Chris!
ChrisF Yesterday at 1:46 pm

G U S !!!
Brian Yesterday at 1:47 pm
I’d buy the caring but not the 2nd word
ChrisF Yesterday at 1:47 pm

Gus Yesterday at 1:47 pm
Chris, is that you on The Athletic that posts as Chris F?
ChrisF Yesterday at 1:47 pm

Brian Yesterday at 1:47 pm

ChrisF Yesterday at 2:11 pm

Brian Yesterday at 2:11 pm
Hey Name – good to see you!
Right side ground out #1 for McNeil
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:12 pm

Name Yesterday at 2:14 pm
First run!
Brian Yesterday at 2:14 pm
Did that go over?
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:14 pm
MARTE is back baby!
by a foot
Brian Yesterday at 2:15 pm
Indeed. Nice to see!
Next thing your know, DJ ad Baty will homer, too
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:17 pm
dont go overboard
Brian Yesterday at 2:19 pm
Should tell that to Stewart
Metsense! Tell us something good
Metsense Yesterday at 2:21 pm
Well Stewart is on a Express train to Syracuse
Brian Yesterday at 2:22 pm
It’s his destiny
Hey Talkative Citizen – welcome and join i
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:24 pm
ha! He’ll be riding the dog latter today, bus leaves NYC at 5 pm with stops in New Paltz, Binghamton, and Cortland
Brian Yesterday at 2:26 pm
Quintana has settled in nicely
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:27 pm
Name settled him down
Brian Yesterday at 2:28 pm
I know it’s the second day but I’m surprised this is the only 1:00 game
Braves-Phils at 3:05 is only other afternoon game.
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:30 pm
is this yesterdays game or regularly scheduled
Brian Yesterday at 2:31 pm
yesterday
Glad to hear Gary acknowledge that Bader can’t hit RHP
Metsense Yesterday at 2:33 pm
And it will want the Mets until they realize it
Brian Yesterday at 2:34 pm
Now we just need GKR to realize that Nimmo and McNeil were more valuable when they started to hit homers last year.
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:36 pm
never stops hurting us
Brian Yesterday at 2:36 pm
Well, the lead was nice
Hey Fortunate Creature – welcome

Can’t believe Keith’s cat is over 20 years old
Good effort by Pete, if not results
Woodrow Yesterday at 2:41 pm
HRs and Ks are what it is about for better or worse
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:41 pm
Worse
Brian Yesterday at 2:42 pm
Wouldn’t mind seeing a few more Ks from Quintana
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:42 pm
or hits from the Mets
Brian Yesterday at 2:42 pm
Just like that – all I had to do was ask!
Woodrow Yesterday at 2:44 pm
Two or three runs this inning?
Brian Yesterday at 2:45 pm
Gary ragging on Gelbs – love it!
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:45 pm
mets K a lot
Brian Yesterday at 2:46 pm
Wind must be blowing out to RF and in to LF
Brian Yesterday at 2:54 pm
I’m not a big fan of the SB but the percent of success makes it silly not to run more than teams did last year.
ChrisF Yesterday at 2:55 pm
why dont you like SB?
its super exciting and shows the multidimensionality of skills for the game
Brian Yesterday at 2:57 pm
I’m not sure I can adequately explain it but it’s a gimmicky part of the game to me.
Metsense Yesterday at 2:59 pm
It wasn’t blowing that much Gary
Brian Yesterday at 2:59 pm
Exactly, Metsense
Woodrow Yesterday at 3:02 pm
Uh oh,HR?
Brian Yesterday at 3:03 pm
Is 33 a new number for Smith? Maybe it’ll change his luck
Ha! Gary talking about it now
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:04 pm
2024. Mets cant hit and starters go <5 IP
hmmmm……
Metsense Yesterday at 3:05 pm
Nice job Smith
Brian Yesterday at 3:05 pm
What did you pick for wins in the poll, Chris?
Metsense Yesterday at 3:05 pm
It is only early season Chris
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:06 pm
i dont recall the options
Brian Yesterday at 3:06 pm
80 or under; 81-82; 83-84; 85 and up
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:07 pm
may be early Metsense, but its all too familiar
im going with 81-82
Brian Yesterday at 3:08 pm
That was my pick as well
Metsense Yesterday at 3:08 pm
Me too
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:08 pm
feels like. .500 team
Metsense Yesterday at 3:09 pm
And I feel it will be a struggle
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:09 pm
sad for Buddy, I hope he is finally at peace
as with his family
brutal AB for Alvarez
Brian Yesterday at 3:12 pm
Saving our hits for the sixth
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:12 pm
there ya go
Metsense Yesterday at 3:12 pm
I hope he increases his batting average and on base percentage this year Chris
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:12 pm
that would sure be nice for a goal
Blissful Spirit Yesterday at 3:14 pm
Hi, gang!
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:15 pm
the number of stadiums oriented so its full sun for OF really blows my mind.
Brian Yesterday at 3:15 pm
Hi Blissful!

