Cubs: fuld (8), scales, lee, rami, milt, bakeran soto, blanco (6), wells. METS: Pagan, CF Castillo, 2B Wright, 3B Murphy, 1B Francoeur, RF Sullivan, LF Schneider, C Hernandez, SS Pelfrey, P Maine to start against the Phillies in the night half of the double-header. Adam Rubin: Manuel also indicated that Gary Sheffield (back spasms) is "pretty close" to being shut down for the season, and that Carlos Delgado's chances of returning this season are "very slim." Me: Way to go Omar. The Giants offered you something but you wanted more. You said that you had an obligation to filed a competitive team so you declined the offer. You end up getting nothing for Sheffield (who cost you nothing, you paid him nothing, and he won't be back next season) and you don't achieve your goal of fielding a "competitive team."

My dad is taking my uncle and my cousins to the game today. They flew in from Florida.

BNlanco's roberry of Francoeur last inning is as good a shortstop play as you will see. It was absolutely sick.

We'll be seeing that throw for a few days.

Way to go Murphy! I know he's been a disappointment, but I really like Murph. It's too little, too late, but nice to see him getting it together. I hope this can be a learning and growing year, and he does well in 2010.

Ralph, as always, was great. The tall glass of water is a completely different (and effective) pitcher when he throws stikes and picks up the pace. I think he needs a good pitching coach or sports psychologist in the off-season. CSB is shining down on us...I can tell.

Evans fans instead. What did the Giants offer for Sheffield?

Rodriguez seems to have control today.

What the hell is Frankie doing? The guys in the booth think he's hurt.

He started overthrowing, bouncing a lot of two-strike curves.

Fun game. Hard to believe it was the first weekend and first day game I've been to at Citi Field all season. Only noticeable difference is that the out of town scoreboard is a lot more readable during the day than at night. Glad to see Pelfrey get things back together, even if it was against a B-lineup for the Cubs. Though Sullivan loafed it going after Soto's first double but the sliding catch in foul territory in the 8th was nice.

My other ticket was going to be unused and I got lazy. If I knew at least one CPFr was going I might have went. Oh well, kind of a lost season to me anyways.

Sorry we didn't mention it. Actually ran into G-Fafif in the draconian security line.

[quote="Gwreck":9bq7sirm]Sorry we didn't mention it. Actually ran into G-Fafif in the draconian security line.[/quote:9bq7sirm] Twenty-nine games Citi Field this season with a bottle of water and a bottle of diet cola in my bag, each slightly consumed en route. Twenty-seven times security didn't look, didn't care, didn't notice. Twice, today being one of them, a thorough search and removal of the liquids. Draconian? Sometimes. Baffling? Often.

On Friday they searched my camera backpack pretty thoroughly. Maybe they're cracking down for the pennant drive....

[quote="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr"]Is there anyone here who doesn't reflexively cringe when he hears any sort of player move has been made/is being discussed by the Mets FO? |
