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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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