ChrisF Yesterday at 3:15 pm
Blissful, who are ye?
Brian Yesterday at 3:16 pm
ChrisF
the number of stadiums oriented so its full sun for OF really blows my mind. So it should go to the hitters, instead?
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:16 pm
hitters dont look up and have a batters eye
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:17 pm
It is I, CharlieH
Brian Yesterday at 3:17 pm
Happy Birthday, Charlie!
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:17 pm
Hey Charlie!
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:18 pm
Thanks, Brian!
Brian Yesterday at 3:18 pm
Did you ever hear back from John C?
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:19 pm
I see “we” are again taking a Gandhian approach to the offense…
Complete non-violence
Brian Yesterday at 3:19 pm
Hey, Marte put a hurting on a pitch
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:20 pm
That was nice shot, but that’s it????
Brian Yesterday at 3:21 pm
Hard to do violence when you don't swing
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:22 pm
Empty the pen on game 1
Metsense Yesterday at 3:23 pm
It is only a one-run game
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:23 pm
Gary Cohen just commented that Bader’s fly out to CF was one of the hardest balls off Perralta all day; it didn’t reach the warning track.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:23 pm
its been sad
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:24 pm
13 consecutive outs since Stewart’s BB
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:24 pm
this team is a hot mess at the plate
Brian Yesterday at 3:24 pm
Saving our hits for when Peralta leaves the game.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:24 pm
you promised me the 6th Brian…THE 6TH
Brian Yesterday at 3:25 pm
I thought they'd hit against the bullpen - my bad
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:25 pm
He was up over 60 pitches in the 4th. He just cracked 90 in the 7th. You could say he’s outpitched Quintana, a little bit, yes?
Brian Yesterday at 3:25 pm
Mets with 4 balls hit harder than Bader's
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:26 pm
just a little Charlie
Woodrow Yesterday at 3:26 pm
Sheesh,are they going to score three runs?
Brian Yesterday at 3:27 pm
Welcome Friendly Guru
You can click the icon and change your user name
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:27 pm
Jorge Lopez… sigh…
Brian Yesterday at 3:28 pm
Gary talked about Mendoza learning to use his pen. My advice is not to use Smith and Lopez when the game is close.
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:28 pm
And now the defense is faltering.
Woodrow Yesterday at 3:29 pm
You know if they can’t hit…
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:30 pm
man WTH happened in the past 2 min
Brian Yesterday at 3:31 pm
What happened? Jorge Lopez happened
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:31 pm
So they turn a DP in 1st I thought they never would & miss one in 7th I thought was a sure thing.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:31 pm
were gonna see the whole pen today
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:31 pm
Shows you how much I know…
Brian Yesterday at 3:32 pm
It would be great if we saw Diaz
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:32 pm
just for fun
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:32 pm
Not unless they put up a 3-spot over the next 2 innings.
Brian Yesterday at 3:32 pm
Would the play the trumpets if he came in with the team down 5?
Metsense Yesterday at 3:32 pm
Lopez is a reclamation project and there are too many in this roster
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:32 pm
Raid so Metsense
afraid
Brian Yesterday at 3:33 pm
The guy's had 2.5 good months in his career.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:34 pm
maybe if we flip the script and lose opening day we will do better in th eseason
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:35 pm
Like in ‘84! I like it!
OK, Pete… earn your next contract…
Woodrow Yesterday at 3:37 pm
When did they trade MeGill
Metsense Yesterday at 3:37 pm
Maybe a McGill will lose today
Brian Yesterday at 3:37 pm
It's his brother
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:37 pm
That is not the way.
Cleanup hitter bunting. What game is this?
Woodrow Yesterday at 3:38 pm
and DH is batting 7th
Brian Yesterday at 3:38 pm
Guy walks on 5 pitches and next two batters offer at 1st pitch
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:38 pm
Yup.
Brian Yesterday at 3:41 pm
crank up the WP offense
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:41 pm
H oh
SHIT
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:41 pm
