  2. That should be 663, 662, and 662.
  3. I don't see where Sandy says that the $100 million figure is untrue (which is what I was hoping to see) just that we shouldn't overreact to it. All I can say is, if the Wilpons can't afford to run a large-market team like a large-market team, they need to step aside. The sooner the better.
  4. Reyes 0.5 Tejada 0.5
  5. Voting for all three games played in the Bronx this past weekend will close on Wednesday morning. If you have votes that you'd like to cast, please get them in today. Schaefer POTG 5/20/11 - Mets 2, MFY's 1 Schaefer POTG 5/21/11 - MFY's 7, Mets 3 Schaefer POTG, 05/22 2011: MFYs 9 Mets 3
  6. Voting for Thursday afternoon's win over the Nationals will close on Tuesday morning. Schaefer POTG 05/19/2011 Mets 1, Washington 0
  7. I may roll my eyes at him sometimes, and I don't want him to manage the Mets, but I'll always have good feelings about Gary Carter. 1985 and 1986 were awesome, and Gary Carter was a big part of that awesomeness.
  8. Bay 0.75 Harris 2 Martinez 0.75 Pelfrey 0.75 Pridie 1
  9. Derek Jeter: You know he has an edge!
  10. I too am hoping all goes well. I wonder if this is anything like what Mary Tyler Moore just had?
  11. Bay 0.5 Beato 1.25 Murphy 1.5 Reyes 2.5 Turner 0.5
  12. I don't hate Jason Bay (he seems like a decent guy) but I hate that the Mets are stuck with him. In the past, the Mets have shown that they're willing to eat a bad contract, but they always wait until the final season of that contract. (Oliver Perez, Luis Castillo, Kaz Matsui, and George Foster are the ones that come immediately to mind.) If that pattern, such as it is, holds, the Mets will continue to carry Bay for another year and a half. I understand that they want to give him a chance to play his way out of this "slump" (although I'd say it's much more than that) and while I suppose there's hope that he will, it's looking more and more unlikely. What to do? Nobody is going to trade for him. Would he do a Steve Trachsel and spend three or four weeks in Buffalo? Would that even do any good? (For Bay, that is. It would be good in that it would give Fernando Martinez a chance to show his stuff in the big leagues.) Or do the Mets keep him around as an expensive, and non-threatening, right-handed pinch hitter? He can probably do everything that Scott Hairston can do.
  13. Well, we now have that three-way tie for runs: Darryl 662, David 662, Jose 662.
  14. Working too hard can give you a heart attack.

  16. And then... be sure to wash your hands.
  17. I've never seen the Got Rings shirt. I'd be tempted to approach the guy and say, yes, you've got rings.... ring around the collar! And then everyone else in the gym would start chanting "Ring around the collar! Ring around the collar!"
