  1. At the end of the day the previous signings should have little to do with this anyway.
  2. By saying he's not campaigning for Willie's job, he is in fact campaigning for Willie's job.
  3. Our recent free-agent signings have gone pretty well, no? I think Pedro was worth it if you buy the "he made other free agents know the Mets were building a winner." Especially since it's not my money. Texiera: 2003, 23 y.o., 102 OPS+ 2004, 24 y.o., 131 OPS+ 2005, 25 y.o., 144 OPS+ 2006, 26 y.o., 126 OPS+ 2007, 27 y.o., 150 OPS+ 2008, 28 y.o., 111 OPS+ Career: .285 BA, .370 OBP, .532 SLG, 129 OPS+ And we need a first baseman. Atlanta's failure to resign him to this point is irrelevant
  4. This surprised me: 2008 Salaries RK PLAYER SALARY (US$) 1 Carlos Beltran 18,622,809 2 Johan Santana 16,984,216 3 Carlos Delgado 16,000,000 4 Pedro Martinez 11,813,351 Does Delgado come off the books next year too? Is that almost 28 million for next year? I want Texiera.
  5. I never yelled
  6. A grove of maple trees in Upper Sascatchewan is getting sued.
  7. Santana 4 Church 2.5 Wright 2 Beltran 1.5

You see Mets hats, and Keith Fucking Hernandez shirts, and Russ Martin shirts for the Dodger fans, and Ricky Fucking Otero shirts. (Yes, I saw one yesterday afternoon.) Those are Mets fans, Jon & Joe. Mets fans. I know... stunning! Mets fans?!? In New York!?! But this is Yankee Country! These must all be Joe Torre fans! It has nothing at all to do with the last year of the ballpark, or Johan Santana pitching, or the fact that the team has won 4 out of 5, or because we all have man-crushes on David Wright. It's all Joe Fucking Torre. DAMMIT, fellas. You made it until the ninth inning, then set me off. Nice rant. Put it in the Morgan and Miller thread.
  9. Eh. I disagree.
  10. They can make a two hour game seem like a five hour game!
  11. Tatis was 6 for his first 14. 3 for his last 18. 9 for 32 overall.

  14. Vic, you should know I got hired as a film critic and have been passing your posts off as my own work. Great stuff.
  15. Church with a lazy pop fly in his first at-bat back. Got to the track but he kinda hit it straight up.
  16. Remeber that Verducci article where he said the umps got a total of four calls wrong at first for an entire year? The day after I read that article was the Washington game that had four blown calls at first. Since then it feels like I've seen three games where there HASN'T been a blown call at first. Carlos Delgado, warning track power.
  17. Slide please Reyes. Beltran was telling him stay to the right. Willie tried to sternly tell Reyes but Reyes walked right by him.
  18. Reyes is going to hurt himself.
  19. I'm really not in the mood for Morgan and Miller. Morgan so far on Santana: Not effective against slap hitters. Velocity down. Not throwing sliders as much. Gives up too many home runs. Maybe those are all true.
  20. I like the way Chavez plays the outfield.
  21. Yes. I was disagreeing that it is "hard to call" Torre a Yankee. It's not.
