  1. The thought of Angel Pagan returning doesn't exactly set my heart racing. I'm hoping that his slump expired during the time that he was hurt, but he was providing nothing.
  2. Did anyone else notice, after the game, Chip Hale's microphone picked up someone in the dugout yelling, "Fuck yeah!" ? (And what would be the "correct" way to punctuate the above sentence?)
  3. Dickey 3.75 O'Connor 1 Isringhausen 1 Rodriguez 1 Reyes 0.25 Turner 1.5 Murphy 1.5
  4. I guess I'm shut out, unless Texas at Philadelphia gets rained out and Mets at the Bronx doesn't.
  5. Voting for Wednesday's rainy win over the Nationals in Queens will close sometime over the weekend. Please try to get your votes in today. Schaefer POTG 5/18/11 - Mets 3, Nationals 0 (in the rain)
  6. I'm surprised that, after so many years of interleague play, the Cubs had not yet gone to Boston. The Mets have been everywhere by now. I wonder if the NL Central having more teams is the reason that the Cubs (and presumably the Astros, Reds, etc.) haven't yet visited every American League city.
  7. I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Dickey needs to step it up and set the tone early. If he doesn't (and I fear he won't) it could be a nasty weekend.
  8. Edgy DC wrote: 1. Beltran at DH and Fartinez in right or the opposite? I think the plan is for Martinez to DH the first two games, and Beltran the third.

If he fails to win the 2B job, he can stick with the Mets as Murphy's backup if Castillo is released and Emaus goes back to Toronto, but I don't see it playing out that way. Put me down for 500 plate appearances in Buffalo, 80 with the Mets, mostly in September. Or, if the Mets manage to be buyers around July 31, he could very well be dealt. I started off pretty good, but then tailed off.
  10. Box score Bay 0.5 Byrdak 0.5 Gee 5.5 Rodriguez 1 Turner 2.5
  11. I think we got a break on that out call there.

  13. UGH! The Derek Jeter EDGE commercial!
  14. Runs: Darryl 662, David 662, Jos� 660. Hits: Cleon (in 2nd place) 1,188, David 1,182, Jos� 1,178.
  15. John Cougar Lunchbucket awarded 11 points, and his votes were prorated as follows: niese 2.73 pelfrey 3.63 reyes 0.91 turner 0.91 beltran 0.91 o'connor 0.31 rodriguez 0.3 isringhausen 0.3 The graphic that displays the results tries to show Jon Niese's pitching stats because he's a pitcher. However, the points he earned for this game came because of his pinch-hit triple.
  16. He really sticks to that optimism schtick.
  17. Voting for Monday night's loss to the Marlins will close on Thursday morning. Schaefer POTG 5/16/11 - Marlins 2, Mets 1 (11 Innings)
  18. The Schaefer Mets Player of the Week for the week ending May 14, 2011 is Carlos Beltran with 5.96 points.
