…Wouldn’t it be good, as a leader, if David Right had a personality like Frenchy’s?
I think so.
Did you intentionally omit the “w” since we are not worthy of one?
…Oh, no C. I just noticed that after reading your response.
I think Frenchy’s probably more vocal — more up. Is that that important as a leader. I don’t know. It looks good to me though. :-)
lol that inning was pelf like
11 fastballs 1 slider lol
Nobody on the game thread tonight. The geeks must all be at the game. :)
this inning sucks
…Do you really think so DL? LOL
Great play Anderson. U need to know where ur second baseman is positioned
fuck this bullshit
lol
lol wow
LMAO
lmao
i really hate baseball sometimes
parnell vs. philly is gonna be fun
uk schedule release show tomorrow lol
pedro on sunday vs mets should be fun lol
the comeback…..starts next inning
Pedro going to the 9TH with a No-Hitter… the Mets fans would be loving him ha ha.
That might not happen though. :-)
it really is like we can’t have some good fortune like that big inning last night without being returned a shitstorm like that last inning
parnell is just like pelf
you can have a great FB but if u throw it like 90%, teams are going to catch on eventually lol
thx ump
This is also one of the best fastball hitting lineups in baseball. I think Livan would actually do good against the Braves. The junk pitcher is what kill them
Hey geeks. Thank god I don’t have live feed access, only box score.
Why was Parnell left out there? Is Jer trying to toughen up the kid, so he’s not soft like Ryan Church? :P
Parnell was the first one out of the dugout in the third. I think Jerry is drunk
lol lee has a nono thru 5 in philly
lee vs. parnell is gonna suckkkkk
…I assume the Mets didn’t seriously go after Lee.
I have never posted but read it nonstop. and i sitting here have an existential crisis. why am watching, online be it, a team out of it down 9-1, what is the purpose,
it is getting dark, up here in vermont the cold will be setting in soon enough, and my attena doesnt get fox so i will get no reprive getting excited over the thrill of oct baseball, even though the thrill is rarely there with the mets out. i was at the game for THE CATCH and was at the game for Johans game at the end of last year but it seems this team is down and out
bad johan better not make another appearance tomorrow night
you look at the comments on gameday comments and no one is here, at the game, i doubt it, the team is in a sorry situation, the injuries are to blame nothing else, for this season, i do not know how to account for the past 2 collapses, i can only think that the ball going through buckners legs (really it was bob stanley that blew it), was an amazing gift and we are now suffering the consequences of that good fortune and seeing the other side with the collapses and injuries
not like it matters
I have it on only because I promised a friend, a braves friend at that, to give him pbp while he was in class.
Congrats to Reid Gorecki, the Braves rookie, who grew up a big Mets fan.
Lists Todd Hundley as his favorite player. Dont here that everyday
although i am sure it has been said, the mets have missed a huge an opportunity, now many teams have had the players the mets have had the last few years, 4 studs and the last 2 years, a dominant pitcher and strong closer, but here we are octoberless,
it will be interesting the next few years, reyes and wright - will they improve or stay as amazing as they have been - will anyone rise to improve the starting pitching - i gotta believe the bullpen can be strong - and is the bench going to be of any importance
what will happen next year and year after?
I actually went to school with him lol
I knew that name sounded familar
Tim Redding looks sharp
LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Tim Redding needs to be out of baseball. Now.
half of this team needs to be out of baseball
I just read that thread on fugees about the dodger fan……they lit him up pretty good.
i dont understand why the mets would have to pickup any of wagners salaray, he COULD be amazing, and maybe that is just it - he could be but might not,
what can they expect to get in return
did the mets sign redding for next year too?
Wagner is not going to be a salary dump at all.
If the Mets trade him for anything less than top prospects, its a joke. Because we’re getting top prospects at the end of the season just by offering the man arbitration.
He’s not re-signing with us.
