When Your Teams Season Is Over

So we are smack dab in the beginning of August. According to the calendar we have 7+ weeks left of regular season MLB. SoulSlam's team, the NEW YORK METS are currently 18 games BELOW .500, with a tremendous record of 47-65. That means 50 games left to go. On the current pace, that puts the team at a finishing record of 68-94. I guess you could whistle in the dark that they wan't lose 100 games.

And so I say this to all the rose-colored Mets fans who, in April, were predicting a WS appearance: I TOLD YOU SO DOPES!

So with that in mind, what's a fan to do? Well, SoulSlam does watch other teams, so my baseball needs are provided a fix. Over the next two+ weeks we will attend a Red Sox-Phillies game in Philadelphia (been 10 years since we've been to Citizen's Bank Ballpark), and we will see at least one, maybe two MiLB games while on vacation. Definitely driving to Mobile for a BayBears game (Angels AA) and maybe checking out the Pensacola Blue Wahoos (Reds AA), though we've been there before. As for the rest of season, I'm sure at least I and YSSS will attend another game or two at Citifield. I'm also tempted to go see the Yankees at the New Yankee Stadium. Haven't been there yet, but my sons have. So I may cross that one off the list.
