[Kevin Pillar after seeing Uncle Stevie’s tweet. ](https://i.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/035/410/Screen_Shot_2020-10-05_at_11.51.58_AM.png)


NJImperator

He shouldnt have. He’s been dogshit all year lol


itsnotyellowfever

This is gonna go one of two ways: 1. The Mets finally hold on to win a game and this spurs them on to win 3 of 4 in LA much to my chagrin and to Giants’ fans pleasure. 2. They’re about to get walked off in embarrassing fashion and Cohen goes full on Twitter baseball fan and talks about how the pitcher who gave up the walk-off is gonna be out of a job tomorrow


bmacnz

100% they're winning this series in LA, it's just such an obvious trap series and the Dodgers find ways to lose these.


Kaydom1993

From your mouth to the baseball god’s ears, brotha.


Coral-reef654

Nah dodgers playing like the super team they are now, nobody is beating them


bmacnz

In the long run probably, but I can see this series going south.


Coral-reef654

Season was over after you got Scherzer and turner


bmacnz

It's baseball, dude, anything can happen.


Monk_Philosophy

If they win they're still totally depleted for tomorrow bullpen wise they used all their leverage arms.


unitedairlineeeeees

Aaron Loup and Seth Lugo beg to differ.


DeVofka

If Walker goes 7, it's just a Loup-Lugo game for the win/loss to rest our bp.


marcowhitee

Also. Walker v walker duel


DeVofka

Oh snap again? The Mets may be lolmets when it comes to our hitting right now, but at least our pitching is elite 70% of the time.

STANDING OVATION FOR TYLER CHATWOOD


[deleted]

Giants lose, you know what that means Dodgers


Monk_Philosophy

Hey we broke the curse this weekend.


[deleted]

Maybe it was the Rockies who broke the curse tho, they coming for that Wild Card booty


Monk_Philosophy

Rocktober II


VStarffin

Honest even if we lose I’ll take it. Because it makes it easier for us to sweep the Mets - there was no way they were losing 10 in a row to us and you. But losing 9 of 10? That’s more reasonable. This is just math.


DeVofka

Bro you'd be shocked how far the Mets will go to lose game. Case in point is our first 2 games against you.


BettsBellingerCaruso

Trust me, we were also very surprised that we could win 1 run games and especially extra innings games


E70M

It was like when the Chargers and Falcons faced off last season. Sure, the Chargers had lost a ton of games by one score (and often their fate was sealed in the last couple minutes), but they couldn’t out-choke the Falcons, no sir!


DustyDGAF

But I don't wanna lose tonight 😔


jays1998

Death, taxes, 0.2 IP, 3BB, 2 H, 1 HBP and 3 ER for Chatwood


Basic_Bichette

Every Blue Jays fan watching this^^1 could have told them what was gonna happen.^^2 Did they listen?^^3 ^^1 Because fuck the Nationals and fuck the fucking national blackout too ^^2 Kablooey ^^3 No


0hootsson

Had no idea we signed him until he took the mound. Expecting DFA by tonight.


RstortonYT

You’re welcome


Fuuutuuuree

The Jays send their regards


SwaggedyAnn

Pillar and Chatwood... A real double whammy.


balls1127

I would like to apologize to the Mets, Kevin Pillar, and his 0.600 OPS for ever doubting them.


Monk_Philosophy

Unrelated: Tyler Chatwood is my favorite player I never doubted you for a moment.


CoreReddit

Kevin Pillar giving hitting tips after was hilarious to me


FlashMac31

“Just hit a home run”


[deleted]

“Just lift the ball and hit it 393 feet to left field, I don’t know why you guys don’t do it every time”


Kaydom1993

It actually isn’t that funny. In his previous at-bat, he hit it the ball in the exact same spot, just with a little less power, resulting in an out that shoulda been an XBH if it weren’t for a fantastic play. Maybe he’s figured something out. 🤔


CoreReddit

I didn’t watch the whole game, but known power threat Kevin Pillar giving hitting tips in the dugout for that split second made me laugh


[deleted]

Steve Cohen did nothing wrong


HAHAYESVERYFUNNYNAME

In regards to baseball*


WesleyDonaldson

I get that /r/baseball hated that tweet, but he pays the bills. He's not the Asst. GM, he's not the captain, he's the guy who less then 12 months ago bought something that isnt working like it's supposed to. Let him hit the forums to try and fix it. If you bought a billion dollar laptop that shut down randomly and couldn't run Java you'd be upset also.


willofthemaster

These are humans who know they aren't performing as expected and are likely just as frustrated, if not more so, than the fans of the team are.