Redding is just a one year deal.
so next year what can we expect for starting rotation - johan (obvious), perez (are there any other options), pelfrey (just cause), then what niese, parnell, who knows what the hell is up with maine. i do not think that starting rotation will ever bring the mets to october
i agree, the mets have to get something decent back wags
what starters are free agents next year
Redding is still arbitration eligible believe it or not. He will be non-tendered
i cannot hear anyting on mlb.com in regards to the callers - you cannot hear the calls coming in? anyone else watching online having this problem
John Lackey is really the one I want us to go after in the FA market. Here is a list of FA wallylenny
keith is hillarious lol
its sickening that cliff lee’s pitching so well for the phillies…aboslutely sickening
Whats sickening is what little it cost the Phillies.
lackey seems consistent and strong and would be wonderful with santana, but then again it would be great to have benson back, he is the ultimate best ever
everything about it makes me want to puke
lee being awesome is no great surprise
that they got him for nothing is the worst part
Cardinals picked up Smoltz
the phillies have done what the mets could have done, strong line up - both teams, decent pitching both - so why have they been able to complete it while the mets have been empty
yeah no doubt..his awesomeness wasn’t in question…its just the fact that he’s being awesome for the phillies that pisses me off.
that they got him for nothing enrages me
i hate baseball right now
i might pack in the Geek until after the WS
metsfansince71, jesus i have been reading this for several years and not posted, now i post in desperation and your leaving
i think we should temporarily use the geek for football talk
looks like there were talking about the rotation, what did they say - johan, perez, pelf, neise, and maybe parnell
that will never win - too young and too empty
great, it is like a bobby v spring training game
haha, trust me, i doubt i’ll be missed much in here
I’d miss you, 71.
i am sure you will miss nothing, but here i am, mets fan since 82, born in 75 cognizant in 82, i am seeking some solace, some meaning, (i assume once i return to teaching next week that may help) - but here i see someone who is here so often and where does it leave the readers, what do you think is the future of the mets for the next 2-3 years, metsfansince71
Andy Green is awesome.
yeah what the hell, arent there any younger guys to take a look at rather than a green
Sean Green is even more awesome.
future - tell me your views for the next 2-3 years - i am looking for what regulars think,
who is one first
who is in left
starting rotation?
any ideas
any hope?
anyone, anyone tell me what you see for the future
What I want for 1B is a power hitting 1B. I don’t mind bringing in Nick Johnson on a one year deal. Sign Delgado on a cheap deal. Let them compete for it.
Left Field. Abreu on a cheap deal.
Starting rotation, minor league deal for Bedard, Sheets.
how old is abreu and what are his stats this year
He’s older but the risk is mitigated by a cheap deal.
delgado will goto the american league
Man, the stink is heavy tonight, isn’t it my fellow geeks?
bedard and sheets are both injury prone, we need stability and health, duh
You subtract that 8-run second inning and the Mets still lose by five runs.
If they’re healthy they are both better than anyone else on our staff besides Santana.
sheets and bedard would be worth the risk of a minor league deal
i’m not sure either takes one, though
That’s a big if, Future!
That’s what minor league deals are all about.
Sheets might need to take one.
Bedard definitely will need to take one.
A big if, especially with our training staff and doctors and the bad juju and all.
well, actually sheets would
Doctors are fine. Training staff is not. Training staff is likely on the way out.
I dunno about more project pitchers.
Tell me the juju is on the way out, too, and I’ll be okay with ditching the trainers. Personally, I think it’s the juju more than the trainers. And personally, I think I’d like to see Jerry gone, too.
there is little on the free agent market for pitchers, so should the mets risk it with some of these injury pitchers, go for lackey, what
But we’ve brought in projects not worth the risk. I mean was Tim Redding worth the risk? No. Was Freddy Garcia worth the risk? No.
If we’re going to do risks like that we better make it worthwhile.
I’d like Lackey. But the Mets don’t have any money.
Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
