The way too early wildcard watch thread.2024

[krazy2k]

The guy supposedly starting for the Mets has a 10+ ERA and a WHIP over 2. It won't be Severino. The New York Scrubs are resting comfortably.

Im literally a bigger Mets fan than Billy Crystal right now

Looks like the Mets are running a bunch of their guys out there for this one and not mailing it in?

The Mets are starting a dude with an ERA over 10

 

[AZCB34]

Position player wise I mean

 

[AZCB34]

So what? Dbacks invited this outcome

Looks like he has only pitched 4.1 innings this year. Gave up 5 ER's to the Phillies.

Mets are sitting Lindor, JD Martinez and Iglesias. And pitching their juggernaut Joey Lucchesi.

Chris Sale is scratched for back spasms. Braves are starting Grant Holmes, who has started 3 games in his career. Just stating the facts, not asking for sympathy. It is what it is.

No Chris Sale for the Braves - back spasms

His career record is 23-25 with a 4.14 ERA. I suppose they could have phoned it in worse pitching wise, but only starting a guy with one start this year is definitely saving yours staff for the postseason.

JD Martinez has been slumping bad the last month...worst of his career. He got a couple hits over the weekend, but before that was abysmal.

Braves get a run in the 2nd

Are you talking about Chris Holmes? I looked it up and didn't see that. Guess I'm getting old.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

This is literally just getting an extra day of Dback futility.

Yup.

For ultimate rubbage, the Mets will lead going into the bottom of the ninth.

 

[Dback Jon]

Atlanta scores 3-0

 

[GatorAZ]

It’s hard to be upset at another team when the D’Backs lost 5/7 down the stretch.

Doesn’t look like it mattered

 

[Gambler]

No argument here.

Very much so - Atlanta and New York aren't responsible if the Dbacks miss the playoffs

 

[AZCB34]

And the Dbacks season is officially over

I said midseason that his malfeasance with the lineup and rotation would have the team miss the playoffs by one game. People disagreed.

Does anyone think this will actually happen? I don’t even if maybe it should
