That article certainly makes me feel better about the Benson deal last year.
-
Pedro blew him away. Can we get the man a win? I doubt it with the pitcher coming in.
-
Either the throws are just slow, or they are stealing off Pedro, because that was another good throw. Stolen base.
-
Cameron caught the ball with two hands. As he went to pull it out of his glove it dropped, and the hitter is ruled safe. WTF.
-
Lidge warming up. We ain't scoring in the ninth.
-
Walk.Stolen base, Piazza made a strong through. Runner on 2nd, no out. I'm nervous.Fly out to straight center.Hard single to right. Runner holds at third.Bunt, putout at first. Runner scores. 2-2. Runner at 2nd, two out.Flyout to left.I want Pedro to get a W. Floyd, Wright, Piazza coming up.

Jimmy Qualls's son, Chad, starting the seventh.And Cairo, the first batter, hits one about one foot over the fence. Nice. 2-1. Can I get a kaboom?
-
Can we get some runs off the scrub AAA injury call up????? Pedro Martinez vs. Scrub???? Please can we win this fucking game????
-
I'd rather have Huff than Soriano. I really don't think Valent can carry Huff's jock.
-
Home run by RandomAstro. 1-1.

And he seems to have finally turned a corner this year. I mean, Zambrano's been effective for us this year, but I STILL don't think it's sustainable.I dunno. I wonder if Heilman really has turned a corner. How many total starts does he even have? He's been fairly mediocre overall, no?
-
I think Sele deserves a NO WAY.
-
If we get Manny, then I would do the Cameron for Soriano trade. 'Course, it has to go the other way around.

I'd guess that both are a product of the times though, as are Maddux and Glavine to a lesser extent.

Pedro looks different in that picture.I remember Roger McDowell getting his sleeves trimmed because they were orange.

According to the Newark Star-Ledger, both the Yankees and Mets are likely to take a look at reliever Ricky Bottalico, who was designated for assignment by Milwaukee on Wednesday. Bottallico is 2-2 with a 4.54 ERA in 41 2/3 innings this season.

ESPN.com has the same thing that MFS's article had, plus a second paragraph.]Second helpingJul 28 - According to Newark Star-Ledger, the Rangers have decided to move Alfonso Soriano, and the Mets are working hard to get him. Trade discussions have focused on Mets right-hander Aaron Heilman and Double-A Binghampton right-hander Yusmeiro Petit, but the Mets might prefer to deal right-hander Victor Zambrano rather than Heilman. Another scenario that surfaced involved a three-way deal involving the Mets, Rangers and Reds that would send both Soriano and Sean Casey to the Mets with a package of prospects going to the other two clubs, Newsday reports. The Mets would assume considerable salary in that trade, not only for this season but 2006 as well. Soriano already earns $7.5 million this year and will get a big raise through arbitration. Casey is currently making $7.8 million and the Reds have picked up his $8.5-million option for next year.

DAMMIT! LEAVE THE FARM SYSTEM ALONE!I'm surprised that the Mets would rather deal Zambrano than Heilman.
-
]When the Astros offered him $75 million over five years, a National League general manager said: "That's a fair offer. That's what we're willing to pay him."Beltran treated that offer as if it were minimum wage. After all, Vladimir Guerrero had signed with the Angels for $75 million.Boras let the Astros know that Beltran was a far better player than Guerrero. Except that he's not. He's not nearly as good.Sing it, sister.

Not to mention, how come they didn't catch any colds when they were here the first time?

5 stars.

Floyd doubles deep into center, one hops the wall.Wright hit a chopper to the mound and....Floyd was caught off second, and stood still as the pitcher ran at him. Finally, as the pitcher almost reached him, he deked him to second and ran to third, making the rundown last long enough so Wright could get to second. Nice job by both of them so there was no damage except for replacing the runner with slower legs (and the out of course).Actually, how fast is Wright?
