Quote of the Day
“I can’t say enough about my bench. They’ve been doing a good job all year. That’s why I like to get them in the game. I’m always surprised every time I make a change, everyone wants to know, ‘Why?’ They’re a part of my team. These guys are ready to contribute, ready to play.” – […]
Looper: Good Enough?
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. I managed to catch the end of last night’s game and was happy to see some clutch hitting late in the game. It was very nice to see Jose Reyes bunt and end up with a single. He was so quick going to first that even […]
Goodbye, Doug Brien
I just read that the Jets have officially released kicker Doug Brien. This move was inevitable after they drafted kicker Mike Nugent out of Ohio State in the second round in last weekends NFL draft. When Brien missed two key playoff kicks against the Steelers everybody was up in arms and called for is head. […]

Jose Reyes eventually knocked in the game winning run in the 11th inning for a 1-0 victory. Cliff Floyd sat out the game with a strained […]
The List
The guys at Mets Geek have put together The List, a Mets organizational player chart. Every player on every team in the organization is listed at their position. The List even includes coaches. It’s based on The Big Board over at U.S.S. Mariner, a blog about the Seattle Mariners. Good work, guys.
Willie-Ball
Click here for a recap of yesterday’s game. The Mets captured their second win of the season and first at Shea on the day of their home opener. They did so with some scrappy play and a show of character. Stolen bases, bunts and timely hits were featured in this victory. Eleven of the 13 […]
Pedro Delay
Today’s game was delayed in the 6th inning while a revolving billboard in center field showing an ad that included a picture of Pedro Martinez got stuck and wouldn’t go back to black. Looks like Pedro was really hungry to make an appearance at the home opener.
