no bueno

"I told him the next time he does that, I’m going to get my blade out and cut him, right on the field. Hey, I’m a gangsta now. You go gangsta on me, I’m gonna have to get you now."

is it possible for a baseball team to score fewer than zero runs?

He did this against Josh Johnson

Apparently he didn’t learn from his mistake.

This is just madness

With each passing day I am finding it harder and harder to find a reason we can win any ballgame with him as manager.

"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

Can I play then?

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.

of course not

ARGHenious needs to get his at bats. He is too valuable to the franchise to let him play in a league where he can actually hit the ball past the second baseman.

yeah that's what I thought when he said that

you might as well have a real off day tomorrow. That just makes tonight’s game that more important to win.

Over/under on balls that make it to the outfield by Mets "hitters"?

Would 4 be too optimistic?

I thought

in times like these you asked guys to suck it up a bit for the team. I mean, they played injured guys because they were depleted, Beltran, Reyes, etc. I hope Wright tackles whoever is supposed to play third and sends him back to the dugout. Did Patton say nope, I am gonna rest these boys, ya’ll hold the Ardennes by yourselves? :)
