7/7/10: Three years ago Carlos Beltran made an amazing catch in Houston

[Future]

And we won in I think the 16th?

Lets get it done.

[DL]

an excruciating 16 inning game? no thanks

let's just finally pwn BRONSON somehow

[Kneel Before Zod!]

yo Mods, just FYI:

"derisively-intellectual mets chatter" is wrong. don't hyphenate an adverb. just saying. not a big deal. just makes all of us look like fucking idiots.

lol

good job jonathon

[Kneel Before Zod!]

you shame me. you shame yourself.

[Chris in Ga]

Quick.


Who would u rather have as your team's manager?

Jerry Manual or Dusty Baker

[Future]

Manuel. Dusty Baker ruins the future, Jerry just for the most part ruins only the present.

[Future]

PAGAN! 1-0.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

fuck you, monotheism

[Chris in Ga]

Pagan!

[DL]

pug-on!

[bahktin]

Grammarians the world over love that home run! :)

[Future]

Bah, two one pitch outs in a row.

[DL]

wtf man

what are these guys doing

[Ramon Suarez]

How can people actually want Frenchy to start over this guy?

He plays excellent CF and has a .822 OPS hitting in this park.

[Ramon Suarez]

you shame me. you shame yourself.

Wack line from a wack movie.

[Dep]

did pagan go yard? fuck i didnt realize it was game time

someone takes their LSATS and wants us to bow down to his brain

DEP-THINKS-NOT

[JayTee415]

wtf man

what are these guys doing

that crap needs to stop..... it's on Hojo to talk to some of these guys about that.

[DL]

"A buddy just told me he saw that LeBron James was apparently at Sparks in NYC with Amare Stoudamire and Allan Houston this evening. Hmmm..."

-seth everett

LOL

[JayTee415]

pug-on!

On hail...

[Ramon Suarez]

Niese is the piece!

[DL]

niese = stras

[Future]

That's the stupid backhand again.

[Ramon Suarez]

David that was so week. He has to stop that matador, ole shit.

[Dep]

LOL

a buddy = 15 year old NBA blogger adam kennedy or something

also a tweet about cablevision helicopters flying out to NY practice facilities or some shit

he is coming

[Ramon Suarez]

LOL

Woop there it is!

[DL]

damn you david

[Dep]

ATL1
PHI0

philth threatening tho

[Kneel Before Zod!]

ummm, kneel before zod?

[DL]

he = anthony randolph plus some warriors turds

[littlefallsmets]

There is little to argue for Frenchy over Pagan in the short term, yeah.

If Pagan hit a prolonged slump, I might bring Frenchy back in for another try but... short term, there's basically no question.

[Peter H]

Nice play, Cora.

[Ramon Suarez]

This guy's stance is so awkward. You have to be super strong to do it at this level.

[Ramon Suarez]

ummm, kneel before zod?

Dope line.

[Peter H]

There's a case for a platoon. Frenchy hits lefties better than Pagan does.

[Dep]

ummm, kneel before zod?

still stolen from me

YOU KNOW IT

[Future]

That was a very sick play by Cora.

[Ramon Suarez]

There is little to argue for Frenchy over Pagan in the short term, yeah.

If Pagan hit a prolonged slump, I might bring Frenchy back in for another try but... short term, there's basically no question.

Short-term and long-term Pagan is the better player.

[Future]

Nice inning by Niese.

[Dep]

French ONe can still hit lefties

nothing wrong with starting off in a platoon, seeing how it goes

[Ramon Suarez]

Niese might actually be a frontline starter....just sayin....

[four3two1]

Dope line.

Niese is our ace

[Kneel Before Zod!]

pagan is better than frenchy in every aspect of the game except throwing the baseballs

[DL]

Niese might actually be a frontline starter....just sayin....

i didn't know he would be good!

[DL]

Niese is our ace

yeah but is he A MAN

[Dep]

Johan is gonna teach Niese how to golf in the offseason

he'll be a man after that

[Ramon Suarez]

I'd rather that they platoon Frenchy with Tron if Carlos needs a spell.

