I’m not really feeling like 3s gonna do it for Niese, so let’s hope they can keep the pressure.

I'm tempted to trade for Castillo

If the Mets will send him to me and pay his salary for the next three years, he can be my personal valet.

'Catsmeat!' he cried. 'I see it all. It was that chump, Catsmeat.'

by Catsmeat Potter-Pirbright on Sep 13, 2008 9:04 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

sure

But then when people ask “whatever happened to Luis Castillo?”, I can say “he’s over there, putting on a kettle for tea.” Alternatively, I can wait until some other team ends up with an injury at second base and offer to trade him for a case of beer or something.

Really kept the Braves hitters from hitting the base-ball, which I believe is the goal in this game.

I'm doing a little study on the NL East and thought I'd share an interesting little tidbit. To all of the self-loathing Mets fans/lazy 'MLB insiders' and journalistic parrots who have 1) Condemned the entire Mets organization as a joke 2) Written off this core's impressive run to date and 3) Deified the Phillies as unstoppable juggernauts w/ no chance to lose this division: Yes, those wins are weighted towards '06-'07 and yes, the Phillies' are more recent but the fact remains that no other team in that span can even come close to the Mets total of days in first place, which should be garnering a lot more respect than it has. If only because we still have nearly the same core in place that has clearly had a lot of success and health-willing can very easily do so again in 2010.
