[Guest mario25]

The Marlins sure knocked him out in the first inning last year

And he starts with a walk.

Schoeneweis is up and throwing.

And now an infield hit to Teixiera.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

What are you all worried about? If history tells us anything, it's that Glavine can't pitch beyond the sixth inning of any game -- or bad things happen. I'm sure our guys are licking their chops to get at that backdraft bullpen the Braves have. And ours is pretty well rested after the rainout, day off and strong starting against the vile Skanks.

[Benjamin Grimm]

And Maine is out of the game, none out and two on in the fifth.

No Schaefer for Mr. Vacationland today.

[metirish]

If we are going to lose a game today I would rather it be this one , I can watch the game tonight at least.

[Guest AG/DC]

Go, Show, Go.

[Centerfield]

I'd rather win this one. I really really really don't want to lose to Tom Glavine.

[Fman99]

Tom Glavine needs to be punched in the neck. And his wife is a ****.

She pissed me off last year in Milwaukee... in that game that Glavine was trying to get #300 and the Mets pen blew the lead. It was still a tie game, and still hope for Mets fans, and she's sitting in the crowd like someone pooed on her shoe. Fuck her.

OK I feel better now.

[Guest mario25]

I agree, not Glavine

[metirish]

Look at us , picking which games we would rather win like we only lose 1 game in 10.

[Fman99]

Hey cool.

I was just looking that game up on UMDB and saw that every game has a link to the Shaefer POTG votes awarded by the CPF. Sweet!

[Benjamin Grimm]

="Fman99"]Tom Glavine needs to be punched in the neck. And his wife is a ****.

Wow, both of your catchphrases in the same paragraph.

You must be such a joy to be around!

[Guest AG/DC]

Now.

[Guest mario25]

Joke inning

[Benjamin Grimm]

Glavine coming out of the game, and Keith can't believe it. He's retired his last 17 batters, and only threw 82 pitches.

[Guest AG/DC]

Keith is right.

Tom Seaver would start crying.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I agree. It's nuts, especially with a weak bullpen, to pull Glavine after six.

Keith backtracks: "Bobby Cox must know what he's doing."

Ron: "I wouldn't argue with him. He scares me."

Let's Go Mets

Big time!

As for Glavine, you just know he was glaring in there at Cox for sending him out there for the sixth! I thought it was in his contract that he only goes five.

[Guest AG/DC]

Just.

Reach.

Safely.

LOL.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Gary Cohen: "Brian McCann adds to Aaron Heilman's misery with a two-run homer, and the Braves have a 6-1 lead."

[seawolf17]

Words just can't explain how badly I feel for Aaron Heilman. The guy just can't get out of his own way.

[metirish]

And Cohen adds to my misery.

[metirish]

That post by me makes no sense.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

The whole freakin system is out of order

[Guest AG/DC]

Ed Glynn. Maybe he can manage.

[Willets Point]

The Mets are starting their big comeback against the Atlanta pen now, yes?

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I'm seriously wondering in Heilman needs to wear a Zypher uniform for a month work out whatever the heck it is that he needs to work out, because he clearly is untracked.

I feel all tingly when you talk to me like an Eastern European beauty innocent of baseball and its cruel vicissitudes.
