Open Thread: Mets vs Dodgers, 5/6/2008

Nelson Figueroa vs Hiroki Kuroda

(Baseball-Reference.com Preview)


Eric Simon has far too much time on his hands. He sleeps upside-down, keeps people as pets, and can be found on the internets at Amazin' Avenue or bothered directly at eric@metsgeek.com.

    Peterson’s not doing interviews. The media even asked Willie if he put a gag on him. To which Willie responded that that was ridiculous and he doesn’t put gags on any of his coaches.

    Hmmmmm….I wonder. I don’t think its Willie, he can’t even gag Wagner’s mouth let alone Peterson’s. Is it the FO?

    Nice touch on rediculous as well. Tris Speaker would be proud.

    LOL! At the Free Willie mental imagine of Willie flying out to freedom over Omar’s overstretched hand like in the movie.

    I heard Peterson is in hot water with the front office, could explain the silence.

    Nite Simons.

    Why is the office blaming Peterson?

    From what I’ve read they feel like the mets staff has stuff, but serious mental issues and peterson isn’t helping them with the mental stuff and is thus ineffective.

  24. Comment posted by Danny on May 7, 2008 at 2:19 am (#684604)

    Maybe they should stop handing Peterson projects and headcases, haha

  25. Comment posted by The Chinatown Chicken on May 7, 2008 at 2:19 am (#684605)

    I think Peterson has done wonder with Perez and Maine. As for Pelfrey, that is more Omar and Bernarzard’s fault than Peterson’s. They are the dumbies who rushed him up sooo fast.

  26. Comment posted by OutofMarketFan on May 7, 2008 at 2:20 am (#684606)

    As I continue this conversation with myself…

    I can’t really argue the first point. Sanchez, Heilmen, Perez, Maine, their struggles do seem to be more mental than physical. As to Peterson’s effectiveness/ineffectiveness on the mental aspects, I can’t say.

  27. Comment posted by OutofMarketFan on May 7, 2008 at 2:21 am (#684607)

    I agree Pelf is more of an seasoning issue. When he was tipping his fastball in spring training they should have sent him down to get things straightened out.

  28. Comment posted by The Chinatown Chicken on May 7, 2008 at 2:24 am (#684608)

    I think Peterson hasn’t always had the best material to work with in the starting rotation. If Tonomar could develop ML pitching prospects for him to work with, that would be another case.

    We did a nice job with Mulvey but then understandably traded him away.

    The regime prior to Omar didn’t leave him much to work with in the upper levels.

    Yeah. But I still haven’t forgiven them for Pelfrey.

    Alright Ramon and OMF and whoever else may be floating around on the blogosphere.

    Night to all.
