Alou's calf "stiffened up" during the rain delay and is out today.
He may need another MRI.

[G-Fafif]

Beat Brandon Webb...just for the hell of it.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Go Big Pelf. Destroyed the leadoff baserunner with a pickoff and it's 123

[metirish]

Minaya in the booth explaining what it is.........it's a " glut" that the Mets are in , at least I think that's what he said.

[G-Fafif]

Oh please tell me he and everybody are resigning.

[metirish]

I like how he lumped Ron and Gary in with " everyone that works here" wanting this thing to work , " because we all care"....


Good pitching going on here by both pitchers.

[G-Fafif]

I liked how one of the "theories" Omar didn't label a misconception is that the Mets suck.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Alou out of the line-up AGAIN???? In-freaking-credible.

Poor Pelfrey pitching well again, and has no support to show for it.

Yeah but when Alou is healthy he can roll out of bed and get hits , problem is he gets injured rolling out of bed he's so shot.

[G-Fafif]

Mets Guy in Mich. and I are tied at a Joe Foyish 1,587 posts apiece!

At least we were 'til...now.

Which is when the Mets get first and third and nobody out!

[G-Fafif]

Oh Foy!

[Guest KC]

Mets up 2-sniffle!

Omar sucks!

[G-Fafif]

Mets take it to Webb...literally.

[metirish]

Delgado hits one back to Webb who takes it on the arm or back , runners on the corners with one out , Mets up two tp zip.

[G-Fafif]

Marlons puts his game where his bizarre note is. Either way, it's 3-0.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Gary asked Omar "what surprises you the most?" and Omar said the "streakiness."

The question made me think: Of all the reasons the Mets are around .500, are any of them particularly surprising? The only one is that Beltran is having a subpar season so far. Nothing else seems surprising. Not the injuries. Not the uneven performances from Perez.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I'm back -- sneaking peeks at work.

G-FAFIF, I gotta catch up with some quality posts because Joe Foy is most certainly an omen that is bad for all of us.


Nice to see Pelf get some support! Now let's hold 'em. Somebody send Heilman to run an errand to Jersey or something....

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

That was a fun inning. You gotta love it when a guy whacks the opposing pitching in the ass with a line drive. And it was right that they got Beltran home after he drove in the first 2.

I like the Mets again, I'm such a wuss.

Are you he didn't say toilet?

[Guest KC]

Pelfrey gets a hit!

Omar sucks!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I'm feeling it tonight. I think the streak of shame ends and redemption points all around.

[Guest KC]

I don't do shame.

This is probably the kiss of death IGT wise, but this game is buzzing along
nicely time wise.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Hey, they knocked Brandon Webb out of the game. That's a good sign.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

The injury report on FOX's gamecast says Santana is day-to-day with a bruised shoulder. What happened to him?

[nymr83]

why did webb leave??

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I think it was because they're down three runs and needed some hits, hoped to get something going.

He got hit with a pitch trying to bunt last time out, IIRC.

he threw 58 pitches over 5 and hadnt walked anyone, i'd have left him in

[metirish]

Webb was taken out because he took a liner from Delgado to the arm/back .
