  2. So what's the new record for oldest man to steal a base?
  3. Nine pitches before the single. He's my favorite Franco on the Mets this year.
  4. Rowand has a .976 fielding percentage this year.
  5. Yancy Street Gang wrote: Maybe not. He's due to bat in the 9th. If Castro gets on, I'd let Sanchez stay in to bunt. Didn't he look awful trying to bunt earlier this year. Or am I misremembering?
  6. I missed that post. Not thieving, just unoriginal. Yanquis down 6-4 in the bottom of the eighth. Edit: Now top 9th.
  7. Good. He needed the rest.
  8. Holy shit. I got back to my computer about 20 minutes ago. And since then I've been reading it as a 5-4 Philly lead.
  9. Yancy Street Gang wrote: I don't really like a plan that involves three pitchers protecting a one-run lead over three innings. Do you mean one-run deficit?
  10. Hopefully Marrero will make me eat those words. They will taste good with ketchup.
  11. I'm all for punishing the wicked, and I don't think that Milledge is a .300 hitter yet, but maybe the best day to put in Marrero is not the same day that Woody and Castry get starts.
  12. Believe it or not, not a lot of offense today. 3 of the runs came on one swing.
  13. Who's their closer again?
  14. Agreed. And he's only been here 2 weeks, and already there's a decent number of things.

  16. [u:02d214abe8]TRAXXX:[/u:02d214abe8] 4/7, 6 IP, 1 R 4/20, 6 IP, 2 R 4/25, 6 IP, 1 R 5/17, 7 IP, 1 R 6/4, 7 IP, 1 R
  17. Johnny Dickshot wrote: what would be only his 2nd Quality Start . That can't be right.
  18. Stevie at 71 pitches through 4. My prediction of 7 IP, 2-3 runs may not hold up.

  20. Actually you're almost definitely older than me. I'm one of the younger CPFers, as can be told by my rude behavior and my penchant for loud music.
  21. Son. Let the kid at least try AAA before we bring him to the majors. We're 41-23.

Edgy's line would have been funny if it weren't so in character for Leo to do something like that. Later The post as a whole though...the mental image of Willie brandishing a revolver with the face he makes whenever Chris Russo asks him a question, combined with the mental image of a poor, old, senile Ralph still only able to relate it to something from fifty years ago. Edgy gets post of the day.
  23. Willets Point wrote: ="Elster88"]Definition 2 seems to be what he was going for. I think he knows what it meant, Inigo. I know Edgy knows, he's a copy editor fer chrissake. I just figure the sports radio & tv guys who throw the word around probably don't have a clue. I know you know he knows. I just wanted to call you Inigo.
  24. Definition 2 seems to be what he was going for. I think he knows what it meant, Inigo.
