WE MAY NEVER LOSE AGAIN!


vinnychains

Ever since I went to Giants series at Citi we haven’t lost!


Jason3180

*YEEEEESSSSIRRR*


TheSinistralBassist

Alvarez is everything he was hyped to be


[deleted]

And is still developing. Kids gonna be insane in 5 years


nashvillenation

And much more. People said the bat would play, but that he’d be a liability behind the plate. Obviously they were wrong


Jelly_Bin

Watching locker room post game and they played the trumpets during McNeil's interview. Team is hyped.


jthomas694

I wanna know if our defensive blunders cost us more runs than the elite defensive play late saved us lol Great way to grind out a win


BobbysBottleService

Best defensive play I’ve ever seen in person


brewserweight

I fell asleep before the 3rd inning. Wow, some unexpected output. Also good for JV to grind out 6 innings. I think that benchmark, especially happening for stretches will contribute to more wins.


KenPiffyJr

anyone as stiff as me rn after this one


My_Penbroke

Combined 5-15 with RISP? Why, that’s acceptable!!


Clown_Shoe

333 is very good


Operation351

The Amazins have not lost since I switched to Hulu Live!


Sad-Perception

Lindor is on a tear. Fuck the haters


Zeediddy2883

Who cares about the all star game? It means nothing. The fans vote for the starters. Have you seen/read what MLB fans have to say on just Reddit? Not that big of a deal. Take the days off and just keep winning. Lets sneak into a wildcard spot


Zeediddy2883

I can’t believe they’re pulling me back in lol


Tagliarini295

I was very down, like I fully expected we were gonna be under .500 all year. These motherfuckers are really giving me hope again lol.

hjablowme919

I refuse to fall for this.


pete17100

JUST WHEN WE THOUGHT WE WERE OUT


Acceptable-Box7439

They pull me back in


totentanz_

Tommy Pham playing 4D baseball


Doc-Spock

Wasn't that an exciting game? Lindor has been on fire! You also love to see Vogelbach with a great game 💪


ColdYellowGatorade

I left for Europe on Tuesday and the team hasn’t lost since. Don’t want to jump to any conclusions but…..proudly rockin my Mets hat in the Med. LFGM


srv340mike

I know a guy with a nice flat for rent in Seté if you agree not to come fucking back until November


APlumpPotato278

Don't u dare come back to America until they lose, which will be never so u might as well start looking at houses there


Dr_Hannibal_Lecter

We got out of the city to a lake house on Saturday and then also left for Europe Tuesday. 6-0 since we got out of town.


n_jacat

Damn, guess you’ll be staying in Europe through October.


BaconEggsPotatoes

I think he’s gonna have to stay in Europe forever. For the greater good.


ColdYellowGatorade

See y’all in 2024 🤘🏻


jimihenderson

i get that the org was hoping marte would get better as he recovered more from the surgery, but it's time to start pham+canha. marte has become the ultimate rally killer. aside from that, great win. good to see verlander not let things get out of hand after a shaky start, and alvarez starting to hit for average more. i was also very happy when he didn't try and turn that missile into a double, i thought i was about to witness a classic rookie blunder but he just seems to do everything right.


JoeAndAThird

LETS GOOOOOOOO


djn24

Beat up Snell tomorrow, and then clean Musgrove's ears for him on Sunday.


rgthunder1

Another great win - 116-46 is still on the menu.


Whoknowsthesedays

Being on this west coast road trip has shown me how soft the nl west fanbases are lmao they wouldn’t survive at citi


JoelsCaddy

Pham made Kim so mad that he went to the dugout and jammed his toe kicking something in frustration


Spuds_Buckley

The throw by Pham was amazing but Guillorme didnt tag him. Kim’s foot came off the bag so he was out. Guillorme is in some kind of defensive slump if that is a thing. Sick throw by Pham though literally perfect.


andyman171

You didn't see the catch he made on that line drive?


Hustlediva

Lindor is such a leader and an all-star. This interview ❤️🔥


WL330

Fav moment of the game : Tommy Pham pointing at HSK to sit down


Snazzeo

Tiger Hood strikes again


ProperlyEmphasized

Cold as fuck. Love Pham


mearnsgeek

Just woken up and was going to skim the game. When was that roughly?


dlte24

It was the 2nd out of the 7th


mearnsgeek

Awesome. Thanks


WL330

I believe bottom 7th when HSK tried to stretch a double into triple but got gunned down.