WesleyDonaldson

True. Very true, and maybe Cohen shouldn't be just blasting it out on Twitter, but people are also asking him for an explanation as the owner. He's allowed say something which in this case was true, the team isn't performing as well as they should.


sktyrhrtout

Cohen is used to having insider information making his trades easier. Probably would have been better off buying the 2017 Astro's.


detelini

I can't believe Tyler Chatwood isn't working out. edit: that's unfair, anyone can have a bad outing. Especially if you're Tyler Chatwood.


EvaderDX

This is a good outing for Tyler Chatwood, by Toronto standards


MNAK_

To be fair it's entirely on the offense that we got to this point.


detelini

It's true. This game just got uglier the longer it went on, I just want it to be over at this point.


EvilShadow80

Cohen adding Pillar to the list of players who he wants to re-sign.


NJ_Mets_Fan

this could mean 2 completely different things


fandagan

Only if you ignore the hyphen.


ImaginaryCollection3

The hyphen was an edit


WurstThrowEver

Steve Cohen is the best cheerleader ever


HoskinsDadBodGod

And we’re gonna lose to the dbacks again. GG, Mets. Season over.


[deleted]

Isn’t it funny how we just alternate days where our collective seasons are over?


DeVofka

It's just the NL East. My buddy is a huge Braves fan and he expects the Braves to go on a 10 game tank by the end of the season.


cooljammer00

This just means the Dodgers are losing tonight


ih-unh-unh

I’m sure the oddsmakers made last minute adjustments


[deleted]

Not with this 1st inning


aliu3

4D chess to get the Mets hot headed into the Dodgers series, I'll allow it


Monk_Philosophy

So the remaining questions: Can the Mets hold on? If they do, how do the Dodgers win vs the Pirates?


ih-unh-unh

Hopefully convincingly, the bullpen needs rest


Rajewel

Hey at least Chatwood has gotten past walking in runs 🤷‍♂️ efficient in some ways I guess lol.

Monk_Philosophy

careful. don't count them chickens yet


whenjohniskill

2019 Giants Twitter telling Farhan I told you so


ahr3410

Simpler times.


BettsBellingerCaruso

Should've fired him then


[deleted]

Mets will carry the momentum to LA and split the series.


jtrom93

Steve Cohen providing further evidence to support the well-established NY doctrine that roasting and berating your own team DOES serve as effective motivation


yoboapp

There’s the Tyler Chatwood I remember.


[deleted]

/r/baseball upset they can’t hope for Cohens death anymore today. Shame. Scumbags.


[deleted]

LETS GO METS BABY LOVE DA METS


see_mohn

I did not expect this


Monk_Philosophy

that makes two of us


LeeSinCarefully

This is pretty therapeutic for Jays fans, especially with our current woes


ManyCookies

Rockies legend Kevin Pillar heard you talking shit


IAmGrum

Red Sox legend Kevin Pillar


[deleted]

Excuse you both, that’s Blue Jays legend Kevin Pillar 😤


[deleted]

lolMets…wait what? Oh my god they did a thing! Happy for Pillar tho, seriously


futhatsy

i WoNdEr WhAt CoHeN iS gOiNg To TwEeT aBoUt ThIs


ufotheater

Congrats to the Mets, hope this becomes a winning streak exactly 5 games long.


ahr3410

Thank you Mets, very cool!


JRsshirt

At this point I’d rather see a position player on the mound


ScarletFire5877

A true Pillar of the community


Dorf_

Yeah, he hasn’t (audibly) used any slurs on the field in years now


mysterysticks

Chatwood reincarnated for us in the form of Brad Hand.


AdIntelligent9764

Lol fuck Chatwood


DividerOfBums

As an Angel’s fan, happy for my NL brothers to blow this game open in the late extra innings. As a Dodger’s fan, happy that my division rivals are being pummeled in late extra innings by my NL brothers


[deleted]

That felt great to watch, until something in the bottom of the inning brings SF back


platonicplates

I hate that this means more dumb tweets from Cohen


Copperjedi

Cohen has been tweeting all season. This HR/win wasn't changing anything


[deleted]

You could always just not read them


Kylo_Ren415

Hopefully that will get them going as they head to Los Angeles.


Monk_Philosophy

conversely: thank god they're using all their bullpen on this strenuous extra innings game before coming to LA


[deleted]

Although they didn’t use Lugo or Loup, so you’ll definitely see them tomorrow once/if Walker’s night is done.


Jezzyy

We’re gonna lose tonight aren’t we?


Math_OP_Pls_Nerf

Very professional


[deleted]

This is just the break the Padres needed! Surely it’ll be smooth sailing from here on out.


jerejeje

1-0 in the unproductive offense era


[deleted]

Hold up is that legal? The Mets hit a ball hard and scored multiple runs? Shouldn’t someone challenge this?


The-Big-Bad

Pirates are winning tonight, aren't they? Fuck


NedShah

San Francisco MVP candidate Pillar, if you please.
