  1. No ground rule doubles but he will hit a homer that will need to be reviewed.

But if you want stories that cut closer to the truth, and bring you near to the heart of any matter, sometimes anonymity is necessary. I call BS. Sometimes, yes. But this has become standard operating procedure for many sports writers. And, frankly, sources demand the anonymity because they can. Don't be a conduit for a source to take a cheap shot at someone. If it's so good that you feel the need to write about it, do the leg work and get it on the record. This isn't Deep Throat and matters of national importance. This isn't whistle-blowing, exposing corruption or saving lives. This is guys covering a baseball team who have created a culture where snark is news and snarky people are protected for saying things behind someone's back. So totally this^. Those who fear losing their job because of being quoted should not put themselves in that position.
  3. I read that whole article and my first thought coming away from it is if they okay this business with Matt would Hefner be given the opportunity to do the same thing? And why is this done through an intermediary? Why can't Harvey just go to Anderson and hash it out behind closed doors? I respect Harvey for what he's saying but not how he's going about communicating it to the team.
  4. Where did he get a pic of my living room?
  5. Flores made an excellent play on a grasscutter in the hole. Slid, backhanded,popped up and showed some nice arm. Well, if he can do that...
  6. I think one by one the Mets are becoming head cases. Tejada: Ew, a ground ball, I gotta catch it, I gotta catch it, I gotta catch it, UHMPH!: E-6 Ike: I know what I'll do. I'll walk out there in a boot ! Niese: My arm hurts, my arm hurts!

  9. metsmarathon wrote: im dropping out. no time to think about beatley song parodies. Booo! The first step is asking for an extension.
  10. I may need a "snow emergency" extension. Got it half done. I might make it in time.
  11. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: I'm thinking Boras finally has a name for his mystery team. (And/or that the price for Nick Franklin just went up.) Either way... Ruben or bust? (Fourth error today, by the by.) He also made a good play. He's not hitting shit though. And he doesn't look in any different shape than I've seen in the past. Certainly no quicker on his feet. What he's doing under these circumstances is now getting funny. L'il bit.
  12. He'll steal 33 bases.
  13. Got to check the new station out down here. Its not clear, much static, but it doesn't go in and out like the old one used to. It's consistent.
  14. Wow. Hawk was scalped. My apologies to Taylor for that comment.
  15. Sweet cards. That rook card. Pop out Flores and pop in Thor and Im droolin.
  16. Bobby 'O said yesterday that Parnell is the key player, and he has a point. But I can't agree that he's the #1 choice.
  17. Rollins is the type of player who would be pumped by a change of scenery and his #s would reflect it. At least initially. I'm all for Rollins at the right price.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: It's like he's doing an original dance solo, entitled, "No, Seriously, Guys, You Need A Shortstop." lol I wanna say I'm done with him (even might have already somewhere [and I am]) but I'll give him a dozen more games to show me something. I'm a lifer Mets fan. I just keep lowering the bar.
  19. Ruben can't even lay down a successful sac bunt anymore. Jeeze.
  20. Had a good outing today. Might have been all goose eggs if Wright didn't err. Other than that this guys future is a big ? to me. Middle relief, sweeping up seeds and blow outs.
  21. Wins 16, 3.47 ERA
  22. He'll struggle to start and kinda even out, with a few bright spots. 9-11, 3.63.
  23. Every save guess gets higher. 37 saves!
  24. Wheeler. We need him to grow into whatever it is he's going to be.
  25. If he stays healthy (50-50): .299/.336/.417, 9 hr, 41 doubles.
