Sounds like pure speculation to me - based solely on him leaving while he still had a no-hitter. Dusty came out to talk to him one batter prior to him being pulled - and then pulled him when he didn't retire that batter. Seems illogical that an injury occured right at that moment. True, hence why sports center anchors (radio and TV) should not spice their reports with commentary

  13. Randy Johnson's personal catcher has been DFA
  14. Willets Point wrote: I think he's saying it becomes notable that the Mets have never had a no-hitter because they traded a guy who eventually had 7, whereas otherwise we might not notice it as much. I think that have great pitchers like Seaver and Gooden pitch superbly for the Mets and the fact that pitchers like Seaver and Gooden only got no-hitters for other teams adds to the mystery and aura. Egg-actly
  15. Yancy Street Gang wrote: Years ago I really wanted that no no-hitter thing to be erased. But when we made it through the second great era of Mets pitchers (after Gooden, Darling, Cone, Fernandez) were all gone, the lack of a no-hitter began to seem more like an interesting quirk than a serious deficiency. The Mets have now defied the odds for almost 45 full seasons. And now, any no-hitter short of a perfect game will seem anti-climactic. Do I really care if Steve Trachsel pitches a no-hitter? Not really. You know, I think the lack of No-hitter for the Mets is more a by product of having the fellow who wound up with more No-Nos than anyone being a Met at the start of his long career. Do Padre fans moan about their franchise never having a no-no?
  16. Got a feeling we may be here a while! Grab a Snickers...
  17. Heh, imagine if Willie Randolph does that to Pedro Friday night? Pedro would treat Willie as if he was the bench coach Randolph replaced on the MFY bench!
  18. That was Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax or Nolan Ryan the manager would have gotten a steely glare and walked right back into the dugout General Dusty, this game is on your head if we come back to win!
  19. Yancy Street Gang wrote: Prior is removed after walking Beltran. (I explained Vanis Takee at the top of the second page of this thread, by the way.) Dusty chooses not to push him in the name of a potential no-hitter. Smart move. No, NOT smart at all. The guy has a no-no going, KEEP HIM IN! Geez the way managers these days coddle arms is riddiculous
  20. I know Dusty has a history of blowing out arms, especially Prior's and Wood's, but taking your guy out in midst of a NO HITTER?

  22. Yancy Street Gang wrote: Real good. He appears to be in command. Just got out of that jam with a groundout. He's held the Cubs scoreless through six. Its like the old Koufax joke "Koufax threw a no-hitter." the repling question "Did the Dodgers win the game?"
  23. Elster88 wrote: ="SteveJRogers"]="Johnny Dickshot"]Does a rather accurate comparison between an IGT and a urinal dishearten anyone else? Considering other boards IGTs usually do laps around us, it is a bit disheartening Eighty posts saying "Home run" each accompanied by three inch avatars are not something to be jealous of. Heh, good point
