Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Open Thread - Game 106: Mets vs. Brewers (07/31/2007) on SNY

Aa_avatar_tiny by Eric Simon on


Source: mlb.com

Tale of the tape:

Glavine Suppan
ERA 4.51 5.08
FIP 5.14 4.56
K/9 4.10 4.74
BB/9 3.01 3.25
K/BB 1.36 1.46
HR/9 1.23 0.81
WHIP 1.39 1.56
GB/FB 1.11 1.29
BABIP .280 .325
eBABIP .340 .328

Que se dillio:

Carlos Beltran hit the disabled list today, Eric Gagne went to Boston, former Met Royce Ring went to Atlanta, the Mets were close on Chad Cordero but ultimately nothing happened there.

Oh, and Tom Glavine takes his first crack at career victory #300, against our old arch enemy.

Good deal
Everything looks nice except for Milledge batting 8th. (And Green 6th)

I wouldn't hesitate to hit him 3rd in front of Wright.

But, we all know Willie "I like Veterans" Randolph wouldn't do that. ;)

Hmm, with all of the trade stuff, nothing here
about Pedro making his first rehab start tomorrow in Port St. Lucie? I know we still might not see him this season, but I remain optimistic. There's a pretty good article today in the NYT. The main interesting stuff had to do with his mechanics, curveball, and more info on what he was doing during his extended break in the DR, i.e. getting advice from his brother, studying video, and so on. In other words, Pedro doing lots of homework. There are good Pedro-like quotes, too. I always enjoy hearing him talk.

Pedro
I'm really excited. SNY is supposed to show his stint with St. Lucie tomorrow, which will be awesome on many levels.

Finally get to sit and watch a Mets game, and it should be a good one to watch!

Nice hit D-Wright!

Actually, of course, with Valentin's broken leg
he probably wouldn't have been back this year anyway. I'm not missing him.

Leaves with the lead; let's hope the bullpen can hold it. I'm sure Glav-o will bite his nails down to the nubs before this one's over.

How many pitchers does it take to get 3 outs?
If your Willie Randolph ... it takes at least three.  One to set up a run.  One to give up a run.  And one to explain to Tom Glavine why he wasted an effort.  What the heck is he doing?  If it was so important to win this for Tom, why does he not put in Wagner, who has said he would much rather come in, in the 8th inning then come in the 9th with no chance at a save. It was so important that with runners on 1st and 2nd in the 7th, they let Tom hit (with more then 90 pitches in at the time). Unbelievable!

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. (click to embiggen)
