Well, maybe not - Reyes homers and Gotay walks. Clearly VandenHurk is awful, so the Mets do still have a chance.
Given how often Beltran swings and misses at overhand curveballs, anyone who thinks he should have swung at that pitch from Wainwright in last year's playoffs isn't paying attention.
It sounds like Gary and Ralph have been reading this game thread. Today's topic: just how much do the Mets suck? Inquiring minds want to know!
I must say, Alou does hit more of those line drives that turn out to be home runs than anyone I can remember.
well, when Alou IS on, he is one of the hardest outs in baseball. 9 out, 1 run lead? yeah.. not happening
Oh it's happening alright. It's nice to see such offense from these guys. This feels like a 2006 style game.
we're friggin' out of catchers. as I'm sure you know, castro was removed with mild back arthritis. I hope he can play soon. willie isn't bringing up another catcher. looks like DeFelice on Tuesday. If something had happened to him too, we had nothing left. emergency catchers had been used.
