IGT: Mets and Cards in da rubba match

[seawolf17]

The second-worst part about Lima is that he's disgracing the number 17. If I was Keith Hernandez I'd poison his postgame spread.

[TransMonk]

Phils up on the Brew Crew 3-0 in the 3rd.

[seawolf17]

Holy crap! You see those guys on the roof of the Millennium hotel? Ronnie's right -- you gotta make A-Rod money to do something like that.

Too be clear, I'm speaking about Heilman here, in response to the Monk. I don't think this is too kind.

[seawolf17]

And Jerry Manuel has been ejected from the game. Maybe he was tired of watching Lima and just decided to start cursing at Tim Welke.

My bad---Lima's ERA is of course 9+ and I should have realized you weren't talking about him.

OK then release Lima NOW! and have him fill in as bench coach for the rest of the game.

[Guest Hillbilly]

Beltran KA-BOOM!

With his free time and how long a day it looks like it's gonna be, he can check out the Gateway Arch and the Bowling Hall of Fame.

Harsh, The park and Zoo are nice.

Or perhaps he can go find a Little League team somewhere who will be willing to take on Lima in a trade.

He's still younger than Danny Almonte, so why not? His wife (and STD, if we believe the lawsuit) might prove problematic, though.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Can we talk of the Kaboomage please?

Manuel's fire and ire clearly inspired Beltran's power.

Find yourself Lima. Center. Reach deep. Draw the energy from your environment and feel it feed your core.

Feel it Jos�.

[Centerfield]

Bottom of the lineup. Get 'em and get our boys back out there.

(and as I type, Bennett barely misses a HR and then grounds out to Reyes)

Anyone ever see that Norman Rockwell painting where the kid is holding a bag full of silverware and sheepishly looking at his parents who are standing in the doorway watching? The title is "It's for the Arch, Dad".

Apparently, when they built the Gateway Arch, the archdiocese of St. Louis launched a public spirited campaign getting kids to collect scrap metals for the project. They quickly withdrew the campaign when reports started coming in of scenes like the one immortalized in the Rockwell painting.

7 in a row for Lima.

How Jose Got His Groove Back.

Bannister to go to NY and have an MRI tomorrow.

[seawolf17]

F Lima. I'd rather let Jose F Valentin pitch.

[Centerfield]

Spezio with a big FU to the CPF for celebrating Pujols' day off.

Would that be a "CPFU"?

[Guest Edgy DC]

I was accepted to CPFU, but opted for Manhattan College instead.

Only Jose getting one of his runs not charged due to his own throwing error keeps him from keepign his earned-run-per-inning record intact.

[Theoldmole]

MRI for Bannister tomorrow.

On edit...I see this is not news.

[nymr83]

i hope that "lima time" is done for good.

[Centerfield]

I hate losing day games during the week. This will mean I'll go home tonight, look for something on TV, find a replay of this craptastic game, then have to change the channel before my eyeballs project themselves from my head.

[seawolf17]

This guy is so taguchi. He might just be the taguchiest player in baseball.

[Centerfield]

Maybe, but I know a guy who's just a Tad Iguchi.
