  1. Wright finally steals a base after getting caught on his first three attempts this season.
  2. Another two-out rally and another RBI hit by David Wright. Tie game and first and third.
  3. Lost my radio feed, so I'm really talking to myself here. Jim Duquette has a lot to offer, but he sounds a little like a less animated version of Lewin. Plus, and it may be me, he sounds a little neutered. Like a guy who got demoted in public.
  4. Runs as a Met David Wright Projected to End of Season: 778.69 1) Jos� Reyes: 735 2) David Wright: 710 =#0000FF]David Wright at Start of Season: 699 3) Darryl Strawberry: 662 4) Howard Johnson: 627 5) Edgardo Alfonzo: 614 6) Mookie Wilson: 592 7) Cleon Jones: 563 8) Carlos Beltran: 551 9) Ed Kranepool: 536 10) Mike Piazza: 532
  5. Two-out rally, and an RBI double by Wright in the third puts them up 3-1. And like every time he drives a run home, David has set a new. Met. Record.
  6. This thread needs some baseball action. Mets up 2-1 on a two-run homer by Lucas Duda. Who is awesome. Duda.

I think I usually sneak the p in there too. The South Hempstead kids who went to my high school referred to themselves as "Hempers," not "Hemmers."
  8. I'm willing to write yesterday off to a confluence of ephemeral factors: long plane trip, Coors Field, unrested bullpen, rookie starter, contagious brain farting on defense. I'm willing if they're willing.
  9. Yeah, tryouts need to go at least two games. Thole 0.16 Baxter 0.19 Turner 0.41 Nieuwenhuis 0.45 Lutz 0.83 Parnell 1.18 Murphy 1.49 Schwinden 1.56 Acosta 3.73
  10. Hairston 5.37 Duda 1.48 Tejada 1.27 Nickeas 0.80 Batista 0.44 Byrdak 0.29 Wright 0.23 Ramirez 0.11
  11. Benjamin Grimm wrote: I wasn't watching at all, but I checked online in the middle of the fifth and the Mets had just scored four runs and taken a four-run lead. I toyed with the idea of watching for a little while, but opted not to. So I just missed the joy of seeing the Mets give up 11 runs in one inning. I blame Ben. For everything. The loss. Our dependence on foreign oil. My dog's weight. Everything. Benjamin Grimm wrote: That open rotation spot is going to be tricky, isn't it? Does Schwinden get another shot in five days? I'd rather see Schwinden than Batista, but I'd rather see Hefner than Schwinden. Are there any other viable options within the organization? Next in line should be Hefner. This should be obvious. He might be two starts into his Met career if they hadn't screwed up and called him up earlier to bail out the bullpen for a single game.
  12. The problem is that he's doing great in hindsight, and while I have no doubt that between his tenure in baseball and securities, he has some idea of valuation, we have no idea what kind of executive he'd've made. Because he was either disinterested in joining a front office at the entry level --- area scout level he'd probably initially get offered --- or he was too much a crank to be attractive to teams. A generation later, his r�sum� --- 17 years in baseball followed by 10 in finance by the time he was a still-young 44 --- would have made him a great candidate for an assistant GM post.
  13. Time for Murphy to put an offensive mark of his own on this game.
  14. Abreu and Inge both cut loose.
  15. Hit #13 turned into an out based on some real hustle by Murphy. Isn't that Murphy's M.O. in a nutshell? He sure stays with a play.
  16. And he singles, but that's sort of part of my point. He's a singles hitter and there's two out and nobody in scoring position. But what they hey, let's keep it goin'.
  17. Hmmm. Ending Thole's day off to try to keep the rally going with two out.
  18. And out-erring them by a factor of five!
  19. We don't have results for tonight yet.
  20. Fin de Siecle, Scott Hairston.
  21. Now Hairy is trying to make a little hist'ry of his own.
  22. Four errors in an inning ties a team record. I don't know, but I seem to recall Dave Kingman, Hubie Brooks, and/or Howard Johnson each experiencing a three-error inning on their own.
