Schaefer 2012

[Edgy MD]

I would encourage any voters for last night's game to consider deeply Hairston's throw and Thole's putout.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Voting for the first two games played against the Phillies will close some time over the weekend. Since this notice is coming a little late on Friday morning, I'll promise not to close the voting threads until Sunday morning at the earliest. Both games look like they can use a few more votes.

Schaefer POTG, 7/3/2012: Mets 11 Phillies 1
Schaefer POTG 7/4/12 - Phillies 9, Mets 2

[Benjamin Grimm]

Voting for Thursday night's walkoff win over the Phillies will close on Tuesday morning.

And don't forget to vote for the games against the Cubs! I'll post the official reminder tomorrow, but these games are very low on votes right now.

Schaefer POTG 7/5/12 - Mets 6, Phillies 5

[metsmarathon]

i hope to be back on the voting bandwagon after the break. i just too k a week off work to work aroundhte house, and have a few big things happening now the next week or so. stupid work getting in the way of fun internet things.

[Benjamin Grimm]

These games are kind of past due. I seem to be suffering from a mid-season malaise. With the long All Star break I've almost forgotten that it's still baseball season.

Anyway, the three games played against the Cubs last weekend will close some time over the weekend. These games are very undervoted; two of them only have five votes and the other has six. If anyone else cares to chime in, please try to do so today.

Schaefer POTG 7/6/12 - Cubs 8, Mets 7
Schaefer POTG, 7/7/2012: Mets 3 Cubs 1
Schaefer POTG 07/08/2012 Chicago 7, Mets 0

[Benjamin Grimm]

Looks like I've fallen a little behind on these...

Schaefer POTG, 07/18/12 Washington 4, Mets 3

[Guest themetfairy]

How should we handle the two Ramirezes in the bullpen?

[Benjamin Grimm]

RRamirez or ERamirez.

[Guest themetfairy]

Sounds good.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Voting for last Thursday's win (win? they do that???) over Washington will close on Tuesday morning.

Schaefer POTG 7/19/12 - Mets 9, Nationals 5

[Benjamin Grimm]

I can see from the lower and lower vote counts that, understandably, the Mets miserable performance since the All-Star break has most of us weary of Schaefer voting, but I'm going to continue this through the end of the season anyway.

The three games played against the Dodgers over the weekend will close on Wednesday morning.

Schaefer POTG 7/20/12 - Dodgers 7, Mets 6
Schaefer POTG, 7/21/2012: Dodgers 8 Mets 5

[Benjamin Grimm]

Voting for Wednesday night's loss to the Nationals, hopefully the last game the Mets will lose this season, will close some time over the weekend, perhaps as early as Saturday morning.

Only three votes for this game so far! (Thanks to metfairy and G-Fafif for hanging in there!)

Schaefer POTG 7/26/12 - Diamondbacks 1, Mets 3

[Benjamin Grimm]

Voter participation seems to be on a bit of an upswing lately. Nice to see... my thanks to all those who participate.

We're going to break the pattern a bit for a while. My flight to South Africa leaves tomorrow morning. I expect to have Internet access at least through Monday of next week while I'm in Cape Town. I plan to get all of July tallied when I have some down time. (I'm usually the first in my family to wake up, so I may do some Internetting while in a dark and silent hotel room.)

Please try to have all July games (the ones listed below plus the yet-to-be-played July 31 game) voted by Saturday of this week. I'll tally the votes on Sunday or at my first chance thereafter. I probably won't be posting any more reminders. I'll let myself fall behind on all games played in August and get caught up when I return to the U.S.A. on August 20. Despite the lack of my customary reminders, please keep starting the threads and casting your votes. During the last few years the Mets have nose-dived during my summer vacations. Maybe, now that they've already had an awful stretch, this year things will be different and I'll come back to find the Mets in the heart of a wild-card race. Let's hope so, anyway. Thank you, and Let's go Mets!

[Edgy MD]

Sorry. I really turded out during the losing streak. Disenchantment certainly, but my life also got complicated.

[Guest themetfairy]

Ashie - you need to specify which Ramirez gets Schaefer for the 8/5 game (it's obvious now, but it will be less obvious to BG when he gets back from his vacation).

Thanks

Ashie - we both made the same mistake in the 8/8 voting; I just fixed my vote.

[Guest themetfairy]

Lefty Specialist said this in the 8/8 thread -

In a 13-0 loss, shouldn't everyone be a zero, up to and including the parking lot attendants and batboys?

I don't necessarily disagree, and considered doing it myself (G-Fafif witnessed me saying "No Schaefer for Anyone Tonight!"). But ultimately I decided to give a few sips of beer to the two bullpen guys who didn't stink up the joint.

But a dry post-game clubhouse would also be fine with me.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Well, I'm back home from South Africa (it was a great vacation, but I'm really happy to be in the USA again) and it's time to start catching up on the Schaefer stuff. The voting for the six games listed below will close on Wednesday morning. And more to come. If my lack of regular reminders has caused you to lapse in your voting, now is the time to get caught up.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Ike's PoTW score is the highest all year for a non-pitcher.

OE. Unless the runner-up in the week of Dickey's 10+ score topped Ike.
