Jose Reyes – SS Angel Pagan – LF David Wright – 3B Carlos Beltran – CF Jeff Francoeur – RF Mike Hessman – 1B Henry Blanco – C Luis Castillo – 2B Jonathon Niese – LHP Lefty starter for the Stros, so the Hessman part of the 1B platoon.

It's Houston Hessman Homer night ... Guaranteed!

Way to leave out the "GO," everybody. What, we go on the road and we forgot how to do an IGT? /overturns pregame spread You gotta be kidding me with this shit.

I'm not a big F. Martinez fan but why isn't he playing instead of Francoeur? Is there anything about Francoeur that we don't know? Let's see what Fernando can do.

Zvon Aug 16 2010 04:17 PM Re: IGT - Mets in the former Enron Field - 8/16

This seasons schedule has been the strangest I've ever seen. I usually don't pay much attention to that kind of thing but this season the fact keeps hitting me over the head.

Edgy DC Aug 16 2010 05:30 PM Re: IGT - Mets in the former Enron Field - 8/16

I'm OK with Francoeur playing against lefties and only lefties until September.

Three righties coming up, middle of the order. Who gets the ball in the eighth?

Niese wasn't really expecting to get a second run out of his offense, was he?

Dessens, with Parnell and Feliciano in reserve.

Edgy DC Aug 16 2010 08:35 PM Re: IGT - Mets in the former Enron Field - 8/16

Pretty funny that they're doing it against one of the guys that might have eventually come to close for them had they not been so set to drop big buckage on established veteran name-brands.

We got Jason Vargas (who is having a very decent season for Seattle this year) from the Marlins for him.

Edgy DC Aug 16 2010 08:38 PM Re: IGT - Mets in the former Enron Field - 8/16

Not sure if I like this move. Blanco's probably more likely to hit the deep fly. Thole's more likely to hit it on the ground, but also more likely to pull the walk.

Hisanori with ... A Perfect Save !!!! Meanwhile, teams with supposed real closers are blowing up shit all over the place. Dodgers cough up 4 in the 9th and lose to the Braves. And now Valverde of Detroit is doing his best to blow a 3-0 9th inning lead in da Bronx. (and, yes, the Yanqui game which started an hour earlier than ours with the same number of runs scored is still going).

Classic. Valverde couldn't throw a strike to save his life and was working on an extra-hard 4-out save, since he also struggled to get the final out in the 8th. Guillen took a good hard dirty slide from Gardner turning the DP.
