Open Thread - Game 41: Mets vs Yankees (05/19/2006) on WB11

Source: mlb.com
Is it just me, or would anyone else prefer the Mets just be playing the Phillies or Braves this weekend instead of the Yankees?
From the official pre-game notes:
- The Mets are 7-0 in the first game of a home series and 11-3 overall in series openers.
- After 18 home dates this season the Mets have drawn 705,245 fans; last season after 18 home games the Mets drew 597,975 fans, an increase of 107,270 fans.
- The Mets and Yankees have played a total of 156 times, with the Yankees holding a 92-63 edge with one tie in the series ... The Mets have faced the Yankees in 48 regular season games, with the Yankees holding a 29-19 lead.
- Willie Randolph is only the second man to play for both the Mets and Yankees and then manage the Mets ... Yogi Berra is the only man to play for both the Mets and Yankees and also manage both squads.

you know what else is scary?
Tom Glavine.
also, I have to give Mike and the Mad Dog some credit, I just heard three great interviews with Delgado, Wagner, and Nady.
They piss me off sometimes, but I have to tip my hat; so far today they have been pretty good.

I don't know what Penny's is
I guess 'what the fuck' would have been better, but I didn't exactly expect a good outing of Gonzales, so it was more an expression of resigned exasperation.

This way, you still have everyone to pitch tomorrow and Aaron is stretched out a bit in case Minaya decides to put him in the rotation when he sits down to discuss the rotation.

However, you need to stabilize the rotation. Plus, Heilman has still has some upside potential. Who knows what he could be capable of in the rotation?
