I'm officially scared now

 

Why?

 

Because God is saving his cruelest trick of all for the NLDS.

 

Uh, OK.

The Giants rocked Lester.

 

huh? he just took a no hitter into like the 8th against them

That's my bad. That was the Mets.

 

You were right. They knocked him around in SF in May.

the giants got a home run and suddenly they are the greatest team of all time

sure, but still a very weird thing to say when he much more recently almost no hit them

While both narratives were annoying (Even Year vs. We swept the NLCS and have their number), I find the Even Year horsefeathers to be far more irritating if only because it's something I feel like will be drummed up a lot on the broadcast, not to mention by their fans.

 

Even though the Mets bullpen is ironically why we're facing the Giants, no doubt the Giants have the weaker of the two bullpens. Just go toe-to-toe with their starters and win the game in the later innings if need be. Done and done.

 

horsefeathers that, I want to hang 5-7 runs on all of Cueto, Shark and Baum. Sweep them

Sad Met fans is fun though.

And now we gotta face Cueto (potentially twice) and his stupid pausing antics on the mound that annoy the horsefeathers out of me

[Gilby]

Well shoot. The Giants are the one team left that matches up fairly well with our 1-4. Fortunately the other parts of their team aren't very good.

Cueto sucks in big games. We got this.

[BigSlick]

welp i guess we're gonna see Even Year [expletive]

 

They'll be a worthy foe

Eat horsefeathers, Mets

The Giants leader in home runs was Belt with all of 17. Their lineup of no-power, all-contact guys going up against the best defensive team of all time? Sure, let's horsefeathering go.

I shall shed no tears for anyone affiliated with the new york metropolitans

Just be patient and get their starters out relatively early then feast on their pen.

Baumgarner post game pulse rate seemed to be about 70. Like he just woke up from a nap.