[Dep]

pagan is better than frenchy in every aspect of the game except throwing the baseballs

and hitting lefties

[DL]

why do ppl think the knicks need a point if they get lebron

douglas can be the "point guard"

[Future]

Johan is gonna teach Niese how to golf in the offseason

he'll be a man after that

Then tennis? :ducks:

[Dep]

I'd rather that they platoon Frenchy with Tron if Carlos needs a spell.

yea, maybe a multiple guy platoon thing. bay aint above a day off neither

nothing wrong with giving pagan a day or two here/there to keep him fresh

and frenchy's bat is useless on the bench with no PT. then lets just cut him, which i'm fine with

[Dep]

Bron is gonna play point and never pass it

OMG GIVE THE BALL TO GALLO

[Ramon Suarez]

Johan is gonna teach Niese how to golf in the offseason

he'll be a man after that

LOLOLOLOL.

[littlefallsmets]

Oh, I mean, I'd be open to a platoon, sure.

As for long term with Pagan, I dunno. I wouldn't wanna pencil him in for years, he doesn't have quite the track record I'd want for a long term committ but...

This season, absolutely.

[DL]

lol @ the nats pwning the padres so far

[Dep]

I like pagan in CF long-term, i'm a believer right now. last year he was the man too. he's blossomed IMO

[DL]

Bron is gonna play point and never pass it

OMG GIVE THE BALL TO GALLO

LOL

he'd be a star if lebron lames wasn't so racist/selfish

[Future]

You start Pagan in RF, you have Frenchy play two days a week to rest Beltran and move Pagan to center.

That's all Frenchy gets.

[Ramon Suarez]

why do ppl think the knicks need a point if they get lebron

douglas can be the "point guard"

I think it was a weakness of Cleveland's that they didn't have an efficient ball-handler at the point when LeBron left the game. And now with D'Antoni's offense, you especially need that.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

is beltran's contract up after this year?

[DL]

oh great, arroyo back to his usual bullshit vs us

[Ramon Suarez]

You start Pagan in RF, you have Frenchy play two days a week to rest Beltran and move Pagan to center.

That's all Frenchy gets.

WORD
ON
THAT

[Kneel Before Zod!]

Lebron didn't want the ball in the big moments against the celtics. he ain't a winner, and i'm being serious.

[DL]

I think it was a weakness of Cleveland's that they didn't have an efficient ball-handler at the point when LeBron left the game. And now with D'Antoni's offense, you especially need that.

well according to the experts on fugz, toney douglas is a future supahstahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, so we're set

[Kneel Before Zod!]

do yall think this greenwich, ct stuff means he's going to NY?

[Ramon Suarez]

Man, this fucking guy throws nothing but junk.

[DL]

Lebron didn't want the ball in the big moments against the celtics. he ain't a winner, and i'm being serious.

neither did kobe

[Future]

do yall think this greenwich, ct stuff means he's going to NY?

Could mean NJ since Jay-Z lives there.

[Dep]

Next year zodder. mets may look to trade him this offseason, we'll see.

A lot of stuff points to the Knicks/BRON right now. A LOT.

[Dep]

Nets are out of it. Them letting Boozer go to Chi-Town over $5M confirms that IMNSHO.

[DL]

could mean he's just in town for melo's wedding

[Ramon Suarez]

well according to the experts on fugz, toney douglas is a future supahstahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, so we're set

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.



Lebron didn't want the ball in the big moments against the celtics. he ain't a winner, and i'm being serious.

They said the same thing about your golden boy Kevin Garnett for years in Minnesota after countless first round exists. Now Boston fans and the rest of league lick his cullo as an MVP type player after he was surrounded with the right talent in a good situation.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

Jay-Z lives in greenwich? weird.

[Dep]

ok, deppy going home. c u in a bit. play nice

GO METZIEZ

[Ramon Suarez]

Could mean NJ since Jay-Z lives there.

LMAO

Jay-Z lives in greenwich? weird.

1 of 20 houses. lot of rich ppl live there

comparing KG to KING JAMES is a bit silly

and no one says KG is MVP of anything

Holy crap Ike.

Ike loves that railing.

kg had bigtime mvp talk his first year in beantown

[Ramon Suarez]

comparing KG to KING JAMES is a bit silly

Your right...King James is a way better player.

