Maine all over the place. 59 pitches through one and two thirds innings.

Dammit. I'm ten minutes late getting home from work and I miss a 5 run inning? Sheesh.

Agreed. It's hard for me to bitch excessively about a team that's been in first place all year. The Mets can't control how well the rest of the league plays. I DO think the 2007 squad has it's problems, but it has also had to deal with injuries as much as any team in baseball...not only injuries to starters, but also their immediate backups at the same time. The one thing I like most about the 2007 Mets has been watching some of the kids come into their own: Maine, Perez, Milledge, Gomez and Gotay have really impressed me.

Darrell Evans.

="Gwreck"] McGriff fell just short. Had about 90 for TB. Just short indeed: 125 w/ TOR, 111 w/ ATL and 99 w/ Tampa.

Laughing to the Bank (split from NYC's Weak Sisters, 2007)
TransMonk replied to Farmer Ted's topic in New York Mets Talk
I think this is the first time in a long time I've laughed out loud 3 times in one day to 3 completely different threads. -
It's pretty simple supply and demand. The average game attendance at Shea over the past 20 years has been 30,149. 2007 is the only year in the history of the stadium where the average attendance has exceeded 45,000. It's going to seem small during those few stretches when the Mets are in first for long periods of time. The park is still going to seem big during those rebuilding years (or decades).

1999:2000::2006:2007 - at least that's how I see it. I think the 2005ers played to their potential. 2007 is playing way below it IMO.

Edgy DC wrote: Maybe either the dumber or the smarter GMs are out of baseball these days (or both), but there are no teams over .600 and none under .400. TB still falls under .400, but they are close at .388. I swear this year is like going through 2000 all over again...not only with the Mets, but with the league too. We can complain about the Mets all we want, but I can't find a single dominant team this year in either league. I think fans of all teams over .500 can still find many things to complain about.

Saw it this morning...pretty decent. The first half-hour is the best, but I find that the Simpsons becomes a lot less funny after a half-hour.

To save the IGT from being a total bitchfest: 3 Run for Alou. 3-1 Good Guys

Good news for all of the peeps on the board calling for Castro to get more playing time. More strikeouts to cheer for.

We wuz robbed!

Isn't that the third bases loaded no out jam the Mets have gotten out of in the past couple of weeks? Shades of 2006...for better or worse.

Atlanta's bullpen was terrific. Alou was about as clutch as pissy hands climbing across greased monkey bars.
-
Mets wriggle out of bases-loaded no-out situation in the ninth. Last chance boys.
-
Yup...Ronnie, too.

Time for the good guys to put up a 3 spot.
