  1. After two days in the desert sun, my skin began to turn red.

  3. Edgy DC wrote: Of course not. It happens every day. think they'll wait for the game to end? will the game end?
  4. Edgy DC wrote: A lot of things seem obvious to you that are real elusive to mee. You wouldn't be shocked to actually wake up tomorrow and find Omar or Jeff had actually fired someone?
  5. Edgy DC wrote: I'm re-starting the watch. why bother, since it seems obvious Jeff an Omar aren't wearing one. Honestly, this team, all around, from Pelfrey and his 8 days rest and stiff neck, to Reyes and Castillo and Beltran, all look unprepared to actually play baseball. With the position the Mets are in, at this point in this season, that's just criminal.
  6. Since i'm failing with injuries as it is, i'll take another shot and probably miss: Angel Pagan. I think he started lf in 2008, rf in 2009, but I could easily be way off and he was also injured early 2009.
  7. hmm. Mike Cameron.
  8. Jose Reyes Kaz Matsui both started both MI positions I believe.

There's that new overslot guy they just signed. I imagine many of the newbies haven't been swiped. Cory Vaughn maybe? Any particular style this stuff goes by? Just sorta keep tabs on the young fella?

  11. Edgy DC wrote: I agree with LeiterWagner that Barajas is looking less valuable right now and for the foreseeable future than Blancito. That said, I have problem with the Ceetar plan of carrying all three and maybe splitting PT three ways. How they fit, I don't know. Maybe send Jerry down. HAR! I"m becomng a crank. I imagine know the Mets would like to have all three in September, and finding a way to get through the next five-six weeks without losing one is probably something like the plan. But yeah, I think a traded Barajas probably isn't much of a strategic loss, but you probably have to be confident that Blanco and Thole can carry the load down the stretch. The Mets never seemed to think Blanco can handle steady work. I don't know that i like my plan, but it seems better than just demoting Thole because of options. maybe they _are_ actually being smart and using the three catchers to rest Barajas to get him fresh.
  12. I'd keep the three catchers for now, giving Thole more time to assess if he's worthwhile for the stretch run, and seeing if Barajas will ever wake up. I'd use them as pinch hitters when necessary, and I'd dump Carter (who's basically filling a PH role anyway, so the third catcher can do that, plus Thole is taking grounders at first right? :-P) since he's not really doing that well, and i'm not sure Jerry really trusts him either. Maybe Barajas is really more of a light load type of guy, and we should play him barely 33% of the time for a couple of weeks, he'll wake up, and be healthy and April-May fresh for Sept-OctobeR? In a couple of weeks (well, maybe 10 days depending) you assess if you think Barajas will provide some pop and at least not be an auto-out going forward. See if you can trade him, or just trust him and get Thole the seasoning for a month (back 9/1 presumably). If not, just play Thole, let Barajas go (it's alright, we'll mail him a ring) and be done with it.

  14. The Second Spitter wrote: LF sucks -- obstructed views precisely. LF infield seems fine, but as you start to bend around the foul pole it gets bad. certain parts of the promenade will obscure a good swatch of LF/CF. obviously if you're in the OF you won't be able to see the LF wall, but that's just how it goes. if you're in the lower sections, it's much like the loge. As you go about haflway back you won't be able to see pop flies or the scoreboard.
  15. I credit Blanco will calling Cuzzi out, particularly in game. Even though ultimately it probably would've been better for Frankie to get tossed, at least Blanco seemed to realize he should figuratively step between the two.
  16. Santana 4.5 Davis 2.5 Wright 1 Pagan .5 Bay .5 Blanco .25
  17. Hmm, no lineup yet. Reyes? Pagan? Beltran? Interesting to see. Finally get our Ace though. about time.

"Having said that, I don't necessarily think you have to go to a funeral to honor someone. No - why ruin a good day off to go to the funeral of a man you supposedly admire? He seriously said that? seriously? Where's Michael Kay? This spin must be funny.
  20. #889 would be Justin Turner. Wearing Bobby Valentine's #2, walked in his first AB pinching hitting for Alex Cora.