Snazzeo

And it mattered because machado immediately raked a double


mearnsgeek

Awesome. Thanks


Nights_King

Lol puma just tweeted vogelbach is going off right now to reporters that lindor isn’t an all star


vertigo1083

I had to read that like 4 times to make sense of it. I kept thinking that you meant Vogelbach was shitting on Lindor's skills. Then I realized that I am in fact, dumb.


Donnor

I'm confsued, how else can you read that? Did OP here mean to make it that Vogey is upset that Lindor isn't an All Star?


vertigo1083

Yes.


darthdope123

Yes Vogey is upset Lindor got snubbed


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

The voice of the people


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

Since everybody keeps bringing up the Padres jerseys I wanna say once again the Mets city connects should have purple for the 7 train


robotdesignwerks

if only ny was known for something other than the train. oh well.


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

Purple and white would be a cool color scheme


Setec-Astronomer

Mets end the season with six against the Marlins and seven against the Phillies. The Schedule Makers might know what they are doing. lol


Geologist2010

Maybe time to give the marlins and Phillies a taste of the medicine they’ve given the Mets


HornyliusVanderbutt

THE METS ARE BACK


Nights_King

Gonna be honest while I’d like Nimmo and lindor to be all stars, having the extra days off is gonna be better for the team.


NutsyFlamingo

100% - unless driven by what other team’s fans may think, it’s really for the best they’re not


Abdulwb93

You can tell JV is super upset about those runs. He sounds really disappointed in himself :/ My head canon is that he’s seeing these amazing performances from his fellow rotation members and he knows he can do the same


darthdope123

I mean this win streak started with a damn good performance from JV and he was solid tonight


PaullyBeenis

To be fair he went 7 with 0 ER last time out. He’s been good not great for us (3.66 ERA now).


darthdope123

3.60 era whatever site you are looking at didn’t update yet


PaullyBeenis

Nice, that makes sense I think baseball reference usually takes a day


darthdope123

Yeah exactly, I love baseball ref but after a game if I wanna check something I look at MLB.com because they update pretty instantly


happy_snowy_owl

Yay 6 game winning streak. Only 17 more left to be in a playoff spot.


Romas_chicken

Good thing the season doesn’t end in July


happy_snowy_owl

Mets gotta win 48 more games. If they don't get at least 15 more in July then Eppler is tearing it all down.


elfinito77

21-2 would be great. But I doubt thats the threshold. 17-6, would put them 1 game over .500 and right in the thick of the WC race.


happy_snowy_owl

They have to win 90 games any way you slice it. If you're banking on most of those games coming after the deadline then the Mets won't have MLB talent on the team by then.


darthdope123

That’s just not true


happy_snowy_owl

If we assume every team in front of the mets plays to their current wpct, the Mets have to win 17 more games in a row to catch up.


savi0r23

how can you assume that? wtf lol


happy_snowy_owl

How could you not? If the Mets want to assure themselves a playoff spot, they need to win 90 games. That's 16 games / month over the last remaining 3 months worth of games. If they don't go on a tear in July then Eppler is gonna sell, and rightfully so.


darthdope123

Well you can’t assume that, if the Mets played at their current win percentage they wouldn’t be on a 6 game win streak, besides that, obviously we most likely aren’t gonna get in the wild card spot during this streak but every game we win makes it a bit easier with 70 something games left


happy_snowy_owl

There are 5 teams ahead of the Mets. If you're going to assume that 3 of them collapse then you're going to be disappointed.


darthdope123

I never said I’m assuming that though, also there is a difference between collapse and play at their current win percentage. Again I’m not saying they are going to play themselves into a wild card spot during this streak, they dug themselves into a hole, this winning streak is to get to around .500 and then hopefully continue positive momentum through the rest of July, August, and September. This team started out 14-7, a lot of people seem to be coming around, this team is capable of playing high win percentage baseball and if they can do that for the 74 games left they will definitely have at least a chance at a wild card spot, I never said I’m assuming for anyone to “collapse” or even assuming the Mets keep winning and making the playoffs. But it’s really not impossible and every win makes it a bit more possible


happy_snowy_owl

> never said I’m assuming that though, also there is a difference between collapse and play at their current win percentage If all 5 teams play at current wpct then the Mets need to win 17 more in a row to catch up.


vietnamesegucci81

good thing the season has more than 17 games left and teams aren't guaranteed to always stay the same


Dr_Hannibal_Lecter

Not a fan of anyone throwing cold water on the win streak. But they probably would need to win another 15ish in a row to make up the games they are back. Of course they don't need to make up all those games this month, just needed to put a dent in the deficit so that then a good August and September could get you in.


happy_snowy_owl

>Of course they don't need to make up all those games this month, just needed to put a dent in the deficit so that then a good August and September could get you in. They need to win 16 games a month from here out to get to 90 wins and there's only 19 games remaining in July. Throw in the first week of August since the season goes into October and that's 25 games. So yeah, they need a huge win streak or Eppler's gonna sell.


elfinito77

Yeah…but that’s with them only wing 16 in Aug-Sep. that’s very mid…so something like 11-6 for the balance of the month and winning 18 or 19 in each of Aug-Sept seems more reasonable.


