Pedro DL'd ...

[Guest KC]

... what a shocker!

[Guest GYC]

And Pelfrey to start one of the doubleheader games...

[Centerfield]

Good move. I would rather he took a month off than trying to pitch hurt. It's more important to have him strong down the stretch and into October.

[Guest KC]

Right, and why go to an all-star game when you can go to an island and
see your friends and family?

[Centerfield]

You know, on that island, swimming is a way of life...

[Guest KC]

I don't mean to get too silly, but can anyone imagine the ass on my
avatar losing a cannonball contest off the top board?

[Willets Point]

Muthafucka!

As long as he stays away from Mariano Rivera's pool.

Dumb question from me, if like Pedro you are an All-Star but don't go do you still get that All-Star tag on your resume?

I believe Rivera is from Panama, while Pedro is from the Dominican Republic.

Yup

While UMDB only counts Mets who actually appeared in the game, the Met media guides routinely always lists players selected and eventually replaced due to injury or whatever, so it stays on your record as a selection. You could even go there, come out and doff your cap if you wish, though Pedro won't

Threads are supposed to go to Ralph's ass, not yours...

[Frayed Knot]

Word out of Boston is that Manny is bagging the AS Game as well (knee).
Sounds like he & Petey will be back in the DR together sucking down some cool mango drinks.

Doesn't mean Rivera doesn't own Pools of Death across the Western Hemisphere.

[Guest Edgy DC]

It strikes me that, considering the actual meaining of "Enter Sandman," maybe he should get exclusive rights to it.
