Can't wait!

Should be a great duel. Hopefully Santana will baffle the young D-Back hitters.

If Johan can keep the D'Backs in the park

then I like his chances. The longball has been his only weakness thus far.

Fight J-Roll the A-Holl!

Unfortunately

Thats always gonna be his weakness, but if we can score it won’t be a problem. In my mind he’s had 1 bad game. He only gave up 1 run on a solo shot in the Atlanta game.

I can see

Santana getting a shutout today. Eat your heart out Yankees

Don't feel so bad

I posted a bulliten on myspace a couple weeks ago, and said the Mets should flat out cut him..lol.

there goes the shutout

lucky it’s not tied. Santana does give up the long ball.

and evidently

now throws a lot of wild pitches.

by MAN in the BOX on May 4, 2008 5:26 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

cause Schneider couldn’t stop a bull in the dirt with a basket. He has not been a very good defensive catcher so far

Santana

think it’s his last inning?

by MAN in the BOX on May 4, 2008 5:59 PM EDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

why baseball sucks

the highest paid pitcher in baseball can only go 6 innings and can’t win the game. We’re moving into a situation where it’s wonderful when a pitcher goes 5 innings. Problem is you need a deep, good bullpen in this day and age and their aren’t enough quality pitdhers around so you have to use Triple A pitchers like Smith. Baseball just aint what it used to be. I’m fed up

What the hell was Burke thinking? I’ll take it though.

We've got ourselves a ball club, the Mets of New York town!

to get him, but it was a bad play

Only a single for Beltran leading off the 9th?

No home run? What an asshole. He’s so not clutch.

Lets go!

Can we please get a bit of a win streak going here. Two out of three in Arizona is great, but how about a little follow through this week….please….

I was inspired by Eric's comment that Olerud had the best 3-year run as a Met outside Carlos Beltran to look at a few different Mets, and when I noticed that two of my all-time favorite players (Alfonzo and Strawberry) were kinda screwed by having (relatively)bad seasons in between some really good seasons, I decided to see which Mets had the best 3 seasons, period (non-consecutively). Beltran still comes out on top, but my all-time favorite player Alfonzo comes in 2nd place, and him and Straw are the only two to have three 6.0+ WAR seasons. Also interesting that Hundley comes out ahead of Gary Carter, Cleon Jones almost finishes ahead of Mike Piazza, and Joe McEwing doesn't make the list.
