IGT: Philadelphia Phillies (98-58) vs. New York Mets (74-82) 9/23-9/25

[More-Than-Most]

Doooomed

The 19 hits cheered me up more than the win. Still not enough to salvage a rough day though.

feels like we just won the WS....bring on the bravos...we conceivably could knock them out of the playoffs and THEN play the Cardinals in the first round....

I'd prefer to play the braves rather than the cards in the playoffs

[More-Than-Most]

I would rather knock the braves out and play the cards I think. Just because of all the hype they got before the season and because losing to them in the playoffs or watching them win a world series would make me die inside.

I am leaning towards the braves but the cards are starting to scare the **** out of me.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if the Braves hang on don't we play the Diamondbacks? I personally would want to avoid the Cardinals as much as possible.

We can't play the Braves in the 1st round, so if you are implying that we play the Braves in the NLCS, then I can live with that!

[Jbendz]

There is an outside chance that we can brom the Braves, knock them out of the playoffs while breaking the franchise record for wins on them in the process. That would certainly make up for the 8 game losing streak and send us into the playoffs on a high note.

I don't give a rats *** who we play in the first round. All 3 of them will be a scary match up in a 5 game series.

We could still end playing the Brewers. Arizona still has a shot at the 2 seed.
