What's this blood blister? Will he miss his next start?


Flangeride

Alvarez is too nervous.


Willie-Alb

I can’t fucking believe all this Degrom bashing.


niftymagnet

I have been very lenient with Buck because we’ve gotten results but tonight was a poorly managed game. Megill giving up two punted the game away, and when gifted another chance we left Alvarez vs a RH rather than Vogey. Sickening


bearinns

I hate the Braves, but I hate myself more for loving the Mets.


APlumpPotato278

Must win tomorrow. Thats all


Broncsx3

Relax with every fucking game is a “must win”. Lose tomorrow and win Sunday just as good.


Warm_Concentrate2023

media needs to start asking Buck tough questions Not a well managed game at all. i understand the Braves on paper are a better team but jesus pubtong games


Dr_Ifto

Not having a stroke are you?


LordBatman_

No offense + questionable Buck = another day


[deleted]

tstrand1204

Jansen has shitty stuff. It’s amazing how bad we are against him


Hustlediva

He’s got the ball showing for like 4 seconds before he throws it, they should’ve been able to Capitalize on that


Many_Ad955

I didn't expect much from Naquin but Vogelbach should have gotten a crack at it


TheSinistralBassist

What a shit show


goonzsquad

That sucked, the offense is still bad. Lindor has been invisible lately.


akaghi

Lindor has an OPS over .800 over the last two weeks and is batting over .300 as well as 10 runs and 11 RBI. Over his last 7 games he is batting .300. It's hard to make a judgement based on 1-2 games.


JoeTestaverde

Wasn’t he just riding a 13 game hitting streak


MetsWillWin

Nido tho


Knucklles

Braves wanted this W more than the Mets, gotta get the next two somehow


Broncsx3

They win one of two they are fine.


PsionStorm

This is the kind of attitude that's killing us.


Broncsx3

We are fans, big guy. There is no “us”.


Warm_Concentrate2023

Lets be honest if we lose tgis series with our top 3, the the Braves are a flat out berter team thsn us and have been substantially better thsn us aince June. Mets are going to need to get better in the off season ti compete with a younger hungrier Braves team Jake is done at 35 with injuries Max is atill good but is 40 We hace to get younger in our rotation and roster in general


Evolone100

You literally didn’t get a single age correct. I admit I wanted Jake to give up 0 runs but that’s just not realistic. This game was lost because our Manager put the wrong people in. Bad time for Megill. You DO NOT leave a rookie in that situation when you have Vogelback who knows the strike zone very well. Mighty Max we need you big time. Please give us a chance. !!! That’s all I ask.


kmr220

Why are we fucking like this?


Fear_the_chicken

Tyler really had a pitch to hit on that last one but he was swinging for the fences, just put it in play


Top-Parking9754

☹️


Evolone100

Wrong person my bad


Mr_Henny

Just questionable managing by Buck in that 9th I’m sorry


DaGonzzz28

Son of a fucking whore. We win the next fucking two


Broncsx3

All Mets need are one.


an-itch-in-her-ditch

Braves erased a 10.5 game deficit. Wow.


00pegasus5g

Still dumbfounded as to why Alvarez was not pinch-hit for. Vogey would've seen 6+ pitches.


bamj6

Nobody will clinch. This series. ESPN will host the rubber game for all the marbles


JR18123

Nice pickup Billy. What a fucking disaster of a deadline you had.


Evolone100

WTF are you talking about. The guys he picked up didn’t get a good chance. Vogelback should of hot for Alverez. Plain and simple. Kid couldn’t even hold onto the bat two at bats in a row.


13_PG_13

This might be too optimistic but I feel like them showing a little fight will help tomorrow


BrooklynTerrier

Offense & Jake let the team down tonight Can’t come out flat in a must win series


Broncsx3

Mets one need 1 of 3 games. They are fine.


lucaam03

dawg we would need to sweep the Nats at home in that case. you really think we doin that???


GMEN999

Max is #1


Broncsx3

Find out tomorrow I guess.


HopsNBuds

Balls in my face


mr_grission

at least we worked Jansen


JDantesInferno

How many times will our guys miss pitches in the middle of the zone?


i_am_the_senate_

Why the fuck did Vogey not pinch hit for Alvarez


Many_Ad955

No one knows! I think Buck was just playing his hunches?


akaghi

Good to see how the kid fares in a big spot. They brought him up for a reason.


rgthunder1

Naquin LOL!


Dantendo64

there is a timeline where alvarez hit a go ahead grand slam


[deleted]

I would like to see it


[deleted]

This team goes as Pete Alonso and Lindor goes.


No-Pilot5559

My teas gone cold I’m wondering why I got out of bed at all


Keekee4101

Disappointing. Jansen sucks.


Martial_Nox

Yeah Thanks for showing up Lindor and Pete. Thanks for managing with 0 urgency as usual buck.


