  1. That beard is unacceptable!
  2. As long as he doesn't GIDP, we'll have Bay up with a runner in scoring position.
  3. Number 13, first walk, goes to Castillo.
  4. Oops, too late. Resume hating.
  5. Actually, it's Bay as 875 and Barajas as 876.
  6. Good thing he didn't hit 11 last year; the math would be harder.
  7. And number 10 is Castillo.
  8. Also, the answer to number 12 is David Wright.
  9. I'm getting off to a bad start in the Mets Firsts contest. First HBP is Alex Cora; I had Jeff Francoeur. He never had a chance!
  10. And we're underway! And already there are three Marlins retired in the first.
  11. Yeah, I'm not even going to try.
  12. I'm with Olerud.
  13. I suppose it is. It seems, though, that the reason for the rule is so that there's a limit on the number of local Sunday telecasts that ESPN can steal from each team, not because they want a lot of variety on Sunday nights.
  14. Maybe they're saving that number for Bobby Valentine's return. I'm afraid, though, that the Mets have decided to retire number 2 in Derek Jeter's honor.
  15. ESPN is limited to televising each team five times per season on a Sunday night. They didn't want this game to count against their Yankee or Red Sock totals, so they allowed YES and NESN to broadcast it locally.
  16. Seven guys who will likely be making their Mets debut in the next few days. That will bring the Mets all-time player count from 874 to 881.
  17. Completely disinterested. I wasn't even aware, until now, that there was a game that I wasn't watching.
  18. Have the HOF busts been replaced by plaques? And if so, where are the busts? eBay? MeiGray?
  19. This game will mark the beginning of my 40th season as a Mets fan.
  20. I don't get the hate either. Sure, it's lame, but Marty Noble certainly deserves the slack.
  21. Edgy DC wrote: You think Doc Gooden was bad? Not really. I remember him as being pretty good.
  22. Yes, he does it every year. Which doesn't necessarily mean it's not lame. This is probably one tradition that's more than run its course.
  23. I think Mike Pelfrey still has too much potential to give up on him, but he's, at the present time, not as good as we'd like him to be.
  24. I'd like to think that that's what it is.
