I'd like to thank the Mets for making me feel better about my own team (as usual).

Still got fucking robbed.

 

[Maxim726X]

Um... What the fuck?

So no deal? How could this news have circulated without it being true?

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 1m1 minute ago

Most logical explanation is that #Brewers were uncomfortable with Wheeler’s medical coming off Tommy John. Players were agreed upon.

 

[Malvingt2]

Wilmer Flores cried for nothing.

Well not for nothing.

 

[Grover Cleveland]

At least Sandy didn't give an average pitcher an 80 million dollar extension before he ever pitched a game for the club just for shits and giggles.

[jello44]

ASTROS BACK ALONE IN FIRST!

 

[darkside31337]

maybe he was crying because he knew the deal -wasn't- happening.

 

[TraBuch]

Trade Rusney after swinging at that pitch.

John Hart is ready to offer Shelby Miller and Ozzy Albies.

 

[Enron]

Still got fucking robbed.

pls. Olivera is going to be a good one, braves wont have to pay him too much, and they've got an army of SPs waiting to replace wood in the minors. Ain't skeered.

 

[Crud]

GOT DAT W GO ASTROS! WE #1 BABY!

 

[Loco4Coco]

Guess this means the Trout for Gee deal will rekindle.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal
Alderson just told #Mets’ writers “there is no trade” for Gomez and that a deal “will not transpire.”

 

[CheezyMac88]

 

[LJ11]

Crazy night for the Mets, pretty much the usual.

 

[3N16MA]

Mets making up trades just to give their fans hope. "We tried to make a deal but things fell apart." "Enjoy the rest of the season."

 

[rando14]

:jnc

 

[RBH]

:lol :lol

 

[chicagocubsfan]

That Mad dog dude on MLB Network is going to go in on Alderson tomorrow.

I'm done.

Seriously I'm just fucking done.

He's going to be a good one for how long? By the time the Braves are ready to compete, he's going to be 33. And the ceiling for all of those minor league pitchers except for possibly Max Fried (And who knows how he comes back from Tommy John) and Kolby Allard (Who's like..15) are below Alex Wood.

 

[brianjones]

wasted a leadoff triple.. smh

 

[Malo]

WE FUCKING ROBBED THE BREWERS GOOD HOLY SHIT.

SANDY DOES IT AGAIN!!!

Seriously I am on cloud 9 right now.

AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

THEY'RE NOT EVEN REPLACING SEGURA WITH FLORES THEY'RE GONNA PLAY HIM AT THIRD.

Oh man this is amazing.

Seriously this rivals the fucking Dickey trade in how bad we ripped off the Brewers.

Oh man, Sandy I fucking love you.

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT.

I fucking love you Sandy.

RAJ trying to out suck Melvin.

Lmao.

 

[Malvingt2]

Man I can't blame Flores showing emotion. Jesus and the fans didn't help... imo

Joel Sherman ‏@Joelsherman1 3m3 minutes ago

Gomez's camp was told a trade was done pending physicals. I assume the physicals were not approved. #Brewers #Mets

 

[Maxim726X]

I mean, what did the Brewers not like from Wheeler's medical report?

'Ohh shit... He had TJ surgery?? NO DEAL'

Fucking bullshit.

[Frozenprince]

Only reason this didn't happen is because Wheeler's arm is worse than people thought.

Right.

Well.

I'm just done, at this point.

 

[CygnusXS]

Hey, Allard's 17 and you forgot Touki.

But yeah I'm hoping there's still a name or two missing from this deal.

 

[CygnusXS]

I mean, what did the Brewers not like from Wheeler's medical report?

'Ohh shit... He had TJ surgery?? NO DEAL'

Fucking bullshit.

Maybe he has shoulder problems too?

 

[Enron]

Alex Wood is a good 3 or a solid #2. And the Braves have quite literally an army of live arms in the minors to replace him with.

Hart dealt from a position of strength to fill an area of need with a guy who's probably going to be really good for the next 3 or 4 years.

 

[Syrinx]

huh

Alderson blaming it on social media.

Enron pls

 

[GK86]

We need to go back to making fun of the Braves.

 

[CygnusXS]

I guess the lesson is to always wait for an official announcement.

 

[zroid]

apparently this was a Jeopardy question from today :LOL

episodes are of course taped well in advance

[Dominican Power]

Yanquis ain't making a deep playoff run with this shaky ass rotation.

 

[Enron]

http://m.neogaf.com/showpost.php?p=173451225

Enron pls

what the fuck, where was that?

Goddamnit, you posted that at the same time i was looking for the gif and throwing it up on imgur. fuck!

 

[Loco4Coco]

Terry Collins was pissed in the postgame interview, wonder why.

 

[Sanjuro]

Yanquis ain't making a deep playoff run with this shaky ass rotation.

I don't like this passive nonsense. Get an ace, get an outfielder, killadrew.

 

[BigJonsson]

OOOH GIMMIE

The Jays aren't getting Price, it'll cost way too much
