i think a better analogy would be "i left Glavine up at the plate to bat as the tying run in the 8th inning, why'd i do it? well, he's no rey ordonez..."
-
bringing Smith in to face Burrell (after walking Howard) seems silly to me, but its alot more defensible than what Willie actually did.
-
The move was DUMB the fact that it was April doesn't change the dumbness of the move because these games count just as much as a game played in September. I'd go so far as to say that this was the dumbest decision (in terms of leaving a pitcher in vs. taking him out) i've ever seen and that includes leaving in pedro when he melted down against the yankees inthe ALCS, at least he was their ace. Willie had 2 choices (feliciano vs. howard, burgos vs. burrell) that were infinitely superior to what he chose to do. there's no 20/20 hinsight here either, i complained BEFORE the HR.

i'm really not sure where people found 3 points for John Maine, unless they didnt watch the game, just looked at the box score, and didn't see that he left the game with the bases loaded. edit- it should be pointed out that only one voter gave Maine 3, everyone else gave him 1 or less, so i think we can chalk that up to a crazy outlier unless the voter cares to defend it. i'm not sure where Wright gets 2.5 either, i suppose his was the biggest hit in the inning since everyone else seemed to get it done with bloopers, errors, and sac flies, i still wouldnt give him that much because the Mets already led 7-5 when he stepped to the plate, but its alot more defensible than Maine getting a 3 when nobody else topped 1.

="TheOldMole"]Reyes running out the popup to the mound and making second when it was dropped...that's what you wanna see. no, thats what you expect to see, i don't give points for doing what every player should do (hustling) rather i take away points from anyone i see dogging it.

who thought Carl Pavano would be the first Yankee starter to turn in a quality performance this year?

ESPN's game summary puts it well: ]• Goat: Rollins said before the season that the Phillies were the team to beat in the NL East, but his error and a double-play grounder he hit into with the bases loaded earlier in the game helped the Mets win.
-
nonsense. Jimmy Rollins is clearly the MVP. he leads the league in "game losing errors" and "patrick-ewing-like false gaurantees"
-
no beer for Maine today (4/9). 4 2/3 just doesnt cut it for a starter. i don't care that he only allowed 2 runs, he walked SIX (on top of 5 hits) and left thegame with the bases loaded, only to be bailed out by burgos. finish that inning yourself and you'll get a couple of points, fail to even pitch 5 and leave in big trouble and i can't give you anything. burgos would have gotten a full point out of me if he'd just nailed down that out and gotten through the next inning because that out was big, but by giving up a 3-run shot he took away whatever he had earned

(And very little of it will go to pitchers, I think.)Maine couldn't even go 5 and he walked the ballpark, willie's strategy can't be blamed on Burgos but i still can't give the guy points. smith and feliciano should probably get something, whoever comes in next gets nothing for pitching with a 6 run lead
-
i think that Rollins prediction getting spanked! potentially 4 behind the mets, 4.5 behind the braves, and 2 behind the marlins at the end of play today.
-
baaaasehit, 2 run single for Alou! Chavez, who came on as a pinch-runner, will bat!
-
