We all deserve to be in a slump tonight after last nights game.

I saw the Hooters in those pants in a small local club. They weren't in those pants. I was. Wait...

1 hit nets one run. Muffy double, Davis Sacfly, Recker Sacfly.

You can see that does not cover the whole area but that can be done other ways. A whole new sky, removing the extra lights,and then matching tint, contrast, etc. Itll be a bit of work but its doable.

Hey m.e.t.b.o.t., how are you doing? For this game: http://cranepoolforum.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=19463 Where's all that love for Duda come from? metropolitan left fielder lucas duda generated a total of 0.089 WPA in the game, more than any other metropolitan. while metropolitan left fielder lucas duda had two negative WPA at bats, first flying out to right with the score tied 0-0 and no outs in the second inning (-0.023 WPA) and later flying out to left with the metropolitans trailing 3-8 with a runner on second and two outs in the fifth (-0.012 WPA), the at bat in the fourth inning generated a significant amount of WPA. with the metropolitans trailing 1-3 in the fourth inning, with a runner on first and no outs, metropolitan left fielder lucas duda singled to right field, advancing the baserunner from first to third. (note, the baserunner gets no credit for advancing the extra base as m.e.t.b.o.t. is unable to reliably ascertain whether the advancement was a neutral act or not). prior to the at bat, the metropolitans had a 33.3% probability of winning hte game. following hte at bat, teh metropolitans had a 45.7% probability of winning the game. metroplitan left fielder generated +0.124 WPA in this at bat. 0.089 WPA constituted 28.6% of the total 0.311 net-positive WPA generated by metropolitan players, and therefore metropolitan left fielder lucas duda is awarded 2.86 schaefer votes. Bleep-blaap-bloop. Translation=ty for the explanation. So Duda gets credit for 'might have beens'? Interesting.

Also,...silly question but, does it matter if the stadium is empty or not?

This was done along with those other two posted. It didn't make the cut. I'm working my Met wallpaper for a May update so this is alls I got for now.

I have a lot of pictures of Shea in my files. Unfortunately a high percentage are small low rez images and I figure these will be of no use to you. This one is nice but I think it might be too small and it cuts off the scoreboard. Narrow it down to year, day or night, and I'll see what I can come up with.

Note JS slipping in a Cleon Jones that nobody in his audience or at his desk gets but probably everyone here will. This was priceless. Swan Swan H wrote: In the QA thread I asked who should play Atticus Finch in a remake of 'To Kill a Mockingbird.' Edgy went with Viggo Mortensen, but Jon Hamm would be my call. One of my all time favorite movies. Tough shoes to fill. Peck was perfect. Hamm could be.

Vic Sage wrote: What we do have is our early history. We started so bad, so HISTORICALLY bad, that our badness has still not been equaled. And after 7 years of that badness, we won a WS, thus creating the "miracle mets". But that's a history of triumph over adversity, not awfulness. This is a great observation and has a lot to do with me becoming a Met fan. And when I am really down on the current state of affairs with the Mets, I just think about some of the rich history we have in such a relatively short time. And I'm not just talking about winning. People jump on the bandwagon when a team wins and then go back into the woodworks when things go bad. I've been riding this wagon come hell or high water. We all have. Anyone who remains a Met fan thru these lean and mismanaged years has every right to whine if that's the way they choose to express themselves. Whats this thread about again? Oh, Harvey. Yea, he's something else, huh?

Turner .7 Duda .6 Buck 1 Tejeda .7 Harvey 2 Carson .2 Atchison .2 Hawkins 1 Lyon 1 Familia 1.5 Rice 1 Marcum .1

MLB.TV still down . Following on CBSsportsline. Reading this game is as painful as watching it.

Great time for MLB.TV to no longer deliver its product to my screen. GAH!

Sheesh, imagine running into Rauch in a dark alley. You see those eyes?

ugh. Yea Keith,lol, now it gets dicey.

He has to get at least one out tho.