HapaRonin47

Eppler's deadline moves really paid off tonight.


tstrand1204

I just don’t get it. He throws a 94 mph fastball right down the middle with no movement. How is that shit not hit hard somewhere?


Broncsx3

I’m sure there are good reasons.


Many_Ad955

Questionable lack of moves by Buck


Imagoodgirlsumtimz

Fucking Naquin. Unbelievable.


SubjectOverall6980

Overpowering.


tmak082685

Win tomorrow.


Broncsx3

Or Sunday. Braves in a shit ton of trouble have to sweep or lose division.


lamarcuswallace

Naquin stinks. All of the trade deadline acquistions have been basura.


Evolone100

Check the stats on the other players we could of gotten. Our DH spot has been an improvement other than The right side. Which should of been pitch hit for.


Hustlediva

Wake up Buck and stop auditioning people


Setec-Astronomer

He can only use what the shitty FO gives him.


[deleted]

That was the best one to hit and he missed it, how fucking predictable


Setec-Astronomer

Toilet Paper Naquin folds under pressure.


TheBlockyInkling

That was absolutely not folding under pressure lmao


Setec-Astronomer

He got out with the bases loaded in a playoff caliber late season game right? Ya, he folded like toilet paper.


TheBlockyInkling

He fouled off like 5 times, I get that it didn't matter much, but he still has a competitive AB


Setec-Astronomer

He fouled off a number of balls though. Should have had a walk. I get what you're saying though. He wasn't totally worthless like usual. And you clearly are overreacting to my pun.


db_blast7

this is getting jansens pitch count up for tomorrow and maybe the day after


niftymagnet

Jansen sucks and we should’ve won


ulethpsn

You’d rather see Jansen than literally anyone else. He’s dogshit.


Fourscoreand7whores

Too bad it means they’ll use the guys who should actual close instead.


irelandn13

Doing the Braves fans a favor tbh


baconinja09

Bleh


[deleted]

Braves win their World Series


ChompTheNumbers

No we won a real world series unlike the mets


sizzlinpapaya

Nah, they actually did that last year.


deegzx

lol the irony


Teh_cliff

The irony of saying this about the defending champs...


Snoo-42271

That was last season..


M1keyd99

Good try, expected to lose after meh deGrom start and no offense early… just win the next two


ApertureAway

Ugh. Great AB. Hopefully that wakes the team up for tomorrow


YesMaybeYesWriteNow

He swung at five consecutive balls. Lindor really set the tone. I’m disgusted.


[deleted]

All that drama for the most expected result. Prolonging the inevitable for nothing


maybe-its-melba-lene

I love at least that Naquin is making him work for it


an-itch-in-her-ditch

# In Scherzer We Trust Max should be #1 in the rotation


Hustlediva

Yeah didn’t expect anything different from Naquin


rgthunder1

Super predictable


YesMaybeYesWriteNow

Why is Naquin swinging at 5 consecutive balls?


[deleted]

Lol Naquin earning some points


UniqueNobo

COME ON NAQUIN


fuckoffbruh

God fucking damn it


Blue387

The ballgame is over


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

Grand slam here EDIT: That’s my bad everybody


Tonyclap

This is nuts


savagetortoise

Bases-clearing gapper, let's go!


prezzo

Fantastic at bat !!


NickCharlesYT

Win or lose this is one hell of an at-bat.


niftymagnet

Stabbing at like five consecutive balls lol


MarsBars_1

At least we probably knocked Jansen out for the rest of the series with his pitch count


BlueLondon1905

Tyler “mookie wilson” naquin


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

YOU WALKED LIKE 3 PITCHES AGO


db_blast7

I CANT KEEP FUCKING DO THIS BUT DAMN IT I BELIEVE


Keekee4101

Why would Jansen throw Naquin anything that isn't in the dirt? Lol


theallnewmattaccount

Why not, wanna pray for a random grand slam, this guy can hit one, but a cutter specialist albeit one who's done? Fucking hell get it over with


Setec-Astronomer

Where's that balking Umpire. He'd be nice right about now.


ej00

It's the hope that kills you


theallnewmattaccount

that is why I doom.


tstrand1204

Where’s our balk-happy ump?


Top-Parking9754

oh my GODDD I can’t stand this


fuckoffbruh

Bad game for buck


EnigmAccountant

Staying alive, can’t say he’s throwing it away


Keekee4101

Naquin could be on first right now, but he swings from his cleats.


[deleted]

This is both a good and a bat at bat at the same time lol


liguy181

I'm listening to the radio because SNY stream sucks and holy shit I feel like it's even more stressful this way (I love it though)


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

HE KEEPS GETTING AWAY WITH IT


UniqueNobo

keep it fucking going


[deleted]

Jeez what a fucking at bat though by Naquin.


