The Mets (22–23) lost to the Braves (26–21) by the score of 4 to 2 in Atlanta tonight, completing a four-game sweep.
For a boxscore, play-by-play, etc., go to SNY’s Recap Page.
- Yikes. I mean, yikes. Say it again, yikes.
- So, the Mets are a below-500 team. I mean, maybe that’s a good thing at this point. Maybe this will act as a bit of cold water – or, I should say I hope it does.
- A lot of things happened in this game, but what I found most frustrating, was David Wright. He makes a tremendous statement last night, talking about emotion, wanting to win, etc., and then plays a horrible game tonight. In fact, it looked like he was trying to do too much. He had a rough night at the plate, in the field and on the bases, getting doubled-up on first base in the ninth inning on a line drive by Carlos Beltran. I’m not picking on Wright. I mean, every one is entitled to a rough game. He’s my favorite player on the team. I’m just saying, it’s crazy how finally this team gets a player to say the right things, and then that very player struggles on the night. It’s like, they just can’t get it together, even when they’re trying their hardest.
- I think it may be time to begin Willie Watch, as a four-game sweep and falling below .500 cannot be good.
The Mets travel to Colorado to take on the Rockies tomorrow, starting at 9 pm EDT, with Oliver Perez facing Greg Reynolds.
YOu gotta Love Larry… Here’s a guy who’s going to have more than 3000 hits 500 home runs will go down as one of the Greatest 3B just stomp the sheet out of the METS… It’s been fun watching Larry pound the METS year after YEAR… I wish D Wright can do the same thing to the Braves… :(

You said the exact biggest problem with this team. It is too veteran for Willie to control.
DWright hinted at it when he said that guys should care when they get beat like that but they just let it go.
Anyway, enough chat about the Braves (who we all know are not going to make the playoffs)
Something you Mets retards don’t know is that this is the last year the braves have to pay that thief Mike Hampton any money. He accounts for 15 million of the Braves payroll and does nothing. Essentially he is the highest player on the team and he hasn’t pitched since 2005. He is without a doubt the biggest reason the Braves haven’t been as competitive the past 2 seasons.
After this year that bum will be gone and the Braves will have that extra 15 milion and if they want to they will Tex for a long-term deal at around 20-22 million anually.
Not going to happen. You can keep dreaming though, nothing wrong with that. You can’t outbid the NY teams. Besides, his sister lives in NJ. Sorry, its pretty much written in stone.
Yeah and he played college ball at Ga tech and loves ATL. PLus I think this series all he had to do is look over at that dugout and realize he doesnt want to be a part of that trainwreck.
Whatever dude. We are still paying Mo Vaughn. What else you got?
And Bobby Bo.
And like always they will just eat that money.
You do know that the Mets don’t really have a budet (that’s what happens when you have a lot of these things called FANS) and have about 40 million coming of the books.
and its also the last year for giambi, abreu, pavano, among others, and they’ll pay 30 million a year to get texeira so have fun outbidding the yankees….
Some of you guys are nuts!
I’m currently owning “K-Chub” in the “Mets are done” thread in anyone cares to join in….
teufelshuffle??? you should change your name to RichardHead PinHead…
Where’s the outrage!!!!
I don’t know if God hates the Mets and their fans, but man you sure are some pathetic losers.
And you are a Braves fan hanging out in a Mets website. Who’s the pathetic loser now?
god isnt real k chub…..just because a voice told u to kill black people, doesn’t mean he is real.
thanks man, that’s the first time I’ve smiled since the 7th inning.
hey anyone remember how many championships the braves have won in the last 40 years?
Actually if you want to say the Atlanta Braves, they have won uh one in the history of their franchise.
I think the score on that one is 2-1 Mets.
Not sure. My memory is clouded by all the ones they choked away.
How many have the Mets won?
I just love how you Mets fans can only talk about how you ended our hopes last season. Did you forget your team had one of the biggest, if not the biggest, chokes/collapses of all time last year. Keep hating the Braves all you want, you just got swept plain and simple. BTW, Castillo is one heck of a player, nice signing!!
“Jus’ the GOOD OLE BOYS. . . . Never meanin’ no HARM!!”
