Willie immediately throws Anderson in the fray. Milledge's 0 for San Diego (0-12 w/ no walks) helped open a spot for Anderson to make his 2007 debut.

Is Marlon one of Willie's guys,is that it....true to form WWSB throws him right in against his old team.

Kid Carsey Jul 19 2007 07:35 PM

Who hits number two on this team since before spring training gets too much attention for my taste.

I think revenege will carry the day. Welcome back Abordick, Marlon Anderson, wearing Julio Franco's 23!

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:15 PM

Can we check Reyes' hearing? Second time this week he slid on a steal attempt without realizing the ball had been hit.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:16 PM

Pour it on, Mets.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 08:17 PM

Here c-c-c-c-comes K-k-k-k-ken! And he's going to kk-k-k-k-k-kill me!

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:24 PM

We're hitting line-to-line today.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 08:25 PM

Rrrre-venge! Revenge!

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 08:26 PM

Still only 1 down

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:30 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jul 23 2007 09:44 AM

That one out was a lucky one. Vin Scully, while still amazing, is strangely unprepared, recalling, as Ruben Gotay came up, an old player called Julio Gotay, without knowing that he was Ruben's uncle. Things look good for win number 299 tonight (6-0, as I type), but let's knock this sucker out and burn the bullpen for the rest of the series.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:33 PM

That second out was gift. Supposedly the Dodger pen has ben overworked coming in.

DocTee Jul 19 2007 08:34 PM

Mets on pace for a 54 hit, 54 run night.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 08:42 PM

Glavine should retire if he doesn't end this shit right now.

Batty31 Jul 19 2007 08:43 PM

Nice throw by Green to gun down Kent!

Kid Carsey Jul 19 2007 08:55 PM

Took two edits, but what I meant is posted above. First inning took almost 45 minutes .... good luck to youse east coasters planning on seeing this IGT through.

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 08:56 PM

And yes, we have the obligatory Alyssa Milano sighting. I can't say for sure but I think she was looking over both benches saying; had him ... still need him ... had him ... had him ... still need ...

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 08:58 PM

That motherfucker.

bmfc1 Jul 19 2007 08:59 PM

Holy crap!

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 08:59 PM

Glsvine is givingme agita.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:01 PM

Retire.

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 09:01 PM

Consider that between the out at 3rd and the one by Lowe (pitchers don't count) Glavine's really only tallied 2 outs so far while facing 10 and giving up 4.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:03 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Jul 19 2007 09:09 PM

I blame Alyssa.

cooby Jul 19 2007 09:09 PM

Alissa is?

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 09:12 PM

I hate that we gave Lowe (and the Dodger pen) breathing room

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:14 PM

It'd be cool if the PHed for Glavvy here.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:14 PM

Still taking that sinker the other way. Green getting hot?

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:17 PM

Knock him out, Jose. Now!

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:18 PM

Revenge!

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 09:18 PM

I think Marlon already has more hits than Newhan.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:19 PM

Welcome back, Marlon. Where the Hell you been?

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:19 PM

It's astonishing how poor a decision Newhan turned out to be. Come on Mets, Glavine isn't good enough to protect a 4-run lead. Get Marlon home.

Willie, Please get this decrepit old slowballer off the mound. Sincerely, All That Is Holy

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 09:26 PM

Glavine isn't exactly fooling anyone tonight. It looks like this one is going to be a real slugfest.

Glavine is making me PUKE.

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 09:32 PM

This apparently what Glavine's piutchers look like to the Dodger hitters tonight.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:33 PM

Get the fuck out of my sight Glavine. BBBbOooOOOoooooOOoooooooOooOOOOoOOOOOoooOOOO0o0oooooooOOOOO

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:33 PM

6-0 and 9-4. These were gifts to you, Tom.

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 09:36 PM

A nice easy come backer to Sele would be nice here.

metsguyinmichigan Jul 19 2007 09:40 PM

So I check the score the first time and it's 6-2 and I say "Yea!" Then it's 6-4 and I grumble back to my chores. Then I check again and we have 9. Yea! Then I see bleeping Aaron Sele on the mound and I'm afraid to go back to the chores.

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 09:41 PM

Dodger baserunning is saving us tonight.

