IGT 4/17/06 - Pedro pitching against the Bravos

[Willets Point]

I'm CHUCK JAMES, bitch!

[Willets Point]

Betemit just got a serious nad shake from that ball. Good for him that he could recover and throw the first. That's why you wear a cup.

[Gwreck]

Big Cliff: strained ribcage muscle.

[Willets Point]

F-in' Andruw.

First career homerun off Pedro. Couldn't he have waited until the Mets had a bigger lead?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Andruw Jones sez: "Chipper named his kid Shea. But I'm Pedro's daddy."

isn't it "excepted"? not asking to be snotty or anything, i get confused about those two words sometimes.

[Guest Iubitul]

Bud Selig should say, "Andruw, pee in this cup"

[Guest Edgy DC]

]isn't it "excepted"?

Yup. Funny thing is that my excuse for being dead wrong on an editorial matter is that I was editing at the time.

Multi-tasking feeds illiteracy. For me, anyhow.

[Willets Point]

Speaking of pee, Pedro's pissed now and follows up the HR with back-to-back K's.

[Gwreck]

Think that's it for Pedro, a 1-2-3 inning excepted. He's at 97 pitches.

lmao.

Id be surprized if Andrew juices.

Nady keeps on hittin but we have jack bat after him in the lineup.
Well, Pedro can swing a bat.

[Gwreck]

I'm a little surprised to see Pedro back out there for inning #7. Betemit, Pinch hitter (Brian Jordan?) and Orr (who he's Kd twice) probably helps the decision.

[nymr83]

if Floyd goes onthe DL the mets can recall Diaz even if they just sent him down, right?

[Gwreck]

Nice K by Duaner to get us out of the 7th. Time for some insurance runs -- top of the order.

Yep.

[Zvon]

They squeeze Pedro for 2 more outs--I like it.
And i liked that mound meeting when Willie removed him.
Thats a happy team im seein there. They b jellin.

Sanchez comes in and gets the job done.
This i also like.

Big K after that steal.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Duaner Sanchez rocks me like hurricuane.

He can just stay on the bus and take the ride back.
I hope Cliff is okay tho,I really do.
Losing both Beltran and Floyd for this series,..well....
I guess itll be a test for the team to see if they can overcome that vs the Braves.
And i think they can.

[Zvon]

I liked that 3D presentation of the new stadium on ESPN.
Nice.

[A Boy Named Seo]

I thought if you sent a guy down, you can't recall him or 7 or 10 days? Something like that.

[Theoldmole]

I think injury and DL issues can change that.

[Theoldmole]

How bad is Cliffie? Did they say?

[Zvon]

damn nice 8th inning for Sanchez.

Cairo last year.

This year Hernandez.

Keppinger next.



When will you kids learn?


EDIT: BTW, this idea of giving him ANOTHER month is fairly stupid. Now Floyd and Beltran both have questionable health. We can't afford to carry Andy's bat. (Not that we could in the first place.)

[Guest Edgy DC]

Salary is so not an issue.

[Guest mlbaseballtalk]

Couple of Sandmen Entering...

Two more outs away...

[Zvon]

awsum^ sandman pic.


One down-2 to go.

[Elster88]

Geez this is fucking exciting.

Win or lose, a great time to be a Met fan.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Gary Cohen specifically saying "Matt Die-az" instead of Matt "Dee-az."

[Elster88]

How come they all pronounce Franco correctly with Julio but never did with Johnnie B.?