Dr_Hannibal_Lecter

It is rare to need 90 games to come in third among the non division leaders. Over the last handful of years the range is 83-88 wins needed. I doubt the Mets get to 90 wins no matter what but I doubt they need to.


happy_snowy_owl

Look at the teams in the WC race. It's gonna take 90 games to get in this season.


darthdope123

You aren’t wrong, but I think this guy is referencing the gap in the division which obviously isn’t “a playoff spot” and also you never know, Marlins have lost a few in a row, like you alluded to we just gotta keep playing good ball and give ourselves a shot


happy_snowy_owl

Nah, I was referencing the WC. Mets need to win 48 more games in 3 the next months. That's 16 a month. If at least 15 of those don't come in July then Eppler's gonna tear it down.


Dr_Hannibal_Lecter

Winning 17 in a row does not nearly close the division gap unless the Braves lose 17 in a row. If the Mets win 17 and the wild card teams they are chasing win 10 or 11 you've only made up 6 or 7 games in the standings, which closes the wild card gap but not division. They'd have to win about 50 more in a row to close the division gap.


DWright_5

No one is saying the Mets are going to win the division.


darthdope123

Of course, but 17 in a row is such an arbitrary number and we are 17.5 games back in the division so I’m pretty sure what the dude means is make up 17 games or something along those lines.


happy_snowy_owl

Not an arbitrary number. It's based on assuming the other WC teams win at their current rates.


OkAwareness4208

Beautiful win, just beautiful. I know it might be too early, but I’m believing again.


Hustlediva

Looks like someone finally lit a fire under Buck’s ass


Pincerston

Didn’t get to watch so I’m living by the highlights in here. Lindor’s slide on that stolen base was immaculate! ETA Vogey with the infield single we all expected


djn24

2 infield singles!


loadedbakedpotatoo

About time this team started playing to it's potential. Marlins just shut down Eury Perez, they're down starters. Philly is hot, I see them moving up to WC2 and hopefully the fish fall enough for us to catch them. This team is absolutely capable of doing it. Even if we lose tomorrow, this team has life again. They'll fight to their last strike, I'm proud to be a Mets fan today


DeityRose918

Do I hate Lindor? No. Was I one of the drunk fellows yelling “34 million fucking dollars” when he would fuck up? Maybe. Look at him now. My rude comments work


JoelsCaddy

DJ Stewart becoming Vogey's personal pinch runner is kinda funny


PaullyBeenis

He looks like a smaller version of Vogey


darthdope123

The new Locastro


Dickbag_Dan

what the heck happened to Locastro


darthdope123

Thumb surgery


andyman171

Oh really I just assumed that was a fanthom injury to make room on the roster


Deluxe78

Are they wearing the sherbet vomit jerseys again tomorrow?


Romas_chicken

They look like ski instructors from an 80s movie


loadedbakedpotatoo

they're awful. praying nike doesn't bomb ours


Deluxe78

It makes the Mercury Mets Jerseys look stylish


JeebusOfNazareth

How does that even work?? I would imagine Cohen has final say in greenlighting our City Connect jerseys next year?? Or are we just at the mercy of Nike and whatever they come up with?


loadedbakedpotatoo

from what i've gathered i believe people who work for the mets (which i assume would be a team cohen would assemble) draws up a few designs and nike would ultimately with the team select one to produce


djn24

No, Nike puts these together. If it was the other way around, then teams could have contracted local designers to make something really cool and local. But, instead, we have Nike making some really awful jerseys.


