Cubs took a 2 zip lead with back to back homers but Beltran just hit a blast to CF.........Lets Go Mets.

I still don't understand that green SpongeBob guy.

Willets Point Jul 25 2006 07:33 PM

S--t! Zambrano's pitching, we'll never win. Wait Glavine's pitching too. Two Mets pitchers pitching the same night!!! And we still can't win. SC=ludicrous

Ladies and gentlemen, the Steve Rogers Show.

Gary talking about how with the trading deadline coming and everyone talking about pitching that this team has a need for a leftie hitter on the bench...." no ones talking about that"....yes we have Gary...

metirish Jul 25 2006 07:43 PM

WOW...Chavez with a 3 run homer..Willie you are a genius.

SteveJRogers Jul 25 2006 07:45 PM

END-Y CHA-VEZ!

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 07:49 PM

I think the genius is Omar for continuing to acquire that guy.

SteveJRogers Jul 25 2006 07:51 PM

Or is that GeniOUS!

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 07:53 PM

EEE: Gary reminds us that Zambrano held the Mets hitless through five his last go against them, then we jumped oon him in the sixth after he ran the bases.

I was at the Sunday game with an uncle who said Pelfrey was pitching a perfect game in the 2nd. He proceeded to lose the perfecto, no hitter and shutout, and eventually the game. I told my uncle that the Met loss was on HIS HEAD!

SteveJRogers Jul 25 2006 07:57 PM

Runners on corners! GULP!

SteveJRogers Jul 25 2006 07:58 PM

Tom Glavine has been To-MAS Glav-VINE the last few starts!

SteveJRogers Jul 25 2006 08:00 PM

Sac bad, could be worse though Okay, gotta go to a Cost Accounting Class. Keep Offense Going GUYS!

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:05 PM

Paulie, what was that?

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:06 PM

Going to class with the Satan clothes on.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:08 PM

That was a short double to score a runner from first. Dang.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:17 PM

Be better, Mets.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:37 PM

This thread is dead! Reyes gets an opposite-field single. Good sign.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:39 PM

Lo Duca follows with an opposite-fielder of his own. First and third. Hows this for numbers? Fifty-seven starts (I think) for Zambrano, with two stolen bases yielded, and 12 thieves caught.

metirish Jul 25 2006 08:40 PM

Mets have a chance to break this game open.....runners on the corners with no outs, Beltran at bat....come on carlos you can win over the fans with a big hit....

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:42 PM

Delgado is slow. A double play turned on him with all. due. deliberation.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:50 PM

Ten in a row for Glavine. Goodish. He's likely cooked at 101 pitches through six. Not so good. He's only allowed three earned runs. Goodish. The three unearned runs were largely a result of his fielding error. Not so good. He actually made a swift play there, and, while his throw was high, Delgado could've helped him out by having his other foot on the bag. Good-bad. I dunno. Ambiguous day for Glavine. David Wright with a near miss.

metirish Jul 25 2006 08:50 PM

Wright just missed a homer by a few feet....

Elster88 Jul 25 2006 08:55 PM

Why do pitchers keep taking our pitchers yard? Opposite field even.

Centerfield Jul 25 2006 08:55 PM

Zambrano had a few to spare.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 08:56 PM

Zambrano is... damn.

GYC Jul 25 2006 09:21 PM

Willie is a jackass two nights in a row with his piss poor bullpen management. What a joke this guy is at bullpen management and knowning when to pull guys. edit

Zvon Jul 25 2006 09:29 PM

I havent been able to be at the keys or keep an eye on this game-- but looks like I was fortunate so far. Zambrano smacks one out?! Eyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyecurumba. And I missed a couple a KaBooms-hate when that happens. Sheesh--these damn Cubbies.

Dempster again..SPANK HIM boys!

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 09:38 PM

Be nice to have that lefthanded slugger on the bench about now.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 09:42 PM

Do it again, Endy. Do it again.

Zvon Jul 25 2006 09:43 PM

Wright singles- Floyd Ks Valentin singles- Mets have runners on the corners, 1 out. Down by 3. Chavez at the plate.

Nymr83 Jul 25 2006 09:44 PM

just got home. 1st and 3rd, 1 out. shrink jay-satan please.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 09:46 PM

Fascinating action. The double play is set up with Franco at the plate though.

Frayed Knot Jul 25 2006 09:46 PM

Franco, not Nady?

Zvon Jul 25 2006 09:47 PM

Endy draws the walk. Bases loaded for.............. Mr Franco.

Mr Franco grounds out and Wright scores.......(whew-no DP) 8-6 2 out.

Elster88 Jul 25 2006 09:51 PM

Well this is exciting.

Zvon Jul 25 2006 09:51 PM

....and Reyes walks to load em again. COME ON LoDUCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TransMonk Jul 25 2006 09:51 PM

Reyes walks...all LoDuca.

Frayed Knot Jul 25 2006 09:51 PM

That walk to Reyes didn't really mean much. The extra runner doesn't matter and I'd rather have Jose up ... except that LoDuca's been hot, I'll give him that.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 09:51 PM

Crazy. Howry vs. Lo Duca.

Elster88 Jul 25 2006 09:52 PM

What does Right Zambrano mean?

metirish Jul 25 2006 09:52 PM

Come on you Mets...great bloody game again tonight.

Zvon Jul 25 2006 09:53 PM

Forget the painful thumb loDuke--alls we need is a rgound ball up the middle.... Just a single ties it.

Elster88 Jul 25 2006 09:53 PM

Chavez on second is good news.

metirish Jul 25 2006 09:56 PM

Great AB by LoDuca...so far.

Edgy DC Jul 25 2006 09:58 PM

Bootles.

Zvon Jul 25 2006 10:04 PM

He worked the at bat but pops out. Dagnabbitt. I think Howry was in there cuz Dempster has twice as many walks in the same amount of innings pitched. I gotta question the use of Mr Franco there--the odds of getting a long ball (homer or double) out of him are much less than that with the X-Man. And bringin in Howry was a good move there (in retrospect, of course). Outmanaged by Dusty Baker----.

Terrible game from everyone except Endy (Heilman, Wagner, Beltran were ok). LoDuca is the slowest man alive (the grounder deep up the middle). At least he looked like he was hustling. I got the distinct feeling that Cliff Floyd wasn't running nearly as hard as he could in the OF tonight. I seriously doubt Willie ever had any intention of letting Glavine finish the 7th inning -- he was at 100 pitches -- he has been tiring lately -- and he should have been f-ing pulled and never allowed to pitch that inning. Aargh. I know he had retired the last 10 batters and the pitcher was due up, but it was painfully obvious from my seat in the Mezzanine that he needed to go the the 'pen right there and not try to get an extra inning out of him. The 'pen was pretty rested and there's an off day on Thursday. Bad, bad game.

Stupidity in the Mets having Victor Zambrano, Mike Maddux and Kaz Matsui on their roster? Yes I realize there was no shot ever of landing Carlos, Greg or Hideki at any point, but the point was poking fun at the regimes that made the Zambrano trade, the Maddux trade (to be fair Maddux wasn't overhyped or anything and we sure the heck weren't going after a front line starter at the time, Maddux was what he was, a spare part in the pen) and Matsui signing. Part of the Mets habit of getting that player just as he hits his decline or when he's damaged goods, or in Matsui's case just plain overhyped and poorly evaluated
