PrintCincinnati Reds at New York Mets, Jul 5, 2010 7:10 PM EDT
Aaron Harang was scratched with back issues and replaced by lefty Travis Wood. Jerry Manuel responded by removing Josh Thole for Rod Barajas and shuffling the order around.
With Fernando Tatis hitting the DL, the Star-Ledger reports that Henry Blanco is the backup corner infielder. Stay healthy David Wright and Ike Davis.

Is it just me, or have we been in a lot of huge deficits recently?
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
Partly just you...
We’ve also had big leads (that we’ve mostly blown)
Manuel's ejection was a big distraction
I liked seeing it, but that was the beginning of the end..then the shitty umpiring after that totally killed the mood. Say all you want about how Manuel has a macho obligation to throw a tantrum, but if everyone had kept their cool instead of breaking down over what was a 1-run deficit, maybe we’d still be in this.
He had to get ejected
You’re not showing respect to your pitcher if you don’t go apeshits over that call
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
eh I can't blame him for being pissed about that
even the umpires gave him a lot of leeway before they tossed him
http://www.doublebobbyjones.com/ -Double Bobby Jones: a Mets blog
Totally disagree.
It’s his obligation. It’s not macho, it’s protecting your players. It was a completely incorrect overrule. Can’t just let that shit go.
How was it completely incorrect?

"I want to win now, not 3 years from now. That's my stance." - Kevin Burkhardt
I disagree strongly
He had to argue & get run there. No one kept their cool there except David, but Jerry has to stand up for his players there. I don’t particularly like Jerry, but I agree with him 100% in getting himself tossed in that situation.

i think it’d rather have Lee.
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson
I'd say Amare is a little better
Hopefully Amare’s best skill is recruiting star players (LeBron, Carmelo)
I don't really think Amar'e is better
plus Lee comes at a cheaper price, and without the knee concerns.
I also don’t really see how he’d recruit Carmelo, when the knicks won’t have the cap room to sign him if they sign another max, or do you mean if they only sign Amar’e?
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson
They can't sign Melo til next summer
and after Curry’s contract is off the books they’ll have the money to sign him.
Geaux Eaux's

so basically
they can still sign another max contract this summer and still have the money to sign Melo next summer
Geaux Eaux's
by NawlinsOriole on Jul 5, 2010 9:50 PM EDT up reply actions
No they can't
Curry only clears ten million, so when you count in the escalations to all their current players under contract, including one more max, they’d only have like 6-7 million in cap room. Carmelo’s max will be 17.7 million.
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson
Actually you're wrong
Curry’s contract would take off 12 million

that still doesn't come to near enough
with contract escalations
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson
no I'm wrong it would
i forgot they won’t have a draft pick. if they sign two maxes it will leave them with exactly 43 million on the books next year. Usually draft picks come out to 2-4 million dollar holds but without that they’ll have enough as long as the cap comes in at 60-61 million.
I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson

I want Jerry Manuel fired now, not three years from now. That is my stance.- John Peterson

And the absolute worst part of this whole thing is, I decided, let me read the book, let me try as hard as I can for the first time in my academic life, so I was looking through the stuff that was really giving me trouble, and it’s just the slides with more words and better grammar.

He’ll just get a “feel” for how people should bat in the order
A starting five in the order:
Reyes SS, Bay LF, Davis 1B, Wright 3B, Pagan CF would be killer. And Wright and Bay would be pretty much interchangeable, except that we would like this to get Wright more value per at bat with his hitting this year. It even keeps the LRLRL crap Jerry buys into most of the time.
