@Killthorne I figure it's immediately online, not going to waste my time with football.
@JungleJim consensus among Mets fans was Astros needing to win. Thanks/Nats divides us between fans in the city and fans outside the city.
Mets last chance for a bit is likely next year. We've sacrificed a lot of the farm system for the team on the field.
Astros are putting almost the same team on the field next year as well. Cole is the biggest name going to FA next year. JV, Greinke, Springer, Correa, Altuve, all returning.
They can take this year all they want, but they're probably going to elevate my blood pressure next Oct...if all goes well in Queens.
Manny Machado - Padres - 12 mill
Bryce Harper - Phillies - 11.54 mill
Craig Kimbrel - Cubs - 43 mill
Dallas Keuchel - Braves - 21.21 mill
Four players who waited to get what they felt they were worth.
Three of them didn't even make the playoffs. The one who did didn't even get out of the first round.
Not the most enviable of first seasons on a new contract for any of them.
@chaddus I didn't like it for... similar reasons to why I don't like The Langoliers.
Mets finish the season with a walk off and a sweep of the Division winning Braves.
I'll take it. Good ending note, all things considered.
-10 games over .500
-Likely repeat cyGrom
-Likely ROY Polar Bear
-Rookie HR record from likely ROY
-And if he hadn't been injured, McNeil would have owned the batting title by a mile.
Is it Feb 22 yet? I'm going to miss them this winter, but I'm excited for what 2020 brings.
Movie fan. Mets fan. I like to travel. Once scored a goal against a Jamaican soccer team in Cuba.
