I guess Manuel was serious about playing Wright every other day. Otherwise its the usual shit on a shingle tonight

Memo to Mets outfielders: Wear your roller skates tonight. I have a feelin'. Later

Following teammate David Wright, Francoeur has secured new larger equipment to prevent further injury.

Kong76 Sep 02 2009 06:56 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

I'd buy that glove if there was one on ebay. Did the game start late? It's almost 9:00 and I just started paying attention and it's the bottom of the first? (and one HR as I'm typing)

Edgy DC Sep 02 2009 07:19 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Great.

Kong76 Sep 02 2009 07:40 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

What?

The highlight of my night now is seeing the "Dos Equis" guy. Stay thirsty, my friends.

Kong76 Sep 02 2009 07:56 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

FK: 8:40 starting time <<< I was thinking 8:30 and a half hour first inning. I feel like Keith for a brief moment. Zooop, it's gone.

Hey, Kong. That redirect link isn't working. There's a space in there, I think, giving folks a %22 in the URL string.

Frayed Knot Sep 02 2009 08:08 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Since I was crawling all over Pagan's bone-headedness last night I feel obligated to give him his due for that play to end the last inning. Nice player but jeez is he an idiot baserunner.

PiggiesTomatoes Sep 02 2009 08:09 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Nice get by Pagan and two nice throws to get Gonzalez at the plate. That was great to see.

Kong76 Sep 02 2009 08:16 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

EDC: Hey, Kong. That redirect link isn't working. There's a space in there, I think, giving folks a %22 in the URL string. I have no idea what you're talking about.

Sorry. Check your PMs up top.

Kong76 Sep 02 2009 08:22 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

I have no PM's. I do have email :-)

Frayed Knot Sep 02 2009 08:31 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

And how about Timmy Redding holding his own here?

metsguyinmichigan Sep 02 2009 08:33 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Redding's had a couple decent games in his last couple starts. We're sure it's him, right?

Edgy DC Sep 02 2009 08:37 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Great bunt. Love to see the push bunt. Prefer when the Mets do it.

Edgy DC Sep 02 2009 08:39 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Welcome back, Pedro.

2009: The Year of the Sacrifice Bunt. We ended up sacrificing our whole roster.

PiggiesTomatoes Sep 02 2009 08:49 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Nobody holds his own like Timmy. ;-)

Edgy DC Sep 02 2009 09:04 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Well, that had almost been a game.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 02 2009 09:15 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Ain't scoring enough.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 02 2009 09:21 PM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Put in the books. The Book of Sucky Fuckface Bastard Assclown Games.

Frayed Knot Sep 03 2009 07:19 AM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

This is the second game - well, it's about the millionth really but second one recently - where the "real" save was in the 8th inning; tie game on the road, middle of their order coming up; got to shut 'em down NOW or else you're in trouble, etc. The Misch-v-Cubs games was the other I'm thinking of from just this past week. Anyway, it's a situation that cries out for using Frankie Rodriguez in that spot rather than "saving him" for the lead which may never - and in both cases DID never - materialize. Of course he eventually DID go to him last night but the horse was already out of the barn at that point. Now I know it's tough to blame Jerry solely for it because we all know that every single manager in MLB would play it the exact same way: managing by the 'save rule', and, yeah, the real culprit was not scoring enough runs, but jeez it would be nice to see some time.

Edgy DC Sep 03 2009 07:33 AM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

I've been broken, and I've gotten to the point where I do blame Jerry. He had as broad a talent base as any bullpen should have, and he frittered it away trying to build a bridge to ninth-inning glory for Rodriguez that never came.

Frayed Knot Sep 03 2009 07:38 AM Re: IGT--Mets @ Rockies, 09/02/09

Well, sure, blame him, it is his call after all. Just don't delude yourself into thinking that changing the manager would make a difference.

Nothing is beneath me. Meanwhile the younger folks here are reading that and saying ... Fotomat?!?