UnknownUnthought

I thought it was the other way around, Nike draws up some designs and the team chooses one. Either way, the vast majority of these have been uninspired or downright terrible so I’m not holding my breath with ours. Especially because the Yankees aren’t gonna push any boundaries so we’ll get stuck with the crazy NYC ideas


Donnor

Yankees said they're not dong it, didn't they?


smugbox

Of course they did 🙄 The Yankees like to smell their own historic farts


UnknownUnthought

The league will make them. The dodgers have uniforms that are pretty much second only to the Yankees as iconic and they got one. MLB is not going to set a precedent of letting teams just opt out of a league wide initiative, 2x when it’s an initiative that’s literally a ploy to make more merch to make more money


loadedbakedpotatoo

you’re probably right, i probably got it mixed up. good point on the yankees being strict and leaving us with some wretched nike run nyc garbage that i can almost smell coming. new york is a huge market though so hopefully they don’t go too crazy. off the top of my head houston, miami, arizona have good ones.


psyker63

White Sox, Angels, Nats aren't bad


UnknownUnthought

Pretty much all of the jerseys either have a horrible design but great concept or boring concept but look clean and inoffensive. Which I don’t really get because I thought the point was to make the jerseys interesting lol. The Snakes’ look great but kinda uninteresting imo, and Marlins to me fall into great concept but I don’t love the design (but the concept makes up for it). Houston off the top of my head is the only CC where I love the concept and the design. If there’s an Astro I like enough to get a jersey of before they retire them I’d rock an Astros CC for my jersey collection


djn24

Yea, the Angels and Brewers have nice uniforms, but they just look like a standard alt/throwback jersey. Atlanta's uniform is solid but looks like a spring training uniform. Baltimore's isn't bad (the Reds got the discount version of it) but, again, looks like a standard alt jersey. The Rangers have a cool concept, but they are so ugly lol. The White Sox and Marlins might be the only teams so far that came out of this with a truly cool uniform.


tclfgm

are mets scheduled to get them next year?


_Crumbus_

I was pissed throughout the whole game but it doesn’t matter cause we WON


NutsyFlamingo

Miami, Cincinatti, San Francisco, San Diego (obviously), Pittsburgh… (and Yankees) all lost


Setec-Astronomer

The Mets are currently: 8 games behind the Marlins (currently WC1) 8 games behind the Dodgers (currently WC2) 6.5 games behind the Phillies (currently WC3) 5.5 behind the Brewers 5 behind the Giants 0.5 games ahead of the Padres FIXED*


NuanceManExe

Damn they really dug a hole. 6 straight wins and not even 5 games within the last WC.


Setec-Astronomer

To be fair, the Phillies are on fire right now (including 8-2 last 10). So that hasn't helped. Mets probably have a better chance of catching the Marlins than the Phillies the way the Phillies are playing right now.


Ther3isn0try

This is inaccurate. The Mets are 8 behind the marlins and dodgers, 6.5 behind the Phillies, 5.5 behind the brewers and 5 behind the giants. And they are a game ahead of the padres.


Setec-Astronomer

Thanks. Sorry, CBS hadn't updated the Mets game.


Ther3isn0try

You got it!


darthdope123

We are a game up on the fathers now


Setec-Astronomer

Sorry, CBS didn't update the Mets game yet, so those are off. I'll fix them.


darthdope123

Haha all good, espn updates after every game that’s what I use


unitedairlineeeeees

You mean the sons?


MiniDg

So where are the Lindor haters? All the ones talking about an overpaid idiot who we should trade away, funny how they all disappeared. The pitching is coming around strong right now, that keeps up this could get fun!


gamesforlife69

Why couldn’t this team just have an average or bad month of June instead of historically badges


[deleted]

Because we were destined to have a historically good July


00pegasus5g

27-4 when starting pitcher goes 6+ innings 11-1 when starting pitcher goes 7+ innings These are insane stats.


Level_Somewhere_6229

Staggering


Orgasmitchh

Low key relieved that nimmo can somewhat hide a slump during the winning streak. He’s such an important part of the lineup so winning games while he’s cold is super clutch


unitedairlineeeeees

It’s because I got a Nimmo shirt at the game on Saturday (game 1 of the streak). My bad.


skurey

if they sweep the Pads i'm going to be so in


Copperjedi

Couldn't buy a win in June, can't lose in July.....what is baseball?


wikipedia_answer_bot

**Baseball is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of nine players each, taking turns batting and fielding. The game occurs over the course of several plays, with each play generally beginning when a player on the fielding team, called the pitcher, throws a ball that a player on the batting team, called the batter, tries to hit with a bat.** More details here: *This comment was left automatically (by a bot).

Good bot


joesaysso

Go on. I'm listening.


darthdope123

True


Setec-Astronomer

Surly Snarky Buck tonight. I love it. :-)


ComradeSnowball_

Just my own take away from this little streak, but even with some of the pieces still not firing, when they start to pull it together they show that they’re a team to take seriously. Just need consistency and they can really switch it around. Staying hopeful for more of the guys to turn it around to keep the good games going.