Where did the Braves finish in regards to that “historic collapse”? They must’ve finished ahead of them for you to make a post like that, right? The Braves finished ahead of the Mets last year, right?
That was one year. What’s your excuse for thirteen years of chokes?
How about having the best pitching staff in Major League Baseball for over a decade and only winning one World Series.
How about having the best winning percentage in baseball for almost a decade and only winning one World Series.
We had one bad September.
You guys had a bad DECADE.
This is great we have found almost all 13 Braves fans. Keep this up and someone might try and make a Braves blog for you to go to.
This is great. Now we can send them all a virus and take down the internet in the whole south.
But they don’t want the flu, it would hurt cotton production.
You guys comments about the South are really sad. Its the kind of ignorance that sadly is evident on both sides.
It’s really sad for the frontrunning Braves fan. TBS dumped the Braves, so they actually have to pay for MLB Extra Innings now.
but wasn’t at the hands of the Braves, now go wank your cow……..
Omar’s insanely overrated anyway. Just look at the horrors he did to the Expos/Nationals franchise. I mean, both of those Colon trades basically killed them for 10 years. Not having a loaded Nats team with guys like Lee, Sizemore and Phillips is actually the best move he’s ever made for the Mets.
But hey, it’s awesome he brought Tatis back in from those days. 2 grand slams in an inning 20 years ago is an awesome reason to keep a has been on a ML bench.
Regardless, it’s time to clean house. Say goodbye to Omar, Willie, the coaches, everyone. Ditch Delgado, toss Endy, bury Anderson, etc. Knock some heads together, take some names and kick some a…….
omar needs to release delgado eat the dam contract.release tatis easley and anderson enough of these guys .we have no bench we have no leadership. the season is over who we kidding the phillies are way better then us hammels is just as good santana.its time to deal beltran back to the stros for pence and a couple of minor leaguers enough of this team. no guts at all on this team .its time maybe for someone to tear up a clubhouse or even a watercooler . come on enough omar your done also. WHERE IS DUDE STEARNS
Beat the Mets, beat the Mets! Come out to the park and sweep the Mets!
Wireless on the short bus?
how about having terrible teams since I dont know say 1986 - I can honestly say I would rather watch the Braves win all year long and lose in the playoffs than suck and never have a team good enough to compete for 20 years. Must be hard to sleep some nights??
Yup, even worse to see your team finish behind them for the last 2 years.
Besides that, do you even remember how horrible the Braves were before that run, they were the true laughing stock of baseball.
I would rather you stop posting from the double-wide.
As soon as you stop from your roach invested 200 sq ft apartment.
Not really. I have a house not a trailer. Oh, and I sleep with a woman who is not related to me. So it’s pretty easy actually.
I’d rather live in a house with indoor plumbing, so I sleep fine thanks.
Typical Braves attitude. “I would rather lose in the playoffs every year”. No wonder you can’t get a ticket to a Braves playoff game.
Anyone now wish the Union had just let the south secede?
Braves fans are just mad they closed down all of the dog fighting rings. I guess they’re done playing in the mud.
In the mud, you mean their living rooms?
Sorry, my mistake…..
Its funny how fans of a team that has won less championships than we have in the past 40 years come onto a website for the team they think is inferior…..yet has won more championships….
Its kinda sad how they dont have their own website to go on and post….but maybe thats because they dont have enough fans to have a website for fans to post on….i feel bad….and if you braves fans dont think Tex isnt going to be a yankee next yr your DREAMING….and if you think your organization is going to pay any player 20 million per yr…..thats just plain delusional……lol…
We do have a “website to go on and post”, several actually… Bravesjournal.com i think is the best… It’s kind of like this, except more civilized
Great. You’ll have fun there. And not here. Immediately.
catz, at the wintergarden theater
That’s right the Civilized Braves Fan. That could be a hit seller.
probably not as bad as its been for you guys finishing behind us for the 14 before that
Poor guy has not figured out how to use a blog yet, poor thing.
Well, we know better than to let an Atlantan behind us.
haha they are all on “the DL”, and i dont mean the disabled list.
Go back to your half-empty stadium and wave your arm.
