This Mets run reminds me of when Piazza was a Met and they would do this.

Benjamin Grimm May 01 2010 11:10 AM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

I'd like to think it's more like when Hernandez and Strawberry were Mets.

Fuckin' hell mets.com! You gave me a heart attack. The front page headline right now reads "Mets deal Majors ERA leader Pelfrey." After CPR, I read further to realize that somehow the headline writer is using the word "deal" to mean "starting today's game" instead of "trading to another team." Jesus H. Christ!!

Edgy DC May 01 2010 11:44 AM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

That is pretty bizarre.

I wouldn't push the guy. You've got a bench for a reason.

Ashie62 May 01 2010 12:57 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Frenchy probably says its' only baseball and I only get hurt during football season. He did get beat up yesterday. That knee to the wall has to be hurting about now.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 01:16 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Mets in order in the first. Is this Halladay guy any good? New York Auto Giant Dot Com! Coming in to the Be-HEST!

G-Fafif May 01 2010 01:21 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

I hate Victorino, though I don't need a Mets-Phillies game to maintain that thought.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 01:22 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

So, if Pagan keeps that ball in front of him, Polanco's ball is a double play (assuming he hits the same ball)?

Good game, classic pitcher's duel. Fwife and Fgirl at a kids birthday party, Fboy and I are rooting for the good guys. LGM!

Edgy DC May 01 2010 02:13 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

So very close to breaking through there.

metsguyinmichigan May 01 2010 02:14 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

We keep getting chances!

Fman99 May 01 2010 02:16 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

First and second, no out after the Reyes drop. Let's turn three.

metsguyinmichigan May 01 2010 02:17 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

A K and a DP would be cool!

metsguyinmichigan May 01 2010 02:18 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

And there goes the streak.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 02:18 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Damn greasy popups.

Fman99 May 01 2010 02:18 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Ugh, another dropped pop up. 1-0 Dickheads.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr May 01 2010 02:20 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Well, to be fair, that would have been a highlight-reeler had he made it. But, yes, damn. Plus, if Cora had held on, he might have turned three on that.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr May 01 2010 02:24 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

McCarver said "elegant competitor." Do we have to chug our drink, or is that just a sip?

[quote="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr":ra0iueb6]McCarver said "elegant competitor." Do we have to chug our drink, or is that just a sip?[/quote:ra0iueb6] He really needs a good slap, they both do. Really.

Take THAT, says Pagan!!

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr May 01 2010 02:27 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Should have whapped Roy-Malachi on the wrist there.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 02:30 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

That's a crooked number.

Nymr83 May 01 2010 02:31 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

well the Mets squandered chances and are now down 6-0, its likely over with the complete game machine on the mound

G-Fafif May 01 2010 02:32 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Let's start getting it back!

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr May 01 2010 02:36 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Um... Pelf isn't tired. Why the hell do you pull him with a six-run deficit after just 4 innings and 80 pitches?

Kong76 May 01 2010 02:48 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

I guess they were due for a shellackin', just wish the ride didn't end with two on and a hard hit ball that almost knocked Utley over.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 02:49 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

This looks like a hard game to give a PotG score to.

metirish May 01 2010 02:49 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

As so often happens in these cases the highly touted and anticipated pitchers never did happen.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 02:52 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

[quote="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr"]Um... Pelf isn't tired. Why the hell do you pull him with a six-run deficit after just 4 innings and 80 pitches?

Perhaps because a lot of pitches in one inning can be also be damaging, and because he's shown himself to be ineffective and needed a new perspective. I mean, there's certainly plenty of precedent for removing a guy after a disatrous inning, and his turn had come in the lineup, and the manager has an obligaton to try and bat his team back into the game.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr May 01 2010 02:57 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Halladay's getting the Jordan treatment from the umps now (as Wright gets the umpire jumping down his throat for questioning a call). That bitching after the top of the fourth seems to have worked. I'm not saying the Pelf hook is without precedent-- I just think it's wrong. I also think I'd swallow the "hitting their way back into it" rationale for pulling Pelf a bit easier if Sargelet weren't hitting like Pelf-with-an-inner-ear-infection.

Edgy DC May 01 2010 03:20 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Matthews is on the roster. If they have to keep him out of a 6-0 game because he's not hitting well, what's the point? No repurcussions will come from getting Pelfrey out of the game.

G-Fafif May 01 2010 03:23 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Subtract Gary Matthews from the Mets Whose Met Tenures Ended in April list. Darn it.

Ineffective effort today. Howie kept saying Wright was coming up without realizing Tatis had replaced him the inning before.

G-Fafif May 01 2010 03:41 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

It was Still Early when we were winning, it's Still Early today.

[quote="Edgy DC":3fq2hdve]Ineffective effort today.

You really have to wonder about the management over at WFAN, and what kind of team they're running.

Frayed Knot May 01 2010 04:41 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

This is one of those games where I invoke my adage that if you're going to not hit, and going to not pitch, and going to not field, you might as well not do them all at the same time. An occasional one of these is better than the games where you beat yourself up playing the 'what if' game with a handful of plays. Yeah, if Reyes & Cora hold onto those little flares there in the 4th maybe the whole thing plays out differently but, then again, we'd still have to score at some point. The handful of balls we did hit hard mostly ended up as at'em balls. And oh yeah ... IMPEACH ASHIE!

Gwreck May 01 2010 04:49 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Whoops...guess l chose the wrong game to go to Philly. Was surprised to see a paucity of Mets fans at this one, even with ticket scarcity/prices being what the are.

Fman99 May 01 2010 07:45 PM Re: Mayday I.G.T. 5/1 Mets @ Phillies 3:10

Like Robert Redford, this game got ugly in a hurry.
