    lol

    Castillo walked in his first at-bat and then left the game for the GCL Mets.

    They didn’t want to bring him back after a rain delay. Seriously can someone play Tonya Harding to his Nancy Kerrigan.

    Come on guys, we all just KNEW that Nady would be awesome for the Yanks if they traded for him.

    Yeah that might be enough to make I-Rod look for the old Winstrol needles.

  40. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:12 pm (#793702)

    I don’t really care how nady does for the yanks, but I do think it’s unfortunate that the mets now have 3 catchers and 4 3bs (3 of whom are parading around the OF on a regular basis). It would’ve been nice to pick up an actual OF - but nothing was available (and worth it)

    Aaron Rodgers must need a hug tonight. You’re the starter, hmm he Aaron you have to beat out legend and people won’t accept that you did it fair and square if you do. He must be counting the days until FA.

    I only care because I started rooting against Nady once Mets fans started pining for him as if he was The Mick.

    Well Nady is really a third baseman too Mookie.

    I irrationally began hating Nady as a Pirate though… haha

  52. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:16 pm (#793711)

    I did too, but then my dad made me pick up nady for fantasy last week, so i’m ok with him right now (yes, my dad and I co-manage a fantasy team!)

  53. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:16 pm (#793712)

    yes, my dad and I co-manage a fantasy team!

    lol that’s awesome!

  54. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:17 pm (#793713)

    My Dad couldn’t pick David Wright or Jose Reyes out of a lineup.

  55. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:17 pm (#793714)

    Well Nady is really a third baseman too Mookie.

    Haha, is he really or are you kidding? I know he plays some 1B…I was definitely laughing about how they were looking at Blake for OF when he is almost exclusively a 3B

  56. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:18 pm (#793715)

    What a play by Hamilton.

  57. Comment posted by Doc believes! on August 4, 2008 at 11:18 pm (#793716)

    Yeah X came up as a third baseman.

  58. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:19 pm (#793717)

    Nady definitely played third base in college and coming up the minors if I remember correctly.

    (do you like how I said definitely and then hedged at the end just in case someone could proce me wrong. so I’m pretty sure, let’s go with that)

    Yea, i went to ireland for a summer in my first year of this league and didn’t have internet access so i asked my dad to monitor and he fell in love with doing it. He sucked at first but he’s gotten really good at it. he still types w/ two fingers but he loves it!

    haha, I should also mention my Dad has never been on the Internet. Moms got really good at the computer though. She rocks the two fingers too.

    Hell, one my best friends is a lawyer and he rocks the two fingers on the computer. I don’t know how he does it but he pulls it off.

    ha, I never knew that about nady… no wonder he’s not a good OF.

    I’ve going to have to teach my mom in the next few months. They’re moving far away and it will be too hard to call and get all their plane tickets and other internet needs met. My dad won’t even try.

  71. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:25 pm (#793727)

    hahaha it does look cute

  72. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:27 pm (#793728)

    my dad didn’t know how to use a computer at all when i first taught him. he also screwed my team over that year b/c he didn’t realize there was an innings cap and he had some trouble changing hitters in and out at first. But he’s gotten good at it now and I’d even say he does the majority of the lineup setting and stuff

  73. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:30 pm (#793729)

    I’m so jealous, mookie. That’s great.

    I’m pretty much jealous of anyone that got taken to baseball games as a kid and had a parent explain the game to them. I think that’s really cool.

  74. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:32 pm (#793730)

    yea, it’s actually really fun to do it with someone too - especially since the season is so long. My mother hates it though - we are constantly talking fantasy around her.

    how did you get into baseball, danny?

    Do mets pitchers lead the league in grand slams allowed?

  89. Comment posted by Danny on August 4, 2008 at 11:38 pm (#793741)

    I love how everyone hates the Mets for all the handshakes, yet every other team has emulated us.

    Nobody rocked the elaborate handshakes like that before us.

  90. Comment posted by Doc believes! on August 4, 2008 at 11:39 pm (#793742)

    Assist to Joe Girardi(the greatest baseball mind evah) for leaving in Marte to pitch to the righty after he walked the bases loaded

  91. Comment posted by mookie03 on August 4, 2008 at 11:39 pm (#793743)

    ha me too dep - remember when he singlehandedly gave us one of the games when we played them?

    and did the announcer say that was their 4th walkoff in 8 games? I must’ve heard wrong…

    yay, the mets face a really good pitcher tomorrow - that’s great news! Obviously, the mets have really good numbers against him. What a puzzling team…
