    Cheap seats for this game, Mets are having 1950's pricing, so got seats for $3.50 lol. I usually try and sit behind the Braves dugout near the end of the year when all season ticket holders are dumping off their tickets and the Mets are long out of it.

    Simmons is our best option right now to hit lead off. So glad that other guy is sitting on the bench tonight. He needed a day off. Doumit hasn't had enough at bats and he should start at least once a week. Hopefully tonight he can get loose.

    Don't agree with sitting Heyward. With a fly ball pitcher in a big ball park, give me my best OF defense (which happens to coincide with our biggest offensive potential). But Fredi's gonna Fredi

    Still no Mutts lineup.

    Brain trust meeting to counter the Doughnut-Harangutan lineup ending.

    Heyward has looked like crap lately, he can come in as a defensive replacement if needed.

    His 5 for his last 40 doesn't agree. He needed a day or two off, no way around it.

    Today's lineup shows how much Fredi/Frank have faith in Schafer.

    Offday for Heyward and we have a worse defensive replacement because he can hit.
    Forever Fredi

    No way Schafer was going to play with a tough lefty on the mound. So with no more Reed Johnson he had no choice who else to play.

    Uggla nowhere near.

    Another slow-ass meatball we can't catch up with.
