  1. God do I loathe Steve Phillips' commentary and general smugness. He's a big dumb ****. Yes, we get it. Brian Bannister would look good in the rotation right now. That trade was a year and a half ago. Let's move on, shall we? I wish every time he did this someone would remind him that he traded Izzy and McMichael for Billy Fucking Taylor or Melvin Mora for Mike Fucking Bordick. There, I feel better now.

  3. No chance to post during the game, but what a game. Good stuff all around. Like Listerine getting the taste of last night's events out of my mouth.
  4. I've been meaning to drive to Binghamton (75 minutes or so from home) to catch a game. It's just easier and more convenient to stay local and watch AAA ball in Syracuse. Ideally next year I'm watching the Mets AAA affiliate instead of Toronto's. Not that the Mets won't continue to send their 90% of their best prospects to AA anyway.

I could not find any of the EI games in HD on my service (Time Warner). I'll have to call and find out if any of the games are carried in HD.

Intentionally jiggling your knee during a delivery would be reckless; it could cause the fake injury to become a real one instead. I thought the same thing when I saw the replays. Clearly something in his leg gave out.

    He made a big flap this spring about having to wear a helmet on the field as per the new MLB rules. Which immediately made me think that he's just a stubborn dope.
  10. Did Gary Cohen make a "Moises Alou pees on himself" joke? When Sosa was hitting, and the bat flew out of his hands, Gary referred to "Moises Alou's grip solution." Keith and Ron let it slide right by. Too funny.

  12. That was quite the nice play by both Beltran and Castillo. On to the 10th...

Here's the list. That's an interesting list. Hard to believe that only 8 of Mays' 660 dingers were with the bases juiced.
  14. Seriously, I almost never read any commentary from the NY Papers anymore. The pro-MFY bias is too palpable. I'll take my commentary from national outlets and bloggers, thanks.

    This stung a bit less after watching Pagan and Church get back to back RBIs earlier yesterday. Nonetheless Gomez looked mighty fast on that turf.

    Wow, an OPS of 1.465. That's the shizz.
  18. Atlanta getting slapped around. Flush Gordon blows up. Me likee and me likee.
  19. I wonder if/how many of the MLB EI package games are in HD.
  20. Santana - 5 Wright - 2.5 Pagan - 1 Church - 1 Anderson - .5
  21. Umps blew that one. He was safe.

  23. I like "In-a-godda-davida" as a write-in candidate. There you go.
  24. Aye aye, Captain. Leaving work at 4 PM (got here early) and listening to the first few innings on XM on my way home. Cannot wait. GO METS!
