mariners @ mets 6/22 - 6/24

you mean the benching for his costly error the other night?

 

give me a break. are you a member of the media?

 

Andy Phillips will solve all of the Mets problems. I just know it.

 

andy phillips, part of the mets plan to prove that you can indeed do worse then delgado and castillo at 1st/2nd

 

shelley duncan and wilson betemit are also available if you want them.

 

don't be jealous, bro

 

so sitting reyes when he came up limping in manuel's 1st game wasnt a message either?

 

lets face some facts here, manuel has pulled reyes, stood up for beltran, and BENCHED wright, a complete opposite from randolph,

b.t.w, cmon A's tonight, lets get this to 3 games

 

not in the sense that you mean it. does he pull or bench delgado or castillo when they dog it in the field or flail weakly at the plate 4 times a game? why would he "punish" the few good players on the team while letting the dogs slide?

 

there time will come, i think we just signed andy phillips right?

 

Agree on Beltran, but he was protecting Reyes who has a history of tight hamstrings, and Wright was merely given an overdue day off. That's not a pulling or benching. Save those words for describing what Hodges did to Cleon, or Billy Martin/Reggie, as punishment for dogging it.

How are the A's doing?

 

4-0 philli top 7, :sad:

i maybe stretching it a little bit w/wright, but for reyes, when a player says there 'ok' they dont get pulled

 

ah fuck i DO miss andy philips. chief.

 

I understand that he's proven nothing at the ML level, but shouldn't we be giving Val Pascucci from AAA a shot? The guy is burning lefties at the stake down there (something like a 1.330 OPS vs. LHP). It's worth giving him a shot over this Phillips scrub.

 

A day late, but Phils did lose to the A's today, the 9th in their last 11 games. Mets are amazingly only 3 1/2 games out.

 

of course, but cmon do the mets ever do things right
