  1. I think the Mets should trade Heilman, Ishii and Glavine for Guerrero and Colon.
  2. ]but New York sent a scout to Arlington to watch Soriano over the weekend. Is this really necessary with MLB TV?
  3. ]contrasted that to Pedro, who would have been out there doing a splashy dance in the puddles. I need that laughing emoticon. This concept is amusing at 10:00 AM too.
  4. ]Then I remembered we don't really have a fourth outfielder.Maybe Woody could fill in?

  6. I'm pooped. Curse you rain delay.
  7. Santiago getting the call in the seventh. Still 5-3 Mountains.
  8. I'd rather have Kent than Soriano. He can play first for the rest of this year, and we can try to get rid of Kazuo (sorry Kaz) in the offseason, and then put him at second for next year. We can go out and get a big bat for first for next year.Gives us some breathing room to try to get rid of our logjam in the middle infield in the offseason. Instead of either having to clear out that mess before the deadline (or being forced to have two second basemen on the bench), we can put Kent at first and still improve our offense. I guess I'm less into this if Kaz is really out for the season.Of course, I still wouldn't give up young talent or minor leaguers. I would spend more of Fred's money though.
  9. Prior to Cammie nearly inside-outing a homer, Reyes beat out a routine grounder to shortstop. The guy can fucking fly, but I'm still waiting for his hamstring to come flying off and be trailing behind him one day.Something else that was unusual but amusing when I was away from the comp:The batter camera caught a great shot of a moth flying in front of the catcher and ump, crossing home plate from right to left looking from the mound, and straight into Minky's eye. Slo-mo and everything. That might be on SportsCenter tomorrow.
  10. Gary Carter came in first as a seven year old in the inaugural season of the Punt, Pass, and Kick Competition
  11. Looks to be raining hard. I was going to try to tough out the game tonight, but I dunno now.
  12. Don't these new-fangled stadia all have domes?
  13. I guess it's raining.
  14. It all depends on the deal. I wouldn't touch a single player in the farm system, but I'd trade one of the excess starters for him.
  15. I don't see how anyone could leave a game early under any circumstances. My one early leave was the second game of a double header. I left that one because I had school the next day, and my dad said so.I might even stick around and watch the opposing team celebrate, even if it is celebrating a championship against my team. I've always wanted to see one of those pile-ons.I have heard disturbing tales from people who caught Game 5 in 2000 though.
  16. They probably lie and say they were there in their seats the entire time.
  17. I thought it was okay, in a turn your brain off and watch sort of way.

  19. Benson 5.5Piazza 4.5IP, you should tell MiniKnight to post his Schaefer votes, too.
  20. I don't think Kent likes anyplace or anyone. Maybe with Dallas gone he would be more amenable.
  21. This is a very, very, very minor gripe. Why not choose someone else instead of Heilman for the ninth, seeing as how Heilman is the long man and we're going to Colorado?
  22. [url]http://newyork.mets.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20050724&content_id=1143683&vkey=news_nym&fext=.jsp&c_id=nym[/url]This article details a rumor that the Mets are interested in bringing back Jeff Kent. It's from nymets.com.
  23. Houston wins over Washington 4-1 in 14.Atlanta loses to Arizona 3-2Yankees win 4-1.Philadelphia takes their turn at sweeping the Padres.
  24. A Boy Named Seo is listed at the bottom of the home page as the newest member. Looks like he found his way here.
  25. Bret Sabermetric wrote:="Elster88"]I think the difference here is that KC posted it onceOf course you do.I'm assuming this is a way of being derisive while totally ignoring my point. So much for trying to stick an objective nose in.
