lol @ Randolph crying about how Kuo flipped his bat

dick move but c'mon
STYLE POINTS

actually, that was awesome. guy's a pitcher, it's his second career hit, and he launched that ball. he should have run the bases with one flap down.

if willie wants to cry, he should cry about carlos d's complete lack of effort on juan pierre's triple.

mercifully, my DirecTV has just been fixed, so I've missed the last 3 games.

Not worried, tho.

Maine buzzed Kuo in his next AB too.

John Maine... what is up dude?

Next up: baseball's hottest team vs. baseball's coldest. 1/3 of a $1billion/yr in salary with a combined 68-59 record (.535).

lol 4k delgado.

small ball & great outfield d-fence for the win in the opener!

"momentum," media, Shasta chumped!

lol what was that again

I'm trying to figure out how to deal w/ reyes...

cankles i know yr a Bravos parasite but try to grow some pubes.

Shawn Green: Not An Outfielder! The throw he just shat out after Damon's RBI single was almost closer to first than home plate and, uh, SHOULD HAVE BEEN TO SECOND.

U GOT WANGED

enough with the asians, Jimmy

THATS WAHT TEH METES SED AFTER TEH CHAN HO FAILURE

a-rod is going to surpass his 2006 hr total (35) by the all-star break.

no, he won't. i'll put $5 on it.

Gammons:

These streaks come and go. When the Mets went 3-11 going into Oliver Perez's brilliant mastery of the Yankees on Friday, their team on base percentage was .290, which obviously will not continue. Minaya has several regular players like Carlos Delgado and Carlos Beltran slumping or, like Moises Alou, injured. Minaya and his entire staff believes that Pedro Martinez is in the best shape of his career and will make it back for the stretch run, but has still looked around at pitching and has thrown Mark Buehrle's name around.

I'm assuming it was Max Kellerman on ESPN Radio this morning who said that the Yankees-Mets series just proved that the Mets are overrated and don't have the pitching. It was neither Mike nor Mike, probably after 10:00 and definitely before noon.

Or it was someone on during Max Kellerman. I really don't know. I think it was the same person who later talked to Jered Weaver about Weaver's new 2100' house, which is located two miles away from his parents in Something Beach, CA.

Minaya has several regular players like Carlos Delgado and Carlos Beltran slumping or, like Moises Alou, injured.

LOL at counting on Alou being healthy. Dude has missed 90 games over the past 2 seasons.

do you think P.G. (or me) were ever counting on it?

Why even mention it then?

Andy: if you're lucky, it could've been Colin Cowherd!

cuz Omar was counting on it? (gambling more likely)

Morbs should i start Maine against the Twinkies tonight!??!?!?!?!

7.1 ip, 4 h, 1 er, 2 bb, 4 k, 1 w, 1.23 era, .214 oba, 0.82 whip...

so in conclusion, yes you should've started him.

lol @ asking morbs fantasy advice!

Ade, did you start the Maine Man? I didn't. ;_;

Alright, this is getting grim.

It's called a slump! It happens!

all month?

2 weeks! and 2 days! Give or take!

well this is nice.

Lo Duca is FEISTY

uh yeah that's why they're sweeping the a's.

pls get that Hothead Paisan w/ no power outta here this winter.

Ha - good luck w/ that, esp. if the Mets go anywhere this offseason. It'll be like the post-WS Varitek deal, but worse. Tho who'd take over for Dookie - Castro? FA signee? Some prospect?

One is real Met - who's the fake?

A wealthy Florida chiropractor thought she was dating Mets ace Pedro Martinez, but the lovelorn back cracker wound up being scammed out of almost $1 million.

Dr. Rhonda Schroeder says she was fleeced by Shirley Gordon, a career con woman who enlisted two male pals to pose as the superstar pitcher.

Schroeder, 34, is suing the imprisoned grifter to get back some of the cash she splurged in an effort to keep her bogus boyfriend happy, the St. Petersburg Times reported yesterday.

The phony romance started in January 2005 when Schroeder went on a date set up by Gordon with a man she believed to be Martinez, prosecutors said.

Much later, Schroeder identified a photo of the man - who turned out to be Kenneth Day, an ex-boyfriend of Gordon's, prosecutors said. Day, who has not been charged in the case, bears a resemblance to the eight-time All Star pitcher, although he has a scar above his left eye, the newspaper said. Martinez has no such mark.

uh yeah

You'd like to see them make the same (correct) call on Lo Duca that Cashen made on Ray Knight after '86 WS MVP, ie bye-bye. If Omar can, I dunno.

intradivision deal? unlikely.

why does Carlos Delgado suck so bad?

Day would make a better Mike Lowell.
