8/1 IGT - Mets @ Astros

[Guest KC]

More importantly, I mean I'm tired of him failing ... leaving ... and then
some think that his return is going to be something of large value.

Guys with only a good inning or so to offer belong in the pen.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Nifty DP!

[TransMonk]

Helluva DP 5-4-3!

[seawolf17]

You know what, Carlos? If they're going to overshift in the sixth inning when you're leading off, you drop a bunt on their ass. This isn't a home run situation anyway. Get on base, baby.

[bmfc1]

What the hell is Keith talking about?

[seawolf17]

Or you could double into the corner. That'd be okay too.

I think Keith is off his meds tonight; he's extra silly.

[TransMonk]

Leadoff double stranded.

Grrr...

What are you referring to?

[bmfc1]

His rambling on impressionism.

[Guest AG/DC]

How did Scheid get a base hit when the ball beat him by 15 feet?

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

I might have an aneurysm if Reyes bunts here.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Nevermind, He pokes it through the infield!

[bmfc1]

Gary Cohen shows us again that he is the best in the biz. He called Reyes pulling it by Berkman.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

And now the Mets tradition of putting awful hitters (sorry, Endy) in the 2 slot is put to the test. No whammies!

[Guest AG/DC]

He's not awfull, but he was overmatched against the lefty.

(mondaymorning)We'd've done well to pinch hit Evans(/mondaymorning)

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Endy is terrible. YUCK

PS -- Easley was in already. We could have batted Evans, Castro or Cancel.

[Guest AG/DC]

"Yuck?"

You've been mercilessly beating on Marlon Anderson. Has he called uncle?

[TransMonk]

In-fucking-credible.

[Guest AG/DC]

Well, we made 'em burn three guys.

[metirish]

Un-fucking-believable

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Endy has had 2 especially shitty turns at bat this game.

[bmfc1]

Jerry probably thought that the Mets would take the lead by the end of the inning so he didn't want to lose Endy's glove... except that you have to take the lead before you can worry about protecting the lead. He should have PH Evans (Castro is too much of a DP threat).

[metirish]

And Evens is too much of a threat not to get a hit there.

[Guest AG/DC]

"Erstad is always preparing and rarely makes a mental error, but he made one there."

Translation: "Erstad's white."

[TransMonk]

It would be a shame for the offense not to put up some more runs while the bullpen is keeping us in the game.

Score some runs, boys!

[Guest AG/DC]

No runs.

Stick with Heilman. C'mon.

[TransMonk]

Edgy, are you MLB.TV-ing it tonight, and if so is it crapping out on you at all?

[Guest AG/DC]

Yup.

I figured it was my comp.

[Guest themetfairy]

Fucking hill.

One day someone is going to get seriously injured because of that thing.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

This is going well. Muck the Fets. I'm all pissed off.
