Let's try this again...
In pregame transactional news, Dave Williams was called up and Brian Lawrence was DFAed.
|
Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 02:53 PM |
Nook is a cool name.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 03:04 PM |
I'm as wild about Dave Williams as I am about Brian Lawrence.
|
TransMonk Sep 18 2007 03:10 PM |
According to Metsblog.com, Tom Glavine suggested in an interview with WFAN today that the team would likely have a closed-door, players-only meeting before the game tonight. Glavine also stated it would be the first players-only meeting in the 5 years he's been a Met.

Nice way to start.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:17 PM |
Wowzers.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2007 05:20 PM |
4-0 early lead.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 05:22 PM |
As each run scored, I'd note to myself:
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:22 PM |
Paul sacs in a run, and Endy singles in another.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:23 PM |
HA!
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:31 PM |
Maine gives up a grounds rule double to Zimmerman in the 1st, but the Nats cant plate him.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 05:36 PM |
The Nationals haven't named their new stadium yet?
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:37 PM |
Castillo single is the only noise the Mets make in the 2nd.
|
Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 05:41 PM |
4-1 HR for Kearns ... I can only pop in here a little but a) how big does a lead
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:49 PM |
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 05:49 PM |
Green negates Kearns.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 05:52 PM |
OUCH!

Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:01 PM |
We are into the Nat pen

Logan triples and scores on the Lopez sac fly.

Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:22 PM |

Yep, the old team meetin' went down.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:28 PM |
Nats score and threaten more but only come away with the one.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 06:34 PM |
Milledge is on to pinch run for Alou at second base. Alou didn't hurt his leg again, did he?
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 06:36 PM |
Meanwhile LoDuca doubles in Milledge. Endy will try to get LoDuca home. And he does with a single.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:37 PM |

Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:38 PM |

I hope not.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 06:42 PM |
Now there's a surprise, Reyes pops up to the shortstop in shallow left field to end the rally.
|
soupcan Sep 18 2007 06:49 PM |
7-4.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:49 PM |
St Loo two.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 06:53 PM |
Gameday states that Moises Alou left game due to a leg injury. That's not good.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 06:53 PM |
Holy shit.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 06:54 PM |
I'm going to have a lot of unexpected free time in October.

Nymr83 Sep 18 2007 06:54 PM |
What. The. Fuck.
|
Mendoza Line Sep 18 2007 06:54 PM |
Jeezus. That's two nights in a row that I left the office with the Mets in the lead and got home in time to watch them blow it.
|
holychicken Sep 18 2007 06:55 PM |
You have GOT to be fucking kidding me. I can't take this shit anymore.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 06:55 PM |
you
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 06:55 PM |
Incredible. Ronnie Belliard clears the bases with a three run home run to left. The Mets now trail by a score of 8-7.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 06:56 PM |
So bad it's almost good. I mean, wow.
|
Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 06:58 PM |
I almost hope they blow the season and the Yanks win it all.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:01 PM |
Schoeneweis will take over for Maine.
|
holychicken Sep 18 2007 07:02 PM |
|
Fixed. But seriously, II feel like I need to break something. . . please someone say SOMETHING to make me feel better.
|
Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 07:05 PM |
Umm...The Cardinals just took a 2-1 lead over the Phillies in the bottom of the third inning in St. Louis.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:05 PM |
I didn't see that homer by Belliard, but I think I can picture the blast by fat ass in the playoffs last year in its place.
|
Nymr83 Sep 18 2007 07:05 PM |
|
Post of the day. i was listening on the radio on the car ride home and the anouncers were already (Mets up 5-1 at the time) gushing about the players only meeting turning things around. whoops.
|
holychicken Sep 18 2007 07:08 PM |

Eh, I'll just go drink another beer, I guess. /mumbles curses under breath

St. Louis scores another.

And even worse, my posting player is Mike DeJean, a total stiff!
|
metsguyinmichigan Sep 18 2007 07:15 PM |
And bleeping Schoenweis is COMPLETELY worthless!
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:17 PM |

Schoeneweis can't keep em down. Hard to believe we led this game 4-0 after one. 9-7 them.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:20 PM |
Mota.

Rockin' Doc Sep 18 2007 07:22 PM |
Marty Nobles at MLB.com has this regarding Alou's early departure tonight.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:24 PM |
I pictured Val sitting there in the 1st inning,

This hits me right in the nutz. Metswise,fantasywise. Ugh.

Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:33 PM |
Munez relieves Rivera.

Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:34 PM |
This is the only reason to have Conine.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:37 PM |
I'd have preferred a 2-run HR but nice.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:40 PM |
It's Anderson v. Schroeder. Game right here.
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:40 PM |
Looks like the CPF left the game early.
|
metsguyinmichigan Sep 18 2007 07:41 PM |
C'mon, Marlon!

Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:41 PM |

Thanks. Let me go stab a pencil in my eye to make it complete.

Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:52 PM |
Top of the order. Serious Mojo Rally Song in order.

Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:53 PM |
Good job by Heilman.

Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:55 PM |
Thats nice Reyes.

Zvon Sep 18 2007 07:56 PM |
Castillo draws the walk.

Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 07:57 PM |
Oh jeez Zvon, he was a foot or two from beating it out and a foot or two
|
Johnny Dickshot Sep 18 2007 07:58 PM |
Holy fuck. We're really going down here.
|
Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 08:00 PM |
Nice try with the tunes though ...
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 08:02 PM |
|
Wish I could have seen it K.C. Im reading the game :(. Was waiting here for a description, none was forthcoming. Im afraid my frustration proceeds me. Wright hits into the DP. Phils have scored in the 6th and are down 3-2, but threatening. Pitching change there. Feliciano comes on and is greeted with a Fick single in the 8th.
|
Gwreck Sep 18 2007 08:07 PM |
You know what gets me the most? It's that once the lead has been blown, it's like the offense has gone into a hole or something. We were hitting these guys fine through the first few innings. But once we lost the lead...
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2007 08:07 PM |
Now all we have to do is score two or more runs off the only GOOD pitcher Washington has.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 08:09 PM |
< I thought I made a Trachsel but Im looking, and I dont have one in my files.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 18 2007 08:13 PM |
I don't think I'm even going to watch tomorrow's game.

