  1. ]Tickets for this event give new meaning to the term "sold out." Like Klapisch?
  2. Cubbies love those oft-injured pitchers.
  3. Perez 3 Tatis 3 Smith 3 Feliciano .5 Heilman .5
  4. Or was I? I missed it, huh?
  5. Am I up again?
  6. Mike: I can't eat four-legged animals. Russo: Can you give me an example? Mike: COWS!! Russo: What about hamburgers? Mike: I can't eat bread. Russo: Can you eat bagels? Mike: No, that's bread. Russo: French Toast? Mike: That's made from bread. Russo: Pancakes?
  7. On Edgy's link, and Russo saying those things don't happen to hockey players...doesn't he remember Terry Sawchuck?
  8. My favorite Mad Dog moment was when a caller asked him how slugging percentage was calculated, and he had no idea. The caller asked if it maybe had something to do with total bases or extra base hits, and the Dog said No, he was sure that wasn't it.
  9. How can you end your career in 2000 and work again in 1998?
  10. Wouldn't you want to get to the ballpark a little later rather than earlier, if BP were shortened? Maybe Jerry does it differently, but if I were shortening BP, I'd start it later rather than cutting it off earlier and giving the players a little extra time to play Texas hold'em in the clubhouse.
  11. No relation to Freddie, then?
  12. Maine - 3 Smith - 1 Heilman - 1 Chavez - 2 Delgado - 2 Reyes - 1
  13. He seems to have gotten unconverted from John Gibbons. Think Cito Gaston reads Bill James?
  14. A farm system's raw material is 18-21-year-old kids, which means it replenishes its resources pretty completely every three years. If you trade away four or five prospects, you're not bankrupting the farm system for a generation.
  15. Since you can't go wrong with any of the three of them, I voted for Reyes.
  16. Also, it seems as though Willie's bought into all this "Oh, they did it the wrong way" bushwah.
  17. Dealing with adversity is not Willie's strong suit. He has a way of saying things to the press that he shouldn't. I would be really worried if Jerry Manuel hadn't been prepared with his own ideas about running the ballclub. I think Willie needs a slithering henchman.
  18. I'm thinking the Mets should hire Giuseppe Franco, because he won't put his name on a product unless he knows it really works.
  19. Where can I get a slithering henchman?
  20. That would be the best choice, for sure.
  21. Suggestions for Jerry Manuel's reading list? Crime and Punishment No Country for Old Men L.A. Confidential
  22. Was Bambi ever a coach? I remember him coming as manager and leaving as manager.
  23. He seemed to be doing a lot of reading in the dugout last night. Scouting reports? Old Davey Johnson computer printouts? George Will? Ghandi?
