Mets Win In 13th
I sat down to watch the game last night at about 10 minutes to 8:00 pm. The game was already into the fourth inning. I saw Mike Pelfrey retire the last batter of the half inning then SNY cut to a commercial. When the bottom half of the inning started I got comfortable and was […]
Willie Not Only One Who Needs To Go
Looks like Willie Randolph survived the weekend and even got lukewarm votes of confidence from GM Omar Minaya and ownership. That should buy him at least a little time. I’m sure he knows that a vote of confidence with the current feelings around Shea are not much more than a momentary thing. He knows it […]
Tonight’s Lineup
Tonight’s lineup was posted a little while ago. As noted earlier Brian Schneider is back from an injury. Perhaps more notable is that Carlos Delgado is batting in the sixth slot in the order. Delgado has been horrific lately. I’m curious if this is in response to his .208 average with 1 home run or […]
Beltran Powers Mets Past Nats
Carlos Beltran broke out of his shell for his first home run last night en route to the Mets 5-2 win over the Nationals. Beltran’s 3 run shot followed solo homers by Ryan Church and Jose Reyes. Reyes has been on fire the last two games since returning from a minor hamstring injury. He gives […]
Mets Shutout Washington
David Wright hit a homer in his third consecutive game as the Mets beat Washington 6-0 last night. He also hit 2 doubles and drove in 5 runs. But Wright’s exploits were not the only highlights for the Mets. Jose Reyes returned to the lineup and went 4 for 5 with 2 singles, a double […]
Correction: Reyes To Play
Contrary to what I wrote in my last post Jose Reyes will be in the lineup tonight. Furthermore in contrast to what Willie Randolph said yesterday he has dropped Luis Castillo to the 8th slot in the order. Ryan Church will bat second. Moving Castillo down makes sense until he is healthy but I’d rather […]
Sanchez Activated, Reyes Still Sits
In injury news the Mets have activated Duaner Sanchez and optioned Frankie, I mean, Carlos Muniz. And Jose Reyes ran today but as of now is not in tonight’s lineup.
Heilman Blows It, Pagan Wins it
Every season has it’s share of character building games. The Mets had their first one last night against their bitter rivals the Phillies. After Aaron Heilman blew a 3-0 lead the Mets managed to pull off a 12 inning 4-3 victory. Angel Pagan was the hero with 3 hits and the game winning RBI. Jose […]
