The year is 2007, the Mets have a 15 game lead.

10 K, 0 BB, 0 ER for flexen tonight.

F

>Endless shitposts in February about how the Mets were going to win the division
>Selling in July

What did they mean by this?

You do realize we were optimistic in that period right? We weren't expecting everyone to die. Also, conforto ground rule double

Conforto is as good as anybody offensively. A guaranteed HOFer

F

just heard the news. oh well. sup guise.

Rest in pieces duda. I hope smith (drew) turns out to be a great reliever

D. Smith is going to be our best player.

F

And really only a one for one trade?

I hope flexen gets a no no tonight

i was checking his stats, he's got 2 no-no's and a 6-1 record with 1.74 era, it sounds great on paper but i've never seen him. at the same time, if he's this nice, why hasn't he been activated sooner is what i'm thinking, but i guess we'll find out tonight.

>why hasn't he been activated sooner

He was never considered a promising prospect and he's still only in AA

>if he's this nice, why hasn't he been activated sooner is what i'm thinking
he was in AA, he only got activated because Wheeler died. We WERE supposed to have SP depth, I know it might be hard to imagine that

And they somehow got a run

He isn't too big of a prospect, so that's why. At least he seems better then fucking matz

Also, dads defense fucks up AGAIN.

Why don't i kill myself

I'm surprised this perdomo guy has never established himself, he has great stuff.

ah I read it wrong, i thought flexen came from triple a. ok that makes sense.

Well, this perdomo guy seems like he struggles. A lot. At least the ballpark is nice.

flexen looks shook. i am werried.

F

Now things get interesting

I think he's just ugly.

So will we see a great play or will he be a terrible pitcher (sadly)

WELP

pottery

uh oh

welp.

Holy shit this poor kid got a home run hiy against him for his first batter against.

A hearty kek

He's just copying Matz's debut, he's gonna drive in 4 now.

Okay this is not going well take him out

he's actually copying Matz from last night

>Opponents rookie debut by pitching a Cy Young worthy gems against the Mets
>Mets rookie debut by spilling spaghetti against the Padres

Mama Flexen is cute.

how the fuck did travis not get the out there? terrible umpire

Out

Terrible fucking call. Between this shit and the umps acting like babies today MLB needs to step up their shit.

We had so many rookies making their first starts against us last year. Remember urias?


Also how the fuck is that safe?

he's out my a mile wtf are they challening for.

>mike myers

Wow this ump is terrible

did this ump seriously blow two calls at the plate in a row lmao

What the fuck is up with the tag outs tonight?

He was right this time

No one gives a fuck your shit team is out of contention since May

>this inning

Leave him alone guys, it's not his fault he's nervous.

Are we ready for some great shitposting? Plus 4CC tommorow

calm the fuck down man

Is this a new meme? Who cares about either of these shitty teams?

HR incoming

Conforto will look good in pinstripes

T.Gnats fan who seethes when they lose in the playoffs

he already does

You mean like he does half the time?

Nice swings and misses

He's already wearing them

it's a classic 'two shittiest teams from east coast and west coast' meme. m's have consistently finished dead last or close to last in their division almost every year for decades. i can't wait, i have irl friend who's a m's fan, dis gon' b gud.

I'm a M's fan as well for being a Mets fan, which sucks because everything is utter shit

i figured it out, flexen has val kilmer ugly face.

Eh, kind of.

Speaking of not keeping the ball down

jesus i can't wait for cabrera to get fucking traded

wew lads. wtf assdribble.

Who the fuck wants cabrera

Flexen must be pissed at himself.

He's actually drawn more interest than anyone but Reed/Blevins, weirdly enough

So assuming that assdribble and reed are traded to Milwaukee, who'd we get?

probably a top 100 prospect, if the brewers have one. maybe some other low A guys

they have 6

right, I always forget most teams that aren't the Mets have a decent amount

would like to get a quality infielder or starter

Looking over the prospect list I like Keston Hiura. He's been tearing up the low minors, is only 20, and can potentially play a variety of positions including infield and maybe even CF. Seems underrated to me based on ranking.

I think we are good in CF if lagares actually starts to fucking play. I'd want to see them get a third baseman or a fucking catcher honestly, because that's a weakness. Also, maybe some speed is needed because this roster is slow

Do you guys think Lugo, Reed, and Rene to the cubs in exchange for Candelario, Happ or Baez, and maybe a low-level pitching prospect is a fair trade?

Lagares is injured and also why would he ever have been regularly playing this season?

Well fuck. Lagares seems to get hurt every year for some reason. I checked that brewers prospect and he's a second baseman, which is needed but maybe rosario can fill that role as well

i wonder why they dont encourage running with some people though
im sure conforto has speed and we know reyes was a bag theft back then, if we just had a good medical staff we'd keep all of their hamstrings in check

Flores and TJ can both play 2B well and we can probs resign Walker for super cheap since he's been injured most of this season and he was underrated to start with

>Degrom in the batting circle with 3 man bench tonight

Collins what the fuck are you doing?

Well, speed is a obvious need, and people who can throw out base runners, as shown by that world series

Walker probably will leave on us and return to pittsburgh just because he "didn't feel right" here.

conforGOAT

Rosario will be our starting shortstop next year bar catastrophe, TJ Rivera will likely be our 2B unless we sign someone. You do not know very much about state of the Mets do you?

It's the loyaltyb owl

Guess this is the only game on. Thanks for Duda metcucks.

Hi! I remember you..

Jay Allen Bruce for two extra months
I never knew I wanted this

STOP FOLLOWING ME MOTHERFUCKER

Why? I'm a fun person, and mostly cartilaginous

I'm from San Diego and I wish the Padres left town instead of the Chargers.

:(

>Poordres

what did he mean by this

You've awakened the dragon, you can't stop us now