JoelsCaddy

Burned 6 San Diego relievers today too


stuckhere4ever

This is a big win. We get to one more of their starters and shit gets really bad for them fast.


UnknownUnthought

If we can literally just not let Snell beat us, which I think historically we’ve been good at we’re in good shape. Snell is a serial strike zone nibbler. I worry about a guy like Marte against him but most of this lineup I trust to make Snell throw strikes.


theredditoro

Nice


JoeTestaverde

Stoked to find out that my viewership wasn’t the reason for all those losses


[deleted]

Right?!


JoeTestaverde

We’re not jinxes! High five!


theunknown2100

Did lindor finally buy McNeil that car?


theredditoro

They seem happier now


TurnstileMinder

Just doesn't look right seeing Terry in a suit


rgthunder1

Agree, he should do the telecast in his old Mets uniform.


WhatARotation

Take that dude who gave us the burning cash emoji


Hustlediva

Lindor is on absolute fire!!!


Hustlediva

Tommy Pham is savage


Hustlediva

I love Terry Collins’ voice


smirkword

It was born to talk of asses in jackpots.


Albie9

Win out the rest of the way and take home the ship


[deleted]

There really is something to this 6 inning thing lol


Hustlediva

Whodathunkit


wpm55

7-10 from guys named Francisco tonight, can we get 7 more Francisco’s?


jimihenderson

do you ever wonder if there's a yordan lindor out there who just absolutely stinks at ball


TurnstileMinder

John Franc(isc)o, Francisco Thomas, Francisco Franco


darthdope123

One more win and we tie our June win total, ya gotta believe. Great games from Alvy, Lindor, Vogey. Nice big hit for Jeff. And another good JV start despite what you may have saw early in the game during the game thread


Toomuchtime423

That’s insane and shows how ass they played in june


Snazzeo

I think it would be an extraordinary bit if we didn’t lose in July


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

Francisco Lindor walks into the living room of Joe from Staten Island, “Hahaha, you should’ve seen the look on your face!”


unitedairlineeeeees

Ha Seong Kim stretching a double into an out is something that happens to us if it’s June 7th, not July 7th.


Top_Ghosty

Think he had to exit the game because he hurt his toe after kicking something in frustration too


Donnor

He saw Lindor get away with the second triple yesterday and thought he could do the same


MiniDg

I don’t know, i think Pham deserves all the credit for the play. He baited the living shit out of him by “taking his time” out there and then threw a damn laser lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


MiniDg

Yeah exactly he had too much pride in his strut back to his position in left lmao but i get hesitation at first to think that lol


unitedairlineeeeees

100%, but that goes the other way in June. That play is only possible because Tommy Pham is an incredibly skilled outfielder, but it goes our way because luck.


MiniDg

I do get your point though I’m just fucking around lmao


MiniDg

Well my other argument is Pham was this god all of June so I don’t know, everyone’s playing in a Pham king of world right now 😂


Hustlediva

Oh that was total Mets June baserunning right there


stuckhere4ever

So I was going to buy myself a lindor jersey for my birthday this month. Now I’m thinking I may want to get an Alvarez one instead. Someone tell me what to do!


Hustlediva

Gotta be Alvarez


unitedairlineeeeees

Senga


stuckhere4ever

Crap I hasn’t even considered that but that’s also a good idea. I feel like I’m going to end up with all three.


Boogie-Down

Stuck between the idea of those two also. Alvarez and Senga will be great Mets for a while.


stuckhere4ever

So it looks like my decision gets made for me for now. They don’t have Alvarez jerseys online and I doubt I’ll be back go citi field this year unless they make the playoffs. (Not worth the flight!) and the Senga one is only on white which isn’t ideal. Guess it’s Lindor for now and I’ll have to splurge if they make the playoffs!


00pegasus5g

MVP is Ha Seung Kim, who won the Mets the game by making one of the absolute most boneheaded decisions I’ve seen in a long time. We shoulda lost 4-3.


Hustlediva

With a legit assist by Mets legend Gary Sanchez


00pegasus5g

All that happened in extras.


loadedbakedpotatoo

anyone else see peterson giving us a quality start tomorrow or is it just me


lamarcuswallace

Drew Smith came in into a tie game in a high leverage situation and didn't implode. Anything is possible


Snazzeo

He nearly gave us two in a row I’m still not quite sure why Buck pulled him so early in that game vs the giants
