I love
playing Right-handed pitchers. We actually put up a formidable lineup!
"We have to find a way to play better, there's no doubt. Overall. I'm not pointing fingers at anybody. Offense, defense, pitching -- we have to find a way to play better. The reality of this is, coming here to Pittsburgh and being swept -- personally, I feel embarrassed." -- Carlos Beltran
Schneider
Quietly OPS’ing .899 since his return. Granted it’s just 26 plate appearances.

I'm not the type of guy who is home run happy
but a couple dingers wouldn’t kill this team before we get out of town
I wonder if we're the only team
not to hit a HR to RF in Yankee Stadium in a 3 game series this year.
Tim Redding is suck in career
ouch
fixed, sort of

Flores went 2-4 with a triple today
maybe he’s heating up
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
yay
it’s tough to be so young in that league
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
Fernando tore up Low-A at the same age right?
Not criticizing Flores, he is only 17 and still has a long career ahead of him. I was just saying
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
Mejia pitching tonight
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
adam jones is good
and wearing redding out
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
him and markakis are a good young outfield duo
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
yeah
too bad nick markakis is terrible defensively
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
Not really
This year his #s have been awful but he had three seasons prior that varied b/w above-avg and stellar in RF. Too soon to call him terrible out there.
he's a pretty good real player, too

Got to love Huff's Bel Biv Devoe at bat song
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
2-0 now on huff
get out of this alive, redding
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
Doesn't every throw Castillo makes
look like it has nothing on it?
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
nice DP
that was unlucky for redding from huff, but that’s what happens when you walk the second hitter after getting ahead 1-2, hang a nothing fastball to markakis, and get behind huff 2-0
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
good news
jays are up 3-0 on the phils in the 1st
that is good news
that popup was not
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
I think that means
Philly has Toronto just where they want them . . .

It just updates the Iphone operating system
improvements like cut copy and paste, multimedia messaging (when ATT gets on board), turn by turn directions (again when ATT stops sucking)
It just gave the iPhone some new features it didn’t have before
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
I think so, but not one hundred percent sure.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.
Damn you Sheff
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
That play last night where Huff dropped the popup
Why is it that they’re willing to excuse Huff by simply saying that he’s not a good fielder, but for Roberts (also not a great fielder) it has to become a character issue with Keith saying he looked like he didn’t really want to go get the ball?

Still bad enough to have Redding up here?
Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.
His last two starts have been pretty sharp
but he’s, like 1-6 with a 6.31 ERA. He’s probably the worst pitcher evar.

I saw the numbers, but he's gotta be better than this bum.
Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.
I was being fascetious
he’s pitching in front of basically no defense (2d baseman Mike Lamb?!) and, from what Meddler and others have posted here, his peripherals have been very good. Our problem is that we’re assuming Omar/the front office will see “1-6 with a 6.31 ERA” and assume he’s just a terrible pitcher.

Wind musta been blowing hard
seemed like F! was getting knocked back and forth and all around
rod barajas homer
4-0 jays
so there’s that
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
it's not really tim's fault
grounder that had eyes (and luis castillo has negative range) was the first run, and that ball is a flyout in most parks
however, that’s why a pitcher can’t put guys on base via walks.
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
there was a big debate in an article i read today
do you guys think that delgado or reyes is more important to the mets to come back?
i agree, i think it's delgado
we are really lacking power right now
we are, yes
but I think you can pick up a 1B with pop in a trade more easily than you can pick up a player who brings the blend of skills that Reyes does
is this in the post or the news?
and why are those options mutually exclusive?
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
The Mets have no range up the middle with Cora and Castillo
They’ve continued to score runs without the long ball
Good question
They need Reyes at the top of the order, but they also need some home runs desperately. Right now I’d rather have Cora in place of Reyes than Murph instead of Delgado.
Really, Jerry?
Mejia gave up a run

How many fans you think want to see F! traded after his poor showing so far this year?
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
His performance gives me hope
Not sure he’s gonna be a superstar or power bat (he should probably move to CF in 2 yrs) but he’s shown the ability to hit the ball the other way, play a good OF and can be a gap hitter. The fact that he’s 20 makes me very confident he will be a nice piece for a good team, not a guy to build around.
eh
whom do you replace him with now? reed?
give him some PA up here.
Jerry Manuel...stop being....stupid...
does anyone now anyplace where you can look up players pitches per plate appearance?
I’d like to see whether these long PAs Cora has every now and then are really that big a deal in the scheme of things

WHAT THE F! ARE YOU DOING JERRY!!!
I would love to know the reasoning behind hitting for F! there. There is NO reason. Tatis has lost what little power he showed last year. Martinez is tough to double up, unlike Tatis (as seen there). NOT TO MENTION…F! had a nice level swing that resulted in a double earlier in this very game.
Send F! to AAA, he doesn’t deserve this crap.

It doesn't matter what people think about Cora
because he’s our SS until Reyes gets back. So, let’s hope he does a respectable job until then.

This
Is why I hate our rotation at the moment. Santana, Pelf, REDDING, Livan, Nieve/Maine. We don’t have our best three available for three straight games. It just plain sucks. It makes it very dificult to sweep ANYTHING.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT BLAME THIS LOSS ON REDDING AT ALL, I blame it all on Jerry’s decision to PH for F!
"We have to find a way to play better, there's no doubt. Overall. I'm not pointing fingers at anybody. Offense, defense, pitching -- we have to find a way to play better. The reality of this is, coming here to Pittsburgh and being swept -- personally, I feel embarrassed." -- Carlos Beltran
Jerry's doing a fine job managing.
The poll said so!
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
I like that move
As long as we can put him right in front of or behind Pelf.

I'ts just immensely frustrating
They can’t seem to get on the same page. If they score they don’t pitch well. When they pitch well they don’t score. Now the bullpen guys are taking turns being lousy. They get nothing from the bench. I know they are hurt, etc. but this team looks incapable of going on any sort of run at all.
