Jesus H Christ , the guy seating behind Burkhardt as he does his piece looks fucking creepy, talking about the guy on the right.

two out two on and Murphy at the plate....oh wow , great leaping catch at SS from Murphy's liner...

Dickey on base with a walk , Cohen intimating that R.A. is in savage pain out there , Keith saying that Reyes if he stays healthy is on his way to the HOF. Tejada with a hit....

Kinda cool DavidWaldstein Was looking at Beltran's career stats and noticed he has 289 stolen bases and 289 home runs. IN-CREDIBLE COINCIDENCE!!!

Not taking sides here but not seeing where batmag is being a jerk here.

Sorry for dropping the ball on my KTE duties this season.

I love this team , no matter who goes out injured or who's not hitting they play hard and look like a team, fun game for JCL and family to be at.

Eight years ago today in Texas? http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/mets/post/_/id/25876/on-eighth-anniversary-reyes-recalls-debut

This IGT has certainly started in a strong manner.

SNY on the pre game showed a stat, I think it was SLG and his compared trough the years to IIRC Doug Flynn, Rey Ordonez and basically some of the worst hitters ever to lift a bat.

If you are to believe what you read and from what Collins says then Hudgens tweaked his swing in Spring Training and then had him go back to his old swing at some point and that didn't work either, Collins also thinks he is hearing advice from too many people and that Bay maybe "talking to someone else too" but he doesn't know that, an old coach somewhere?.....anyway trying to read between the lines , never a good thing for me Bay needs to drop the bat and get away from baseball.

Very nice series to be at Monk , you saw some great baseball, and some bad of course, still had to be nice to see a Mets team this scrappy nearly take all three.

I just don't see him giving the Mets more than Martinez or Duda could over the next 2 1/2 years. agree totally about his production relative to those guys , Bay might not hit 20 home runs over the next few seasons as a Met, if a team did take him the Mets would be paying most of his salary to be sure.What a shame that his first trip back to Pittsburgh and he is benched. Ojeda claims he got pull happy in Boston but that hardly explains his success in Pittsburgh does it?

Didn't listen this morning but laughed when I saw your tweet because it's so true.

I've been listening to Boomer and Carton the last two mornings and that is all they talked about and all any caller wanted to talk about......gotta hit someone , especially Ortiz although both said hitting last night was no good because it should have happened in game two.....yyybbb.... mildly entertaining...(had never tuned to those two before, as these shows go they weren't terrible)

Harper is all about trading Rodriguez to the MFY to solve both clubs problems, won't happen yet though he says.

Sounds like he is being sat for the next few games too , Collins on the pre game talking about how it's darker here at Miller Park and that Bay might not be seeing the ball, yeah he actually said that . Collins then went on to talk about Bay sitting to give him time to " work on what they are working on". Burkhardt then talked about a few things the Mets might do , sit him for a few games and hope whatever he and the hitting coach is working on fixes things and he " hits the ground running" or bench him and bring up Duda. WOW

Piazza is my all time favorite but Rey Ordonez was the first baseball player that made me take notice of the game in NY. I distinctly remember arguing with a Guy that he was better that Jeter, whatever, to me he was. I have always had a soft spot for Rey.

Joba with torn ligaments in his elbow, Tommy john says Girardi, a real doc has yet to confirm that.

Reyes , he makes the game exciting and each AB is must see.

Star players in the early years were making part-time-quality salaries. MLS didn't care to live up to US standards or FIFA standards. No freedom of movement for players, no selling oneself on the open market. Meanwhile, virtually any player in the league can be transferred to another club within the league without his consent even if such transfer is international. Ridiculous. They had 80% of the players working without guaranteed contracts. The contract of almost every player in the league contained multiple, unilateral one-year options that may only be exercised by the league. It's been disgusting, and it's doubly wrong that FIFA allows them membership while they blatantly violate the rules. As duan says, that America outwardly preaches the gospel of competition while it runs its sports leagues as cartels can't continue to remain lost on the world forever. Never thought about it like that, yeah it does suck although it is a very american model?
