IGT 5/6 - 3rd Sweep in a Row at Arizona? - Pelfrey vs. Livan

Radio mentions the Mets lineup the last time they lost in Arizona- none of them are still on the Mets.

I blame this loss on Elster's hubris in the title and first post.

We needed a PH for either Newhan or Gotay. You either use Alou or not play him in the field or you use LoDuca. I like getting the bench players ABs too, but when the game is on the line, do you use Moises Alou or do you use David Newhan? Loved that Moises was anxious to get in the game, too, just sittin' there, spittin the sunflower seeds.

Both Ron and Gary said over the course of the game that because the Met bench had done well previously, that it was more likely that Newhan (Ron) or Gotay (Gary) would come up with a big hit. Somehow I missed that day of logic school, given that it was Castro/Easley/Franco who had been coming up with the hits off the bench.

Danke, I'm trying to decide whether to put him on reserves

Talk about a complete suck-ass day in baseball. My son sleeps in the afternoon, but because of the late start, rather than catching the Mets game, I had to settle for Yanks-Mariners and Braves-Dodgers. During the Yanks telecast, I watched the M's get shut out, then nearly puked watching the crowd go crazy when Asshead announced he was returning. Then in the Braves game, I watch Grady Little leave in his reliever, who clearly has nothing, long enough for the guy to give up 5 runs and the lead. It's getting to the point that I wonder if Grady knows he's allowed to make pitching changes in the middle of an inning.

Mets lose. Beltran scratched, Alou still not available. Suckass suckass suckass.

Grady is lucky to have gotten a second managing job after that disaster in 2003. I never would have hired him for any position other than "Dumb Guy."

[Guest Edgy DC]

Do you have such an opening?

'Cause I can start real soon.

[Benjamin Grimm]

If you're smart enough to send a resume, then you're overqualified.

That's why we're having trouble filling the position.

[Centerfield]

Well there's always Art Howe.
