E-Rod

 

[Kuroyume]

Errorod strikes again! :lol

 

[Lathentar]

Arod with Error number 20.

WOW, what a play by Posada, what was Vlad thinking!

 

[Miguel]

:lol @ Vlad laughing afterwards

 

[Cloudy]

A-Rod = second in the Majors in game winning RBI yet he gets treated like a bum :lol

He shouldn't be treated like a bum but let's not fool ourselves into thinking he's clutch either. Look up that runner on 3rd less than 2 outs stat.

 

[CajoleJuice]

I believe there's a stat called "close and late." I forget what the requirements are, but A-Rod does not fare well in that situation either.

 

[Desperado]

Last four games..

Backe (W, 3-1) 7.0 IP, 1 ER
Oswalt (W, 9-7) 6.0 IP, 1 ER
Clemens (W, 4-4) 6.0 IP, 1 ER
Pettitte (W, 11-12) 7.0 IP, 2 ER

I hope Hirsh can give us something similar tonight.

BTW, the bullpen during the last four: 10 IP, 1 ER, 2 SV, 18 K

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Wily Mo Pena is ****ing awesome.

That's all I have to say at this time.

 

[Meier]

Surprised he is only 24. I'd like to see him get the cycle.. that's always neat when someone does.

 

[siamesedreamer]

Jesus Christ, seriously. Take your defeat like the few Braves fans who came to the mlb.scout.com Mets board and wished us well after the 3-game sweep of the Braves; Like a MAN.

****in Betemit.. :\ Oh well, we'll take a 2-0 lead after one!

A little piece of me just died



Reading through the posts I missed, it looks like I missed quite a show. And since I know you were all so concerned about me, I was up at my cottage in Michigan all week, and as someone said, I was pretty much drunk(or on some other illegal substances) the whole time.
I did see 2 of the 3 Yankee games though.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

MANNY.

Record with GQ Brady avatar: 2-0

 

[Meier]

Ugh, Dodgers keep wasting RISP. Come on JD.. bases are loaded, at least get it out of the infield. Nice to see Penny knock in another run when he's pitching.

 

[Desperado]

Holy shit, Astros DFA'd Preston Wilson to get Hirsh on the roster. Interesting.

 

[Meier]

How's a big ol kid like James Loney get 4 triples before his first ever HR in the majors? Wild.

Top 3rd: San Francisco
- P. Feliz struck out swinging
- E. Alfonzo struck out looking
- M. Cain struck out swinging

Bottom 3rd: LA Dodgers
- A. Ethier struck out swinging
- W. Betemit struck out swinging
- R. Martin struck out looking

Heh, that doesnt happen very often.

Hardly....the Mets fans here act like their team is one of the best ever assembled. I was simply pointing out that they're not even gonna win 100 games in an extremely weak competitive season.

 

[The Frankman]

To a man, if you ask every fan of a first place team here they all want 30 Game leads, since that means a Division Win. We can't all be that lucky, I guess. Also, your reply had NOTHING to do with the quoted post and definitely sounded bitter. You are waayyyyyy overreacting to a post here. Though I heard no one utter your accusation, I will say it is one of the best . . . one of the best METS teams ever assembled, that is.

Also, little tidbit - Mets are 69-45. They need only to go 31-17 to reach 100 wins. Consider the easy schedule and the Mets pace of winning 2 out of every 3 games, it would be VERY POSSIBLE if Willie wasn't already experimenting for the postseason and resting guys. Cliff Floyd could play if it was necessary, but Mets DL'ed him to be safe. Willie Randolph won't let his guys quit on him though; last year was a great indicator.

You don't have to win 100 games to win your divsion anymore, and still there is about 50 games left Mets could win another 30.

What!? Seriously!?

Just read the article. Apparently Lane didn't clear waivers.

 

[Wellington]

Let's close this one out Saito.

 

[Meier]

Booya, Dodgers make it 3 in a row. 14 out of 15.. how sweet it is. Gotta do something about all the LOB we've been having.. ugh, 7 in one game for JD Drew!

 

[NomarTyme]

Yeah, JD Drew been struggling for while now, even though he had a RBI single today.

 

[Lathentar]

Uggg... Astros 1st and 3rd no out and don't get a run. Pathetic!

 

[Lathentar]

What a play by Ensberg! Come on Hirsh... get out of this.

 

[Lathentar]

Alright, great job of Hirsh to get out of a crazy jam like that.

 

[R_GILL]

So far so good, but I still have no confidence in Downs, and he probably doesn't have much left. Hold on bullpen, please hold on.

 

[Mashing]

Great job by Hirsh to get out of that jam

 

[The Frankman]

Scoreless streak over,
No-hitter over,
Shutout over.

Thank you for the Effort, John Maine.

Mets -- 3
Nats -- 1
Top 5th

 

[Lathentar]

Then back-to-back... then... a 2 run homerun... ouch.

 

[Link]

Your team isn't even gonna win 100 games in one of the worst competitve years in decades. A 30 game lead don't mean shit.

And what does that say about your team?

 

[Fifty]

Baseball card tradin' Patty Neschek strikes out Rios. If we weren't up 3-0 I might mind it. Thankfully we are so I can admire it.

 

[R_GILL]

Neschek was just plain nasty. Jesus Rios had no chance.

 

[The Frankman]

:lol :lol :lol

 

[R_GILL]

God damn Neschek. Just struck out Johnson on 3 pitches.

 

[Fifty]

Quick, send him your hockey cards before he becomes the superstar he is destined to be.

 

[Fifty]

:lol Twins living up to their name by hitting into 5 double plays so far tonight.

 

[R_GILL]

Good work League.

 

[R_GILL]

Blue Jays must hate Ryan. Not a save situation anymore. Well I guess with Schoeneweis coming in, it could become a save situation very quickly.

 

[R_GILL]

LOL, 6 double plays now. Jesus.

 

[Fifty]

Twins keeping with the theme of giving up twin outs. 6th double play. They can resume their wildcard hunt on monday once we leave. Sorry about the delay.

 

[Kuroyume]

Heil Heilman!

 

[R_GILL]

9 shut out innings by the bullpen today. I am scared, what is going on.

 

[The Frankman]

Heil Heilman!

ENTER SANDMAN time . .

 

[Kuroyume]

Billy is money...

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Wooooooooooooo

 

[Fifty]

That was a nice save. A man by the name of Tom Gordon is in the midst of screwing his team of a possible win right now in Philly. It's a shame we have no Philly fans on GAF.

 

[The Frankman]

Billy is money...

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Wooooooooooooo

Billy hit 99 MPH of the gun

No win for Maine, but Mets win.

30-17 now gets 100.
