Valadius Jul 30 2009 09:00 PM

"Asps. Very dangerous. You go first."

Valadius Jul 30 2009 09:18 PM

You must... believe.

Methead Jul 30 2009 10:01 PM

I wish they'd play this on the big screen, like that clip from Network about opening the window, sticking your head out, and yelling....

What's the delay?

We had rain earlier in DC, but it wasn't too bad.

Valadius Jul 31 2009 06:08 PM

And game on. Drew grounds out.

Valadius Jul 31 2009 06:10 PM

Livan gets through a lightning-quick first inning - 10 pitches, 9 of them strikes.

Valadius Jul 31 2009 06:25 PM

Reynolds homers, 1-0 'Zona Asps.

Valadius Jul 31 2009 06:27 PM

Chris Young's strikeout to end the inning takes him below the Mendoza Line.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Jul 31 2009 06:36 PM

Top o' the foul pole t'ya! Murph ties it with a shot down the RF line off the Trachselian lefty Davis.

Valadius Jul 31 2009 06:41 PM

It's about time he hit a freaking homer.

Edgy DC Jul 31 2009 06:48 PM

About time? Tough crowd. Cool to hear an astronaut with a Noo York accent. "You know? Zee-ro gravity? No big whoop."

Edgy DC Jul 31 2009 06:56 PM

If your fastball is so meaty, keep it off the plate.

Ashie62 Jul 31 2009 07:09 PM

The winning streak is slipping from memory

Valadius Jul 31 2009 07:16 PM

You must believe, boy. You must... believe.

Ashie62 Jul 31 2009 07:18 PM

Reyes...that's not good..Would you shut him down for a long rehab in a couple of weeks if Mets are still out of it or prolong this?

Valadius Jul 31 2009 07:22 PM

What are you talking about?

KABOOM

Valadius Jul 31 2009 07:35 PM

I really would like it if Wright manages to get at least 20 homers by the end of the year.

Expensive field level seats look pretty empty tonight.

Fuckity.

Edgy DC Jul 31 2009 08:53 PM

Very strange to not see the Snakes guarding the lines in the ninth. I want to exploit that choice.

Fman99 Jul 31 2009 08:53 PM

WOW. Big muff by Reynolds. SNY had actually put the 2nd out on the screen before he borked it.

Fman99 Jul 31 2009 08:54 PM

Not that it matters.

Edgy DC Jul 31 2009 08:55 PM

Maybe it'll take a drop to cancel the curse of the drop.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 31 2009 09:52 PM

Same old SHaMs. Nice night once the rain stopped. We need someone more threatening than Angel Berroa to send up there in that situation. If it means running the same two bullpen guys out for yet another night, why bother, they're going to screw up one of these nights. Cora despite reaching twice doesn't look capable even of hitting the ball hard anymore.

Gwreck Jul 31 2009 10:03 PM

Hernandez actually has a higher batting average than Berroa. If you've really got to go to the PH there, at least use Reed or Sullivan, lefty-lefty be damned.

If we have this rubber-armed vet pitcher who is known to be able to occasionally fake it with the bat, why lift him after 81 pitches just to turn the bat over to Angel Berroa (who is also faking), and the mound over to the same beaten-down guys? The season with Sean Green: Use him sparingly until he gets good. Use him aggressively until he gets bad. Repeat until fired.

I believe that is the Mets attitude towards relief pitching in general. The only way to remain successful is to be one of those guys who can get it done 5 nights in a row like Turk Wendell.
