IGT 05/28, Marlins at Mets

[Gwreck]

Johan Santana, potential walk-off hero.

[Guest KC]

Relief corps getting it done, nice job by Heilman/Wags/Sanchez.

LET'S SCORE A RUN, I'M FREAKIN' TIRED, ALREADY.

Sorry, didn't mean to shout.

[Guest AG/DC]

Duaner hit 91.

Well, Gameday says 90.8.

And that's the release speed.

But it's nice to see him throwing something like big-league cheese.

[Gwreck]

P.S. -- Things I disagreed with: letting Evans hit.

Was fine with Chavez leading off, but since he hit for Castro, Schneider had to come into the game. And in extras, he obviously wanted Chavez in the OF. So not hitting Schneider for Evans (who I maintain cannot hit major league pitching, in the sample size we have) is not a good move.

[Guest AG/DC]

Hanley showing that Derek Jeter range.

[Frayed Knot]

The thing about hitting for Castro is that if he would have gotten on you'd almost have to run for him anyway.

I think Willie's been playing this one well tonight.
I was wondering why Mainer PR-ing instead of Santana but saving Johan for the potential hitting slot was smarter.

[Gwreck]

Sanchez has 2 Mets plate appearances to date: a K and a HBP.

[Elster88]

Sanchez doesn't watch his bunts. Only Reyes.

[Fman99]

Big at-bat for Castillo.

[Guest AG/DC]

Luis Castillo, today you become a man.

Don't forget we have a very depleted bench.

I was gonna say that.

[Frayed Knot]

Tell them guys to be quiet. I don't want the Fish to know JJ is too deep!!!!

[Fman99]

And on to the 12th they go. I thought he had gotten enough of that one.

[Guest AG/DC]

Besides Willie, I also want to say the Shea fans have done a decent job tonight.

Yes, but as I said in my post, he had to bring Schneider into the game anyway, because he hit Chavez for Castro.

[Gwreck]

SNY is showing clips of the '69 Mets singing "You Gotta Have Heart" on the Ed Sullivan show.

[Frayed Knot]

Unfortunately AA in CF was deep too

[Fman99]

FUCK.

[Frayed Knot]

You gotta be fucking kidding me!

[Guest themetfairy]

Crap

[nymr83]

Amezaga homers to give the Marlins a 6-5 lead.

[Guest AG/DC]

There's been a lot of "first homer of the year" type moments of late.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We're bringing up the guys to tie it up

[Fman99]

One last chance for the Metsies to avoid another loss. Big hitters due to hit for the Mets - Wright, Beltran and Easley.

[Guest KC]

They'll get it back.

Justin Miller can kiss our collective ass afterwards.

[Guest AG/DC]

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

4-pitch walk to Wright.

[Fman99]

Nice leadoff BB for Wright. C'mon Carlos!

LET'S GO METS!

[Guest AG/DC]

Justin Miller, American hero.
