IGT 7/18/10-Mets@Jints-Let's keep the brooms in the closet

[Guest The Second Spitter]

The Mets have never lost whenever I've started an IGT (3-0).

"Let's keep the brooms in the closet" -- sounds vaguely sexual, somehow.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I predict a 14-2 win.

[Guest The Second Spitter]

If the Mets score 14 runs tomorrow I'll give every member of CPF a .........never mind.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

So... Sanchez should balk five guys home today, right?

[Guest Kong76]

From last night ...

Is it OK to panic?[/quote:2ca50lsi]
Yea, it's acceptable.[/quote:2ca50lsi]

My Metsxiety levels are pretty high!

[Ceetar]

Hmm, no lineup yet. Reyes? Pagan? Beltran? Interesting to see. Finally get our Ace though. about time.

When Ollie returns, he goes to the pen

So how will the Mets make room for Ollie?

Aubrey fucking Huff loves him some Mets pitching.

1-0 Giants

[ashie62]

METS!

How tradeable is Bay's contract?

I'd guess Tejada (or if Reyes remains unavailable, Turner) goes down for Castillo. Thole for Ollie? Or Valdes?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Angel Pagan is back.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

David goes KaBlang. You guys will just have to take my word for this but I totally predicted it.

[metirish]

And Bay follows Wright with his warning track power.

[ashie62]

With Reyes at SS that DP is made.

[metsmarathon]

oh, wicked irony. turner can't turn it

Bay really misses those cheap pop fly home runs over the Green Monster. They're just routine outs in most other ballparks. His power seems to have simply disappeared. I think Citi Field has gotten into his head.

Bay's hit 20+ road HR's in two of the last four seasons. During his two years in Boston, 34 of his 67 HR's were away.

[metsmarathon]

the behind the plate camera makes hbp's look so much more hurtful

[Gwreck]

I really wanted Thole to pinch hit for Blanco there. I have no doubt that Jerry was able to hear me suggest same.

Okay, I'll admit I was too lazy to look up his splits. Truthfully, I'm not surprised by the splits you found. As a matter of fact, I find them depressing. It shows that his power outage isn't necessarily attributable to Citi Field's dimensions and may be due to something physical (or mental). Either way, he shows little resemblance to the middle of the line up slugger the Mets envisioned when they signed him this winter.