[Ramon Suarez]

kg had bigtime mvp talk his first year in beantown

YUP. People forget.

[Future]

KG is a winner, intense as hell, and he wants the ball in clutch situations, at least he did in his prime.

Never seems like LeBron does.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

MVP of the Celtics that year...maybe

[Ramon Suarez]

Best pitch in our staff?

A.) Niese's cutter
B.) Pelf's split-change
C.) Dickey's power knuckler
D.) Johan's changeup

What do yallz think?

[Future]

Damn that ball was crushed. 1-1.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

and kobe was allowed to not hog the ball because he had actual good players on his team

lebron thinks he is jesus christ. he needed to save the cavs.

[Ramon Suarez]

Fuck Brandon Phillips.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

johan's changeup

[John]

changeup

scrap it lol

[Kneel Before Zod!]

lebron's name is King James on twitter

he's such a douche

[DL]

bahhhhhhhh

[Ramon Suarez]

and kobe was allowed to not hog the ball because he had actual good players on his team

lebron thinks he is jesus christ. he needed to save the cavs.

Lebron is an egomaniac. Just like Kobe.

[John]

he throws ONE change all game and its in the left field stands lol

[Kneel Before Zod!]

lebron is way worse than kobe in the ego department

but at least he's not a rapist, which is nice

[John]

Pitch Type Avg Speed Max Speed Avg H-Break Avg V-Break Count Strikes / % Swinging Strikes / % Linear Weights Time to Plate
CH (Changeup) 80.60 80.6 8.92 0.40 1 1 / 100.00% 0 / 0.00% 1.4074 0.458


kills me

[Ramon Suarez]

he throws ONE change all game and its in the left field stands lol

Heh. I know...

:-(

So yallz think Johan's change is supreme? I should have included Pelf's 2-seemer over his split-change.

[Ramon Suarez]

lebron is way worse than kobe in the ego department

but at least he's not a rapist, which is nice

Word on that.

And at least his family likes him....sorry Kobe...

[littlefallsmets]

Niese ain't never gonna be an ace but... holy crap, dude could be a really primo #3 and that's all I'm askin'.

[DL]

every other nba player who could do what lebron's doing right now would. pretty dumb to single him out for it, even if he is a huge egomaniac and pretty much a douche

[Ramon Suarez]

Niese will never be an ace the way Pettite will never be an ace....which I will most definitely get behind.

[Ramon Suarez]

Go Niese!

[John]

hes pitched like an ace since coming off DL lol

[littlefallsmets]

Anyone even a little bit famous from that young is gonna end up a MASSIVE douche.

You just can't be a national figure at 17 and not walk out of it absolutely ruined as a human being.

See: LiLo

[DL]

lmao

[Kneel Before Zod!]

how can you "single lebron out" when he's the only one doing it?

[Future]

WTF. WTF Jerry. Why the fuck do you have the contact play on.

[Ramon Suarez]

Ugh....

[peejay]

Niese!

[DL]

come on!

[John]

I'm tired of Lebron

Lets go back to BABIP

[JayTee415]

Shit !!!!

Just read that Jake Peavy is gone for the season with a chest muscle tear . Does that mean that the Chisox now become possible buyers/renters for Cliff Lee ??

[Ramon Suarez]

how can you "single lebron out" when he's the only one doing it?

I think the point is that he's the only one who can do it.

He's a douche, no doubt. I don't care if people like him or not cause I don't care for him.

But DL is right. He's par for the course.

[Ramon Suarez]

Shit !!!!

Just read that Jake Peavy is gone for the season with a chest muscle tear . Does that mean that the Chisox now become possible buyers/renters for Cliff Lee ??

Peavy is a waste. I always hated that douche.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

it would be pretty fun watching the NY media pick apart lebron's loser-ness the second something goes wrong

[DL]

how can you "single lebron out" when he's the only one doing it?

wade and bosh both did this stuff at a smaller scale. ppl forget kobe trying this stuff in 04 in the pre-social networking days

[Peter H]

Shit !!!!

Just read that Jake Peavy is gone for the season with a chest muscle tear . Does that mean that the Chisox now become possible buyers/renters for Cliff Lee ??

I don't think so. Seems like their farm system is already too depleted.

