    livan is the coolest pitcher ever…

      Right now it’s him or Malo. Reyes has played a little SS I think. He is some how hitting better and at least has learned to take walks. I am guessing it’s either he or Malo.

    We winning this one or what?

    The Mets offense is clicking on all cylinders of late.

    1. metsfan4decades

      Cool story. Bobby V. is an icon over there.

      1. metsfan4decades

        Pretty much my same thought.
        If only Cora wasn’t fond of that head first slide. I HATE those.
        And you know I had to look it up on some analytic web site talking about the difference between head first and feet first slide. I would have bet the ranch there is no advantage, time wise. Apparently, there is something to getting there quicker b/c of the momentum.

        1. trs86

          Eh, no big deal. Do it tomorrow sometime.

        ah, truer words never spoken……

    Pinch hit Reed for Murph here I would say is the rite thing to do.

      Thanks for the ‘no pressure’ as I am a bit nervous, and definitely feel free to edit or remove anything I do as you see fit (I was playing around earlier, and thought I’d made a post, but was able to delete it), and of course any ‘notes’ you have in the morning on what I do later will be appreciated.

    C’mon MexMurph!

  6. casestreet

    oh, how a homerun would be great right about now

  7. mattcerrone

    Tattoo it Tatis!

    1. TheDirtySanchez

      lol im sure we will…

      1. trs86

        We are screwed.

        1. metsfan4decades

          O.K. thanks.
          And yes – had that problem on Metsblog but not all the time. Like once every 20 refreshes and/or posts.
          Sometimes, I had to kill the session and sign back in. At least a half dozen times during the game – lol.

    Damn walks, they always bite you in the ass.

    1. TheDirtySanchez

      yea..they love him..ny kicked him out..japan doesnt want him to leave

      1. trs86

        I think it may just be running style too. A guy like Wright for sure should not be sliding head first.

  9. TheDirtySanchez

    grave..you still up buddy

  10. mattcerrone

    I’ll bet you wnership to my website Metsblog.com if the Mets come back to win this game.

  11. mattcerrone

    Will the Mets hit any HR’s at Fenway?

  12. mattcerrone

    Pinch hit Shef for Martinez!!! What is Manuel doing?!!!!

  13. casestreet

    R. Martinez? aw, fudge

  14. casestreet

    I stayed up for a weep?

  15. mattcerrone

    I think that win streak and good stretch by the Mets was very deceptive. Covered up a lot of real problems that exist with this team.

    Go to my Blog (metsblog.com) for a re-cap of tonite’s loss.

  16. trs86

    Thanks man, I hope we have the same fire for this in August but this has been fun today.

  17. TheDirtySanchez

    yea…so far so good

  18. mattcerrone

    Reed would’ve done at least as well.

  19. mattcerrone

    Mets offense has been Citi-field-ized. They play a strictly non-HR offense.

  20. mattcerrone

    It doesn’t feel like a win is in the works.

    i refuse to support your rolled up sleeves
