    Less than 50 percent odds the bullpen can hold a 2 run lead? Feels like we need a couple insurance runs if we are going to pull this out.

    Mets broadcasters called Neck Nick McCarcus and Jason Markakis that inning.

    Braves announcers are playing the jinx, everything they run their mouths about is backfiring this inning.

    Bc you need a long guy or a two inning guy with a lot of Young pitchers. Young pitchers are inefficient and are on pitch and innings limits.

    Hit vs his 88 after facing 95.

    Plus it’s a bullpen arm. There are like 10 predictable no arms in baseball

    Laughable to me to have a million pitchers and then we trade for hand. They are going to want more for hand than it would take to get moose.

    I’m not giving up Wilson or touki for a pen arm

    No way. He's been getting hit hard the last few innings, the bullpen has a day of rest, and you want him to leave his first start feeling good.

    I would let Soroka go one more. As hard as he was hit that last inning, I still have relative confidence that he will be able to lock it up in the 7th. At least more confidence then I do in most of the bullpen. Soroka throws strikes.

    Me too, bottom of the order and only 80 pitches. Plus their first hitter if gets to top has had issues with him.

    And here I am dining on the rich delicacy which is the Mets broadcast.
