  1. Any team going after Robert is doing it on name only. They hope they have the magic talisman to revive the corpse back to prior life. Right now he’s a little more useful than a third nostril, not earning his salary. Taylor is a cheaper, probably more dependable player. I’d keep him around. later
  2. Interesting that veterans with a track record have declined so much. I would expect the veterans climb back to their norms by the end of the season. But some don't seem to be improving. If they aren't, what could it be? Are they being forced to confirm to a different batting approach by the coach? I would think a veteran would stay with what has served him well in the past and ignore that approach. No? If not that, the reason eludes me. Anyone who knows, and can fix, the problem, please go to CitiField and pick up your check. Later
  3. No, they trade him. And part of the return should be a giant bottle of antacid for all the agita he’s given the fans. He’s like nitro. We never know when he’ll go off. Not if. When. later
  4. SNY reporting that Senga is starting the game. Later
  5. My wife(who isn't a big sports fan) watches the news. And when she sees the Mets got a player, she'll ask, "Is he good?". I like to be able to say "He's better than what we have". That's all I'm looking for in any deal. And looking at some of Stearns' acquisitions, I'm not sure that will happen. Later
  6. If they wrap him in bubble wrap to make sure he doesn't get hurt, how will he pack his bags? Later
  7. Why? We already know the answers. 😛 Later
  8. I wouldn't accept less, based on his "name value" alone. Later
  9. As Stengel said about Greg Goosen, "In ten years he has a chance to be 29". Later
  10. Carter( see above). later
  11. Having one Agbayani is better than having none. Let’s see how well they develop these prospects. later
  12. For# 7, someone wearing his name on both the front and back of his uniform had to be a spectacularly conceited mo-fo. So I immediately thought of Gary Carter. But he wasn’t a backup. So I’m still stumped. later
  13. The title of this thread reminded me of a Don Imus parody of the frank Purdue ads. Don said, “ it takes a tough man to make a tender chicken… and a lonely one”. later
  14. In the thread of the first game in the series, someone noted that the Mets should have saved some of the runs for later use. He was right. later
  15. As we move on to game 2, Scott was announced and he'd better be Great. Later
  16. T'aint that easy. I'd rather try to catch a knuckleball. Later
  17. Sweet! I was on the phone with a customer in Georgia, but I couldn't rub it in. I saw the video of Benge's double. It went off the wall in the corner. Only one run scored? What was the third base coach doing,. Checking the outfield for squirrels? Later
  18. Now that Chipper (Ptui!) has retired and FFF is no longer there, Olson is quickly rising to the top of the list of Braves I really dislike. Later
  19. Monday, Monday, so good to me Monday mornin', it was all I hoped it would be Oh Monday mornin', Monday mornin' couldn't guarantee That Monday evenin' you would still be here with me Monday, Monday, can't trust that day Monday, Monday, sometimes it just turns out that way Oh Monday mornin' you gave me no warnin' of what was to be Oh Monday, Monday, how could you leave and not take me Later
  20. While Luis Torrens has pitched several games for the Mets, I don't think he earned a win. But I think they mentioned when he came in to pitch for the Mets that he got one prior to joining the Mets. Does that count? The wording of the question was kind of nonspecific. Later
  21. Ya got me. There must have been a lot of Italian American catchers on the Mets since Yogi. Chiti and Chris Cannizzaro not named Piazza. But LoDuca was the only backup who came to mind. They don't haze rookies anymore? What is this world coming to? (I'm getting old) Later
  22. #10 - Paul LoDuca? Later
  23. He was my dark horse pick for this year. He's finally getting the recognition he deserves. He's been a rock, the Swiss Army Knife of the staff. You'd have to wrench him from my cold dead fingers. Later
  24. good decision Does the Tuesday night crew reconvene for rainout makeups? Later
