  1. Who would have guessed that a 10 inning Boston-MFY game would end before the Mets-Marlins finished the 9th?
  2. Moron. Tying run on first. Good hitter at the plate. No reason to try to score.
  3. That was a break.
  4. I don't know why, but the new graphic for Kevin Burhardt's reports, "KEVIN BURKHARDT REPORTS" and then the subject, makes me laugh.
  5. Omar did nothing to improve the starters. Maine shouldn't be the #2. He's a #4 at best right now.
  6. There's our #2 pitcher. Thanks Omar!
  7. Update: Kristen cannot register as well. That's 3 ladies that want to register and cannot. Please help them.

  9. Carolyn and Jenn are trying to register but are having some trouble. Perhaps our "sys ops" can contact them. I think that you can get them via their blog. Meanwhile, Carolyn would have posted this: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rooting for the Mets was a choice assigned to me as a child. Rooting for the Cubs was a way of fitting in to a new city - one that didn't particularly like people from the East Coast - but never made me belong. But rooting for the Nationals...that's the only time the choice felt like my own, and felt right. :-)
  10. If you're interested in reading the thoughts of female baseball fans that love the Nationals, then I have the blog for you: http://wevegotheart.com/ One of the writers is my friend Jenn who you know as dcbatgirl from my Mets @ Nats KTE's.
  11. You gotta see the play Mark Buehrle just made. Under his legs like a long snapper, right to 1B.
  12. I have the Nationals pre-game on until Extra Innings kicks in at 1... it's like a Phillies home game in DC. Absolutely pathetic showing by Nationals fans. Edgy and Vladius notwithstanding, this is an awful sports town. Perhaps the locals are out buying McNabb jerseys.
  13. The Forum's picks ranged from 4th place to a World Series Championship. The high was Fman99 with 124 wins (maybe he was high) and the low was Mex17 with 72. Here's to a great '10!
  14. The first KTE of the season has set a standard for references to oral sex and fornication.

    Can anyone give me a logical argument for keeping Nieve over Figueroa? I know it's a business, but I think of Figueroa telling Kevin Burkhardt the other day that he's never been on a major league roster on Opening Day. That, and the fact that he pitched great (other than one outing) in ST. Why do we even have ST games if you can't make the team based on your performance? Why not just have workouts for a month and then start the season? I know that this isn't what will or will not put the team in the playoffs, and I have nothing against Nieve, but Figueroa should be on the team. Heck, I'd put him in the rotation and sent Perez to Buffalo (or Siberia, if I could) but that's unrealistic. And why Igarashi or Takahashi? Or did the Wilpons tell Omar to keep them on the team to sell Mets stuff in Japan? And LWFS is right about Mejia. The Mets aren't winning anything this year, other than "Team With the Worst GM", so send him to AA or AAA, and let him become a good SP--it's not like the Mets have a plethora in that category.
  16. Someone spent the money on a brick and all they wrote was "MOO"?
  17. Good riddance, I mean good luck!, to Wallace Matthews. He's not leaving NY, but he's left Newsday to join ESPN NY as the Yankees reporter. That means no more lame columns about the Mets. http://www.espnmediazone3.com/us/2010/04/espnnewyork-com-announces-contributors/ http://espn.go.com/newyork/
  18. A BOC nomination to Edgy for the *explanation of "Catalanotto."
  19. Another book about the baseball card industry is out: http://www.slate.com/id/2247677/

  22. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2010/baseball/mlb/03/29/expert.picks/index.html Why don't they just give the Phillies a bye until October?

    The Indians waived LHP Jeremy Sowers. His numbers against lefties last year weren't very good so as desperate as the Mets might be for a complement to Feliciano, he doesn't look like a good alternative. http://mlb.mlb.com/stats/individual_player_splits.jsp?playerID=460265&statType=2&splitSet=1&c_id=cle&sitSplit1=lb
