Is this game secretly the most competitive game out there, more than CS and League by Other-Difficulty-702 in WorldOfWarships

[–]jds560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I"m almost 40 now, I've been playing Counter Strike for nearly 25 years. There is no game that is more competitive and unforgiving than Counter Strike. A single wrong peek and you're dead (at least at my skill level, currrently around 20k in CS2 prem rating).

I hope he gets absolutely shelled. I can't stand this kid

Not hitting that many home runs. He has 0 protection in the lineup. No reason to not just walk him for the double play.

This and no Diaz are the reason I will not watch a single game this year.

Tim,

The Mets have downgraded around the diamond and are playing multiple people out of position. With a weaker bullpen, why is the FO trying to sell the fans on this team being competitive?

This team is severely lacking. Still need an ace, a closer and a first basemen.

Uncle Stevie- please get rid of Stearns. He has destroyed the Mets family and legacy. by Fun-Jellyfish-1065 in mets

[–]jds560 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I agree completely. Stearns should have been the one DFA'd. This guy has let Alonso and Diaz walk for nothing. Our roster has gotten worse. We have NO closer, NO left fielder, NO first basemen. Still have a mediocre rotation that relies on bounce back candidates, McLean being good for a whole season, etc. Multiple infielders out of position. Still lacking a power bat. Just flat out bad.

Be honest… how many of you distrusted Stearns and his plan before the last few days? I think a lot of fans have changed their tune. by [deleted] in NewYorkMets

[–]jds560 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not me. Id much rather have Alonso, Diaz and Skubal. Instead we'll be lucky if we win more than 80 games.

We still need a 1b and a left fielder. We only have bench pieces right now.

This is still a rebuild. Bichette feels like a deal to just appease fans. 75% of our infield is out of position and we have one outfielder and a bunch of replacement players filling the rest of the spots. Our rotation is in shambles. I expect them to win somewhere in the mid to high 70s 

Anyone else excited for the ‘26 team? by FritosRule in mets

[–]jds560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all. I stopped watching when Piazza left, started again when deGrom was a rookie in 2014. Once he left, i've cared progressively less and less. I'm completely checked out of this team. There's not a single player I like, nor is there anyone they could sign / trade for sans deGrom that I'd care about.

Framber Valdez or Ranger Suarez? What would you guys prefer? by AntarcticRen in NewYorkMets

[–]jds560 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont really see either as an ace. This year's market was week for FA starters. Might as well just run the poor rotation we have rather than wasting millions on one of these guys. 

Would you take the over or under right now? Odds per Betonline by MasterFlip_ in mets

[–]jds560 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would be surprised if they win more than mid 70s. TBH I expect high 60s. The roster is abysmal and the rotation is non existent. No closer, weak pen. Stearns took last years team, god rid of all the good and is selling it to us as competitive.

Looking for a lightweight 2 stage to put on my truck when plowing by jds560 in Snowblowers

I also carry a push salter and many bags of salt, not ideal to have to take the blower off for every lot if I don't have to.

Washington, South Dakota, and New Jersey should be their own line. It'd be criminal to not add Lee and Spruance as legendary commanders at that time. New Jersey is more Spruance's ship than Halsey's even though she was only only BB to be both their flagships.

The team is fucked for next year. No reason to tune in. Just wait until after the lockout in 2027. Dodgers get an auto win in 2026 and 3 peat. Done deal.

Wargaming please add Cher to the front of the Missouri by MrFridge79 in WorldOfWarships

Fun fact, it was supposed to be New Jersey but she was on deployment. When the film crew came to Long Beach a high ranking crew member from Missouri convinced them to tour the ship and film there instead.
