NL East Race Watch

27 to 5 (the Mets made it 5 in the 9th inning). By the way, I loved listening to the Mets broadcast. Those guys are a joy and I'd listen to them call Mets games even if the Nats weren't playing.

I agree. They're definitely among the better broadcasters out there.

I listen to them a ton, they are the best (except for Scully obviously).

Why couldn't we do this vs Harang?

[Slateman]

4-0

Dee Gordon manufacturing a run. He walks, steals second, goes to third on fly, scores on a base hit.

Wonder what it take to trade for him.

Yeah but if you pitted 25 Dee Gordons versus 25 Adam Dunns the Adam Dunns would win 164 to 12.

How do I get a team composed entirely of Mike Trouts?

Dee Gordon has come a long way.  My main memory of him was in the early series in 2012 when HRod was pitching to him.  We had a 1-run lead, and he had 2 outs and 2 strikes.  It was obvious that all Henry had to do was throw a fastball down the heart of the plate and Gordon wouldn't be able to touch it because he was completely overmatched.  Instead, Henry bounced a couple of pitches and ended up losing.

Ironically, I'm reading all these trade rumors from late 2012 and 2013 and he could have been had for not much.

But who would pitch ?

Just throw the ball up there. Trout will run it down.

Doyers are good. Gonna be tough to beat them in the NLCS

Everyone else beats up on the Braves. Why can't we?

Brian Wilson is terrible.

Well he's getting old, just can't hit the high notes at all anymore.
