Last Friday, M&MD were talking about the Mets. They were surprisingly taking a realistic look at the players on the team. When the topic of Looper came up, Mike said "he's having a pretty good year. He's 15 for 18 in save situations, which is all right."No wonder Looper lost. He got the kiss of death.Later

Mole, you had a thing for Gary Sheffield too?Later

]I don't know what the 40-man roster move is that was made in order to activate Jose Offerman, but it's almost certainly a transition of Bartolome Fortunato or Felix Heredia, surgery victims both, from the 15-day to the 40-day disabled list. I thought I once read thatthere is a limit to the number of players you can have on the 60 day DL at any one time. If so, what is that limit?Later

You know who must be cursing his luck? Craig Brazell.Here was a chance for him to come up to the majors and play for a while to finally show what he can/ can't do.So, naturally, he's on the Norfolk DL with a broken hand.Later

I don't know who it is , but I can tell you what they did.I tunewd in late to hear a radio interview on WFAN yesterday. A Yankee beat reporter was being interviewed about Friday night's game.He said that during the post game Yank manager group interview, another reporter asked Torre why he didn't have Sierra or someone else hit for Cano in the ninth inning. Torre gave his usual "I'm not going to answer that" kind of response and the press conference went on.After it was over, someone pulled aside the reporter who had asked that question, and told him 'You don't ask questions like that".The MFY is the guy from the "Ministry of Truth"who gave the order to try to stifle valid questions. My guess that came from the highest of levels.If Torre's job really is in trouble, then they would have wanted questions like that asked, so as his tactical skills are in question.If he is secure, they want to stiffle questions like that, to show that the Boss has confidence in a "perfect" manager.Later

Sheesh. I thought in-laws were bad enough. What's a "quasi in-law"?Outlaws?Later

To AAA.See bottom of article:http://www.pressconnects.com/today/sports/stories/sp062405s174483.shtmlAnd I have adopted him.I guess it was a little early to have sent him to Brooklyn for the playoffs.Later

http://www.pressconnects.com/today/sports/stories/sp062405s174483.shtmlSee the notes at the bottom of the article.We got him in the Vance Wilson trade, as a "good field- no hit" shortstop.Well, he seems to have learned to hit, and is now playing some second base, too. He may "Wally Pipp" Jeff Keppinger at Norfolk. (Or Kaz Matsui with the big club).Andy, I'll send you directions to my house.Later

It was good to be Lee there today. Carlos hit his 20th dinger in the same game.Later

Didn't he have two translators last year?Now he only has one (MLB rule?)Maybe that's the reason?Later

I can hardly wait for the new ballpark in Flushing to be named "Joe's Chop Shop" Staduim. At least it would be a local company.LAter

Please, please don't make a winner out of that Met Killer Rheal Cormier.Later -
Check out the Old Post Office Tower.Its a few blocks away from the main plaza and if they'll b eopen that night (not sure what time they close) you'll get a great view of the fireworks from there.Its now a tourist attraction with an upscale food court on the street level.Its walking distance from the Air and Space Museum, on th eother side of the green.Later

WP, if you can make it, go.It sounds like fun.For self defense you can bring your toaster and a power pack.Later

Edgy DC wrote:For a starting pitcher, ERA is still the bottom line. Peripherals tell you a lot about who can dominate and appears to be the better bet long-term, but not really who has performed better thus far.Edgy, I was just going to post a similar comment. Peripherals (especially WHIP) are really an indication of ability rather than a measure of performance.

Rats!When I saw Mom's post about the remaining ticket I was going to go home and ask MMYF if we had anything planned that weekend. Before I could ask, she told me that a relative is moving to Texas and wold be coming up that weekend to say good-by. (Unfortunately, the relative is on my side of the family)Maybe next time. I would have loved to have put some faces to the names. Later

]Thus, a change was made to a Latin American charmer that led to the Mets getting Pedro Martinez, who led to Carlos Beltran. The heck with stats. How does he prove that one?Was Victor the deciding factor , or any factor for that matter, in the Mets getting Pedro? Later
