us cable subscribers have got the privilege of choosing between home and away broadcasts. So I can watch SNY. The dish folks regularly get this gift while we cable folks suffer. So maybe they are trying to woo you.

I don't blame Endy
That was a rocket off of the bat and the fact that it somehow stayed in the air and got over Endy’s head is a testament to Jay Bruce’s incredible strength.
Give Bruce props, leave Endy alone.
If we are to be angry at anyone, let’s be angry at Johan who is throwing batting practice.
Now let’s go out and get some runs!

Sexton and Blanton land with the enemy, ElDuque and Pagan are setback, Pedro’s getting a cortezone shot, Santana thought this was batting practice.
Then Tatis does it again. He has revived this team some nights all by himself and should get mad props.

Only if Manny is playing first base
With a flyball tendency pitching staff save for Smith and Pelfrey, and if we retain Ollie and Pedro which are possibilities…Manny would screw us so badly.
If Omar remakes the pitching staff to be primarily groundball pitchers and gets competent defenders for second and first, then yeah I could live with Manny doing his best statue imitation in the left field of Citi Field.

That’s the only reason. I think Omar is desperately trying to get anyone to take him for next year but very rarely do you see owners allow their GMs to waive players with another year left on their contract. It just rarely rarely happens.
