Climb on. We're going for a ride.

Maybe, but Duren's autobiography isn't two drunk salesmen pissing at the bar, alcoholic though he was. Must be something to it.

Really, in the history of this team, has any in-season bullpen acquisition come in and made the difference? I can't think of too many for any team, really. The closest I can think of is Guillermo Mota, who came in and picked up where Duaner Sanchez left off in 2006, but (a) the Mets got him for nothing, ( we were heading to the playoffs with or without him, © he ended up sucking it up in the post-season, (d) he was a-cheating, and (e) the Mets should have shunned him and instead paid him good money to take them for a ride and get suspended. Meanwhile, we've given up valuable players like Jason Isringhausen and Jason Bay. Half of Xavier Nady too. We lost this, in the end, on a few stupid grounders that split the infield. The answer isn't to trade for a more perfect bullpen. The answer is to build more margin for error.

Danny Muno, currently schedueld to be the 1,000th Met, is activated today from the guilty urine list.

Josh Lewin: And Pastornicky can't get it down! Edgy DC: Ah, to be 14 again.
-
Big spots for Edgin, Beato, and (hopefully next inning) Parnell. We're building a bullpen on top of the one we bought.
-
I don't care if Tejada never steals a base or steals a moment, he's my leadoff batter.

Fuck Huston Street!

I'm jumping on the Edgin bandwagon. Does he have a bandwagon? It better have some springs.

Leavin' him in to face Diaz. Geren's call or Terry working from an undisclosed location?

I don't know what that Cerone comment means, but [bigpurple:9fhhaf0x]GEREN'S IN A POSITION TO WIN! BRING ON WARTHAN FOR THE SAVE![/bigpurple:9fhhaf0x] Ashie, cut back a little. It's still early.
-
Geren's first big call and he's.... pinch-hitting Turner? You got big Lucas Duda on the bench, Bob. And it's a righty pitching, Bob. And Justin knocks Hanson out. GEREN'S A GENIUS! FIRE TERRY![/bigpurple]
-
Boo.

I'm guessing Terry asked them to also retroactively reverse the call on Valdespin before he got tossed. Is Bob Geren now the manager of record, or do the runners belong to Terry?
-
Breaker, Breaker, this is C.B. Bucknor. I'm rolling through Georgia with an irate Dominican on my tail. Ya copy? Swan Swan H wrote: Edgy, you think Valdespin goes down and Quintanilla stays? Q is getting next to no playing time, and is the third shortstop right now. Q got no options. Also should he clear waivers, there's less future value in getting him the regular infield PT that Valdy would get in Waffleo. But I definitely think the redundancies in the infield have the Mets contemplating trades.

It's a plan, but he's been trying to learn second for 20 years. If he doesn't go down, I'm sure he'll play winter ball. But yeah, he'll probably head down when Bay comes back.

From Ryne Duren's New York Times obituary: Duren remembered how in August 1965, pitching for the Washington Senators, he was hit hard by the Yankees in relief while pitching with a hangover, had some drinks afterward, then left his car on the way home, climbed a bridge and started shouting. The police brought Manager Gil Hodges to the scene to talk him down. A week later, the Senators released Duren, and he was finished in baseball. Gil Hodges talks suicidal drunks off bridges, and got two bridges named after him.

Tejada steals a hit and Muffry gives one back.
