    Throb with the leadoff double, and here comes Francoeur to bunt.

The Mets have far greater needs that they should be addressing in order to improve the team. Edgy DC wrote: Well, I'm not sure what needs they were hoping to address. All we know is a report* claims that Castillo was being dangled (even as we hear he's hurting this evening). We don't know what they were allegedly shopping him for. * Right and right.

    Well, I'd rather have Pagan up in this spot than Wright anyway.

    Led the league with 20 sacs in 2006. He's good to go. Only problem is that you'd have to back up the truck for him.

    Wright? No, because of the position fit. Reyes? Probably.

    Game came in today's mail. Figured I'd christen it with a game, but the problem is... the 2009 Mets kinda sucked. Johan Santana pitched 7 2/3 gorgeous innings, bringing a 3-0 lead into the top of the eighth before yielding to Bobby Parnell, who came in and struck out Ryan Zimmerman with runners at first and second. Brought Frankie in to pitch the ninth; he walked Adam Dunn, then struck out Dukes and Willingham. Josh Bard doubled, which brought Cristian Guzman to the plate. No way Guzman hits in that spot, so I pinch-hit Austin Kearns... who whomped a three-run game-tying home run. (Off the pitcher's card, and it would NOT have been a home run for Guzman. Fuckin' hell.) Thankfully, Reyes homered in the bottom of the inning to salvage the W.

    Jeff just can't get enough of that chant.

    I don't even like watching games at Turner Field because of the effing chant. Drives me batty.

    Edgy DC wrote: I'd definitely think hitting, lads. Yes, but where? You don't realistically have any open spots right now, unless you think they're going to cut Jeff Francoeur loose, which I doubt. Bay, Wright, Reyes, Davis, and Barajas aren't going anywhere. You're not going to find a second baseman unless you cut Castillo, and with Perez choking up half a bajillion dollars, I don't think they'll cut both of them. And who's out there? What would it take to get Dan Uggla? (Do we want to give the Marlins more future ammunition against us? Don't we lose to them enough?) Ty Wigginton is cheap, and having a blast of a year in Baltimore. With the specter of Beltran hanging over CF, you really can't go out there and get a bat either. I don't know.

    I'd get Smoltz -- and Pedro -- on board. Make it happen, Omar!

Hoping he can work through it on his own in the minor leagues is likely an ill conceived plan. I wish him luck in overcoming the mental demons that are hindering him.Yes. This type of problem is purely psychological. You can work it out by practice, but a psychologist would work better. The issue is often caused by thinking about what you are doing instead of doing it. The player knows how to throw the ball, but when he tries to, he starts thinking about each element. It's like the old trick in golf: just before he drives, you ask your opponent if he inhales or exhales before he swings. The opponent (if he doesn't know the trick) starts thinking about it, and he can't drive worth beans all day. Note to self: Decline Chuck's invitation to golf.

    Someone call Omar and ask him to trade Ollie for Griffey.