Close, but no cee-gar…
Brian Yesterday at 3:44 pm
Is everyone getting kicked out of the chat or just looking something else up?
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:44 pm
Just silent
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:44 pm
I hope Tonkin can resolve the gulf in the Mets’ bullpen…
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:45 pm
i like the new windbreaker Mendoza is wearing
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:45 pm
(I’ll see myself out)
Brian Yesterday at 3:45 pm
I'm getting all of these notifications of so and so leaving the chat. Are you getting notifications of me leaving?
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:45 pm
no
Brian Yesterday at 3:45 pm
Just trying to understand how the software works.
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:45 pm
No
Brian Yesterday at 3:46 pm
We can get Yelich out
Metsense Yesterday at 3:46 pm
I'm here just like the Mets offense
Brian Yesterday at 3:47 pm
I'm laughing because it's too painful to cry
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:47 pm
indeed
Brian Yesterday at 3:48 pm
Use one of our challenges on that ball 4 call
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:48 pm
Oh, come on.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:48 pm
this game has that feeling of June
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:48 pm
Sit the f down, everybody.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:49 pm
good grief
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:49 pm
OK Hoskins needs one in the ear.
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:50 pm
that was shitty slide - MCL injury very possible there
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:50 pm
Isley taught Hoskins well, I see.
Utley
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:51 pm
almost
Brian Yesterday at 3:51 pm
I'd be surprised if they ruled against the Brewers. But McNeil has a right to be upset.
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:51 pm
Next time up, Hoskins goes down.
Brian Yesterday at 3:52 pm
Wow - quick review
OK, let's get back at them with some runs
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:54 pm
Now, let’s score some bleedin’ runs, shall we?
Metsense Yesterday at 3:55 pm
It was a dangerous but legal slide
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:55 pm
Wonder if the Mets have ever been 1-hit on opening day
CharlieH Yesterday at 3:57 pm
JD can’t get here fast enough…
ChrisF Yesterday at 3:57 pm
yuk
day late and a dollar short on that swing
thanks for answering my question Gary
Brian Yesterday at 3:59 pm
106.2, Keith
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:00 pm
Wave at everything.
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:00 pm
Baty and his whistling balsa wood bat
Metsense Yesterday at 4:00 pm
But it was a sweet swing
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:00 pm
Baty over Vientos, huh? Yes, I’m 2nd guessing; I admit it.
Nice Character Yesterday at 4:01 pm
It’s the hitting..
Brian Yesterday at 4:01 pm
Baty needs 200 consecutive PA in AAA
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:04 pm
Didn’t Bauers homer at Citi in the Subway Series last year?
Not a bad outing for Tonkin
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:06 pm
Agreede
Brian Yesterday at 4:06 pm
Indeed. Now PH for Bader
Metsense Yesterday at 4:06 pm
Tonkin is what the Met s bullpen needed are multiple inning picture that is reliable
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:08 pm
Nader is in there.
Bader
Damn
Brian Yesterday at 4:10 pm
get some wheels, Bader
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:11 pm
Tip your cap.
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:11 pm
Ugly ugly game
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:11 pm
Hung up too long
Brian Yesterday at 4:12 pm
Two line drives with nothing to show for Nimmo
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:12 pm
1 hit, 2 walks. That’s it. Not gonna win that many that way.
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:13 pm
out with a whimper
Outgoing User Yesterday at 4:13 pm
Not a great start but they hit the ball
Well.
kudos to Marte
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:13 pm
Well, gentlemen, it’s been fun grousing with y’all.
Brian Yesterday at 4:14 pm
Thanks for the chatter - hope basketball goes better tonight
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:14 pm
Good luck with the game review B. It’ll be short
Metsense Yesterday at 4:14 pm
t they weren't shut out
CharlieH Yesterday at 4:14 pm
LOL
ChrisF Yesterday at 4:14 pm
cheers all
Metsense Yesterday at 4:14 pm
Thanks for the chatter have a pleasant night
