Aaron Small with start on Sunday and not Chacon.

Still nothing to see here........

Gary Cohen sure sounds like he's had enough of "Lima time"...

Lima blows..

]This is a perfect chance to let Aaron Heilmann prove that he can pitch 5 innings, as a tryout for the rotation. Heilman has proven that already.

My prediction is that he'll be gone by the fourth inning today...

Bobby V might have done that......

Bases loaded ofr Wright.....LaRussa goes to the pen, Izzy in to pitch.

Looper is up in the pen, there is hope........

]Sir Paul's too busy crying over his busted marriage to croon for the CPF And blaming the media for it....yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn....

More Jeter worship.... This explains it all

FWIW the review in the NYT today was mixed to say the least. http://movies2.nytimes.com/2006/05/17/movies/17cnd-code.html?hp&ex=1147924800&en=4275ff17e53f2bc7&ei=5094&partner=homepage

] Mets could clear way for Glavine's exit Never mind that $12 million club option for 2007 that the Mets included in left-hander Tom Glavine's restructured contract: There is little chance the team will exercise it. The Mets have agreed informally to decline the option if Glavine wants to return to the Braves next season, according to a source with knowledge of his contract. The restructured deal also includes a "poison pill," FOXSports.com has learned � a $3 million bonus if Glavine makes the All-Star team in '06 and '07 and a $2 million bonus if he makes it only in '07. By defeating the Cardinals on Tuesday night, Glavine, 40, improved to 6-2 with a 2.43 ERA � All-Star caliber numbers. Both the Mets and Braves figure to want him next season; he is now just 19 victories short of 300. Thanks to the All-Star bonuses, Glavine's club option with the Mets could be worth $14 million or $15 million � both prohibitive numbers. If the Mets want to keep Glavine, they almost certainly would negotiate a new deal at a lower salary. Glavine restructured his contract with the Mets to reduce his '06 salary from $10.5 million to $7.5 million. In return, he received the $12 million club option and a $5.5 million player option for '07, both with a $3 million buyout. The new deal protects Glavine if he suffers a serious injury later this season; his player option amounts to disability insurance. The value of that option will increase by $1 million each if he pitches 180, 190 and 200 innings, maxing out at $8.5 million. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/5612148

From Ken Rosenthal... Some scouts believe that Mets Double-A outfielder Carlos Gomez has even more upside than Triple-A outfielder Lastings Milledge, the team's top prospect. Gomez, however, is not close enough to the majors to make the Mets comfortable about trading Milledge. Playing in Double-A at age 20, he's struggling with a .582 on-base/slugging percentage.

Game back on says Gary, midnight our time....

CF that is so funny...the way Tim says the word, sounds like it was the first time he ever heard the word oxymoron.

Klapisch will just change the name form Jeter to Posoda and still write his puff piece.

Fuck not Jeter, Klapisch and the boys must be getting hard at the thought of this.....

Texas take the lead again 13 to 12, Rivera pitching.

Glavine back on track.....very cool as rally song works.

Glavine out Valentin hitting, and he's out as I type....

Floud is having a fine night at the plate, Willie knows what he's doing guys, sitting Cliff has worked, I love Willie.

I guess Nady drove in a run huh?

Kazmir will win the CY Young.....in a fucking MFY uniform........