[John]

He has his share of high-profile advocates. For example, he has a close relationship with Kentucky coach John Calipari, who nearly recruited Mr. Stoudemire to play for him at the University of Memphis. Mr. Calipari often uses Mr. Stoudemire as a teaching tool with his players, especially those who appear reluctant to put in long hours over the offseason

Well this clinches it

Amare friends with Cal
Lebron friends with Cal
Amare is in NY
Lebron is going to NY

its right there

[DL]

it would be pretty fun watching the NY media pick apart lebron's loser-ness the second something goes wrong

lol

like all our stars are "losers"?

[four3two1]

Anyone even a little bit famous from that young is gonna end up a MASSIVE douche.

See: LiLo

yeah but LiLo's bisexual (and flashes some nice skills in the hummer department), whats Lebrony bringing to the table?

[Kneel Before Zod!]

right, i agree that others would do it if they could. but lebron is the only one that can, and the only one that does. so i'll pick on him. i also don't like that he gets all this attention for winning nothing.

air jordan 4eva

[Ramon Suarez]

it would be pretty fun watching the NY media pick apart lebron's loser-ness the second something goes wrong

Its going to be rough. And I predict that Lebron's era in NYC will be more disappointing than fulfilling due to the high expectation he and the city have placed on him. I don't think he is mature enough to handle it to be quite honest.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

i mean...why pick on anyone when there are other people that would do the same shit? WHERE DO YOU DRAW THE LINE??"?

[John]

Niese > Pelfrey

[Kneel Before Zod!]

if you give him another blue-chipper he'll win in NY. but any star player can win with two other star players.

[Ramon Suarez]

right, i agree that others would do it if they could. but lebron is the only one that can, and the only one that does. so i'll pick on him. i also don't like that he gets all this attention for winning nothing.

air jordan 4eva

I see your point. But the funny thing is that Jordan also went through the exact same criticism during the Isaiah-Pistons era.

[JayTee415]

LETS GO BATS !!!

[Kneel Before Zod!]

i pity lebron (not really) if he pulls the same shit in the playoffs with the knicks

[DL]

no star player has ever won without at least one other star in the last 30 yrs. except for hakeem, but that doesn't count

[littlefallsmets]

Lebron's gonna go wherever it best fits his abililty to project an image that makes him the most ancillary/advertising bank down the road.

If Manhattan is really gonna make him that much more money, he's gonna go there.

If maintaining the "local boy made good" image is gonna make him more money, he'll stay in Ohio.

If getting rings with a dream team is gonna make him more money, he'll go to Miami.

If I could project in a crystal ball which of those things would make him the most marketing bread in fifteen years, I would tell you where he's gonna end up.

[Ramon Suarez]

if you give him another blue-chipper he'll win in NY. but any star player can win with two other star players.

The Knicks are already a playoff contender with him and Amare. But I think it will take more than just another star player. I don't like D'Antoni's system nor do I think Amare has the longevity to fufill his contract. We essentially have a PF who doesn't rebound.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

but lebron james is the best basketball player that ever lived. he should break the trend.

[Ramon Suarez]

no star player has ever won without at least one other star in the last 30 yrs. except for hakeem, but that doesn't count

I agree. Even then he needed Drexler the year after.

[Dep]

1-1? BOOOOOOOO

Phillips HR? meh

So did Ike have another railing catch? what happened there?

[DL]

i pity lebron (not really) if he pulls the same shit in the playoffs with the knicks

well he's basically done as much ewing has in the playoffs already with possibly worse teams (i don't really care about reg season records, those were pretty crappily constructed teams)

[John]

this has turned into NBA geek lol

[Dep]

Bron has 3 superstars tho

Gallo is really the best player in the league hiding in a fragile, slow italian body

and dont get me started on douglas! BALLER

[DL]

i hate arroyo

why can't we ever hit this douchebag's junk

[Dep]

said the guy who watches for 12 year olds to commit to UK

[Kneel Before Zod!]

i'm listening on the radio. sorry, dep.

[Dep]

Ewing won finals games

Bron hasnt

[Ramon Suarez]

Shaq and Jameson are NOT superstars at this point in their careers.

