...and there goes the IGT mojo. Damn you KC!

[/sarcasm]

I guess that International League incident wasn't a problem for Lastings.

[stevejrogers]

EHEM! "Don't go changing to try and please... (gets janked off the stage with cane)

Where did the lineups come from, don't see them posted yet in several places

[Guest KC]

I wasn't so sure we had a batter, so I grabbed a bat. I ain't all that big on
IGT mojo after an off day. I'm kinda excited that Milledge is back.

[Guest KC]

I got 'em off 'scores' on USAToday.com, Steve.

] I guess that International League incident wasn't a problem for Lastings.

Lastings got fined $50, no ban.

[Guest martin]

i get the impression that reyes is unhappy with the footing on the dirt in florida. he was hopping around at first, and the step leading into third looked a bit funky and brought him down, leading to beltran getting rundown.

[TransMonk]

Of the approx. 5000 fans in Florida tonight, sounds like the majority are Mets fans.

[TransMonk]

Hmmm...Nady would have had that.

Lastings, you kill me.

[Farmer Ted]

Milledge is a poor man's Jay Payton. Fuck.

[Guest martin]

man, pelfrey is putting a hurtin on that mouthpiece. relax fella!

milledge is gonna feel guilty about that play in left and make up for it with a dinger.

[Farmer Ted]

I'm watching the MLB telecast on TV which shows the Marlins' feed...and Tommy Hutton is killing Milledge. From attitude to hair to the oversized elbow pad ("You haven't earned the right to an oversized pad"). Lastings needs a full-time PR rep.

[metirish]

That was a terrible non-play though....jesus kid this is your chance to shine.

[TransMonk]

I don't disagree with anything Hutton has said.

[TransMonk]

Beltran stays hot and goes KABOOM!

4-1 Mets in the 3rd.

[Guest KC]

How hot is Carlos Beltran?

Scary hot.

[stevejrogers]

Vamos Carlos, Seinor Beltran en fuego

[Elster88]

I heard that Beltran guy is pretty good. Is that true?

[Elster88]

Wearing a giant arm pad is not something you earn. And if it was, then Hutton hasn't earned the right to rip someone for wearing an arm pad.

[TransMonk]

Holy crap! Milledge drew a walk.

[Guest martin]

milledge has been drawing lots of walks, i think his obp in the minors was well over .400.

[TransMonk]

.392 at Norfolk.

More importantly to me, that was just his 5th walk in 25 games at the ML level where his OBP is well below .300. I would love to see our starting rightfielder continue to be patient and get on base more.

[metirish]

Milledge walks again...Keith and Gary talking about Lastings bumping the ump in the minors, Keith says it happened to him when he was in the Texas League, "the ump was hammered drunk", got fined a $100 bucks and the cheque bounced....funny stuff.

Gary - " you just don't know how to get yourself out of trouble do you?".

[metirish]

Bases loaded, Pelfrey is staying in the game, he just can't locate his pitches ,this is a nice test for him.

[metirish]

Yeah nice job from Pelfrey as he gets the SO to end the inning, I love that Willie left him in the game....

[TransMonk]

He passes the test. He's pitched decently. Nothing that will keep him in the rotation, but still some good stuff.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

BIG whiff.

Now let's win it for him.

Cue the inspiring rally song:

]I wanted to be with you alone And talk about the weather But traditions I can trace against the child in your face Won't escape my attention...

[metirish]

Reyes with a home run.......

[seawolf17]
