GDT: Mets @ Braves game 2

[TheBravos]

Flaherty is the luckiest guy lol

[jsebe10]

And right in on que the stupid fckn rule of having a pitcher hit in the NL bails out another struggling ace.

Hypothetically, if the Mets fall out of contention which I think is possible, what would you guys trade for Syndergaard or DeGrom? Short of Acuna and Albies, do we have the chips to make a move?

So far he's managed to hit the "pause button" on his inevitable regression.

I think the Mets are as likely to fall out of contention as we are.

Wow...the outfield shift got beat there

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

Ender played too shallow, dang

[Braves1976]

Newk doing bad vs their worst hitters.

[thethe]

Newk not throwing any changeups

[UNCBlue012]

Horrible pitch sequence

[chop2chip]

I think the Mets are as likely to fall out of contention as we are.

I mean, yes, of course. But the Mets have an older roster with a lot of money tied up in older players and a bottom tier farm system. We are the exact opposite, obviously.

If we are trying to identify future sellers they would be at the top of the list.

[UNCBlue012]

Dumb. Lost lead due to the garbage part of their lineup

[bravesfanMatt]

Newk seems off to me. This is the bad Newk I think.

[TheBravos]

Yeah...one really good at bat and then one lucky reaching hit that got in the gap somehow. Wasn’t exactly hit hard.

[TheBravos]

Newk seems off to me. This is the bad Newk I think.

Looked pretty well until this inning...

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

Looked pretty well until this inning...

Mets seem to be able to identify his curve well this game

[USMA76]

I think the Mets are as likely to fall out of contention as we are.

Not sure that their stable of overpowering SP arms doesn't give them a distinct advantage in that regard. Unless they're decimated by injuries again, I like their chances.

[chop2chip]

We are getting some great swings tonight. If Newk can hold them to no more than three runs, I think we can win.

[GeorgiaGirl]

He started missing away in the 3rd.
