  1. Next time an owner flies in after a five-game winning streak, it will take on a new and more positive meaning. Actually, it won't get reported!
  2. glad to get a win, got to see it at the bar (poker game sucked oh well) Mets back on track?
  3. I think RF is the only spot the Mets could really be expected to upgrade offensively in-season. 2B could probably be upgraded defensively via trade.
  4. $1 Upper Reserved Monday really? damn i wish i'd known that sooner. i'm off to a poker tournament in jersey so i'll miss most of tonight's game unless theyhave it on there. lets stop sucking!

    Really?

  7. Why would you want this guy in the bullpen? Why would you want him on your team? I don't want him in the pen, but I don't want him thinking that refusing an assignment to try and work out his problems will get him either a) a release with all the money owed to him for doing nothing or a continued meaningful role on the mets. bury him in the back of the pen, so deep that only in extra innings with everyone else gone would we use him. when he doesnt play for 3 weeks, see how he feels about Buffalo. I wonder how big he and his agent think his next contract will be if he barely pitches again for the Mets? oh and is there anything in his contract (or the CBA) against running suicides? make him run lots of suicides.
  8. He probably came to the majors before he was ready, he was one of the worst every day players in the league for 2 years.
  9. The problem I find with action sequels is that they amp up the action beyond the level of coherence, replacing the story elements of the initial installment with adrenaline, empty calories, and multiple villians teaming up for extra marquee power. SpiderMan 3!
  10. Maybe we could replace him with Gary Matthews jr. ::ducks::

It is very painful, "especially for an athlete". There is no harm to the bone itself. It can heal "relatively quickly". The fact that his recovery has taken so long is still a head-scratcher to me. But now that he's running, I'm optimistic that he can return, and be productive, this year. Later i've had bone bruises on two fingers at different times. -they werent really too painful, i'm not sure how exactly to explain levels of pain, but if i say i didnt take any pain relievers hopefully that will get the point across -both felt fine and were fully functional in under a month -this may have nothig to do with bone bruises on other parts of the body
  12. Even Kenny Rogers, who is despised by many New York fans, won 219 games we still hate you Kenny. Even the Yankee fans don't like you!
  13. June 3rd, an offday after a quick 6 game trip

  15. The cops need to be able to stop anyone with a Maple Leafs cap or a LaBatts t-shirt Those people should get stopped anyway.
  16. the argument is the same. they have no power and therefore should not be the target of politically motivated boycotts. i admit i've conflated MLB and the d-backs here, but i think they're the same for purposes of this discussion. you can assume i said "mlb and the dbacks" wherever i mentioned either one.
  17. how am i misreading you? you are saying people are challenging MLB to do what the people think is right and i am saying that MLB has no ability to do so. what am i missing?
  18. People have challenged their sports teams to do what they think is right, How can the DBacks "do whats right" here? They didn't pass the allegedly bad law and they neither enforce it nor have the power to repeal it. if MLB was checking green cards at the turnstiles then you'd have a reason to boycott
  19. great win. welcome aboard, Carter! another flip over the railing by Ike! the only "downside" for me is that Nieve was warming up in the 8th, presumably to come in if the Mets blew the doors open. Can we please rest this guy? If the game was out of hand enough where Rodriguez wasn't coming in despite warming up already, use Acosta.
  20. why cant you "un-politicize" it? there is nothing about the Diamondbacks, MLB, or the all-star game that is inherently involved with the Arizona immigration enforcement. Val's boss chose to try and connect the two, thus "politicizing" baseball where it was not previously. His (val's or menendez's, either one) being entitled to an opinion doesnt really have any bearing on that.

  22. its a hell of an improvement over the 1B corps we started the season with. and yeah, i think GMJ's job is safe at least until Beltran makes it back
  23. i urge a boycott of your boss for attempting to politicize baseball
  24. catalanotto DFA'd...so says jerry in the post game!
