What's the likelihood that Trachsel's ERA will still be better than Unit's after this game is over?

Let's go Mets!

yeah having the big dildo under
contract for 2 more years seems like a great move for the Yankees. Also look like that they woke up after last nights mail in.
its a ground ball...trickling... its a fair ball, its by Buckner, rounding third Knight, the Mets will win the ballgame, the Mets win

Nady has a fractured wrist
and shouldn't be playing right now. Durrr...

They sent Milledge down just moments before they found out. Bad luck. Should have DL'ed Nady.

he thinks he can play through it
Milo can be brought back anyway without penality.

I thought there was a waiting period
of at least a week or something before you can bring someone back who you demote.

They have mechanisms for stopping teams being rotated constantly...so you can't e.g. have a 15 man bullpen with players activated and deactivated daily.

by peeder on Jul 1, 2006 3:56 PM EDT up reply actions  

Not
if a player goes to the DL.

Not if you
put someone on the DL. If you DL someone the waiting period is waived.

Not bad
Quality start for Trax.

Let's see what Soler can do in the nationally televised rubber game.

Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.

Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!
