  1. Martino wants Rollins to be the NL's starting SS.

Maybe as a result there was some sort of promise made to him of more air time. I think FOX wanted him for a Saturday game and SNY said no.

"Where is Guys! Now? Is he in the bleachers, the photographer's booth, outside the locker room, the broadcast booth? He could be anywhere! Tune in to SNY at 7 PM tonight and find out where Guys! is. You can also watch the Mets play the Braves." SNY strains to find as much for Guys! to do as possible. What they don't realize is that it detracts from the game which is what we are there to watch. If they want to make Guys! the star of the post-game, fine. If they want to make him the #2 announcer in the radio booth, fine. But SNY is handling this very badly. Just let us watch the Mets.

  5. Rotoworld_BB Rotoworld Baseball Jeter exits game with apparent injury
  6. Once again, Murphy shows us that while he can hit, he is bad in every other phase of the game. Idiot.
  7. I don't have the same animosity as most do toward Wayne. Maybe that's because he's not everybody else other than Howie... because almost everybody else other than Howie stinks. Charlie Slowes in DC is good (a Fordham grad) but most radio guys (and gals, Suzyn) are awful. Wayne tries hard, too hard but whenever I get frustrated with him, and wonder why he's there, I remember that he's the 2d best radio broadcaster in NY. I know--that's damning with faint praise but I don't hate the guy even though he's not great.
  8. Welcome back D.J. Carrasco--Thayer to Buffalo.
  9. Dickey with the CG. He deserved a better fate. Murphy's misplay lost the game. I know it was only his 2d game of the year at 3B but he should have at least knocked the ball down. Also: Dickey hitting into the 1st pitch DP with the bases loaded; Paulino and Bay looking at strike 3 w/runners at 2d and 3d; and, Bay possibly misplaying Jones' drive which resulted in the 1st run.
  10. Huey Lewis in the Pirates TV booth.
  11. Good story to read during a commercial: http://www.ocregister.com/sports/langdon-303930-moreno-angels.html
  12. That's a double? Unbelievable. Even Pirates' TV can't believe it.
  13. I forgot that Murphy is such a great a hitter that he has to play every day and bat cleanup, even against lefties.
  14. Pirates' radio (not to be confused with the excellent movie "Pirate Radio") tonight: "Jason Bay asked for a couple of days off." No he didn't.
  15. Twitter updated from Jack "LeatherRocket" Leathersich: Training sesh with matt and sandy then relaxing all day! #grind
  16. I'm confused as to why O'Connor was sent down (lefty) and why Thayer (a mustachioed Parnell) was kept. I know that O'Connor had a few bad outings in a row but I wished that he was around to pitch to Fielder.
  17. If you want to read something really good, I mean goose-bump good, read the Happy Recap for Game 55.
  18. The Mets take yet another pitcher drafting John (You're With Me) Leathersich, from UMass, Lowell in the 5th round. Read his influences: http://www.goriverhawks.com/sports/m-basebl/mtt/leathersich_jack00.html
  19. Thanks for posting the video, JCL.
  20. Harper's a year away from Nationals and I hate him already. http://thebiglead.com/index.php/2011/06/07/bryce-harper-homered-admired-his-feat-then-blew-a-kiss-to-the-pitcher-video/
  21. Bouton's a great choice but I'd go with the Babe. The greatest player of all-time not named Derek Jeter.
  22. I was hoping that the Mets would take college players as they are theoretically closer to the majors than HS players but Sandy and DiPodesta know more than I do, and they haven't screwed up a Mets draft yet, so I gotta trust them.
  23. Too bad that they can't trade up.
  24. There was a comment in an ESPN mock that the Mets would like to wait until 44 but don't think that he'll still be there. But Jim Bowden agrees on ESPN with LWFS's suggestion: Jim Bowden: Best picks so far based on where they picked: O's,KC,WSH,Cubs....worst picks where they picked: Mets,Astros
