    is there any way the giants don't win tonight?
    really hope they don't, but it's like a forgone conclusion

    Nope, pretty much written in stone that they beat the Mets & Cubs.

    When the 2016 post season is done, we will only have ourselves to blame for allowing Even Year Bullshit to live on.

    Thor has been substantially better on extra rest and I believe this is 6 days for him. Apparently it helps with the bone spurs in his elbow. He needs to come out bringing that 98-100 heat with that low 90's sick slider, but can't miss the way he was against us last year. Yes, he did miss his spots a good bit last year, but we were so behind on everything it didn't matter. This Giants team has better ambush hitters than we had so it is going to be extremely important that he hits his spots and is bringing it. Only way Mets win is they can squeak out a couple of early ones or or get him out of there early by working the counts. I'm bummed they made it as their rotation is scary enough to carry them the whole way....

    I love how you've made Even Year Bullshit a proper noun

    Looks like the end of the season sweep that didn't matter and many didn't care about, all of a sudden seems to matter bigger than shit...

    Yeah, it is pretty much fait accompli, almost everywhere.
    I know it's sophmoric, but why do douchebags who get upset when they are looked at, and commit many other acts of heightened douchebaggery, get the infallibility rise from every hack out there?
    Shouldn't the scumbags lose once in a while?

    Bumfuck is the master of the postseason.

    4-1 Pole Smokers.

    A Cespedes solo HR will be the only whimper of protest.

    In true Giant postseason fashion, look for a three run shot by Connor Gillaspie.

    I believe in Thor. I do not believe in the lineup the Mets are throwing out there

    It's crap.

    If Cespedes doesn't come up big, they're screwed.

    The "swing early" approach is a sign of desperation and inferiority. Not a good early indicator for the Mets.

    Nothing wrong with early hacks if you're swinging at fat pitches.

    Giants are going to work Thor out of the game early and attack the bullpen while Bum throws a CG.
