Damn he looked safe. Why not review that?

[fish16]

Edwards should be leading off with Arraez behind him.

[Nick]

Is Wendle any faster than Fortes?

[fish16]

This feels like crushing double play. Hope gurriel proves me wrong

[fish16]

If burger doesn’t win this right now we’re going to lose this in extras.

[fish16]

Thank god. Burger has been so huge. That would have been a completely devastating loss.

[Nick]

Burger is the fucking man.

[TheMendozaLine]

Hail to the Burger King!

[fish16]

Burger is the fucking man.

The amount of big time hits to win games from both him and bell since being brought over is crazy. It’s nutd that at this time last year we didn’t have Arraez, bell, burger, or good soler or a healthy jazz. Not sure how we scored a single run last year

Thank God for Jake

[fish16]

Remember when Lee was apoplectic that we traded Eder for Jake burger. The guy is going to be a cornerstone in this lineup for years for cheap

Less than 11,000 people in attendance for a game on September 19th with the Marlins .5 game out of the Wild Card. Tickets were FREE with a donation.

he has a payroll that is 63 million below league average. maybe if he invested in his team at merely a league average level people would be willing to invest their own money to support this team in person. When you blow up a team and tank for several years and have extremely below average payrolls, dont expect fans to come out in droves the second you have a little success. it's going to take sustained winning and sustained investment to make this a team that draws 15k on a weekday.

woah, that's big. he's been really solid all year and we are desperate for bullpen arms. are we sure he is not postseason eligible if there is an "injury"? Really glad the guardians fucked us over to claim him and lopez and go a game under .500 for a few weeks and then lose him. They never had a chance to win that division but whatever.

Yeah, as mentioned, he had to be on the roster by Sept 1 to be postseason eligible.

Last night wasn’t just another weekday, though.

It was the last home stand of the year-this team has a real chance of making the playoffs in a full season for the first time in 20 years-weekday baseball.

There were as many Mets fans as there were Marlins fans. It’s pathetic.
