So today is David Wright's day off.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 11:04 AM |
OH, put your proper pajamas on! Pedro's back.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 11:06 AM |
I'm gonna try to get WFAN streaming on my computer. I hope it works.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 11:15 AM |
What the hell?!?!?!?
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 11:19 AM |
Welcome to Hell.

Val,Mets games do not go out on the stream....no idea why.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 11:22 AM |
Nothing of much importance is free in hell.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 11:26 AM |
Well, we quickly go up 1-0 as Castillo doubles and then Beltran singles to drive him home.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 11:28 AM |
Who did the Bills take in round one?
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 11:43 AM |
Phew. We can all breathe now.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 11:47 AM |
Apparently it's a DC-only thread, with all NYC-Poolers at the game.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 11:49 AM |
I love DC. Go Skins.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 11:53 AM |
Get's Bidge to start on the curve in the dirt, but Bidge takes first as it gets away. Then gets Berkman on the change. Then gets Lee on the change.
|

Pedro has it going through three innings. He's thrown 67 pitches though and he needs a quick inning in the 4th so he can at least get through 5 innings.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:03 PM |
Pedro misses out on the 4-K inning, but still, 3 K's in the third. His pitch count is up to 67 now.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 09 2007 12:04 PM |
Holy role reversal, Batman. Pedro doubles to lead off the bottom of the third, then Jose Reyes sac bunts him to third.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:05 PM |
Met's threatening first-and-third as Pedro one-hops a double off the wall.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 09 2007 12:06 PM |
Sac fly deep to the left centerfield power ally plates Pedro and allows Castillo to advance to second with 2 outs.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:10 PM |
Well, a sac fly is something.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 09 2007 12:11 PM |
Alou doing his part to get Oswalts pitch count up by fouling off 6 pitches, but eventually he goes down swinging as he couldn't foul off a 7th strike.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 09 2007 12:14 PM |

|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:15 PM |
Eight-pitch inning in the fourth, suckas.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:20 PM |
Pedro's pitch count is now exactly 75.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:26 PM |
Glad we got Castillo and not Loretta.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:29 PM |
So Pedro's gonna go out there past his pitch count and try to get through 5. I have faith in him.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:32 PM |
Mota and Schoeneweis up in the pen.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 12:37 PM |
That's right folks, 5 shutout innings.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:38 PM |
"Back in the New York Groove" plays.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:41 PM |
5 shutout innings. Pedro's getting there. The optimism increases.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 12:45 PM |
I like Alou.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:48 PM |
Beautiful girl
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 12:51 PM |
Alou goes KABOOM!!!
|
Frayed Knot Sep 09 2007 12:52 PM |
Mota quickly gets the natives restless
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:52 PM |
Hello, Mr. Mota.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 12:55 PM |
Jiminy Christmas.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:56 PM |
Mota thinking like the infielder he was and blows a play.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 12:58 PM |
Ron Darling on A-Rod: "The way he's swinging, he needs to be called up. I mean, there's got to be another league to call him up to, because he's making a mockery of this one."
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:04 PM |
Mota had nothing on the line but his future Metliness there.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 01:06 PM |
Why did Mota have to attend the Armando Benitez School for Gifted but Frustrating Relief Pitchers?
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 01:14 PM |
Mmmm...roller derby.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:15 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 09 2007 01:16 PM |
Mota's and Benitez's success rates could hardly be more different.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:16 PM |
Reyes looks like ptt these days.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 01:18 PM |
I was just about to mention Reyes' struggles. He's hit a mini-slump and seen his BA fall to .288 from .301.

Today's trivia Q:
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:22 PM |
Scott hits a ball foul by a few feet and doesn't run, and his interim manager pats him in the butt. He should be kicking it.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 01:22 PM |
You are correct FK.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:23 PM |
Blyleven. Damn.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 09 2007 01:25 PM |
Football talk during baseball games annoys me.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:31 PM |
Keith Hernandez = Pete Rosebut for the grace of God
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 01:36 PM |
Gomez comes in to play left field.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 01:50 PM |
We may have found a position for Gotay.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 01:52 PM |
Two outs now in the ninth.
|
TransMonk Sep 09 2007 01:53 PM |
Sweep.
|
Valadius Sep 09 2007 01:58 PM |
Mets win!
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 09 2007 02:11 PM |
|
You've got to be kidding. We have to set our sights higher than that.
|
Edgy DC Sep 09 2007 02:30 PM |
|
He's hit far more than a min-slump. He was slumping when he was at .301.
|

I think he's just being a great team mate and making it so writers wont be splittin the MVP votes between him and Wright. wooohoo

Picture of the day:

Interesting bit here form Oswalt...
So the ump doesn't automatically take scuffed balls out and Oswalt chose to keep that ball,or did the ump not see it....
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 10 2007 09:19 AM |
If the ump sees a scuff he removes the ball from the game.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 10 2007 09:21 AM |
That's interesting though not surprising. You take what advantages you can.
|
Centerfield Sep 10 2007 01:05 PM |
I didn't watch the game and I've heard conflicting reports about Pedro's velocity. Some say he was 88-89, topping out in the low 90's sometimes.
|
metirish Sep 10 2007 01:11 PM |
84-85, topping out at 87 is about the speed of it,he may have had a few higher but 84 to 87 was where he was consistently on his fastball.
|
Nymr83 Sep 10 2007 01:14 PM |
whoever said "low 90's" might have beenat thegame and been looking at the (generally absurd) stadium guns displayed for the fans.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 10 2007 01:14 PM |
I remember the guys commenting on one pitch that clocked at 92, but that was out of line with the rest of his pitches, so it may have been an incorrect reading.
|
OlerudOwned Sep 10 2007 01:28 PM |
From the stadium, Pedro seemed to be in the 84-87 range, staying around 85 by the 5th inning.
|
Centerfield Sep 10 2007 01:30 PM |
I need better friends.
|
Edgy DC Sep 10 2007 02:02 PM |
|
I think I commented on it. Two stiffs stood at the plate and watched popups that were foul by a few feet. One of them got a CC pat on the ass for his non-effort.
