Good Win Last Night
With Barry Bonds sitting out with a sinus infection the Mets did exactly what they were supposed to do last night. Beat the opposition when their best player is out of the lineup. And they did so convincingly outscoring the Giants 6-2. Several bright spots included: Steve Trachsel pitched 8 strong innings allowing 5 hits […]
Bonds To Sit Out?
Rumor has it that Barry Bonds will sit out tonight’s game at Shea because of a sinus infection. If this is true then we can look forward to more of the “do you pitch to Bonds?” nonsense in tomorrow’s paper. More importantly it takes a great bat out of the game for the Giants and […]
Bonds Rising
With the San Francisco Giants coming to town to open a three game set today there’s a lot being written in the New York media about Barry Bonds. He’s obviously the cornerstone of the Giants’ lineup as he would be the cornerstone of just about every lineup in baseball history. And rightfully so, I might […]
Blog Maintenance
I made a few improvements to the right sidebar of the blog in the last week or so. I added the calendar to help readers access recent posts easier, a scoreboard under the blog links for live updates and re-arranged the list of blog links to put some of my favorite (and more active) blogs […]

For those who don’t know, Reyes took himself out of his second rehab game last Thursday after tweaking his bad hammy. He underwent an MRI on Friday and it turns out that not only […]
Mets Avoid Weekend Sweep
I was getting ready to write my weekly post about how the Mets got swept over the weekend when I was thrown a curve. They beat San Diego today to avoid the sweep. I didn’t see any of the game today (my family manages to keep me busy most weekends) so I’ll post some stuff […]
How(e)’s That?
I’ve seen some negative things written about Art Howe lately in the media as well as other blogs. I tend to be a bit on the patient side before jumping on the bandwagon especially early in the season. But it seems like now may be as good a time as any to saddle up. Why […]
Update on the Waffles Google Bomb
The Google bomb worked!! As I wrote yesterday, the blog Esoteric * Diatribe is leading a Google bombing to get the #1 search result for the term waffles on Google to be Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry’s homepage. They have succeeded. To see the results click here. Even more interesting is that it now appears […]
