Can you be ready to bat first but not ready to bat third? How about second, does the level of readiness there fall in between that of first and third or does it not work that way?
|
Edgy DC Apr 15 2010 12:11 PM Re: Tax the Rockies Staff - IGT 4/15/2010 NYM @ COL |
I don't think he's ready to fail while batting third, which is a disappointing thought.

Trying to get reacclimated before being piled on with added expectations by his 'manager'? And obviously not second. Second is solely for bunting (reinforced by the idea that Pagan 8th is practice for leadoff) and that's totally different.

[quote="HahnSolo":645s7h3s]I see they got Pelf on a balk. Please tell me it wasn;t one of those "falling off the mound" balks.[/quote:645s7h3s] Gravity is hard. No "first balk" in the Met Firsts rundown, right? Figures.

Tatis isn't the one hlding down Carter's spot. Jacobs is.

He was in mid-windup when the batter started to step out. The ump wasn't granting him time but when Pelfrey saw him backing out he stopped his motion as though time had been called.

6 IP of shutout ball, 5 K, 4 H, 0 BB. Pitch-ing?

Pelf tells Ian O'Connor: "Get inside my head, you Yankee-lovin' fool!"

I'm optimistic about him this season...and that's something.

Heard Howie on the radio saying that no matter the score, Frankie Rodriguez is likely to pitch today, because he hasn't pitched since Sunday and he needs regular work. Grrrrr.... He should have been pitching yesterday!

PedroDos gets his PedroDoble, and we're out of the 8th. Normal costs aside, when all's said and done, Met-career-wise, what's to stop a fella from buying a Pedro Feliciano jersey?

What's that? Losing streak over? First successful IGT in nearly a week?

Clutch performance by Pelf. Very impressive. On the post-game, Castillo told Ed that before the season, he told Pelfrey that if he won 15 games, he would buy him a watch. 2 down, 13 to go. Howie laughed and said that this was a great marketing opportunity for the Mets. AdamRubinESPN Mets first shutout in Denver in 71 games in franchise history in the city.
