You Make the Call: RA Dickey

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I don't think we ever got to this guy.

[Ceetar]

I expect him to be mountain-climbingly awesome.

(or really, give me his Mets career numbers and that's what I expect)

3.08 ERA, 210 IP, 140K, 15-9, 33 starts.

[Edgy MD]

16-9 3.11

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

19-15, 3.65. I'm giving him lots of decisions like an old-school knuckler would have.

[Edgy MD]

That''d be really awesome if he piled up 250+ innings.

I just think it's become a really bitter pill to swallow for a manager to let a pitcher take his third trip to he plate.

[MFS62]

15-10 , 3.04
And the first _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ (don't want to jinx it) in team history.

Later

[nymr83]

12-9, 3.55 in 29 starts, he's going to be that guy who they don't score for.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

32 starts, 205 IP, 20 HR allowed, 135/50 K/BB, 12-10 record, 3.51 ERA, 1.25 WHIP

[Guest El Segundo Escupidor]

Will throw a no-no and afterwards dedicate it to the originator of this thread.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think we'll be quite happy with his season.

As for numbers, I'll guess 13-9, 3.60 ERA.

Lengthy and all-over-the-map interview with RA yesterday on
Fatcessa's show. Mike can be annoying on so many levels but
he does do good interviews. If the interview is on WFAN's site,
I highly recommend it.

14-6, 3.67

sometimes anyway. his Dickey interview wasn't bad, except for has randomly breaking into it to update the Yankees score (like anyone that really cares isn't on 880?) and then talking about how if he wasn't talking to Dickey he'd be talking to callers wanting to kill Sabathia.

The rest of it was good though. I enjoyed the part where they discussed how Manuel basically didn't believe in him.

[Edgy MD]

Manuel could be Willie Randolph on moral steroids, the way he believed in that winners-and-losers garbage. You have to go back a long way to find a manager who used the doghouse the way he did. Good for Dickey for always pitching well enough to avoid it. He probably bought Manuel a half season more of employment.

this, more or less, with the W-L record reversed.

He is the king of Yankee shilldom!

Yeah, but the ghosts of MFY Stadium would know, smartass. He's GOT to give them their due.

Also, who calls into a show WHILE a game they're watching is in progress?

People that want to yell? people that tapped into the Seder wine (or Good Friday wine, your pick) a little early?

Not only did he break into the interview to update this when Pena hit the grand slam, he didn't even know who was up. (at least he was paying attention to Dickey) so he had to ask the producer who hit it. The little bit I do listen to his show I get the feeling his ideal show is him watching sports and just sorta BSing about it. Probably was annoyed someone scheduled a Dickey interview during the beginning of the Yankees game.
