gateb Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I had them winning 93 originally but unless we start benching our main guys temporarily to give them rest I don't see why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Jeans Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 I had them winning 93 originally but unless we start benching our main guys temporarily to give them rest I don't see why not. I thought about that, and figuring we will see some prospects we could fall out of some games... but Willie is not one to lose and neither is this team. 20-13 wouldn't be acceptable with some teams in Colorado, Washington, Atlanta, and Florida that aren't really in our league anymore.

feefifoefum Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I was thinking about this today. 100 wins would be nice. Magic number to 100 wins: 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gateb Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Yeah, September is going to be interesting to see us get to October with some new fresh faces from the minors. Hopefully I see more of the same at the Dodgers game. I don't want to be fielding the same lineup we did against the Pads a couple of weeks ago.

mws44 Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 That's .606 ball the rest of the way. With the up coming schedule, I don't see why we can't play .606 ball. We have all year. Pedro and Glavine will be coming back also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Since they don't have to play the Al anymore, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feefifoefum Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Since they don't have to play the Al anymore, why not? You mean the Red Sox, the only team that looked better than the Mets at the time. Oh, they just happened to be in the middle of a double digit winning streak when we faced them. 3-3 against the Yankees. (Somehow Yankee fans forgot about the series at Shea, and pretend they only played that game that ended 16-7.) 2-1 against the Blue Jays. 1-2 against the Orioles, but even Yankee fans aren't dirty enough to say the O's are better than the Mets. Bring on the AL. The Mets have a lineup as deep as any AL team when Floyd comes back, and I'd love nothing more than to see them celebrating in The Dump That Ruth Took.

Pedro and Glavine have to come back to get their stuff back to playoff form. They both need at least 3 or 4 starts in September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We gave you those games at Shea anyway. We don't play that badly anymore. I admit, the Mets are very deep. But stats are stats. You're still a .500 team in the AL. And that's when you're healthy.

Gave us the games away Whatever happened on that one Saturday at Shea stadium? That is the definition of giving games away. If you can't concede defeat for one serious your a moron. And last I checked 3-3 puts us in position for a game 7 and that's where we have no idea what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with a more AL-like Lineup (which is bullshit that we had to have it this way) and more consistant pitching there is no doubt that we are much better than we were in June.

We don't play that badly anymore. I admit, the Mets are very deep. But stats are stats. You're still a .500 team in the AL. And that's when you're healthy. This statement is rediculous. Any team can point to one thing in every single loss that they did wrong and "gave" the game to the other team. Seems to me that we "gave" you the 3 games you won too. That's a point no one can argue. Good teams take advantage of mistakes, that is why the Mets and Yankees are at the top of their divisions. 15 Interleague games spread out over 2 series doesn't really give a clear picture in how good a team is anyway. It's all gonna come down to whatever team is on a hot streak come October, just like it always does. Last 5 World Series record is AL-3 NL-2. More even than people would have you think. If the pitchers hit their stride and your big hitters get hot in October, you become a champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rockies were 11-4 against the AL. Does that mean they'd be a lock to win the World Series if they had a chance to get there? Thanks for "giving" those away. As if David Wright didn't smoke Rivera and we didn't own Randy Johnson twice. The Yankees beat Alay Soler and couldn't beat the Mets when we had Jeremi Gonzalez on the mound. The Yankees were playing BETTER back then. Take away the series in Boston, and what is the Yankees record the last few weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, as soon as you lose a couple, you want to trade away your future. I have more faith in the Mets than all y'all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a few months away from reading the dribble of this obviously inbred moron and not to my surprise upon my return I see nothing has changed. Gave the 2 games away at Shea? Is this why your #1 and #2 starters each pitched games 1 and 2 of the series? (Remember this was before Chien Ming Wang was HOF bound). I know your small mind better than you know so do not give me the Aaron Small game on Sunday, 11 months ago you Yankee fans were sucking his dick for 10-0. Remember how many men AROD left on that night? So lets get this straight, the Mets beat Johnson(after the big unitless was staked to a 5-0 lead)behind the immortal Jeremy Gonzalez. The Mets led Mussina 4-0 before Wagner imploded like a 2004 Yankee, yet you gave those games away? I suppose the three game series at the STadium where the Mets threw El Duque, Trachsel and the immortal Olay Soler at Mussina, Johnson and Wright was one we should use as a measuring stick? I mean Soler is only now in AA and that night was left on the mound to be a sacrficial lamb as the pen needed rest with a 7 games in 6 days stretch coming up. The Mets have a losing record against 2 teams in baseball, the Red Sox(whom they caught at a bad time for them and great time for the SOx) and the O's, who much like the Nats did to the Yanks were a shitty team that happened to win 2 of 3. Any fan with half a brain would realize judging 3-6 games that teams played 3 months ago as a measuring stick is as moronic as it gets. Ditto on the other hand ............