[Dep]

no worries Z,thnx

[Dep]

Gallo is like 106 Shaqs

[JayTee415]

LOL at Votto's glove ....


Ike's line drive out put a hole in the webbing.

[four3two1]

this sentence starts out sounding really wrong...and only gets worse :p

[John]

said the guy who watches for 12 year olds to commit to UK

your one coach behind that was billy g lol

now we just wait because kids are beggin to come anyways lol

[Kneel Before Zod!]

but lebron is supposed to be on a different level than ewing. expectations will be 10x higher.

[littlefallsmets]

non-NBA talking point: Arroyo is Spanish for "creek"

[Ramon Suarez]

Ewing won finals games

Bron hasnt

Ewing didn't win them....he wasn't even the MVP of that series for the Knicks. He was grossly outplayed by Olajuwon and should have never even made it to the Finals as the Bulls should have beaten them if it werent for ref interference.

[Dep]

John looks like Matt Harvey in real life

JUST SAYING

[DL]

Ewing won finals games

Bron hasnt

weaker opponents/better supporting cast

i don't want to make it sound like i'm a bron fanboy or anything. i actually hate the guy. but i don't like RINGLESS arguments for individual player worth

[Dep]

Ewing didn't win them....he wasn't even the MVP of that series for the Knicks. He was grossly outplayed by Olajuwon and should have never even made it to the Finals as the Bulls should have beaten them if it werent for ref interference.

well just in terms of on his record, that's what i meant

Bron is 0-X and to say he's had the same success as ewing is not true IMO

dats all

[Ramon Suarez]

Anyone remember that series against the Bulls where Ewing missed two freethrows to tie the game against Chicago? Hubert Davis had to bail him out on a phantom call 3-point foul call against Pippen.

[Dep]

expectations are ring or bust, WITHOUT QUESTION

he will get 1 year IMO, they can make the playoffs and falter

after that "LeBUST" will be the headline

and if he turns into a lil girl that doesnt want the ball in the playoffs in NY - WHOA MOMMY.

Bron better ready for the hate. cuz he's gonna get plenty

and 4 other cities are going to hate him bigtime.

I personally dont think he is ready for it

[John]

I hope Lebron picks like Chicago lol

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

Shaq and Jameson are NOT superstars at this point in their careers.

I agree, Jenna Jameson isn't the same after that botched surgery on her hoo-haa.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

it's the way lebron has gone out in the playoffs. no grit.

[Dep]

COME ON AC

DO YOUR JOB

it cooled off a little, COME ON

who's this lebron guy ??
:rolleyes:

C 'mon guys , save it for tomorrow.


LGM !!!!

[Dep]

it's the way lebron has gone out in the playoffs. no grit.

like a BEEATCH

[DL]

my argument is true when you compare their careers over the first 7 seasons. ewing was playing in a stronger eastern conf though

also arroyo is gay (can i post on fugz again now)

[Dep]

who's this lebron guy ??


C 'mon guys , save it for tomorrow.


LGM !!!!

this is fair

this is a game chatter

[Kneel Before Zod!]

if lebron is literally supposed to be the next jordan, comparing him to players like ewing and...well, anyone but jordan, doesn't work. he is supposed to be in a class of his own. no excuses.

[Ramon Suarez]

it's the way lebron has gone out in the playoffs. no grit.


That was KG and Jordan at the same points in their careers.

[John]

I suppose this is ok

after all yall put up with the UK stuff lol

[DL]

ewing was supposed to be better than jordan coming into the league. why do you think they rigged that lotto for the knicks?

[Dep]

nice niese!

Did Jordan have any titles at this point in his career? Did he even make it to a Finals at Lebron's age?

[Kneel Before Zod!]

LOL ramon

show me a playoff game at any time in jordan's career where he bitched out and didn't want the ball

[littlefallsmets]

I don't know how anyone could accept the nickname Corky after the disabled character on "Life Goes On" being named Corky.

One of my best friends in high school, it took him years to shake the nickname "Corky" and all the dude had was a stutter.

[Future]

Whats new with you guys?

[Dep]

oh wow, the NBA cap was set $2M higher than expected

[JayTee415]

this is fair

this is a game chatter

understood ....but it's like 85 % Lebron/NBA.