Frayed Knot - "IS THERE ANYBODY ALIVE OUT THERE?"
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 08:16 PM |
2 out in the 9th and Green singles.
|
Nymr83 Sep 18 2007 08:18 PM |
Gotay up with tying run at 3rd and go ahead run at first. come on motherfuckers....
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2007 08:18 PM |
CO-9 trying to be the hero keeps us alive.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 08:20 PM |
He keeps it alive with a single.

Nice graphic at the end of the game about teams blowing at seven
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 08:35 PM |
To put it in ironic perspective, if the Mets do fold, it can only be the 2nd worst slide in the history of the game.
|
metirish Sep 18 2007 08:37 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 18 2007 08:40 PM |
Acta managed like it was game seven,the tease at the end was too much to take,and El Duque is to wear a boot on his foot fot the next seven to ten days and might not pitch again this regular season.......add post-season joke here..................................................
|
Kid Carsey Sep 18 2007 08:39 PM |
They mentioned the '64 Phils and said this would be worse if I heard

Todays Post states otherwise, but truthfully, I don't trust their research dept. Im sure we will be hearing more in regards to the comparison during the next few days.

Thanks, Z. Finally learned to get an image up.

metirish Sep 18 2007 08:48 PM |
So does Willie still throw Pelfrey out there tomorrow or send Glavine and not get that extra days rest for Pedro,I mean it's fucking crunch time here.
|
Zvon Sep 18 2007 09:08 PM |
|
Good question. I would imagine if the Phils win their game he will consider alternatives. Willie went on record before todays game saying Maines our stopper, and we are in good shape. And Im glad he said that. It was the thing to say.....at the time. Well, Willie, its really time to show your a manager. Manage to save our asses please.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 18 2007 09:10 PM |
Pelfrey will pitch Wednesday.
|
Valadius Sep 18 2007 09:18 PM |
Back from the game. What a disappointment.

Edgy DC Sep 18 2007 10:55 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 18 2007 11:31 PM |
Met Valadius and caught up with bfmc again at the game. Val didn't hide under his seat. In truth, Met fans held the fort as best as we could, until the bitter end.
|
Valadius Sep 18 2007 11:13 PM |
As I said to Edgy at the game, that stuff Hershiser said about Maine not having the right look in his eyes or whatever, I just remembered, when I went to Willie's charity auction thing, Maine was there, and he was just really really quiet. He was most often off in a corner somewhere, like he was hiding. I didn't make much of it until now, but now it speaks volumes.
|
Edgy DC Sep 18 2007 11:32 PM |
Peterson has to get some heat for this also. When you go and talk to your starter, that next pitch he throws is on you. That next pitch he threw went 430 feet.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 19 2007 04:10 AM |
After their 148th game, the 1964 Phillies had a six-game lead.
|
bmfc1 Sep 19 2007 05:09 AM |
After two nights with the Mets at RFK, I'm almost speechless. It was good seeing Edgy again and meeting Valadius although I don't know if I said anything coherent to either of them. It wasn't a good night for small talk or even coherent talk. At one point, I think I yelled "You suck Teddy Roosevelt!" This might make sense if you've seen the presidents races at RFK (and no, I wasn't drinking).
|
Edgy DC Sep 19 2007 07:02 AM Edited 2 time(s), most recently on Sep 19 2007 07:47 AM |
That dude was mean-angry. Shit-a-bowling-ball angry.
|
metirish Sep 19 2007 07:13 AM |
I'm sure there is plenty of blame to go around for this debacle ,one thing though I would like to know,why Schoeneweis in four straight games after him being buried in the pen for what seemed like forever.
|
HahnSolo Sep 19 2007 07:17 AM |
|
I'm down with 2007 Scot Schoenweis turning into 1996 Graham Lloyd
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 19 2007 07:19 AM |
The brutal fact is that Willie doesn't have a lot of good options when he has to hand the ball to somebody in the fifth or sixth innings.
|
Frayed Knot Sep 19 2007 07:20 AM |
|
Problem is that that "look in the eyes" stuff didn't seem to affect Maine when he stepped up in a must-win NLCS game 6, or even just a week or so ago when he shut down the Braves in a game we absolutely needed coming off the earlier Phils' sweep. I'm always leery of those kind of "I can tell" pronouncements from analysts. I remember, for instance, how everyone in this town just KNEW that both Kenny Rogers & Jeff Weaver were going to melt in their 2006 playoff efforts on account of having to face NYC teams. Didn't quite work out that way.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 19 2007 07:24 AM |
But, to play devil's advocate, maybe Maine DID have the look in his eyes last year in Game 6. He may have been pitching with more confidence last October than he is now.
|
metirish Sep 19 2007 07:24 AM |
Maine is quite so he must be a bottler,that's silly talk,Jose Lima is loud and brash on the mound ,doesn't make him great.
|
Benjamin Grimm Sep 19 2007 07:27 AM |
A bottler? We'll have to add that term to the metirish glossary.

55-year-old lout in Billy Sims Lions jersey picking a fight with a 30-year old goof in a Gary Sheffield Yankees jersey. Who do you root for?
|
metirish Sep 19 2007 09:21 AM |
I root for stadium security to kick them both out.
