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.
PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE, Manitoba - A man accused of beheading and cannibalizing another passenger on a Greyhound bus in Canada pleaded Tuesday in court for someone to “please kill me,” and was ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
Prosecutor Joyce Dalmyn, who argued for the evaluation, revealed new details about the attack Wednesday night. She said Vince Weiguang Li had a plastic bag containing his victim’s ear, nose and part of a mouth in his pocket when officers arrested him. The only response officers received from him was: “’I have to stay on the bus forever,”’ Dalmyn said.
Li, who immigrated to Canada from China in 2004, is charged with second-degree murder in the slaying of 22-year-old carnival worker Tim McLean — an attack which witnesses aboard the bus said appeared to be unprovoked. He has yet to enter a plea.
i always have felt this is reckless behavior. openly rooting for the visiting team? did he have a death-wish?
see custer, here’s the thing. I’m all in favor of heckling the ass-hat that does that. But physical attacks? That’s a bit too much.

Eric Beaulac - the Mets 6th round draft choice started his first game
for the Kingsport Mets and hit 98mph. He pitched 4 innings giving up
only 1 run. The next franchise?
I’d like us to just once catch lightning in a bottle with a young pitching prospect and have him come up and dominate right away.
Been a long time since that has happened.
WHY HAVE THE BASEBALL GODS FORSAKEN US????????????????????

I like Bealac a lot. certainly someone to watch. i think he projects better as a reliever, but i like him.

what about parnell …..he went last friday so thats a no go….other option i guess would be vargas
Well, the thing with Vargas and Figgy is this. The dudes have only been doing well against retreads in AAA. Guys that are hanging on hoping some GM will be desperate enough to give them a shot over some more deserving player who is doing well at AA.

lol…..
Lugo throws 98 mph with a wicked slider and a drop off the table 81 mph circle change.
wagner DL’d cuz that was the only excuse he could think of
and shoots firebolts from his arse!
wagner just being manny?
i know that is bs
lugo is 7 feet tall!
dep your usually good for this kinda stuff
wallace wallace wallace
In reality, he’s Francisco Liriano, moonlighting for the Mets because the Twins weren’t working hard enough to keep him busy down.
I have no idea how it will work, now that both teams have promoted him to the majors.
I’ll take a peek and see what i can find for ya.
for now lets just say:
crappy fastbal
average slider
below average curve
average change
that’s my guess
If Kunz blows a game, we are going to see a Wally Matthews story about how the Mets see him as their Joba, but he is no Joba.
We know this will happen.
well, he IS our phenom…
Or go 7 with a big lead, and pray for rainouts.
Make it happen baby jesus!
I cant find s**t on lugo.
sorry~!
really? Per whom?
Have there been stories for weeks about how he is going to come and rescue the Mets, like there were last year for Joba?
All I’ve read is that he has had a good year, but there are still concerns about his ability to close in the ML at this point.
lol
i read “phenom” in a blurb earlier. i forget who the author was.
i know he’s no joba.
pelfrey is our comp for joba
not kunz
dude is nothing more than a roogy right now
i always have felt this is reckless behavior. openly rooting for the visiting team? did he have a death-wish?
i’ll go with your orignal thread
Eddie C just said Perez is pitching friday and Niese could get the call on saturday
i’ll go with your orignal post then
hahaha, he could be better than that.
who knows. his numbers are ugly.
massive conrol problems. he doesnt walk people, he can do ok.
bad move i don’t want neise saturday
i dont like the marlins for his first taste neither.
i’d rather go retread type guy there.
we’ll see. he didnt say anything on niese, that was added by me. but perez starting on friday means niese is back in play.
see custer, here’s the thing. I’m all in favor of heckling the ass-hat that does that. But physical attacks? That’s a bit too much.

I don’t want a Joba watch
Or the next Jeter
Or the next Mo
I don’t want my guys compared to any skanks.
The media likes to float that shit so they have an angle.
Let our guys be our guys. Don’t compare them to skanks.
parnell was in the mix. omar went to that start to check him out. he pitched ok, not horrible, not great.
Vargas is the most likely option IMO.
I think Niese will get a start soon, but not that one.
but ya NEVER KNOW. we are pushing the kids like crazy now. i dig it
