Lineup
Castillo, 2b
Cora, ss
Beltran, cf
Sheffield, lf
Wright, 3b
Tatis, 1b
Church, rf
Santos, c
Santana, lhp
Jerry Manuel indicated he would like to play Gary Sheffield all three games in left field, and right field would be divided between Ryan Church and Fernando Martinez, with Church getting dibs if he performs.
Daniel Murphy should get one start at first base this series.
by Michkin on Jun 9, 2009 6:22 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
At least its something that resembles other things that are of a higher quality
Than the Quad-A lineup we’d been running.

Lineup really isn't that bad.
Tatis needs to start hitting a little better though
If Church has a good series they need to send F! down to get more at bats
by metsman07 on Jun 9, 2009 6:32 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
As long as F! and Murph each get one start I will be fine.

Concerning the following lineups
Jerry Manuel told reporters that he will essentially go with the hot hand when deciding who to play at first base and the corner outfield positions.
Even though he says that, I want to see if he’ll give up on the lefty-righty matchups in favor of the hot hand.

was going on today about how everyone makes excuses when it’s obvious that Ortiz is a steroid user who stopped and now can’t hit.

Wanted to post this again
b/c I don’t know if people saw the posts a ways back on the board. The Mets with bases loaded the past two seasons:
2008: .216/.265/.371
2009: .224/.250/.397
That’s pretty awful, 2 years in a row.

just drafted Voltron’s cousin with the 28th pick. If he’s like Carlos but with a heart, they might win like 8 world series in a row

they could win 10 in a row

is he literally “Carlos Beltran’s cousin” (as Dave Cameron wrote) or just “has been compared to Carlos Beltran” as the Oakland A’s Twitter feed suggests?

I’m not gonna get into an internet pissing match, but I’ll just say that I have plenty of baseball knowledge. I was actually at a game (I think it was against Boston, but my memory could be wrong on that count) where Leiter butcher boy’ed 2 balls to the warning track in right, and the whole stadium thought they were gonna be out. That was the first time I ever saw Leiter pitch in person and I thought he was a great hitter – I was obviously very wrong.
I just didn’t connect your reference to Santana – I thought you were complaining that the Mets don’t play with the same kind of heart Leiter’s teams did or something.
