I finished up watching the '91 game during tonight's rain delay. Guests were Smoltz and Morris which were of course perfect. I was impressed by their insightful commentary, particularly in light of Costas (and Verducci's) open invitations for them to be overly self-congratulatory. Haven't watched the game Game 6 one yet (saving it). It was noted at the end of the show that Jack Morris was one of only six players in major league history to be on the world series winning team with 3 different clubs. I could guess two others but the remaining three were total mysteries to me. Then I looked it up and saw that each of those remaining three players were all on the '13 Athletics and '18 Red Sox and that explained why I didn't know the answer...

Tied for 5th place with 7. Galarraga has given up 11.
-
It's raining in Minnesota and not an official game yet so he might get another shot.
-
Davis coming out of the game. Not good.
-
Johnson gave up his only run on a solo shot by Howard early; Halladay gave up an early run as well and the game remained tied until the bottom of the 8th when a Rollins throwing error plus Halladay wild pitch set up that second Marlins run.
-
Wow. Pelf making up for the homers there.

FUCK

Anytime someone wants to put one in Tulowitzki's ribs, they can just go right ahead and do that. Anytime now.

On 3 pitches, no less.
-
I'll take it. 2-0.
-
Bold prediction: we break the grand slam drought/streak here.

I find Davidoff's logic strange re: Rodriguez. If a team intends to use Rodriguez as a set-up man, I would think his value (in terms of prospects to receive in return) would be larger, as there is no onerous contract to kick in. If Rodriguez is traded to a team looking for a closer, then the financial obligation to the acquiring team is presumably larger (due to the games finished clause) and therefore they would be willing to give up less to the Mets in return.

Twitter has a block function. If you don't like what people are saying, you block them so they don't show up. Simple. Why Josh didn't figure this out, I don't know. I know this and I'm not even a twitter user.

Hey! Remember those things called base hits? How 'bout some of those? Thanks. -

You can't see him signing a seven year deal with the Mets at $120 million, in which Reyes performs for three years at his 06/07/08/11 level (he'll be age 29-31), followed by two years of above-average (but not superstar) performance (age 32-33) followed by two years of slightly above average to replacement-level performance (age 34-35)? 'Cause that's what I see.

Pudge has 2829 hits; 2735 were as a catcher. 66 as DH, 8 as 1B and 20 as PH. Piazza has 427 homers; 396 as a catcher.

Of course a secret deal is illegal. There is nothing stopping Alderson from sitting down with Reyes and his agent and explaining that obviously, the team is not going to compete for the playoffs this year and accordingly, the team is considering trading Reyes in order to get some additional prospects back, and that the Mets want to be competitive bidders for Reyes' services once he reaches free agency, and that leveraging Reyes' contract status for some additional players will only result in Jose coming back to a stronger team. That being said, Alderson's first responsibility is to exhaust all possible efforts to sign Reyes to a contract extension NOW.
-
Per Rubin, MRI of Young's shoulder is not encouraging. I still say it was a good signing. Low-cost, high-upside. At least we got a couple good starts out of him.

Same in my area of the park today. Nobody cares. I get that you're not going to cheer after every second strike but when we're trying to put together a rally in the seventh, make some freaking noise already. I was disappointed in hitting Hu in the 7th (instead of Beltran) and frankly I want him DFAed as soon as possible. I realize that Beltran did eventually get up to bat but still, I saw the seventh as a much better use of him than waiting for the potential at-bat later in the game.
