As of 6/3, the MLB projections showed the Mets with about an 80% probability of making the playoffs.  As of today, their chances are down to 17%

Still month and a half left in the season. Anything can happen with the amazins. But you cant win when you cant keep guys on the field. F'ing half the team is on the DL.

No its not. Anyone who hates on the Mets hates america. Off to Quantomeno with you!


Collins is on borrowed time, not sure he'll make the end of the season.  I don't care how much Cespedes likes to play golf, you don't play golf on game days, especially in this heat.

Collins isn't a good manager so it wouldn't be much of a loss.

No it wouldn't.  Collins was a good manager for the team when the owners couldn't spend money and he had to deal with rookies and misfits but now the team has some great players that need better on field management than Collins can provide.

Mets have been making a pretty nice run at that wild card. Have to think the Cubs and Nationals are the two best teams in the NL, though. Would like to see the Cubs in the WS.

 


Cubs vs. Indians

 

Then even though I'd be crushed if we lost...I'd at least be happy for the other team.

I admit I'm surprised, the Mets actually seem to have a good chance of playing n at  least one post-season game.

    • It's not Scottie's fault the announcers keep saying that about him, that seems like a silly reason to root for someone else IMO.    I think announcers have at least somewhat of a role in giving amateur golfers unrealistic expectations for what a good shot is. They act like PGA Tour players should make every 8 foot putt and hit it inside 5 feet from 100yds when in reality they only make just over 50% of their 8 footers and tour average from 100yds is around 20 feet.
    • Touche'. Fair point. 
    • I used to find commentators really obnoxious like this, then I watched one of the online streams of the Masters (I think it was amen corner) that had someone commentating on it, but they were literally just stating the name of the player about to hit and their score and other drab stuff. It was so bland I couldn't watch it. Worse than nothing, but I did want to know some of the stuff they were talking about, which is something of a catch-22. I did realize that the commentary team have a pretty rough time of it and do a hard job and some of them do it better than you might realize. 
    • Okay, this is my opinion. But you really should consider getting data. No offense but human memory can be odd. Sometimes we make a long putt early on with our new putter and from that first impression onward you have a "putter that's good for long putts." We may miss our first two short ones and now you have "A putter that doesn't work for short putts". Sometimes these things even out over time, sometimes they don't, but it's often tough to break our first impressions of what's happening.  Plus, let's say that in fact it is true. You putt better from long distance with a broomstick and better from close up with a standard putter. Which one holds more weight? Here's an example. If your short putting is -5 SG (Strokes Gained) and your long putting is +5 SG does that mean your over all putting is 0 SG? What if your overall putting with one putter is -2 SG and +2 SG with the other putter? The answer to which putter should you use is of course is "It depends". BUT.... If you had SG (strokes gained) data for both putters you would know right away which putter is better for you. Or at least you'd have a better idea. This still doesn't take into account the difficulty of where you are playing, and/or the particular days in which you play. We've all had those putting days where it "feels" like everything you hit rolls in. AND... we've all had those days where it "feels" like you can't make a thing.  My best advice is get putting lessons. ... My second best advice is get data.  Unless you just want to get a new putter. Than go ahead. I love shiny things and I'd be the last person to claim I have never replaced a club that was working fine just because I wanted to get a new one. 
    • I think it is only a matter of time before a voiceover app that can be applied to live telecast will come and rescue us one of these days. And I think it will be hilarious.
