Seems a bit of a delayed start, it's already quarter after.

TransMonk Sep 28 2007 05:19 PM

We'll be a little late tonight. The grounds are wet. Rain delay theatre:

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 05:24 PM

Pinstripes. Blue Hats.

Hermida TWO RUN BOMB

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 05:28 PM

i wanna personally slap the motherfuckers who booed after that shot. uh, asshole(s), not helping.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 05:31 PM

I was really hoping we'd manage an easy win tonight just to get the ball rolling. Sigh.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 28 2007 05:32 PM

The booing is bad. I'm sure they're already gripping as it is. But, damn. Damn. It's like a kick in the shins right out of the box. You just don't want them to roll over right away.

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 05:32 PM

it can still be easy.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 28 2007 05:33 PM

OK, Ollie. That was the out of the box yips. Now let's get the boys up to the plate. If we can't beat Kim, then we don't deserve to go to the playoffs.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 05:37 PM

I have a bad feeling about tonight. Kim's fastball is popping, and Ross nabbing Castillo's fly strikes me as a bad sign. I think the Marlins came to play, and I've yet to see any evidence that we have. Evidence against: Reyes leaving the fucking bat on his shoulder. I hat baseball.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 28 2007 05:42 PM

Ollie seems to have settled down. Now let's get the bats in gear.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 28 2007 05:49 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 28 2007 05:50 PM

And this is our luck -- two men on base with two out and the pitcher in the box...

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 05:49 PM

ollie came to play...

metsguyinmichigan Sep 28 2007 05:50 PM

Oh man, and here I was doubting Ollie with the bat!!!

cooby Sep 28 2007 05:51 PM

I'm sitting here listening to the high school football game on the radio and they gave both the Mets and Phillies game scores. Now THAT's a pennant race.

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 06:00 PM

in david's defense, i don't think he was in a position to step on the bag from trying to catch the high throw... but, ugh... lets fucking go.

Mr. Zero Sep 28 2007 06:05 PM

holy freakin crap. this team is unhinged.

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 06:14 PM

kaboom goes carlos.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:14 PM

Beltran with a MAMMOTH SHOT

metsmarathon Sep 28 2007 06:15 PM

off the budweiser can. nice.

Mr. Zero Sep 28 2007 06:17 PM

that shot was beautiful. (sound of seat belt being fastened)

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 06:36 PM

Fucking Reyes. I'm sorry, but that was NOT a nice try, Keith. Reyes should absolutely have had that, and he should have taken the cut-off throw earlier. Terrible.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 06:42 PM

Newhan, not part of the plan.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:45 PM

The not cutting the ball off before that was worse, and I agree that Keith sometimes isn't all that on the ball description wise. OE: sometimes

Mr. Zero Sep 28 2007 06:47 PM

Willie asking Pedro if he can go a couple innings.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:49 PM

Doubt that.

Being semi sarcastic.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:52 PM

Being very sarcastic.

seawolf17 Sep 28 2007 06:55 PM

Bye, playoffs.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:56 PM

7-3, middle of the fifth. L. Castillo 2b D. Wright 3b C. Beltran cf

seawolf17 Sep 28 2007 06:57 PM

So, you mean: K 6-3 fo4 ? I'm turning the game off.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 06:59 PM

No, I meant triple to start off the inning :-)

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 07:02 PM

The freakin' nuns in the Mezz Boxes are with us!!!

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:06 PM

Go, nuns! I'll take that single run. Would've liked to have chased Kimmie.

Since there's no OoTS ... Phils are up 4-sniffle.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:21 PM

EWJ out by Schoeneweis. Keep the heat on, offense. Score somehow.

TransMonk Sep 28 2007 07:22 PM

I find I don't hate Schoeneweis as much as I did a couple of months ago. Too bad he probably won't make more than 2 pitches in this game.

TransMonk Sep 28 2007 07:23 PM

2 run dinger by Howard. We need this game 'cause the Phillies don't seem to be looking back.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 07:24 PM

6 - sniffle, Phils.

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 07:24 PM

Nice to escape futher damage there but JEEZ can we have a 1-2-3 inning once in a while? Fish have had something like 14 baserunners thru 6 and have hit maybe 4 balls hard. Walks, HBPs, infield singles and plays not made are killing us here.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:32 PM

Let's see maybe some Milledge.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:36 PM

Or Niner. Let's go, Mets.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:37 PM

Boo. Three innings to get three runs back. Net. Hold them.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:42 PM

Aaron's being turned into a workhorse, as the most dependable of a suddenly marvelously undependable lot.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 07:45 PM

Why Conine and not Milledge? Milledge v. lefties: .305 AVG/.379 OBP/.542 SLG/.921 OPS Conine: .253 AVG/.329 OBP/445 SLG/.775 OPS Willie has been just god-awful at pulling strings during these stretches.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 07:49 PM

Heilman gets through the 7th, still 7-4. If Lo Duca can't throw, he should sit. Uh, Jose, do that thing you used to do ....

