That's a definite recreational play, provided Cleon makes it out of the van without getting into trouble. (Let's see if anyone here gets the joke)
Tough loss last night, Jake was brilliant and of course they did shit for him so offensively he even handled that.
Those uniforms Players Weekend uniforms are horrendous, MLB has no clue. Keith nailed it likening them to Mad Magazine's classic Spy vs Spy comic

Interesting three-game series with my Phillies starting tomorrow, Friday. Probably the most "interesting" series in many years, between these two, this late in the season. On Friday, Aaron Nola against Zach Wheeler and the Phillies won't have to see either Jacob deGrom or Noah Syndergaard in this series, which helps. Problem is, after Nola it's pray for 4 days of rain. The team has an ace plus a bunch or 5th or 6th starters. The fact is that when Jake Arietta crashed and burned so did the Phillies season.
Let's go Phils!

The Cubs softened them up for you; three game sweep beating both Syndegard and DeGrom. Mets are going nowhere.

Stick a fork in them, they're done. Only upside, the countdown begins for Mick-not-so-quick-Callaway getting canned.

Same old story. Now that the team made a small run (against mostly below .500 teams), management will stand pat and not do much,except for relief pitching, over the off-season. The story is getting very tired! Why,oh why did i ever become a Mets fan! Give me the good old days of Joan Payson and M.Donald Grant .

It doesn't get worse than this:
Kurt Suzuki capped the largest ninth-inning comeback in Nationals history with a game-ending, three-run homer, helping Washington score seven runs in its final at-bat to beat the New York Mets 11-10 Tuesday night.
Mets relievers Paul Sewald, Luis Avilan and Edwin Díaz pitched through the meltdown, retiring just one Nationals batter while Washington rallied for its 20th win in 26 games.

Brutal, just brutal . . . in franchise history Mets had been 806-0 with 6-run 9th inning lead. A perfect capper to nightmare season for Diaz, kid is a disaster, good chance he's no longer fixable mentally

To top it all off, The Scranton/Willksbarre team is a Yankees farm team.

Don’t give up yet. The Metropolitans are only 4 ½ games out with 23 games to go. They’ve got three games with the Phillies this weekend; they could easily sweep that. The Phillies have been so erratic this season that they could lose 10 in a row and it wouldn’t surprise anyone.
Let’s go Phils.
