Jamie_B Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 They do this every year, they suck for half a season and play really well for half of it. Untill they put it together for a full one Im not going to be fooled only to get my heart broken again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Considering the Mets were the hottest team in baseball coming in, I don't mind splitting with them. Yeah, we should have won Thursday, but Edinson just didn't have it yesterday. Hopefully that was due to the all star break, and not a sign of a trend.

bgwilly31 Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 yeah guys. We've been saying pretty much all year now. This team is not going to the playoffs. Well coming out of the gate after the all star break against teams you should really be beating and and your 2-3. Kiss any chances goodbye. The simple fundamentals is just what absolutely erks me about this team. For example. Bases loaded 2 outs Jay bruce comes up to the plate. ALL impatient and shit like usually. Well to my surprise the pitcher throws two straight balls way out of the zone. 2-0 count. OK pause for a second. This is the situation where you arent even thinking about taking the bat off your shoulders unless you get a fastball or a hanging curveball that is (YOUR) MEAT pitch. So basically you have a take sign for everything but your meat ball. I called it before the pitch. A low outside dayum near bounced off the plate breaking ball and BRUCE IS SWINGING> I just cant stand to watch that kind of baseball. Its seriously so bad its non-entertaining anymore. You guys know what happened next in that AB> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I agree though... i got him on one of my fantasy teams, and when he did pitch those 4 days in a row, hell I sat him on my bench thinking noone in their right mind would pitch a closer 4 days in a row... He got the save but he hasn't been right since... it's bull shit b/c he's killing my save stats... I expected much more out of him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
