Holy shit.. Santana is raping us
 
Time to change the approach guys. It's the second time through the order and they still look clueless against the changeup.

11 Ks. Holy shit.
 
Damn David Wright just made one heck of a play killer.
That double play came out of nowhere.:)

God loves the Mets.
7 1/2 infront of the Phillies,and didn't the Braves loose again.:lol
11 games out?

:D
 
Imagine how history would be changed if Alice actually ended up in Boston?

Yankee fans would be the ones LOLing.
Sox would have no WS championship.
Dr. Strangelove would be crying.

In 85 years, we will be talking about the Curse of A-Rod.
 
A-Rod will turn it around. He can't keep this up forever.

And Mets fans, anyone else fear that Heilman has jumped the shark. It seems like he has struggled since he found out that he wasn't getting the starting job. And if that's really the case, wow what a baby. He won't be long for the Mets world with that attitude.

Hrm, good ideas. But wouldn't Harang (who actually has more fantasy points than Roy O at this point) be more worth it because of the offense he has backing him?

Well you'd get more wins, but you'd still lose out on all of the other pitcher categories. The way the Reds are playing he'd get a win while having a high ERA/WHIP/etc.

If you really needed another OF at this point, I'd do Roy for Soriano straight up.
 
Yeah I'm worried about Heilman, I don't know if its just a slump or if he is frustrated over seeing guys like Solar and El Duque grab starting jobs. He needs to get it together because he's so damn vital to the bullpen>Heilman>Sanchez>Wagner> could be like 2006 version of the Nasty Boys of 1990. I think its just a slump since Sanchez has looked human himself the last few weeks. They have been used alot so you figure were going to see these spells come up now and then,but they need to keep blazing on regardless. Were looking so damn good right now with a 7 1/2 game lead,keep the lineup running smoothly and injury free at all costs. Maybe pick up a few extra relievers to help out these guys from burn out as well. No Dontrell or Zito trades either,keep the youth for next year baby. Humber,Pelfrey,and maybe bring up Kepinger now that Matsui is gone.

All in all there isn't not much to like,other than the pen getting rocked lately. Hopefully it evens out as we enter the break.

then I think you need to see THIS, my friend.

And with that Mets win, the avatar bet "Magic Number" is 0. Game over.

Regarding Dirty Heilman this is his first full year relieving, cut him slack. You expect guys like Wagner, Dirty Sanchez, Bradford, and Oliver to be used to the workload. Heilman may have hit the wall here (63th game of the year).
 
Awesome. Couldn't have ended any better.

Can someone please kill Tavarez?
 
And for the record I'd kill to have Arod on the Mets. It still pisses me off that we lost him to the Rangers. I think he catches way too much heat,maybe as a Met things might have been different I dunno. You look at Beltran though and he was in the same boat-booed unmercifully last year and early this season,then he turned it around. Both players have alot to live up to but theyre just human and can't wear the big S cape every game they play in.
 
Tavarez is a worthless pile of shit. Pauley is more effective. Shit, Rudy is more effective.

He's only good for punching things, and even then he still ****s things up. He once lost a fight to a telephone.

Very true. If I came off sounding bitter it wasn't my intension,sorry. I love the guy and am glad we have him. He was mediocer the first few years he was up but its paid off since then. He'll get over his slump I'm sure,some of us(me) just need something to nitpick about since as a Mets fan we've been in that boat a billion times,and now it feels weird not to complain for once.:lol

Yeah, that's true. No pen can be lights-out all year. This is normal. We gotta find something to worry/complain/moan about, right??
 
Whenever the Giants are down by 1 in the 9th with 1 on ands Bonds up to bat but the other team decides to pitch to him instead of walking him, you know all is right in the world.
 
i love wang.

oh and the last few innings of the boston/minnesota game were awesome. torii hunter made an awesome catch and that almost-double play was pretty amazing too.
 
I don't know who did the avi bet, but I recommend something out of the Descendants of Darkness avis. Or Gravitation. Maybe Kyoh Kara Maoh. I can get you some samples. :lol
