Series Thread: Metsies @ Cubbies 6/3-6/5

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Winning those 4 of 5 in Philly just a few days ago seems like an aberration now.

This team will find new ways to beat themselves and lose when you least expect.

I can only hope TC's ouster is imminent.



That being said..I have tickets for 2 of the Giants games out here this weekend..(fri. & sat.) and I'm still debating whether to go to both, or just the Saturday game. Niese pitches tomorrow, and Colon goes on saturday night.

CHICAGO (6/5)-- Here are the lineups for the Mets' 7:05 p.m. ET series finale Thursday against the Chicago Cubs. This marks the first time the Mets play a series of exclusively night games at Wrigley Field, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary. The stadium had lights installed in 1988.


Jacob deGrom remains in search of his first win as the Mets attempt to avoid getting swept before flying to San Francisco.

Resting Daniel Murphy is out of the starting lineup for the first time since missing the opening two games of the season because of the birth of his son.

Not gonna call this game a must win...but fwiw, I'm gonna consider it pretty damn close to being one.

Would be nice if they came out here to SF on a winning note before I go see them play this weekend.
