Is Duda also playing 2b? I thought that was the Jerry Rulez.

When asked Thursday if he had entered the World Cup pool, Carter said: "No. I need to hit more home runs."
If be fired, you mean not fired then

Arias in the 6 hole
I guess the swinging roller and that strikeout on the wild pitch clinched it for him.
how the hell can he get away with batting arias ahead of thole

Yea it makes sense to put the free swinger in front of the light hitter
He wasn’t getting strikes to swing at anyway

Do they put a warning about that?
Otherwise lawsuit city. Also, when I worked at a lab in college there was pure ethanol for doing what we did. They kept that under lock and key.
its labeled as 99% pure or somesuch thing
and they list possible trace impurities so no lawsuits. The “100%” stuff is horrendously expensive and usually kept pretty well guarded as you say.

It'd be the kind of move the Mets never make
Acquiring a good player, despite the fact that his position is already “filled”. They probably see Bay-Beltran-Pagan and think any scrub will suffice as the 4th and 5th OFs.

gary has a lot of bitterness inside him
he positively detests the Yankees for dismploying him once
He's angry at having to be in 80 year old press box to watch two terrible teams play a meaningless game in September
when he could be at home watching his beloved Giants.

Yeah I love The Office
Even if it’s gotten worse. So I watched Parks & Recreation and hate it.

I do not enjoy it either
Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.

Great find
How cheap are the Mets, that they couldnt get him a first class ticket.

Plus he is going to be in a shitload of trouble with the Delta people.
by aparkermarshall on Sep 3, 2010 4:42 PM EDT up reply actions
Yeah seriously
Maybe Delta dropped the Mets once the Mets dropped he-who-will-not-be-named.

There's no point in 1st class from NY to Chicago.
I got bumped to 1st class on this route once because of my winning smile and it was like…a martini and some extra peanuts. I’m not complaining about the Mets saving money in any way.
yeah
but coach is true hell. Its no better than being on a crowded bus.

I flew coach to New Zealand this past winter....
It was Quantas which made it a whole lot better but man did that flight suck.
JetBlue doesn't have first class
Only one class, and its better than coach on most airlines. Definitely better than Delta.
Oops...
Quote for the Deadspin comments is thus:
Omar has had it with all these people pointin’ out his mother fuckin’ mistakes on this mother fuckin’ plane!
oh thats even better

whoa, Duda's got a hell of an arm
The one thing I liked about Frenchy was that he could throw bullets once in a while. Good to see that we’ve still got a guy who can do that.
Frenchy usually threw bullets
His arm just didn’t make up for all his other deficencies.
Pitching coach Dan Warthen said, "He literally has a rubber arm," before he agreed figuratively was the appropriate adverb.
If its one of Keplers laws, i'm obligated as a scientist to believe it

How are they holding Feliciano's arm together at this point???
Glue?
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
I feel like we will load the bases but not score a run
Ryan Miller was the true MVP.
I really hate Jerry.
114 Ks in 63 innings???
This should go well
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only GRISSIONZ
The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
I actually thought he might wind up with 25.
kind of disappointing
if there was such a thing as a marmol
it would pitch like this crazy person
Marmots are very adorable...
I saw a few out west once.
until this happens

Another almost comeback completed
We must lead the league in them

The 2010 Mets- Hey, we may suck, but what did you expect?
well we can't even beat Mets Central
Hey, wait! I'm having one of those things. You know? A headache with pictures?
Our suck on the road cannot be matched

Well he's pretty big
You should cut him into small pieces before trying to eat him, or at least chew properly
Carlin
doesn’t do anything but ask leading questions for Bobby O to analyze and expand on.
Sorta like the straight man to the funny man. He’s just the set up man.