W/E !!!!

all good, carry on.

[Dep]

age is misleading because of when Bron came in the league

he doesnt get a pass for not going to college

YOS is the fair comparison IMO

[Dep]

understood ....but it's like 80 % Lebron/NBA.

W/E !!!!

i was supporting you, i think we should chill on the Bron talk till after the game

its tough to turn where conversations go tho. nature of it all

[John]

niese > strasburg

no question

just without the strikeouts lol

[Dep]

i'm done talkng bron for right now tho

come on boys, tie mets game. we got later and tomorrow to kick it around

[DL]

the only time bron really "gave up" in a playoff series was vs. boston this season. pretty inexcusable and obvious even with that dumbass delonte west shit

i can't really say that about his other losses

[Kneel Before Zod!]

was jordan as hyped as lebron coming into the league? i honestly don't know.

[Ramon Suarez]

LOL ramon

show me a playoff game at any time in jordan's career where he bitched out and didn't want the ball

You aren't very familiar with late 1980s basketball history are you?

Jordan's Bulls were owned by the Pistons and bitched on a consitent basis between 1988-1990.

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

If Lebron really wants to perform a miracle for a team and a league he'd undergo a sex change and win a title with whatever WBNA franchise hasn't won a title.

[littlefallsmets]

My hope for this game is that Niese goes eight and leaves with enough of a lead where Iggy or Valdez or Nieve or Taka or Elmer is used for the ninth.

I want THREE days of straight rest for the important parts of the bullpen.

[Dep]

Toll-e!

please dont trade him

[Future]

Nice hit Toll-E.

[JayTee415]

Thole... lead off single


LGM.

[DL]

jordan was a rich man's iverson his first few yrs, then got stomped on by detroit as the bulls got better before all the GREATNESS

Niese is throwing an absolute gem and yall talking Lebron? lol

[Ramon Suarez]

If Lebron really wants to perform a miracle for a team and a league he'd undergo a sex change and win a title with whatever WBNA franchise hasn't won a title.

[DL]

alright fuck bron and lame ass scowling after every foul call that goes against him

let's fucking kill this folksinger

[Dep]

you guys do see my tag, right?

it is VISIBLE, right?

;)

[Ramon Suarez]

jordan was a rich man's iverson his first few yrs, then got stomped on by detroit as the bulls got better before all the GREATNESS

Frontrunners unfamiliar with revisionist history forget how Jordan was seen as a talent who never could win a title between 1986-1990.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

You aren't very familiar with late 1980s basketball history are you?

not really. i was born in 1984.

but i'm still confident in saying that jordan never tried to hide during a playoff game. he wanted the ball always and forever.

[DL]

LOL

[Dep]

come on jesus

you better keep hitting, you're on the block

[Ramon Suarez]

If you had a choice....Feliciano or Carter?

[Dep]

JESUS

there ya go

lets go boys

[four3two1]

Niese is throwing an absolute gem and yall talking Lebron? lol

nobody even bit on the LiLo bisexualness and BJ talk...everyones gone lebromo (thats a step above homo)

[littlefallsmets]

I will admit, part of my dislike of the idea of trading for Lee is how much I love the idea of having...

Tejeda and Thole and Ike all as starters next year and... Santana, FA #2 Starter, Pelfrey, Niese and Meija as the rotation.

I've gotten used to these good young guys, I'd rather see where they'll take us.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

i stop now

stop baiting me, ramon. :)

[Ramon Suarez]

not really. i was born in 1984.

but i'm still confident in saying that jordan never tried to hide during a playoff game. he wanted the ball always and forever.

LOL.

[Future]

Back to back singles. Feliciano kept trying to go oppo and finally got his pitch and doinked it to left.

[Dep]

If you had a choice....Feliciano or Carter?

tough choice

I need to know how viable Tron is in CF, if he is, then jesus being able to play CF is kinda not that needed

i dont know. i say carter for now. but i like that dude a lot lol

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

I predict a bunt.

[JayTee415]

okay..... jesus slaps it the other way.....1st + 2nd no outs...

the bumping of old dw threads on fugz will be responsible for his 0fer + error today

me and LFM agreeing way too much lately!

