Thanks, Later

Coming to Danbury, Ct. Don't know if I can make it, but it sounds interesting: http://www.newstimes.com/search/ci_12863205?IADID=Search-www.newstimes.com-www.newstimes.com Later

Bingy didn't get rained out - just delayed. They're down 0-3 in the first. Later

When batters are looking at those Polo Grounds type dimensions down the line, it must be tough for them to listen to a coach who is telling them to "just hit the ball up the middle". There were some fun games played there. Later

Escobar is a real pain in the ERA. Later

The Buffalo game got rained out. So did Binghamton. Later

He's scheduled to pitch tonight. Later

Trading Schneider is an interesting situation. For this year, you would like to get a catcher in return. But that catcher (unless on an expiring contract like Schneider) might stand in the way of catching prospect Josh Thole by next year. 'Tis a puzzlement. When do you sell? When you have a buyer who will give fair return. Later

You're dwelling on my setup line and overlooking the punch line. Later

Its the under-estimated recovery times that get to me. They've been using the Doctors at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City. Maybe they should try the Doctors at the Hospital for Usual Surgery. Later

="themetfairy":vrsyg5q9] Josh Thole was electe to the team but didn't attend the game (is he injured?).[/quote:vrsyg5q9] He dislocated his thumb about two weeks ago, and was put on the 7 day DL. I had hoped to have seen him play at New Britain last Sunday, but he was still out. Bummer! I really wanted to see him play. Later themetfairy Jul 16 2009 12:48 PM Thanks bmfc. And thanks for the update 62. ="Centerfield"]Were you able to catch who sponsored the scoreboard? I couldn't quite tell from the pictures... Yeah - it's very subtle. You know, the Yankees way.... BTW, here is a picture of Top Star Award winner Miguel Abreu. I like how one can read the award name on the bat in this photo -

I agree with Edgy - let's see what Parnell can do as a starter. Also Halliday, Holliday, Shmaliday, Shmoliday, Joel Sherman put his two cents in intimating Minata hasn't been trying: http://www.nypost.com/seven/07162009/sports/mets/holliday_slumber_shows_omars_failures_179579.htm?&page=0 Later

="Edgy DC":1vabyzts]I ask this every year. Are these guys being rated on different scales or against a universal mean?[/quote:1vabyzts] My rating scale is based on how the player performed against the expectations I had for that player coming into this season. I also rated based on how well they performed while they played. I didn't hold injuries against them because, well, shit happens. A = far exceeded my expectaions B = exceeded expectations C = met expectations D = did not meet expectations F = did not meet expectations by a wide margin. INC = not enough to judge Santos A Schneider D Murphy D Delgado B Tatis D Castillo B Cora B (maybe even an A) J.Reyes D Wright D Sheffield B Evans INC Beltran C Church C F. Martinez INC J.Reed C Santana B Pelfrey C Maine C O.Perez F (only because I didn't expand my rating scale any lower) L. Hernandez C Nieve A Putz D Stokes C S.Green B Feliciano B F.Rodriguez B Redding D J. Manuel C Minaya D Citifield INC - haven't been there yet. Later

Ted Williams: There Goes the Greatest Hitter That Ever Lived
MFS62 replied to metirish's topic in New York Mets Talk
Teddy Fuckin' Ballgame. It was a treat to watch him hit. And for someone learning the game, it was a clinic. I might tune in to see part of the show. Later -
The Onion--"Derek Jeter Makes Easy Play Look Easy"
MFS62 replied to bmfc1's topic in New York Mets Talk
The truest things are sometimes said in jest. This article is a great example. Later -
Joe has constantly proven that while Jack Buck is in the Hall of Fame, the only way Joe will make it would be if he buys a ticket. Later

="Benjamin Grimm":243edh3r]Thanks for trying, but it's just as well. The credit for the uniform number info should rightly go to MBTN.[/quote:243edh3r] I got the impression that the host wouldn't have known the difference. If I got on air, my mind would have kicked in and I would have probably plugged both of them. Later
-
I was listening to one of the sports talk radio shows the other day after the trade. The host was listing the players who had worn #12 with the Mets. He said he saw it on a website, but "couldn't read the name of it". I couldn't get through to give the UMDB its props. Later

I'm a National League purist. I'd rather watch pitchers bunt. Later

I saw Ruckle pitch yesterday for Bingy against New Britain. He doesn't throw hard - mostly 84 on the stadium gun with one pitch at 87. His off speed pitch was consistently at 74. He tries to get batters out with a herky-jerky motion. He reminded me of ex-Senator pitcher Marty Kutyna. (Probably too far back for most folks to remember) Later

The lefty hitting first baseman was drafted last year by the Mets. He was slow to adapt to wood bats, and didn't show the power last yearthat the Mets had expected. This year, he hit seven homers at A ball and was promoted to Binghamton, where he has hit three more. I saw Davis play yesterday in the Binghamton, New Britain game. He got three hits, put the ball in play to get a runner home from third (Which puts him ahead of anyone now on the Mets roster), and made some really nice plays at first. Welcome to the family, kid.