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 09:43 PM

Thanks for that, because our pitchers apparently need all the help they can get. The Mets were fortunate to get out of theat mess no worse than that.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 09:43 PM

Yeah, that seemed like a hugely un-necessary sacrifice by Garciaparra. I congratulate Sele, but I don't like Randolph going straight to the long-man there. It may be early, but it's a high-leverage spot. Go to the short man to get you out of the inning, then turn it over to Sele. But good job, Sele.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:44 PM

I hereby dub thee The Aaron Sele Game.

Glavine is making me PUKE. On the bright side, Newhan was just a free-agent signing, right? He didn't cost us anything like the Johnson and Burgos trades did.

D. J. Houlton pitching for LA What is it with ballplayers using only initials these days? - J. J. Putz pitched in the All-Star game to J. J. Hardy. The result was, of course, a BB - And up in Toronto, GM J. P. Riccardi is having a tough year as both B. J. Ryan and A. J. Burnett are on the DL

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 09:48 PM

I like letting scrubeenies scatter after 1 year, especailly when you catch lightning in a bottle. Anderson was a pretty good benchie tho IIRC his magic waned as the season progressed and letting him walk was considered pretty OK around these parts.

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 09:52 PM

WE GOT THE LEADOFF BATTER OUT !!!!

bmfc1 Jul 19 2007 09:57 PM

The Mets offered Anderson one year and the Nationals offered him two.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:00 PM

"Juan Pierre is everywhere!"

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 10:01 PM

At least he didn't find his way home that inning.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:02 PM

Juan Pierre is out of there!

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:06 PM

Ruben is 3-3, brothers. C'mon, we're inning five. We should be on page five.

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:07 PM

Good eye, Malik.

Johnny Dickshot Jul 19 2007 10:08 PM

This is just one of those games

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:11 PM

Twelve Metly hits.

Frayed Knot Jul 19 2007 10:14 PM

One of the stats that the talk-radio crowd has been complaining about lately is that the Mets haven't won a game in X numbers of weeks when we've given up more than 3 runs. Not sure they're going to like this route any better.

Nymr83 Jul 19 2007 10:32 PM

Delgado homers to make it 11-7 Mets, this game is crazy.

Nymr83 Jul 19 2007 10:34 PM

Castro homers too, 12-7.

Batty31 Jul 19 2007 10:34 PM

And now Castro hits a home run...12-7

Edgy DC Jul 19 2007 10:35 PM

It's getting harder to keep Smashtro on the bench.

Batty31 Jul 19 2007 10:36 PM

Is that orange scrolling ticker tape graphic that SNY has been using tonight new??? I'm finding it to be very distracting.

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 10:37 PM

Hopefully this game will help to launch the offense.

Rockin' Doc Jul 19 2007 10:40 PM

Sele did a great job tonight. Three good innings of relief. Now it's in Heilman's hands.

I'm surprised that none of you watching on tv noticed the apoplectic fits I was having in the stands because of Glavine. It's nice to read this thread and see that finally some of you are acknowledging that Glavine isn't the Holy of Holies.

Benjamin Grimm Jul 23 2007 09:42 AM

Nobody ever said that he was the Holy of Holies. (Whatever that means.) We just don't agree with you that he's the Fount of all Evil. Your inability to see shades of grey in this matter reminds me of that guy who sees Willie Randolph as sinister and brain damaged.

I can't say for sure but I think she was looking over both benches saying; had him ... still need him ... had him ... had him ... still need ... Alyssa Milano Loves L.A. Dodgers - How About All-Star Russell Martin? by Gia Cortina If you know anything about Alyssa Milano, you know she loves baseball...and the L.A. Dodgers in particular. After a meeting with Russell Martin the all-star catcher, some are wondering if he's a new love interest. Apparently, Alyssa, 34, was seen flirting with Russell, 24, at the all-star game on July 11th. She was overheard, reports Us Magazine, telling a friend that she thought the catcher was cute. However, after the meeting, the Charmed actress wrote on her blog... "Okay, yeah, so I finally met Russell Martin. No big deal. And yeah, I was cool. Yup. And I didn't have sweaty palms. Nope. I didn't get star struck. Nope. I wasn't even weak in the knees. Nope. My upper lip did NOT start sweating nor did I get blotchy and break out in hives. Phew. Thank God not one of those embarrassing this happened. I was cool as a cucumber. No big deal."

bmfc1 Jul 24 2007 02:33 PM

I guess it's Russell Martin's turn.

OlerudOwned Jul 24 2007 02:37 PM

I hope the Dodgers hurry up and trade Martin to the Marlins. It seems to be how we get all of our catchers, and I'd like to get a decent portion of his prime to come as a Met.
