  1. Anyone know why he was featured on the SNY Broadcast the other night? I happened to catch the screen but there was no sound. I remember thinking I hope he didn't die. Just googled him and nothing came up.

  3. Speak for yourselves. I was looking forward to October after Tuesday night. No, really. I hadn't been that high on the Mets in a long time.
  4. I guess 3-3 ain't terrible. Such a shame not getting to 4-2. Really needed last night's game.
  5. I'm hoping the Astros hit that magic number of 121.
  6. Pelf not looking particularly acely.
  7. I texted him pics of Dominican food late at night when he was in Florida but it didn't work. I think you guys should help me with this.
  8. Your first place Mets take on the lowly Phils.* *Yes, technically the Phils are tied with the Mets for first place, but the Mets win the head-to-head matchup giving them the tiebreaker.** **Yes, technically there is no such tiebreaking system for head-to-head matchups in baseball, but it does exist in other sports, and last time I checked, baseball is a sport.
  9. I think Dorothy is tougher.
  10. Rubber game on the road. I feel like the last time we won one of those was 2009. Good stuff.
  11. Free Willie Harris!
  12. Nice win, but I had some serious issues with [crossout:zjhmvuar]Willie[/crossout:zjhmvuar]Terry Collins in this game. Pinch-running Davis in a tie game? The speed of Hu ended up making no difference, but we missed Davis's defense in the bottom of the 9th (maybe Ike grabs the one that got past Murphy) and his bat in the tenth. If Harris doesn't tack on two runs there, who knows what happens. FK mentioned it, but bunting Reyes over with Pagan? BiFL. Plus, I've seen about enough of Rodriguez as closer. Time to make a switch to Parnell. I never realized how much an incentive clause would affect my rooting interest in a game.
  13. Free Lucas Duda! Let's see what the big guy can do.
  14. Wow. Had.
  15. Ashie62 wrote: Now thats major League Mets win the WS Snark!!! Really? I'm trying to be sincere here. I would love to think the Mets could win it all this year, but it's hard for me to realistically believe this. But I do honestly feel good about the Mets' prospects in the coming years. We have a front office that should be able to follow the Red Sox model closely. I think this bodes really well for the future. This is the optimism thread right? You guys are optimisticking for one championship. I'm optimisticking for a dynasty. The only thing I'm really worried about is Reyes, who I'm afraid this management team may not value as much as we do (if more by our hearts than our heads) and that's why I'm hoping he comes back.
  16. I don't know that this is our year, but ten years from now, when trying to sort out all the championships won in the past decade (there are so many they blend together), we will look back on this year as the one that began the turnaround. Jose Reyes is going to steal 30 bases in the first week of the season and leave Sandy no choice but to sign him to an extension.
  17. Like Vic, I'm pretty sure they'll suck. My worry is that they'll lose Jose.
  18. I never realized Charlie Manuel was so racist.
  19. Bobby Valentine is awesome.
  20. Gregg Jefferies peaked before he lost his rookie status.
  21. Alderson says contract talks during spring training are "unlikely". I repeat, this makes no sense to me. Up until now I've given Sandy the benefit of the doubt, but this just sucks.
  22. Beltran's situation, though unfortunate, is not surprising. He was a candidate for micro-fracture surgery. He elected not to get it. That move seems pretty foolish now. Had he elected to do it two years ago, it's possible he would have a clean bill of health at this point. Sure, it's risky, but at least there's a chance he'd be better. As of now, he still has the bone-on-bone contact that created the bone bruise. The only way to heal that, other than the surgery, is with rest. Unfortunately, once you stop resting, and start running again, the bone bruise returns. It's been over a year since his last surgery. He is not getting better. He needs two days off after DH-ing half a game. This does not bode well for the season.
  23. Those contractors did a great job of picking up A-Rod's house and moving it to the left.
