I haven't started one in awhile so I'm jumpin' on it NOW!!!!

Mets "startling" lineup as the e-mail subject line from their PR folks put it: Jose Reyes – SS Angel Pagan – RF Carlos Beltran – CF David Wright – 3B Ike Davis – 1B Lucas Duda – LF Josh Thole – C Luis Hernandez – 2B Dillon Gee - P Not that startling, actually.

G-Fafif Sep 18 2010 02:02 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

And those other bastards: Infante 2B Heyward RF Prado 3B McCann C Lee 1B McLouth CF Gonzalez SS Diaz LF Hudson P

Zvon Sep 18 2010 02:23 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Wrong Tim. Pagan would not have been out if Hudson hit him in the back. Of course it's certainly possible the ump would have blown that call if it did. Jerry must love Angel and his bunting ability. Drive him in David.

Zvon Sep 18 2010 02:35 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Gee gives up a first inning run :( Lee singles, McLouth doubles him in.

Ashie62 Sep 18 2010 02:37 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

An I.G.T. for the hardcore only.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 02:38 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

MONGO OFF INTERSTATE NOW! HIT EVERYTHING IN SIGHT, HE DOES! Thole singles, putting leg-men at 1st and 3rd with one down. Might we be getting a stew going here?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 02:47 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

No, no we most assuredly aren't.

Zvon Sep 18 2010 02:48 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

With one out Duda does da double ding, Thole singles him to third, and there he strands as Hernandez and Gee wiff to end the inning. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Edgy DC Sep 18 2010 02:54 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Mets.com's headline: Dillon geeked up to play spoiler role in third MLB start Huh?

Zvon Sep 18 2010 02:56 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Jose ties it!

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 02:57 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Writers should check name pronunciation before getting punny. So as to get something more accurate, like, JOSE REY-PED! HUDSON GIVES IT UP ON SCREAMER INTO THE RIGHT FIELD SEATS!

Zvon Sep 18 2010 03:08 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

I'd love to see the Braves strand a guy on 3rd after getting a guy there with no out. Other teams do this too, right?

Zvon Sep 18 2010 03:10 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Oy. Why did I even say anything ><

G-Fafif Sep 18 2010 03:16 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

I hope to see Jose GET NAKED before this season ends. The Zvon version, not the actual disrobing.

I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW

YA BEEN KIRKED!

Zvon Sep 18 2010 03:28 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

HERNANDEZ! WOW, that was the most interesting homer of the year. Now I'm guessing Hernandez is out for the rest of the season with a fractured foot.

Frayed Knot Sep 18 2010 03:31 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

I think Luis's time around the bases still beat ARod's time from last night - of course Luis didn't immediately pause and look towards the dugout for his standard 'check me out' smirk.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 03:45 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

More Trachsel-on-speed than Reeder II, but Gee's having hisself a tidy game. I'd gladly sign on for a year of this at the back end.

G-Fafif Sep 18 2010 03:54 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Luis still beat Darryl Strawberry's time after homering of Al Nipper.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 04:05 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

The Fox team is hoping to get an updated, semi-accurate diagnosis about Luis Hernandez from the Mets trainers before game's end. That's adorable.

Frayed Knot Sep 18 2010 04:07 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Tim McC: 'if Bobby Cox were a football coach about 98% of his players would graduate' Hey Tim, if 98% of Cox's players were on track to graduate he'd be losing a shit-load of games to the point where he'd never make it to 32 years as a coaching

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 18 2010 04:15 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Latter-day Harry Caray - homerism and charm = Tim McC

Zvon Sep 18 2010 04:24 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Aw, fuckshit.

Zvon Sep 18 2010 04:29 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Thanks for not holding em Parnell. Sheeze, why do I even watch?

Zvon Sep 18 2010 04:36 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

It would be typical for the Mets get back a run and load the bases here in the 9th and then not score. This would happen because it would be the most painful way for it to go. Wright Ks to start the inning so maybe they will put me out of my misery nice and quick.

POP QUIZ: Francisco Rodriguez will throw his perfect game, concluding a 70-save season with a sub-1 ERA and WHIP... A) For the Marlins, October 2013, to deny the Mets a playoff spot on the season's ultimate day B) For the Phils, October 2014, to give the Phils their fourth straight division title C) For the MFYs, October 2016, on a whim by manager Bobby Valentine D) Why, God, why

If the Mets successfully shed K-Rod, don't look back. Meanwhile, with Hernandez pulling a Bucky Dent, how about advocating for the Mets to call Justin Turner back from his vacation?

I don't think anyone in this organization deserves a vacation, so, yea.

Edgy DC Sep 18 2010 05:14 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Broke a bone in his foot. I'm certain Turner wouldn't think of a recall as punitive.

G-Fafif Sep 18 2010 05:23 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

We're down to three second basemen.

Edgy DC Sep 18 2010 06:27 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

And if they don't suit up a fourth one, they might be forced to play Castillo.

G-Fafif Sep 18 2010 11:28 PM Re: IGT 09/18 -- Braves at Mets

Three Mets -- Santana, Mejia, Hernandez -- have been lost for the season this September. We're doing as well in the war of attrition as we are in the standings.

[quote="Edgy DC":1ccamdko]Broke a bone in his foot. [/quote:1ccamdko] Staying in the game to hit a homer after breaking your foot is the kind of thing that allows reserve infielders to retain their roster spot the next year. Later
