I believe Milledge is still active for tonight's game. If it gets rained out, then I imagine Pelfrey won't join the team until the next time through the rotation.

Frayed Knot Apr 12 2007 04:46 PM

]Did Lastings get sent down? No word of it. Probably after the game though. Poor guy barely got an AB. Easley gets his first start In honor of Glavine & Moyer starting tonight, they're setting aside the radar gun for timing pitches in favor of one of those sand timers. They thought about using a sun dial but the weather didn't cooperate.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 04:51 PM

It would have been nice to find Lastings at least one start, Willie. Whatya dubm?

Nymr83 Apr 12 2007 05:33 PM

we're tied.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 12 2007 05:36 PM

Wright has got to stop killing every single early rally this team has.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 05:39 PM

He does seem to have a knack early on for letting the air out of the balloon.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 05:41 PM

But his third base play has been all-star.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 05:45 PM

Rollins on a mission with dinger #2.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 12 2007 05:46 PM

Opening day fans shoulda stuck to cheering for the Mets, not embarrassing the other guys. Braves and Phils have outplayed the Mets so far

Johnny Dickshot Apr 12 2007 05:53 PM

Glavine makes up for Easley's poor turn.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 06:00 PM

I'll only say it once this year, but that stupid Volare/ohohhhh thing is too fucking Yankee Stadium for my taste to be done at Shea/Citi.

Farmer Ted Apr 12 2007 06:10 PM

Watching on the Phils comcast with Harry Kalas. Trivia...only Mets player with the last name beginning with U? Easy one. I think Harry's been checking out the UMDB.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 12 2007 06:20 PM

This version of the Mets is frustrating to watch. They create all kinds of opportunities for themselves but never seem to want to cah in until the defense gives them an opening. Plus, entirely too many complete zero innings for my liking. If this season were a chick I wouldn;'t have tried to pick her up yet.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 06:30 PM

It's the 9th game of the season. If you're going to liken it to approaching someone in a bar, the bartender hasn't even looked at you yet and neither has she. Take that jacket off and belly up.

iramets Apr 12 2007 06:32 PM

Two ribbie single for Reyes.

iramets Apr 12 2007 06:37 PM

There;s some Abbott- and-Costello potential in Damion Easley. The Eunuch, last inning "And Easley scores easily."

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 06:38 PM

Rollins gets another AB, doesn't homer.

Going into the bottom of the fifth with Beltran, Delgado, Wright. This would be a good inning to score a few runs.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 06:54 PM

I'll spill half a beer on her, you call me a dick and push me, I back down and go feed the jukebox. You're on your own ... With the Mets winning 4-3, why does Cy Moyer still look good through five?

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 07:12 PM

Phils afraid to pitch to Reyes with a guy on third with two outs and pitch around him and then give him first for fourth ball. Phils afraid. Reyes steals second.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 07:12 PM

Lo Duca hit by pitch to load 'em.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 07:18 PM

Beltran K's leaving the bases loaded. Oh those LOB's.

Farmer Ted Apr 12 2007 07:22 PM

Mrs. Ted guessed Uribe but none that I remember. These Phils are annoying. Having no output from Delgado isn't much of a help either.

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 07:32 PM

Wright with a 7th inning one out triple ...

Kid Carsey Apr 12 2007 07:33 PM

Moises with third hit of game knocks him in ...

Elster88 Apr 12 2007 07:58 PM

Oi. That high fly with a man on in the ninth made my heart skip.

Elster88 Apr 12 2007 08:01 PM

Does Wright think too much when he throws the ball in the ninth? Does Wagner frighten anyone else besides me?

Nymr83 Apr 12 2007 08:25 PM

A bone to pick with the WFAN/Rose/McCarthy tonight... I know that whole telethon thing is for a good cause and all, but you should NOT have one of the sponsors on during a met game if you're going to talk to him as if this were a spring training game and ignore the action on the field, filling in later with "oh by the way Rowand singled", the worst was when i could hear a cheer from the crowd for a good defensive play yet it took at least a full 10 seconds for Rose to tell us what happened. This isn't spring training and it isn't television (i cant see what happening if you don't tell me.) if having this guy on is soooo important how bout giving up one of your precious commercial breaks between innings and staying with the anouncers through that to talk to him?

Frayed Knot Apr 12 2007 08:43 PM

Good that Glavine is getting some wins early here, if only that it takes the drama out of getting his 10 wins and lessens the chances that #300 will become an issue.

Willets Point Apr 12 2007 08:46 PM

I've got Glavine penciled in for 30 wins easy.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 12 2007 09:25 PM

That was Eddie C and McCarthy. I think Howie's busy with hockey. Mix of good and bad tonight, I was more pessimisstic early than I shoulda been but Glavine really rebounded well. In the end we're where we are so far because the defense has been super and Reyes the best I've ever seen him.

Rockin' Doc Apr 12 2007 09:44 PM

Today was my little girls "sweet 16th". So I spent the evening celebrating however her heart desired. As a result, I was blissfully unaware of the happenings at Shea. I read through this IGT in order to learn the fate of the Mets. Though this was far from our most comprehensive IGT, I enjoyed it nonetheless. What can i say, I'm a sucker for happy endings.