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 07:51 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 28 2007 07:52 PM

"Why Conine and not Milledge?" Probably subscribing to the school of thought that vets make for better pinch-hitters. That may be accurate or maybe just one of those things that most just assume is true. Either way, Conine is certainly has a lot of experience PHing compared to Lastings who has virtually none.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 07:52 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 28 2007 07:54 PM

]Uh, Jose, do that thing you used to do .... I'd like to see a couple things he used to do: get on base, steal a base, score . . . Especially that last one. Come on, guys, despite my negativity, I haven't given up hope yet. Scratch a run or two across here, and show a little pride. ]Either way, Conine is certainly has a lot of experience PHing compared to Lastings who has virtually none. Sure, but in his limited sample size, Milledge is a world-class pinch hitter. 8 AB: .375 AVG/.444 OBP/.625 SLG/1.069

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 07:52 PM

Rot: >>>Why Conine and not Milledge?<<< I hope I'm wrong, but I think he's in the doghouse.

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 07:55 PM

Jose = Clueless

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 07:57 PM

="Kid Carsey"]Rot: >>>Why Conine and not Milledge?<<< I hope I'm wrong, but I think he's in the doghouse. I think you're right. Given how little we're using him during this stretch, I'd rather we'd have traded him for one of those bullpen arms. It would have been a terrible deal, but if we're not using him anyway . . . ETA: Castillo wants to win tonight. Good. Let's get it going, Mets!

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 07:59 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 28 2007 08:00 PM

Castillo with the type of infield base hit with a hobbled leg that Jose should be getting. Just sayin'.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 07:59 PM

That's cool. Just chip away.

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 08:00 PM

Gotta at least get SOMETHING here!!

cooby Sep 28 2007 08:07 PM

What's going on? Delgado hasn't really been on deck for 10 minutes has he?

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 08:08 PM

THAT may have been our last best chance.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 08:08 PM

Well, we still have 6 outs left, but after that last inning . . .

holychicken Sep 28 2007 08:09 PM

I can't believe the Mets aren't going to make the postseason. Does it get any worse than this?

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 08:10 PM

Mets are officially out of first place for the time being.

TransMonk Sep 28 2007 08:14 PM

Great outing by Heilman.

You're prompting all sorts of horrible scenarios in my head, holychicken, including a shallow outfield collision involving Reyes, Wright & Beltran. In other words, it can always get worse. But I agree that our prospects are grim and getting grimmer.

why cant castro play? freaking loduca is hobbling like an old man! damnit damnit damnit

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 08:26 PM

martin wrote: why cant castro play? freaking loduca is hobbling like an old man! damnit damnit damnit No shit. I'm glad that Paulie wants to play, but it's Willie's job to step in and say, "Hey, dude, you can't throw and you can't swing--you're out." Preferably BEFORE giving up one of our precious outs. If Paulie wants to throw a temper tantrum, well, Willie should be man enough to handle it. That was the dumbest at bat I've seen all year.

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2007 08:26 PM

Pop-Up, Pop-Up, Pop-Up... and Reyes wasn't even one of the hitters. The lack of timely hits is just stunning.

metirish Sep 28 2007 08:27 PM

I feel sick and it's not form the Popeye's Chicken.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 08:30 PM

Keith shocked at how much the Mets have been taking lately, compared to earlier in the year. Edgy pointing out a correlation to how much the Mets have been behind lately, compared to earlier in the year.

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 08:31 PM

Score now. Please.

Kid Carsey Sep 28 2007 08:32 PM

Well, we got three outs to get at least three runs.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2007 08:32 PM

There's still a crowd pulling for them there, God bless them.

Reyes's only hit corresponds with Castillo's only out -- story of the month.

Padres are winning 6 - 3 in the 8th, so if they win we will be two games back in the WC.......

Rotblatt Sep 28 2007 08:44 PM

Man, I'm going to tomorrow's game, and I don't think I could possibly be less excited about it. U-G-L-Y, that's what we are right now. Two days to right the ship, for pride if not for a playoff berth.

metirish Sep 28 2007 08:47 PM

If the Padres win Rott then we are looking for the Nats to help and us to win the last two.
