Marlins-Braves game on a military base looks really cool

So Syndergaard was taken out of the game with an apparent injury. How have the Mets handled this so poorly? He was dealing with an elbow issue for about three straight starts and they kept putting him out there. Seems like they handled him poorly.

What were the Mets supposed to do? Noah said he felt fine. It was a minor bone spur in his elbow which Matz is going through as well. The plan was for Matz to get surgery in the offseason as his is more severe than Thor's.

Noah just came off a dominant outing against the Cubs and was most likely going to start the All Star game. We don't know what the issue is with Noah yet but I'm hoping for the best.

As a Mets fan, it's been a tough day. Harvey done for the year, Cespedes left the game tonight as did Noah. I'm hoping for some good news.

Update: Reports on Syndergaard is that he was removed due to arm fatigue. Not elbow related. I'd be shocked if he isn't replaced for the All Star game.

The Cubs have been consistently mediocre if not bad for over 50 games. How are they still third?

Why are they using DH in a NL park?

cause pitchers don't hit anyways

Only since 2010 I found out.

Ok, so maybe this is more of a confession, but I always enjoy the Home Run Derby and want to go to one someday.

Having said that, this year's doesn't enthrall me much, and in a park where the ball dies...I'm not excited

[GirlySports]

Good start. 15 for Seager.

Those brown jerseys are ooogly

[puffnstuff]

Back, back, back....

[MRCboicgy]

Good Lord, Trumbo

[MRCboicgy]

I remember hearing somewhere that the AL is the "home team" for this one because NL was home last year.

Aha that why the national league were in dark jersey

[Sylvanfan]

I'm surprised the Angels haven't got rid of Scoscia yet. They have an all time great in Trout and are dead last in their Division. They've been underwhelming for a few years now. Seems like ateam that needs to reboot themselves.
