GDT 8/4 Braves (Gausman) @ Mets (Wheeler)

I guess we were due to have a suckfest game after winning five straight. Hopefully, we get this out of our system and get things going tomorrow. If not, we're looking at a split against a team that's 20 games under .500 with our closest rivals on hot streaks.

PS I'm glad this McNeil guy hasn't played against us all year.
 
Pretty early to declare a game a must win, but I think tomorrow is just that. We play 7 games this week vs playoff contenders Tuesday thru Sunday. The nats are gonna give us everything they have
 
Speaking of skill development, I would very much like to see Ozzie Albies become just a lttile bit more selective at the plate, especially in the 8th inning with 2 runners on and 2 out. That was a pitcher's pitch there from Gisellman, absolutely no reason to hack that early at that pitch.
 
A real possibility that we split the series with Teheran pitching tomorrow. Not ideal. The Mets are woefully bad.
 
ugh...when are they gonna learn that Fried is not equipped to shift from AAA rotation to big league BP with ease? We are jiving our pitchers with their constant shuttling, and it's by and large hurting their value

We all know how well JT pitches during day games. His last one against Miami was a real gem. Hope I'm wrong about tomorrow.

Agreed. He is not a BP guy. He is a starter. So goofy.

They've pitched out of their minds this series. Even Vargas was tough. O doubt they've strung starts together like this a lot this year.

Combine it with a tepid offense and we're very lucky to have taken 2.

Didn't he almost pitch a no hitter against the Mets at Citi Field in a day game earlier this year? It was a blowout game
 
Honestly we were well on our way to this happening. We were playing with absolute fire in the first two games, after the 4th in game 1, Mets pitching sat down the last 15 in order, and after Albies hit an RBI double, Mets pitching sat down everyone else in order yesterday. The offense has been pretty bad in this series for the most part.

So a 5-game winning streak is over, and netted us no ground at all.

I am not as convinced as everyone else that these Phillies are gonna fade. They seem like they are for real to me, and I think we could see this race go right to the wire
