End This National Nightmare: IGT 5/20/2010 NYM @ WAS

[G-Fafif]

In the case of Maine v. Atilano, I find for the plaintiff, and award damages of more runs scored than allowed.

Perhaps if Elena Kagan were on the high court, she'd see to it that the Mets don't leave D.C. winless.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wow, Davis really is our cleanup hitter.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Well, he is outslugging Jason Bay. (Although, to be fair, so is Pagan. And Blanco.)

Not that there are all that many alternatives-- cough, Animal, cough, cough-- but do you want the free-swingers clustered in front of the pitcher like that?

As he will be until roughly 2023, when the Mets have a hot new prospect and the manager is criticized for moving him up in the order ahead of the fabled veteran Davis.

Are you defending or criticizing this move? Just reading what you wrote I'm honestly not sure.

Are you kidding me?!?! After all the years Davis has given to this franchise, winning seven WS titles? They're just going to push him to DH to make room for Pedro Guerrero III? Omar's only doing that because Guerrero's a Latino.

Wright to Nymr83: "FU"

[nymr83]

well its about time.

meanwhile, the continuing threat ends on a hard liner right back to the mound for a doubleplay.

[Guest Kong76]

Maine lasts one batter, possibly hurt. He and Jerry jawin'
a little and Manuel appears pissed off!?!

[metirish]

Maine out of the game already... something happened.....Manuel is ripping him a new asshole in the dugout....did Maine start the game when he shouldn't have?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Go Gangsta, Jerry. Kick these guys if they need a kick.

[nymr83]

double play!

[A Boy Named Seo]

Anybody have any more on the John Maine thing? I couldn't figure out why the hell Nieve was already in this game.

Noting yet....it's Valdes in the game btw...

[nymr83]

Adam Rubin says...

John Maine was pulled from Thursday's game after issuing a leadoff walk to Nyjer Morgan. There was no immediate word on Maine's issue, but it's believed his shoulder had been bothering him recently. The Mets seemed to be aware of an issue with Maine before he departed. Raul Valdes, who replaced Maine, had been warming before Maine threw a pitch in the game.

so there has to be some kind of injury if Valdes was warming up before Maine went out there

I suspect JM wanted to stay in the game but was being over-ruled.

[metirish]

Ronnie-" unless the manager is pissed at you he'll walk of with you"....talking about the body language of Jerry.

[Guest Kong76]

Who knows what was said, it looked like Jerry didn't even want
to get near Maine on the mound and made the move and walked
away from a John Maine in disgust leaving him and Werthen on the
mound. The dugout interaction looked testy too. The Mets may have
four new pitchers in the rotation after Johan before we know it.

[nymr83]

Perez and Maine could both not last the month, we need Niese back from injury fast.

Jerry sucks and fire Jerry and all that, but Omar failed to get another starter this offseason and everyone claimed they knew that was a big mistake

[nymr83]

Ike whacks double!

[bmfc1]

Ken Rosenthal says that the Mets are shopping Castillo to make room for Murphy.

I'm not a fan of Luis' but that's the least of their worries right now.

... Omar failed to get another starter this offseason and everyone claimed they knew that was a big mistake[/quote:3o8onldq]

Absolutely. During ST, we heard that the Mets needed 2 of 3 out of Pelfrey, Maine and Perez to come through. They got 1 out of 3 and the anointed 5th starter got hurt. I'm all for Jerry going away but Omar must go as well.
