I somehow missed Cora's activation. (Was he available for last night's game?) Who went away to make room for him? Was it Valdez?

Cora up, Pagan DL

G-Fafif Jun 03 2009 02:29 PM

Cora! Cora! Cora! (If he were an MFY, I assume Sterling would be all over that one.)

In short, IF: Cora in; RMartinez out OF: Brown in; Pagan out Also, Ohlendorf's a Princeton ninny. The gentleman in me tips my hat to a guy who earned his engineering degree while laboring in the D-Back farm system, while the Quaker in me says, "Fuck that noise-- stuff that eating-club-eatin' muthafucka."

G-Fafif Jun 03 2009 02:32 PM

That's Emil Brown, not, as I instinctively suspected, Leon "Motor" Brown.

Benjamin Grimm Jun 03 2009 02:32 PM

That sounds more Mennonite than Quaker.

My analrapist would have a field day with that.

FREE With Purchase of Any Other Book (or magazine). Love it. I saw the prop version of that book on eBay once for like a billion dollars.

I'd try to get Sheffield a rest.

Rained out

G-Fafif Jun 03 2009 03:45 PM

And it was such a promising thread, too.

The Mets make this one up on 7/2 at 12:35.

Fman99 Jun 03 2009 07:42 PM

Hope he bought you a drink first.

="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr"] My analrapist would have a field day with that. Come on!

Hey! It's Job Bluth!

Surprised that there's not a doubleheader today, since the Mets don't have a scheduled return to Pittsburgh. Neither team has to travel far after the game. The Mets are off to Washington and the Pirates are headed to Houston.

This game is being made up on July 2nd. Off day for the Mets; they'll be on the road between Milwaukee and Philadelphia.

The Mets are off to Washington and the Pirates are headed to Houston. I thought that as well then wondered if its b/c the Mets are considered a 'draw' in Pittsburgh and they didn't want to give up the gate on weekday as opposed to a week night. That's if it is rescheduled as a night game.
