    Resign him? I'm willing to spend a lot of Fred's money next year. Look at the contracts that got signed this past offseason --- pitching's expensive. Money's coming off the books in 2009.

    huge?

    This game just further illustrates that we can't hit. Two big swings scored all the runs. Not good.

    Wright getting a lot more love than Delgado in the 8/8 game. Unless I missed some plays in the field, they did the exact same thing, except Wright's big swing happened with a runner on base.

    Looking just at the numbers, Heilman over Wags doesn't make sense either. I haven't been voting enough either.

    I wonder if Kaz Matsui would pass waivers.

    I would've loved to have Nady back. Even if he's not really a .325 hitter, he's a nice player. Definitely an upgrade over the Chavez/Anderson/Evans/Tatis combo.

    In 2006 Carlos Beltran scored 127 runs, which is the MOST IN MET HISTORY. That year he had 95 of the walks that some illiterates loathe (5th most in Met history, Straw and Keef are tied for 2nd with 97). That's the same season he had the 5th most RBI in Met history. I can't imagine how he could've driven all those runs in when he was busy walking so much and letting everyone else do the dirty work. Someone please make sense of this for me. Home runs count double in the below numbers, but they still speak for themselves. Well hopefully they do. From 2006 through 2008: Beltran: 281 Runs, 296 RBI Wright: 274 Runs, 299 RBI Reyes: 312 Runs, 181 RBI If you include Beltran's below average 2005 year (the year he played with a broken face after butting heads with Mike Cameron --- what a pussy, the guy obviously has no heart and desire to win, all he wants is to pad his stats): Wright: 373 Runs, 401 RBI Beltran: 363 Runs, 374 RBI Reyes: 411 Runs, 239 RBI

In 2006 Carlos Beltran had 116 RBI. That number is tied for 5th most in Mets history. In 2007 he had 112 RBI, 9th most in Met history. Both times he led the team that year (tied with Wright in 2006). This year he has 68 RBI, second behind Wright and on pace for 111 (which would be the 11th most in Met history). He currently has 374 RBI as a Met, which is 13th most in Met history, despite this being his 4th season with the Mets. Joe Beningo will be back from vacation next week. He will be happy to hate on Beltran with anyone. On the other hand, literates have a clue what they are talking about.

    I can live with splitting the four games. When you're playing a contest of who can hit the most pop flies to the outfield just do your best and get the hell out of there. The Reds would win 65 games if they had a normal stadium.

    Muniz pitched half as many innings but ends up with the same number of points.
