  1. -being down 6 runs is more fun (well, less painful) when the Mets are 8-1.
  2. Heath Bell needs to be first
  3. Cabrera is actually playing 3B this year for the fish, we'll see how that goes...
  4. I'd probably throw Julio back out there for the 9th just to save the bullpen for another day.
  5. forget Norfolk Johnny, just cut this guy.
  6. if The Marlins are going to lose them anyway why not keep Wright and sign Willis as a free agent?
  7. I'm always weary about these things, how early do you actually have to get there if you expect to get in?

Paying $2 for tickets last night was alot better with a win, though it was pretty cool no matter what. Talking to Yankee Fans (if you must) is much better when the Mets are 8-1.

Elster88 wrote: I don't believe in this. Will Beltran and Wright all of a sudden stop seeing the ball because they're in a different spot? Perhaps in Willie's World it will.

  12. Elster88 wrote: They gave Anderson a limited chance to play. You're right. Last year would've been better. Maybe if Anderson had hit .167 for two months last year, people wouldn't be crying for him to stay in the lineup. But I doubt it. The hatred for Matsui runs too deep. If the Mets had given Hernandez all of August and September, and he'd fallen on his face, we'd have one less candidate for the job now which is good. Any Matsui-haters could have still said "We want Keppinger" or even "Give us Lambin."
  13. ="Willets Point"]Not that I put much stock in power rankings, but ... "Beating up on the lowly Royals doesn't hide the fact that the Yanks are still a very vulnerable team."
  14. Kaz Matsui hit .255/.300/.352 last year in 267 ABs and played what everyone seemed to agree was not good defense. It's April 15th, Anderson Hernandez is hitting .167/.167/.167 in only 30 ABs and playing what i think is good defense. Give him at least half the ABs you gave Matsui before you pass judgement and start calling for the return of the guy who has already proven, over a sufficient sample size, that he can't hit. If Anderson Hernandez is hitting .250/.300/.350 at the end of May then i would keep starting him, because his defense is superior. If he's well below that then maybe it is time to give the guy who has shown he stinks another shot... but I wouldn't be so quick to do that either, I'd want to give Keppinger a look first.

  16. chanting "M-V-P" at David Wright.
  17. Piazza left on fairly good terms, if not for the arbitration rules theres a good chance he'd have been back too. The Mets don't want to ruin Piazza jersey-retirement day, Piazza in the HOF day, etc. in future years.
  18. Glavine 4.5 Delgado 1.5 Sanchez 1.5 Nady 1 Wagner 1 Reyes .5
  19. i ended up going, the game started about 8:45 but we got in for TWO dollars!
  20. well why wouldnt they? he's been opening his big mouth giving them fodder for 20+ years.
  21. The only thing that is "pathetic" around here is certain people being so pessimistic that they are unable to enjoy the season, which, by the way, is going very well so far.
  22. Anyone have an idea of whether or not they'll get the game in tonight? I was considering going but it's not looking great outside
  23. rooting your guy on is pathetic? booing is pathetic? what form of expression isn't pathetic then? like i said, go watch a tennis game.
