They also open up in DC. I can see why the players may want more time in the city trying to get some of their lives set up there.

Woah. Nightengale reports that 52.5 million of DeGrom's contract is deferred without interest which reduces the effective value from 137.5M to 108.9M (though I'm not really sure I trust Nightengale to get that adjusted figure right either).

Wait, did he get traded to the Nats? Lol

Guess they found the next Madoff.

yeah, so fuck the mets

Mets 2-0 IN Washington, trying for a sweep today. Good news is the Nats are 0-2.

Hate the Mets pretty much more than anything other than the Cowboys but thought it was funny that pockets of Mets fans at Nats Park were chanting "Where is Harper" yesterday

That Pete Alonso fellow seems like he could be a player.

I hate that.

why are the mets expected to be good this year? what do they have besides degrom? syndergaard has been good but not great. cano is at the end of his career. ramos? ok

the nats seem like they have much more potential than the mets. so do the braves.

i would really like to shut the mets up and sweep them twice later this month. 6-0.

The look on Khwai Leonard’s face tonight as the Sixers finished blowing the doors off the Raptors reminded me of the look on Johan Santana’s face in the dugout after the Phillies got done with him in a game from 2010, a picture that was captured and used by our own phatj as his avatar for years. Turns out, that game was exactly nine years ago tonight, 5/2/2010.

This felt like a sign, so I present, for your reading pleasure, The Feces Game. This thread begins with the Mets just having grabbed a 5-2 lead over our heroes, and Santana going back out to pitch the bottom of the fourth.

I wish I could find that pic

That's the kind of thing that gets a manager fired.

That manager also said "we are really good" a month ago. They suck ass.

And their GM proclaimed them “the team to beat” after his stellar off season moves

“Come get us”

Play down to our level, and eventually you’ll suck too!

just think of how much better off the Phillies would be if they hired a real manager like him instead of Gabe

The Metsies

Yet they are still a game up on the nats. Sheesh
