Mets Blown Out in Consecutive NLCS Games | 204

[@ralelunar]

If the Mets lose, I don't want anyone to say, "same old Mets." Because Jolly is right, it's incredibly difficult to get this far into the playoffs. The "same old" Mets would never have gotten this far. Not every good season ends with a trophy, some of them end when you're only a top-4 team, and that's still something to be proud of.

Lmao pathetic

[@chamoisauce7491]

but it kinda is……the entire country was saying “mets in 4,5” then 6 and now 7 and then there are the ppl now crying abt the dodgers yet every single person is except dodger fans doubted them lmao

I'm a lifelong Dodgers fan. You do a great job. I enjoy that you do your homework and know the data and stats. So, even depressed and loving your Mets, I am here tuning in because you breadth of knowledge is really welcome to hear, versus Fox or ESPN clowns.

[@eyesontheinsides]

And enjoying the schadenfreude of the fanbase of the team yours just destroyed isn't part of that? You're here just for ol Jolly? You can tell me. This is a safe space.

It was a good run for them. Thank you Mets for some of the best memories we will have as fans!

[@jpl12-w6y]

Whatever happens today, you have to feel great about this team. What a year they’ve given us, and it’s not over yet. This team will get better this offseason and for the first time in my life as a Mets fan I feel like we’re actually about to be a great team for years to come. This has been a transformational year for the organization and us fans. This is just the start

@@yualwayslyng3701 They're already burning money on 8 guys not even on the team anymore. Saying the Mets have the highest payroll so they should win it all is a lazy argument in this case.

[@michaelsinnott2864]

[@thejeqff]

I still think it's crazy that Jerry said in the preview for this series that the Mets were better on paper. Full disclosure: I'm a Dodger fan, so definitely wearing rose-colored glasses, but these are not equal offenses or bullpens by a long shot. The bottom of the Mets order is fairly manageable to handle; there is no rest in the Dodger lineup. They will grind pitchers down, take pitches, foul stuff off, so even if you get guys out, they are wearing you down. The Mets bullpen - outside of the back couple of guys - are pretty average. The one advantage for the Mets was the rotation, but they rely on clipping the corners, and that doesn't work against this Dodger lineup. I called Dodgers in 5 (though I was expecting the loss to come in NY), and nothing about the results so far surprise me. Maybe the Mets figure it out tonight, but good luck keeping the Dodgers down.

[@MrJwils12]

i cant believe he said the mets are the better team 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 insane stuff

[@anna-vera]

I thought the same thing.

[@thejeqff]

So much for Dodgers in 5. Wasn't a fan of Roberts not pulling Flaherty earlier and getting the pen to help. But glad the Mets rewarded Jolly's faith in the team. Honestly feel like the Dodgers gave the Mets a ton of hope with Manaea on Sunday and another chance to get cuts against Buehler. Could easily go 7 now.

[@MattsYTHandle]

Still proud of this team regardless of the outcome. Incredibly fun season with memories that will last a lifetime

[@brycegreenstein7441]

[@patricksainclair2384]

Winker riding the bench with an over 1.000 OPS is baffling

[@chioj36]

All I can say is - when Lindor had his grand slam in the last game against Phillies, he hardly smiled. And deep down, I knew why. He knew this round was going to be tough. And the Mets and Citi have truly given fans a magical season regardless of what happens tonight.

[@kingofkings7871]

Went 11-2 at all the games i went in person this season this was a hard game to sit through but i loved the ride this team has put us through this season. Its not over til the last pitch is thrown, ya gotta believe

[@1stSuper_baby]

Now that the stench of the Wilpons is dissipating it’s time the Mets started concentrating on drafting and signing guys with the teams in mind that they know they’ll be facing in the post season.

[@edwardcricchio6106]

They still own 5% of the team, if you can believe that. But, what I love the most about the sale to Cohen was, the idiot son Jeff Wilpon is banned from the ballpark. Fred still has a suite, but Jeff is not allowed to attend any games.

[@1stSuper_baby]

@@edwardcricchio6106 Holy shit! Why is that the case?

[@edwardcricchio6106]

@@1stSuper_baby Jeff Wilpon was the real problem. He was disliked by almost anyone who ever had to deal with him. I know the Cohens (Steve and Alex) wanted nothing to do with him. If you recall, he saw himself as a baseball savant. Steve wanted to clean house of anything he had touched, so they told Fred, his 5% would keep his suite, but the idiot son isn't allowed to use it or come inside the ballpark. Fred is still well liked by almost everyone.

[@edwardcricchio6106]

Sometimes rides do come to and end. As much as I have loved what guys like Igelsias have done to help get them to Game 5 of the NLCS, you have to say the ride is ending. OMG was nice but I think we are seeing now what the scouts were seeing about him in the spring. I'm not blaming him for anything. The one thing that you will see is David Stearns learning just what he has to do to improve this team for next year and beyond. Don't be shocked if they let Alonso walk and move Vientos to first and sign Bregman to play 3rd. Watch the outfield be remade as well as the pitching staff. It was fun but as much of a Met fan as I am, the reality is, they are the 6th seed up against the #1 seed in the League Championship Series. The fact MLB has expanded the playoffs the way they have, shows what a difference there is in talent between a #1 seed and a #6 seed.

[@robvegart]

In this series and pretty much throughout with the season with the Mets, they play the same style of all or nothing ball. They don't really have the bats that can turn it on at will (clutch) This team is very much like the 99-2000 team except that the relief is more suspect and the bats are not as savvy or clutch. Lindor Iglesias and a few others pretty much held it together for the duration. I said from before with the comparisons and interleague play, that who ever wins from here. will win it all. This dodger team is a buzz saw. The Mets were not off that long that they lost their mojo. They rode the hot streak for as long as they could, but the dodgers are a team that can turn it on when they need to. This team is deep. My hope is that the Mets take it still yet, or at the least take it to 7 games. I feel its pretty much over though and hopefully the management doesn't ruin what's there with bad decisions. They are an incredible team, but I think the gas tank is running on empty. However be it... Let's Go Mets!

[@danielandrewgrant]

[@danoeel3909]

As a Dodgers fan, i say you should be very proud of the Mets, no disrespect meant, but i don't think too many people outside the fanbase expected them to get this far. They kind of remind me of the even year Giants back when they won 3 world series.. a lot of energy, a lot of camaraderie and, until they played the Dodgers, getting the contribution from all along the lineup.
