IGT, 9/21, vs. Miami

[TransMonk]

I remember that song being pretty popular that summer along with Smashmouth, Sugar Ray, Britney, all the boy bands and Limp Biscuit. Not a great time for popular music. Good year for the Mets, though.

Tomorrow's a 4PM EST FOX game. Word I heard was that Green was going to play even with the sun still up.

[TransMonk]

Game on! Mota warming.

[Valadius]

Play ball!

[Zvon]

Im breaking one of my cardinal rules.
A cup a coffee late at night.

Ill spike it with a shot of brandy.

mmmmmm,nastilicous.

Chavez singles,... do the do Alou!

[Frayed Knot]

I was mentally resigned to a rainout here.
I have to get back into game mode.

[Valadius]

The Fish have 5 errors in the game. We better win this one.

[Zvon]

I do believe Mota does his best pitching after rain delays.

Im sure one of you guys can come up with the numbers to either
back that up of shoot it down.


*Zvon ducks before they even start throwing stuff.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Oh, jive.

Randolph is real determined to make sure Mota's name is in his obituary, isn't he?

[Gwreck]

He did pitch a scoreless inning yesterday, I believe.

[Guest Edgy DC]

His ball seemed to be dancing there against Oliva.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

="Gwreck"]He did pitch a scoreless inning yesterday, I believe.

I don't understand why, with all the fresh arms in the pen, Willie still trots out the same guys who must be gassed and are struggling.

You'd think this might be a spot for a guy like Humber.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Is Muniz in the house?

[TransMonk]

Encouraging inning for Sosa.

[Zvon]

I may have to make a sign for Mota saying : "Stick a needle in it, Mota!"

Hey!
That was a nice inning.

[Gwreck]

I don't understand why Humber or Sele aren't pitching now either. I know, it's a crucial game. But still, you need to get some innings somewhere, I'd wait to use the key relievers if there was a problem.

Mota, too. I tip my cap. I've been critical of him.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'm sure he's afraid Humber will be overmatched and wants the more experienced guy.

I understand it. Don't agree with it.

But there are no obvious options.

Yes, wearing 38 as per SNY, early in the broadcast tonight.

It's late...a couple of beers during the delay...my apologies to Mota. And Sosa.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Beltran has a bruised patella tendon, according to the radio. Will be out for at least a couple days, probably more.

[Guest Edgy DC]

That second straight scoreless inning gets Mota's ERA down to 5.80.

[TransMonk]

If Beltran's gonna play princess I need to see more out of Delgado.

That's a nice start for the other Carlos.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Welcome back, Carlos!!!

Well what they said was that he was scheduled to arrive and be assigned #38 but were unsure about whether or not he was there yet.
Problem is that he ws already home in California.

[Guest Edgy DC]

BAKOOM!!

[Valadius]

Carlos goes KABOOM!!!

[Gwreck]

I'd run for Dukie here. Give him a rest for the balance of the game.

[Zvon]

How does a guy with the last name of Garcia get a first name of Harvey?
