he's got his own website too http://www.brandenkaupe.com/ it has a phone number 808-463-4441

That guy was only drafted so the scout could write off his trip to Hawaii.

Because not only do I not, but I don't even know anyone that follows college baseball. I follow it as closely and with as much interest as all NCAA sports.

batmagadanleadoff wrote: I just gotta say that with the exception of Darryl Strawberry and maybe, maybe, one other Mets draft pick, I couldn't give a flying fuck about these amateur baseball drafts. Practically no interest at all. Don't know these guys. Don't pretend to know any of 'em. Crapshoot crapshoot crapshoot. Wake me when the Mets have the #1 overall and there's a can't miss prospect to be drafted. Like Billy Beane?

You're wrong on this issue. Additionally, cellular service is something between horrible and non-existent at most parks. Aside from San Francisco, I don't think there is free wifi in any of the parks. I get decent cell service at Citi. occasionally it flops when I try to upload a picture to Twitter, but it's pretty good.

eh, I'll trust that the Mets put more effort and research into it than a couple of random writers and a few scouts that may or may not have seen the kids more than once.

Edgy DC wrote: Jason Bay, as before, is perhaps his hobgoblin. If Ike sees Bay's jersey hanging in a locker, it's probably not a comfortable feeling. With a little hitting from Torres too, it gives the Mets some cushion to staff first with Duda and Rottino. Which might been Ike only has through the TB series before his next check in. (I think Terry mentioned using Bay mostly at DH at first.) 9 games. Give me 4 XBH, 4 singles, and 4 walks and you can stay. Figure he gets about ~36 AB, so that's ~ a .333 OBP and a .250 average.

John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: The Snooze ought to be above taking the bait of pretend cities taking shots at NY sports teams but it actually appears to be a priority of theirs. It's gross. They live for that stuff. The most offensive part of that was them describing the paper as "Voice of New York's Regular Guys". Also, named for a 'too big to fail' bank line. They're named from a too big to fail beer so watch it..and maybe have a real beer. There's one within walking distance. The Morgan Street Brewery is pretty good, check it out.

metsguyinmichigan wrote: I'm confused. If he's committed to a college, does that mean he doesn't play for us? Or does he now pass on college? I believe they pay him and he doesn't go, as long as they pay him before he attends his first class or something (which isn't a problem given the pushed up signing date)

Thanks for the knowledge, as always. Usually major league numbers are a tick lower though no? Wasn't calling him a bust exactly, but I'd probably think it's a safe bet it's between the 'utility player' that Jonah says he might be and what he's doing now.

Dickey-Wang. I love that matchup. one of the best in the league. (Although I bet the White Sox get some cool -Sale matchups. Sale-Price? Dickey-Sale? Wilson-Sale a pretty good baseball one.. I digress, we don't play the White Sox though) I don't know if the Nats can actually count on Lombadozzi being this good or Harper being one of the best 19 year olds ever. both facing back end of the rotations too. It'd have been nice to have both Santana and Dickey since the Yankees don't actually matter much, but whatever we can do to keep Santana healthy obviously.

okay, go time. let's see who we get.

Johan Santana was sitting by himself in the dugout. The not mentioning the no-hitter thing is part of the story. It's a baseball tradition. It's part of the whole allure and mystique behind the statistical anomaly.

Gwreck wrote: Duda and Murphy are plenty capable, no? they'll pitch careful to Duda. he'll walk. Murphy will hit his first homer of the year. but first they have to not allow more runs.

Benjamin Grimm wrote: I think being coy does affect his job performance. He's supposed to clearly describe what is going on to his audience. If he's doing otherwise out of some silly superstition, I think he's wrong. he's telling a story, and a large portion of the audience is invested in the jinx/don't mention it story. There are plenty of fans that get on Gary for jinxing things.

still a third of the game left for the Mets. 3+ runs? no sweat!

John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Didn't hear the radio broadcast but I'm sure Howie made it clear to listeners what was happening. I'm sure he played up the "no mention" thing as schtick even it was schtick he believed in. First thing he said when I turned on the radio in the top of the ninth "The Mets have all 8 hits in this game"
