Still think we need one more move before we can realisticly think about catching Philly.
I’d like to see about grabbing Johnson out of Washington. This would allow Manuel to platoon Murph at third and give Wright a day off in the second half when he needs it.

I still want Rios, but I doubt it happens with the Francoeur trade.
I really think Delgado will be back soon enough that Omar has to look for an upgrade to the OF.

I figure Delgado done for the year. He may come back in August be he’s not going to be as effective. Gonna take him at least two weeks minimum to get back to speed.

i would rather go after LaRoche .The last thing we need is another person on the DL
by Jadden Hopkins on Jul 12, 2009 2:29 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I wonder if you can limit his injuries by giving him every 5th or 6th day off.
Murph looks good at first and is a natural third basemen. Maybe it’s a stretch but I’d love to see what this lineup is like having Johnson hit behind Wright or Beltran when he gets back.

I turned on the game later. So is it set that Livan gets start against the Braves, or is there a possibility that he gets pushed later against the Nationals – against which he’s been great so far. I mean, the Mets have potentially 6-7 starters they can use for the Braves/Nationals series after AS. They can pretty much tailor the rotation against opponents.

Why would you?
You’re pretty much guaranteed to only get one if you throw home.

Uh, wasn't his fault
He gave up 1 hit. He did an excellent job.

And that one hit, IMO, Castillo could have had if he wasn't hurt.

Parnell
Was he really hitting 99? Pitch f/x gave him credit for it a few times.
by sjohnson125 on Jul 12, 2009 4:16 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
he was throwing hard
but the 99’ers weren’t very accurate. low or inside
by Pat Andriola on Jul 12, 2009 4:17 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
pitch f/x has clocked him as high as 100.9
by T Pac on Jul 12, 2009 4:18 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
that could have been worse
good job Parns.you still suck green

I don't care that the Mets still lead, this game should've been a laugher but we are the LaughingStocks

It wasn't set in stone
Look at the some of the games the Red Sox (a very good team) have played lately. I’m grateful to still have the lead.

nice inning boys

That seems to be their specialty
in the late innings. “We’ve already scored nine! Why would we want to score more?”

is lead off walks. Ugh!

Goddamit, Frankie
Another leadoff walk?

How does K-Rod walk Paul Janish to start the 9th down 3 runs?
My goodness.
by Pat Andriola on Jul 12, 2009 4:25 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
I get the feeling that he likes havin a guy at first
Wierd but I woder if he likes the possibilty of a DP ball and a play at two bases. Just in case he gets into trouble late in a count.

7-0 in the fifth, 9-3 in the eighth
Tying run at the plate in the 9th.
Why am I not surprised?

After Tatis's homer
Fangraphs had us at 99.2 chance to win

Well, now we're one out away
So it’s very high. But I would’ve liked to know what it was when they had scored a couple of runs and had bases loaded, 0 out in the 8th.

OK. We’ve played pretty well the last couple of days, and now the All-Star break is finally here.
