    Verducci said in that article where he worked as an ump that only four calls were wrong all year at first last year. Well I saw that game at Washington. I guess this is five for this year.

    A swinging bunt for a hit that would've gone foul. But on the other hand the runner was out clearly. Like ridiculously clearly.

    I'd much rather have Valentin in left, Gotay at second.

None of Reyes's three mattered in the end and the two CS (particularly the first) may have killed at least one run. The bunt hits were nice though. OTOH, they did get the one run, which was what they needed to win. And the way they're hitting the two CS may not have scored anyway.

    Kid, that's a great f-ing avatar Gomez makes that play in right. Oh well.

It sounds like WWSB hinted that he would bat Beltran 2 They have a podcast. http://www.wfan.com/ Mike: "Far be it for me to make your lineup out for ya, but I like to see Beltran bat second a little bit." [cackling] WWSB: "One of you guys might look smart before the day's over" I heard that as an insult, not a compliment, more like "One of you guys might have a smart idea some day," so I misinterpreted it. It's going to be hard to take any of your reports on Willie seriously from here on in.

It's called discussion. Don't say "Give it up." That's just being a dick.

    Am I the only one who likes going to see teams at Shea that rarely get there? Is it just the old folks who don't like IL play or is it everyone?

    Gomez made two great catches on 6/8, neither of which Green makes.

    Iubitul wrote: I think Aluminum bats play a part in this. These kids are taught at a young age to throw different pitches in an attempt to miss the bat - so instead of just building up arm strength and stamina at a formative age, they are putting more stress on their arms by attempting to throw pitches that their arms are not fully ready to handle. I don't think this is due to aluminum bats. Would the kids stop if they were facing wood bats?

    I am very strongly against Sosa getting only 3 points for the 6/8 game. That's crazy-low. And part of why pitchers will never win a Schaefer PotY.

    My bad. You do a great job with these.

    Omar

    Elster88 posted a topic in New York Mets Talk

    Do we have an Omar thread yet? Can someone explain to me how he does it? Schoeneweis aside. I post this after the Sosa start in Detroit. And I thought any move that Omar made to bring a Sosa to Mets would suck.
