  1. Ceetar awarded 10.5 points, and his votes were prorated as follows: dickey 4.76 francisco 0.48 murphy 1.43 thole 0.95 torres 0.95 turner 0.48 tejada 0.95
  2. The 0.02 total points awarded to Ike Davis rounded down to zero, so he does not appear in the results.
  3. Acosta 0.75 Batista 1 Byrdak 0.5 Duda 1.5 Murphy 0.5 Nieuwenhuis 1.75 Ramirez 1 Rauch 0.5 Torres 1.5 Wright 1
  4. He also projects to have another four or five broken pinkies between now and the end of the season.
  5. I know that this is completely arbitrary, but I remember thinking last month that I'd allow myself to start getting excited about the Mets playoff chances this year if they had a .550 or better winning percentage on May 15. I just did the math. Assuming no rainouts in the next week or so, to clinch .550 by May 15 the Mets will have to win three of their next six games. Sounds pretty doable to me.
  6. I think they should activate Ron Hodges.
  7. I pick Carrasco. Which testicle would that be?
  8. Voting for all three games from the weekend series against the Diamondbacks will close on Wednesday morning. Schaefer POTG 5/4/12 - Diamondbacks 5, Mets 4 Schaefer POTG 05/05/2012 Mets 4, Arizona 3 Schaefer POTG 05/06/2012 Mets 3, Arizona 1
  9. This looks like one of those games that's destined for the loss column. So if they can pull out a win tonight it will be extra sweet.
  10. Acosta 1 Byrdak 0.5 Francisco 0.5 Niese 1 Parnell 1.25 Valdespin 3.75 Wright 2
  11. The Happy Homerer I love the way he hit the ball, Beyond the warning track, And as he ran, I heard him sing, With a numeral on his back. Chorus: Val-despin,Val-despin, Val-despin, Val-despin-spin-spin-spin-spin-spin Val-despin,Val-despin. A numeral on his back.
  12. Doesn't he know that dogs are supposed to be strapped to the roof of the car? Get with the Romney program, or get out of America! That's what I say!
  13. CBS local website wrote: A team source told the New York Post that Tejada�s MRI results were �not good,� and though not certain, a trip to the disabled list was �very likely.� The 22-year-old was injured while beating out a bunt single in the bottom of the fourth inning, which resulted in a nasty spill over the bag at first. �The final decision won�t be made until he�s evaluated,� a source told the paper. �Tejada still thinks he can play in a few days.� Justin Turner replaced Tejada at shortstop, and Mets manager Terry Collins said the infielder could fill in for a time at the position. The Mets planned to bring an extra player to Philadelphia on Monday as insurance in case Tejada needs to go on the DL. �If they think it�s going to be five, six days, we�ll probably have to make some move,� said Collins. Tejada is batting .305 with 10 doubles and eight RBIs in his first year as a full-time starter. http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/05/07/report-mri-on-mets-tejada-not-good-dl-stint-very-likely/
  14. We react to his departure in this thread.
  15. Terry says he hopes to have Young in the Mets rotation by the end of May. (See the Pel Free thread.)
  16. Especially since he's been hitting like a pitcher.
  17. I rated it an 8.
  18. I would do that. There are days off scattered in May which would allow the fifth spot to be skipped a couple of times. I think Johan can pitch on four days rest. If you can skip the "Batista spot" once or twice, why not?
  19. Omar Quintanilla?
  20. Terry saying (in the Daily News this morning) that the goal is to have Chris Young join the Mets rotation by the end of May. If that comes to pass, then that means maybe two or three more starts for what is currently the Batista spot in the rotation.
  21. 2004-06-11 Jae Seo vs. Darrell May 2011-08-22 Dillon Gee vs. Cliff Lee
  22. I think we've played this game before... Let me see what I can come up with...
