!!

 

[Dominican Power]

How you bring up Cespedes over Goldschmidt? smh

 

[Doogdogg]

McCarver said strikeout come from chase pitches on letter high, Bryant swung a pitch in the dirt.

 

[zroid]

How you bring up Cespedes over Goldschmidt? smh

and isn't Votto having a better season than Goldy too?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Honest question...could cespedes win NL MVP?

Clown as fuck question bro.

I think because the Matt Williams is steering the Nationals into hell people seem to have this perception that Bryce Harper has tailed off too, but he's having a season for the ages (especially considering his age). If you are just going by offensive numbers, he's having a better season than Mike Trout has ever had, and you probably have to go back to prime Pujols or pre-steroids Bonds to find a season like this. He's the runaway MVP.

 

[Dominican Power]

and isn't Votto having a better season than Goldy too?

Hell no

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Those rosy Mets colored glasses.

Harper will look great playing left at the Ravine.

 

[cashman]

The Braves have been officially eliminated from the NL Wildcard

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

and isn't Votto having a better season than Goldy too?

He has a BB% of 20.5%... and a K% of 18.3%

Can't say I expected Votto to come back like this, well, ever

 

[HarryDemeanor]

The Braves have been officially eliminated from the NL Wildcard

Is this the year Braves fans get their wish? Will they rid themselves of the human slug known as Fredi Gonzalez?

If you've been reading I checked Harper's stats and agree he is the clear cut MVP, having a remarkable season. As for the Goldy and Votto arguments, I don't think that's so clear cut (diamondbacks are 6 games below .500 and the reds are one of the worst teams in the MLB). Regardless, harper is going to win it so the discussion isnt necessary.

 

[Syrinx]

Just looked at the 7th inning in the Mets-Nats game.

Walks. Walks everywhere.

What a complete and thorough chokejob.

 

[Dominican Power]

Why wouldn't he come back? One down year doesn't spell doom for a hitter. Look at Tex and A Rod beasting at their old age. Votto is relatively young.

I just wanted to use "clown question bro" in my post.

 

[3N16MA]

I'd go to games in Toronto any day over the morgue that is the new Yankee Stadium.

Talk about a place that has no personality. All that heritage, all that passion, and all that money and they make that?

What exactly makes Rogers Centre better? The influx of fans over the last month a half that has finally brought some noise to the place?

 

[sf2fanatic]

Damn too many people to keep for next years gaf league.


Goldy
Altuve
Votto
Price
Archer


Redsgaf/Vas, what you guys gonna do with Suarez? He's had a good productive year.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

He's 31, coming off an injury, and having maybe his best year

I figured he would be good again, but not this good

 

[3N16MA]

He has a BB% of 20.5%... and a K% of 18.3%

Can't say I expected Votto to come back like this, well, ever

I thought he would still be an elite player. He did not have a decline over several seasons he simply missed time over one season.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Joe Panik finally back and we're playing like a Major league team again! .... But too late :/

 

[3N16MA]

Harper is having a record setting type of season offensively. We're talking about 2003/2008 Pujols type numbers and better in some areas.

He is playing at a whole tier above Votto and Goldie.

 

[Parch]

Mr. Scully doesn't do road games much anymore does he?
He's always been the Dodgers MVP.

 

[zroid]

Seager is a monster

 

[Windu]

Is this the year Braves fans get their wish? Will they rid themselves of the human slug known as Fredi Gonzalez?

They didn't even fire him after 2011, they won't fire him anytime soon.

No not much. Since Anaheim is local he'll announce them