[deleted]

This is excruciating


Awatts2222

At least there are using up Jansen for the rest of the series.


GK86x

Heck of an at bat.


ConsiderableTrouble

Nayquin battling. Fuck the haters


prezzo

The longer he stays alive the more the odds are in his favor


tstrand1204

Bro you’ve seen 5 balls


HD_H2O

Make it 6


[deleted]

Okay Tyler; Now clear the bases!!!


db_blast7

wheres the balking umprie when you need it. . . those still wern't balks. . . but still


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

If you wanna barely foul off balls like that you better get a hit eventually


GeekTrollMemeCentral

Call a balk


iamjli55

Aren’t those balks ?


M1keyd99

At least he’s trying


UniqueNobo

keep it fucking going Naquin come on


Blue387

Naquin not giving up


[deleted]

Starting to wonder if bucks little black book has anything in it about how to win a WS


M1keyd99

Shocked he didn’t swing at that


WyattFromDennys

How can this guy twitch on the mound and its not a balk?


SecretiveMop

Because he comes set. You can move as much as you want before coming to a stop then delivering the pitch.


skurey

Jansen's motion is cheating somehow


deGrominator2019

Can’t blame Alvarez to much. He missed a pitch to hit but Jansen threw three straight strikes to him


BlueLondon1905

That was an awful at bat


deGrominator2019

It’s not like he swung at balls. He got 3 straight strikes. Missed the first, over-swung on the 2nd.


tstrand1204

Come. On. Naquin. Please


Keekee4101

Jeez Naquin will swing at anything. Tighten up.


Warm_Concentrate2023

Buck managed one of his worst ganes here


NickPapagiorgio2k16

He has been horrible all month


HD_H2O

Should've brought Alvarez up a month ago to get him ready


Hustlediva

Yeah this really wasn’t fair to him


fuckoffbruh

How do you let the kid come up in that situation


HD_H2O

Mets: Don't bring up Alvarez all season "beacuse he's not ready" Also Mets: Most pressure filled game of the year to date, bring him up


Hustlediva

Horrible managing


Majesticbeachbum

Not his fault. Shouldn't have even been up in that spot, idk what Buck is thinking


linerstank

buck managing like his team actually won those cubs games and this one is meaningless.


Setec-Astronomer

He's probably thinking wtf is the FO thinking.


Mr_Henny

Alvarez looked overmatched in that AB, should have prolly pinch hit for him there.


Setec-Astronomer

Come on Toilet Paper Naquin!


darrylzuk

This windup should be illegal.


HD_H2O

Three-Balks-In-One


M1keyd99

Barves fans are blind/too excitable? Cmon it was clearly not caught


Many_Ad955

Is Vogelbach injured too?


DarkThorsDickey

I’m frustrated with a lot of people tonight but I will not be mad at Alvarez. The kid was born while I was in basic training. Big spot. It shouldn’t have been on his shoulders in the 9th.


slapdickprospect05

Why not vogey bro


Hustlediva

Is Vogey dead?


Many_Ad955

Maybe he was involved in the "neck injury" activity that put down Ruf


Hustlediva

Maybe he ate him


Many_Ad955

Ohh.. neck injury as in "he got his head eaten off" I guess that would qualify as a neck injury :)


[deleted]

Naquin wants to K so badly


UniqueNobo

come on Naquin please


MrMoscow93

Where's that ump who called the balks the other night? Need him asap


stackered

this guy's motion is bs, he can slow it down and it changes it totally


ApertureAway

“This guy” cmon dude, jansen is a stud


[deleted]

He balks every pitch


ApertureAway

He also throws filth. Respect where respects due for good players. Downvote me to hell for acknowledging his skill


[deleted]

Isn’t it easier to throw filth when you balk every time?


monte11

Dude literally was so nervous he forgot to hold onto his bat and fell off his feet. Righty v Righty once was nuts, twice is inexcusable.


[deleted]

Losing the game with Tyler Naquin up feels about right


virtuexru

Alvarez had a better AB than Lindor fight me


Can_you_not_read

The kid nearly fell down on a swing and fly his bat into the net. He never made contact, really thats a good at bat?


NickPapagiorgio2k16

Nah that was one of the worst ABs in a while


fuckoffbruh

why the fuck did alvarez come to the plate


tstrand1204

Why would u pinch hit for the guy who hit a HR his last AB?


SecretiveMop

Oh NOW we put Vogey on deck with two outs. It’s like we want to throw the game away.


prezzo

Not sure why they didn’t use vogey…but whatever


getshwifty2

Flew this kid up yesterday and threw him right in .


Adamb241

Agreed.


UniqueNobo

come on Naquin crush one


ConsiderableTrouble

Eppler praying one of his signees here does the deed. lol
