[Mr. Enigma]

Beltran's getting some decent reception in his return to New York. Seemed like more cheers than boos.

I don't see why he'd get booed. The Mets traded him.

 

[clemenx]

If Wainwright wasn't pitching probably no one would have booed him. Some people are traumatized with him.

 

[McNei1y]

I hate you rain. I really really do.

 

[BigJonsson]

Yeesh, the Jays blew that

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Braves are skipping Minor's start. Holla holla.

 

[McNei1y]

Well that was a fun Orioles game.

 

[mYm|17|]

Godzilla still got it

 

[Madtown_]

So, what's the deal with Henderson Alvarez, jays fans? He looks like he has good stuff (Gameday only, haven't seen him pitch) but barely can strike out 3 per 9 innings. What's up with that?

 

[eznark]

Goodell would have had Hawk executed.

 

[clemenx]

Johan has a no-no going. Today's the day!

 

[wsoxfan1214]

I wouldn't go that far. I don't think Selig should be bothering with it, he is certainly within his right. Commentators have been scolded for much less.

It's ridiculous. Let commentators commentate. The NHL and NFL, both leagues that AREN'T jokes rarely ever do it. If ever.

 

[Square Triangle]

Hahahaha

 

[sf2fanatic]

Damn Grandy Man Can

Def a boost for my keeper team

 

[clemenx]

Hahahaha

And this is your top prospect? I am disappoint

[Sealion88]

i really wish granderson wasnt that streaky, he could be a real beast

 

[darkside31337]

Godzilla still has absolutely insane power. That bomb he hit was crazy.

 

[clemenx]

Godzilla still has absolutely insane power. That bomb he hit was crazy.

Why is he on the field though? I find hard to believe Luke Scott could be worse than him.

 

[Y2Kev]

What is Sabathia's problem? big fat trash

 

[Sanjuro]

It's ridiculous. Let commentators commentate. The NHL and NFL, both leagues that AREN'T jokes rarely ever do it. If ever.

The NHL has the worst commissioner out of the major four. Goodell would kill you for looking at him wrong.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Of course he is, but he doesn't yell at commentators.

I haven't heard of Goodell doing it either

 

[RobotHaus]

We've got Jennings injured and his batting in his last series must have given him a bit of priority over Joyce. Probably going to be a few mix and matches over the next few games.

 

[Sanjuro]

Of course he is, but he doesn't yell at commentators.

Maybe not publicly, no. If a commentator is "hurting the shield" he absolutely will hear about it one way or another.

 

[darkside31337]

They haven't played Luke Scott in the OF at all this year. Matsui was playing LF during his minor league stint, the more comfortable option for now since Jennings should be back early next week anyway.

I think the craziest thing about the Matsui signing is the fact they are hoping that he hits lefties (which he's been fine at in his career). He's the only left handed hitter on a team loaded with them who doesn't have a crazy platoon split. Pena, Scott, Joyce and the switch hitting Zobrist all have significant splits.

But can't doubt Friedman. So far the signing has worked out pretty well. Should be interesting to see how Maddon makes the pieces fit once the injured guys start coming back.

 

[clemenx]

Mets power!

 

[Redux]

Okay Albert Belle, we get you're the most feared hitter of all time. Leave now so I can enjoy the commentary.

Gran Slam! "ya know" KIPNIS.

 

[Oozer3993]

I'm just gonna go ahead and credit Albert Belle for that grand slam. His aura made it happen.

 

[weekend_warrior]

Ugh, this has got bad written all over it. Boesch is a Yankee killer.

 

[The Frankman]

Johan has a no-no going. Today's the day!

clemenx you jinxing bastard.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

David Wright told the Mets today that he will not talk contract during the season. The Mets were supposedly going to offer him an extension mid-season.

 

[clemenx]

Hey I wrote that on the 1st inning! If he loses it now I won't take responsibility.

 

[darkside31337]

Yeah well David Price got a perfect game going! All Star Matt Joyce kept it alive with an awesome catch.

 

[Fenix]

Are you shitting me? 2 games in a row?

 

[RobotHaus]

Yeah well David Price got a perfect game going! All Star Matt Joyce kept it alive with an awesome catch.

Shh! You didn't say anything! David Price is just pitching a normal game, nothing special about it.

 

[The Frankman]

smart move, he'll get paid this offseason.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

smart move, he'll get paid this offseason.

Mets have a $13 million option on him for 2013.

 

[Fenix]

Looks like he's landing real tentatively, fuuuuck.

Edit: Damn, what a DP.

 

[The Frankman]

Mets have a $13 million option on him for 2013.

I mean he'll get an extension on the option.

 

[RobotHaus]

Thanks a lot Darkside!

(I jest)

 

[clemenx]

YOTU FOR US. This is going to happen.

 

[CygnusXS]

Jurrjens' getting destroyed again.

 

[The Frankman]

BLAH BLAH BLAH NOTHING TO SEE HERE BLAH BLAH

 

[darkside31337]

Aw bummer

 

[The Frankman]

AHAAHHAAHHHAHHHAHHA HOW WAS OQUENDO OR MATHENY NOT EJECTED??

Spoiler

The ump knows he blew the call

 

[clemenx]

In all seriousness, he already has 90 pitches, there's no way they let him finish.

 

[The Frankman]

In all seriousness, he already has 90 pitches, there's no way they let him finish.

Fuck him. He's pitching until his arm falls off.

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND I NEED THIS I NEED IT BAD

 

[Redux]

Damon will be on Sports Center top 10 tomorrow with that catch.

 

[clemenx]

DUDA

 

[Vargas]

DUDA POWER!!

 

[The Frankman]

LUCAS

POWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

5-0 Mets!
