Benjamin Grimm wrote: On the UMDB, when the time comes, I'll be referring to the current stadium as "Yankee Stadium II" and the new one as "Yankee Stadium III." It will be a small voice of sanity amid all the misrepresentation. I wonder if I'll get any (or many) complaints about it? Interestingly the Yankees Media Guide do make a distinction between Yankee Stadium I (1923-1973) and Yankee Stadium II (1976-2008) in terms of records, accomplishments, etc. So this is probably more of a media issue than the Yankees PR department. Yes I know the Yankees did have the 75th Anniversary thing and all, but for the most part the Yankees do officially acknowledge that Yankee Stadium is two seperate buildings.

I guess I'd be carefull around my legs for the next several posts!

TransMonk wrote: They don't look very impressive to me. Why are the Braves the designer pick to win it all this year? They look like the same team they were last year, only their defense is worse. Glavine's influence on the young hurlers, a full year of Teixiera, probably some of the trend is based on a feeling Mets and Phillies will kill each other for the division, leaving the "experience" in Atlanta to rise to the top.

Need to get a job in sports journalism so I can write it off as a work expense!

Farmer Ted wrote: Not sure which talking head said it before the game so I'll paraphrase... "You're going to win 60 games, you're going to lose 60 games. It's what you do with the other 42 that makes the season special." Who writes this shit? HA! I've heard that cliche often through the years. It ranks right up there with "You got to take it one game at a time," "Baseball is a marathon, not a sprint," and "Pennants are not won in April."

Santana is running away with both the Player and Pitcher of The Month award! Okay that was bad...

Like Augie as a Twin, Mo Vaughn is to be inducted into his prominent team's Hall of Fame, this November he will be inducted into the Red Sox Hall of Fame.[/url:1ak60g7d] -
John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Little too cutesey with relief pitching in the 8th there. If we hadn't tacked on one in the top of the 9th I'm sure they'd have trotted out Wagner in the 9th. Great job by Soso, no doubt, but that inning lurched closer to disaster than a walk/seeing eye single might have warranted. Enough already with the poor decisions on the basepaths. Wright was caught stealing 3rd with plenty of room to spare. Shoulda scored in a few other innings than one -- that was a frequent complaint of mine last year. Otherwise, pretty satisfying win -- just wanted to establish a place for after-the-fact nitpicking. Good points. While not looking like the zombies that they were for most of last summer, this game does have some of the same attributes that many 2007 wins did. Scoring the runs in one fell swoop despite a much more inferior team, and lack of defined roles causing the pen to be mismanged. Great win, but some things that I hope aren't trends again.

Time to take out the books and put this game in it!

Rockin' Doc wrote: Unfortunately, no Mets viewing in my area today. I'm getting the Giants at Dodger Stadium for my baseball fix. The Dodgers closed it out for a 5-0 win. 50th Anniversary of MLB in California. Fun thinking about both franchise's trajectories since leaving New York, though their trajectories were criss-crossing a little more than a decade earlier, probably once Branch Rickey and Leo Durocher were brought in during the early 40s is when the Dodgers turned that corner. Hard to tell when the Giants went from the premier franchise to an also ran though.

Heilman coming in to get the final three.

Not a "Wise" decision! (dodges rotten tomatos and the kitchen sink)

="metsguyinmichigan"]Hi guys. Just getting here -- an out of the office assignment on Opening Day! Grrr. But I see things are proceeding according to plan. It is as I have forseen it!

Phillie pen taking a pounding right now in DC. 10-6 Nats in the 9th. In other NL East action, the Braves host the Pirates this evening.

Well thanks to UltimateMets.com I can quickly say that Santana is now the 223 different Met starting pitcher during the 7,321 game no no-hitter streak!

soupcan wrote: And the '84 version blows chunks anyway. Hence why it's been removed from inside the ballpark, but for reasons known only to them, the PA system outside Shea still plays this. The instrumental intro is still used to close out the Mets Extra postgame show on WFAN radio as well, but for all intents and purposes the original has been back in use for quite sometime now.