::feels forehead::

[Ramon Suarez]

A bunt?

[littlefallsmets]

Feliciano over Carter.

Feliciano can play three defensive positions pretty well. Carter can't play defense worth a damn anywhere.

[DL]

tough choice

I need to know how viable Tron is in CF, if he is, then jesus being able to play CF is kinda not that needed

i dont know. i say carter for now. but i like that dude a lot lol

carter brings unspeakable grit to the clubhouse

[Future]

Ugh, now Morgan is actually saying its cool that Cora tried to get on base with the bunt and that's ok. NO. Sacrifice or don't, but don't try to bunt for a hit with two on no outs.

[Dep]

the bumping of old dw threads on fugz will be responsible for his 0fer + error today

did they do that today?

i hope they caught MGF saying his K rate was the biggest problem on the team, NOT REALLY

[John]

LOL

ugh i have to watch cincy telecast.........they play his song ALL THE TIME

"and we're together againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn"

god its in my head lol

[Kneel Before Zod!]

1st and 2nd no outs?

[Ramon Suarez]

me and LFM agreeing way too much lately!

::feels forehead::

Youth movement FTW!

[Ramon Suarez]

1st and 2nd no outs?

Yes.

I hate this fucking guy and his fucking junk.

[DL]

did they do that today?

i hope they caught MGF saying his K rate was the biggest problem on the team, NOT REALLY

nah there was a bump of a really dumb thread not an insufferable, must make superintelligent contrarian point thread

[John]

Tejada is a starter next year?


what? lol

[Future]

Well that works like a bunt.

[Dep]

2nd/3rd 1 out Z

[DL]

fucking blah

are there any FA pitchers we can even afford this offseason

[Future]

Cora hit a weak GB to first that advanced the runners, Z.

[Dep]

come on niese

get lucky, hit a sac fly

[Dep]

fucking blah

are there any FA pitchers we can even afford this offseason

they better be cheap!

[Peter H]

You can't say Tejada is a starter next year. He just looks totally overmatched by big league pitching at this point.

[Future]

come on niese

get lucky, hit a sac fly

Hell get lucky and hit another double.

[Kneel Before Zod!]

we could probs get by with our rotation as is

we'd probably need beltran to be really good, though

[Dep]

Tejada is a starter next year?


what? lol

I'm game, love that fucker

FUCK!

COME ON JOSE

[Future]

Dammit Niese, that was horrible.

[Ramon Suarez]

UGH.

[littlefallsmets]

Considering the open-secret financial turmoil in the ownership, committing to a youth movement is basically the only way the Mets are gonna be good for the next coupla years, I reckon.

Eventually, SNY will refill the owners' coffers but we're in a coupla lean years maybe. Youth and youth's cost certainty is the remedy.

[Dep]

we could probs get by with our rotation as is

we'd probably need beltran to be really good, though

all depends on Mejia

if Dickey keeps this run going, how do you not pencil him in next year?

we're close to figuring this shit out long-term, we really are. STAY THE COURSE

[Ramon Suarez]

I'm game, love that fucker

FUCK!

COME ON JOSE

What about your boy down in the AA DL?

[Dep]

youth movement = long term competitiveness

quick fixes = stupidity

[littlefallsmets]

Tejada's twenty, man.

He's growing. He'll be less overmatched next year.

[DL]

god i hate this bitch

[Kneel Before Zod!]

is jenry shut down for the year? what's his deal?

[Dep]

What about your boy down in the AA DL?

LOL

he's like dead, he wont be ready to start IMO. we'll figure that out later

not beyond moving Reese to the OF either if tejada was that good

[four3two1]

Johan, Pelf, Niese, Mejia, Dickey?

[Dep]

is jenry shut down for the year? what's his deal?

7-day DL that passed and we havent heard shit

its not good IMO

mets completely mishandled this year. total lost year of development. STUPID.

ARGH

[DL]

bah, i don't like any of the FA pitchers

[Dep]

Johan, Pelf, Niese, Mejia, Dickey?

::signs::

[John]

We don't know if Tejada will ever hit MLB pitching

[four3two1]

can somebody tell me what the fans are thinking? i'm watching mlbtv
