I don’t want him because the quality of his stuff has gone down big time. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t have as many saves from next season onward as he has had up to this point in his career. His motion screams TJ, and we already have one closer who has suffered TJ surgery, I think we should pass.

I don’t think the Mets will care to much amount spending money to get F-Rod, espescially since they are going to be making it hands over fist moving into the new home. Question is will be Mets want to give up the draft choices we will to give the Angels for him. That is the key question.

3rd most despicable sports personality: behind barry balco & roger the ‘roider
They haven’t gone 50-50 in the Pac-10 in a long time. But they usually lose at least one game they shouldn’t in conference play, it drives me crazy.
To be honest, Mark Sanchez is a better QB than John David Booty ever was. He has more arm strength, more charisma, more everything.
If Booty is pulled the moment he hurt his finger, USC beats Stanford and plays Ohio State for the title last season.
The only problem with Carroll is he has an insane amount of loyalty to players, especially QBs…Booty wasn’t the best QB on the Trojans last year.
I couldn’t believe how much people were shitting on Sanchez before this year…he was the #1 QB recruit in the entire country by scout and rivals when he came out of high school, he was the Parade Player of the Year too.

yeah booty the past two years wasn’t helped out by his recievers at all, they would drop at least 4-5 balls a game, the lost to stanford his receivers dropped 13 passes.

Ready about how Ambiorix Burgos when Coo Coo 4 coco puffs on his lady friend. Sounds like he needs some kind of therapy, but then again woman probably said something she shouldn’t of said.
He wasn’t helped by the WRs, but it said something when Sanchez who ran the practice team showed more chemistry with the WRs than Booty did.
Comment posted bygriffyuscon September 14, 2008 at 12:24 am (#843767)
yeah,but if you make the throws your recievers have to make the catches, they dropped touch downs, and lords knows how many first downs over the past two years. I do like how Sanchez gets the ball downfield a lot better then Booty did, Booty only seemed to let it loose when we were behind.

Oregon was very good last year, if Dennis Dixon wouldn’t of blew his knee out against Arizona they would of been the #1 team in the country, probably going to Title game, and Dixon was favored to win the Heisman before his knee buckled. LSU and Tim Tebow should pay for his medical billing.

Schoeneweis should never ever pitch against a righty, and Heilman should never pitch against anyone.

they won’t find that out until after the operation though. Usually when athletes have knee troubles from an operation like that and can’t come back it’s due to nerve damage in the knee

What would anyone give of any value for Heilman, though?
Even a half-eaten sandwich is only HALF-eaten.
I mean… is there really a market out there for set-up men with an ERA creeping up to six and when he isn’t pitching terribly, he’s weeping bitter tears about how much not starting tastes like a diet of ashes?

I think a lot of teams are going to try Heilman as a starting pitcher instead of a reliever. Heilman would do himself good in getting another pitch.

I guess we could keep him for another year and see if he can’t rebound. After next season he will be a free agent right? Maybe he will rebound and we can get some draft choices out of him.

If the only relievers left over from The Collapse on this team could be Smith and Feliciano, that’d be great, thanks.
The first Collapse was bullpen-driven and if a second comes, history will show that it was bullpen-driven as well.
Maybe getting rid of Mota and Sele wasn’t enough to eradicate the Suck Infection. Heilman and Schoeneweis were high criminals in that mess as well, maybe a clean sweep is required.

If Heilman did his job people would like him, but you start costing your teams game and pretty much sucking for the entire season which he has then your not going to win over many fans.
Comment posted bylittlefallsmetson September 14, 2008 at 12:50 am (#843798)
I just can’t stand him because he’s terrible… and he’s so in denial that he believes he’s not only good, he’s starter good, despite crapping out home runs more consistently than those machines in arcades that poop out a plastic egg with a toy in it for a quarter.
Attitude? Good Lord, I’m still a Milledge defender, I don’t care about your attitude.
Play well and don’t get suspended or arrested.
Heilman could have all the attitude in the world if he was good and I could shake the sanctamonious little crybaby’s hand for it.
But sucking is bad.
And being in such denial about sucking that you demand to suck more often so as to prove that you don’t suck… that’s just the everloving end.

If you can’t go one inning without giving up a homer consistently, you’re not a starter.
You’re just not.
The dude has had ten million chances to pitch consistently.
You have to succeed, even a little bit, before you can start.

Nice to see the lack of PT hasn’t messed Murphy up.
murphy! smokes a single b/w 1st/2nd hole
All that Murphy does is hit. I will be surprised if this kid isn’t a .300 hitter at some point in his career.
another one off the foot of the pitcher! but this one towards 1st and no play can be made on jose
No kick-save for the Braves this time.
church skies one to LF, easy play. inning ovah
ayala on to close this one out
Church has no business being in there
kotchman smokes one past a diving delgado
he got his uniform for ya willie, i mean jerry.
uniform “dirty”…
Kotchman is swinging a hot bat tonight.
Frenchy hits an easy DP ball!!! turned nicely by the boys
2 down.
Tailor Made Double Play!
Ayala’s sinker is so nasty.
Come on Ayala. Get this guy out.
PIITB
Yee-ha!
Go Mets!
PIITB!!!
NIESE!!! huge
lets win tomorrow too! go ollie
Put it in the Books!
Niese= the man.
This Latin tinted reliever got it done for Niese
ayala pwns
Game.
later boys and girls
In summary:
Schoeneweis can suck Satan’s **** in hell. I don’t use him or Heilman in a pressure situation before Wright and Murphy have both pitched an inning.
…and in hell, Castillo can be what he kneels on.
HOWEVER.
Huge showing by Niese. If the Mets can survive their own bullpen and make the post-season… and Maine is still out… I make Niese the #4 starter.
In the words of Doc Brown, I figure… what the hell.
wel, our mets did what they had had to do gain the classic old-fashioned dh split;
notre dame fighting amphibians had a great day vs skunkbears.
syracuse did well today, too (not)
F-Rod is one strike away from setting the saves record.
F-Rod/K-Rod breaks the record, blowing Ibanez away.
k (f) rod is great but we beat him & he is awful expensive. the heck with him. letuce find internal solutions
I don’t want him because the quality of his stuff has gone down big time. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t have as many saves from next season onward as he has had up to this point in his career.
