I am very confident with that as a playoff lineup.

[metirish]

Beltran with home run, a monster shot for a career high 39 homers....hey anyone else having problems in here tonight?

[TransMonk]

A little bit...it comes and goes.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Boom!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Wright gets one to drop in right, Delgado scores.

2-0 Mets after 1/2.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Standing O for Kazzy in DC.

[metirish]

Kaz with a hit and is now 8 for 18 since getting called up.

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's it, Kaz. No more cheers for you in DC.

[Guest Edgy DC]

He looks good with the short hair.

[dinosaur jesus]

Is Oliver warming up yet?

[MFS62]

Somebody ought to tell Traschell that he can relax - his balls have been humidified.

Later

[TransMonk]

Hey BK...walks kill.

[metirish]

Holy crap,Reyes with a two run opposite field home run.....yeah it's Coors filed but still.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

For Jose

[TransMonk]

Reyes now has as many home runs this month as he had all last year.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

How badly has Reyes already bludgeoned the "best seasons by a Met SS" mark?

[dinosaur jesus]

Jose now slugging .493. Who'd have guessed.

[Willets Point]

Kaz Matsui as a Met seems a long, long, long time ago.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Trax is in trouble. It's now 4-3, with Rockies on 2nd and 3rd and nobody out

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Whew - Trax got out of the ugly inning maintaining a 4-3 lead!

[dinosaur jesus]

I appreciate how Trachsel works out of trouble. I'd just be a lot happier if he didn't get into so much trouble.

Well, his modest 2005 was the standard, and he's exceeded that even if he plays the rest of the season barefoot and without a glove.

Steve Trachsel is a superhero. A little Clark Kent, a little Superman.

[TransMonk]

The Rockies TV crew is pretty good. I've come to dread road games with MLB TV...but these guys seem knowledgable and realistic about their ballclub. A far cry from most homer announcers.

[Guest Edgy DC]

... whoever they are. I more or less agree.

[metirish]

Keith is a bloody blast,talking about tough guys in baseball he says he used to worry about the guy coming in form the pen trying to hit from behind in the pile of players in the scrum...Keith don't ever change.

[TransMonk]

Looks like Drew Goodman and George Frazier.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Frazier's not there, because they were talking about him.

Reyes just rox. Did you see how fast Matsui got down the line on that hard grounder up the middle to Reyes, by the way? Made Jose gun him down.
