How about flipping Nieuwie and Byrd..

To Josh Satin...Ike makes more money than you..sorry dude...

[Frayed Knot]

Byrd between Ike & Nieuwy keeps the LHBs separated.
As for Ike over Satin, it's not just the money. You don't want to bring Ike back just to sit him so, for a while anyway, I think he'll be in there every day vs RHPs and some days against Lefties.
Eyebrows will get his ABs; at 1B, maybe at 2B or 3B, PH-ing, and maybe in an OF spot.

Apparently Marcum requested Buck, hence the change in lineup (was originally Recker)

Always makes me nervous when i see "Mets Lineup - UPDATED"

[bmfc1]

Shaun Marcum, 1 and 9 with a 5.03 ERA, can request his own catcher? Hey Shawn, F OFF. Who the hell is he to request a catcher? He's lucky to be employed in the major leagues.

[Guest themetfairy]

I'll disagree bmfc1. If it's the difference between Marcum sucking and pitching passably, I think it's a good move to go with his catcher of choice.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Marcum should be choosing between Francisco Pena and Juan Centeno.

[ashie62]

Have seen Gallardo's name in the trade rumor twitterverse of late..He looks really sharp..Throws harder than I realized...

[Zvon]

So Mets down 3-0 in the third. Marcum [crossout:22prkcwm]looks[/crossout:22prkcwm],sounds like he dont have nuthin.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

His gopher ball is working. Lucroy hits one into the second deck for a 4-0 lead.

[ashie62]

They keep throwing Marcum out every fifth day with little success....

[ashie62]

DFA Marcum...

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Imagine how bad he would have been with Recker catching.

[Zvon]

I heard yelling.

[Zvon]

Its official.

[Zvon]

More yelling about Buck. Drives in 2 in the 6th with a single.
Down by a run, 5-4.

[Zvon]

That was a lot of yelling there. A guy scores from 1st on a bunt? Marcum scores a trip to the showers.

Ouch. True.

Would have hands full facing Jordan Shafers each night. Eff him.

[Edgy MD]

Both starters out early.

Muffy is muffing with the he this series but the bat is back.

[Edgy MD]

Ike, be bold and mighty forces will come to your aide.

[Edgy MD]

Or be selective. That's good too.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Let's Go Kirk.

[Guest Kong76]

Time to stretch ....

Milwaukee's radio guy sounds like that dude from Mr. Belvedere.

[Guest Kong76]

Ike flashing the leather tonight

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Logan Shafer. You can Kiss my giant yellow ass.

[Zvon]

Milwaukee's radio guy sounds like that dude from Mr. Belvedere.

I listened to him for less than a minute. He was awful. He's become a caricature of himself. I don't think he cared anything about what he said, just how he said it.

Down 7-5 in the 8th. Comeback time

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Gotta be Jordany's last AB for awhile.

[Edgy MD]

Somebody needs to get Murphed.

[Guest Kong76]

We just got Murphed!
