New York Post:
ATLANTA — This wasn’t the time for the Mets to end their impressive streak of series won or tied against division foes, but maybe they were just fortunate they weren’t swept.
Whatever the case, the Braves seem determined to stick around. Thursday night the Mets squandered a chance for an acceptable series split, watching as two grounders turned into the sequence that buried them in a 3-2 loss at Truist Park.
After winning or tying their first 16 series against the NL East this season, the Mets left town with three losses in four games against the defending World Series champions. The Mets lead the Braves by 3 ½ games in the NL East. The teams still have three games remaining against each other, beginning Sept. 30 in Atlanta.
“We won four [of five] when we were back at our place and they won three when we were here,” Brandon Nimmo said. “I am not that disappointed. I am just more disappointed in that I feel like there were some things in this game we could have done a little slightly better and maybe we pull away with this one, but that’s baseball. When good baseball happens it’s usually one or two things.”
New York Post:
Yes, it’s very early for the new guy in town, who was making his third start as a Yankee and his first in The Bronx. But his timing here was terrible. One night after the most dramatic victory of the season, made possible by Josh Donaldson’s grand slam in the 10th, Montas killed off whatever feel-good momentum might’ve carried over. He spiked the notion that the reeling Yanks had finally righted themselves and were fixing to go on another tear.
Montas allowed Toronto six runs and eight hits over six innings, including Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s three-run shot, failing to give his team a reasonable chance to win in what would be a 9-2 defeat. In 14 innings as a Yankee, Montas has surrendered 14 runs and 18 hits.
He's not the same guy this year ... simple as that ... Brewers obviously knew that ... Padres decided to risk it (they've got a pitching coach that seems good) ...
Might be the end in Atlanta.
LynchMob and SeaDogs. Explain.
In the five years from 2014-thru-2018 he averaged 69.8 appearances. Am I surprised at the eventual outcome? Not one bit. That's a lot of getting up, warming up, sitting down, warming up. He truly was gifted with an immense talent and was one of the best relievers of the past ten years. All that's left is for Randy Levine to take a victory lap.
