Other Games 8/5

[MWV]

Your opinions: Do the Mets presently have a worse team than the Reds? Both have lots of injuries (although the Mets have more). Personally, I'd prefer to see the Cubs play the Mets.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Is Angel Berroa the worst ROY winner of all-time?

 

Jerome Walton, Pat Listach, and Bobby Crosby all give hima serious run for his money.

[Roast]

Pujols is good at baseball.

[MWV]

Lohse walks Berroa and Figuerroa on 9 pitches. Bases loaded for Pagan, 2 down. Edited August 5, 2009 by MWV

[laurens]

Nelson Figuerroa has now been more productive in one game than Aaron Miles has been for half a season.

[Roast]

Lohse lasts 2 2/3 innings, leaves with the bases juiced.

 

Fatty Reyes coming in.

Low bar for Figuerroa.

The Mets are a clusterpuck. They both started well and have plummeted. The Mets fell from a higher high, but Cincy is at a lower low. I'd say the Mets are technically a little better, but they are such a mess it's hard to be definitive.

i guess i need to keep starting lohse so he keeps sucking.

Nice choice.

 

Crosby had injury problems he never fully recovered from, so I'm willing to give him a pass.

 

Huh, apparently Lou Piniella won the award back in 1969. Go figure.

[Little Slide Rooter]

runners on 2nd and 3rd, 1 out with the heart of the lineuop due. I get the feeling that the Mets pitching comes undone right about...now

[jersey cubs fan]

Mark DeRosa with a DeRosa special, pop up to the right side.

 

Men on 2nd/3rd, 2 outs for Pujols.

[jersey cubs fan]

Pujols hit on arm, bases loaded for Holliday.

[C.C.]

Holliday K's! Mets get out of it.

[Little Slide Rooter]

got him.

[NeifiIsMyHomeBoy]

I guess he forgot to sprinkle the pixie dust on his bat before digging in.

It's gotta be Bob Hamelin.

Here's a fun Mets stat I just realized

 

Mark Reynolds hit 4 HRs in 3 games there last week; or, as many as David Wright has hit there all season.

Yeah, aside from all the injuries, Citi Field's effect on Wright's power is probably the biggest story involving this team.

 

I have to think that after two straight collapses and what is turning out to be a disastrous season, the Mets will strongly consider blowing up the roster. One of their better players might become available.

 

If the Cubs could somehow get Jose Reyes, that would be sweet. I know some Mets fans want to get rid of him ASAP. But he's typically a 155 game SS who is a significant upgrade to Theriot. Then the midget brigade can platoon at 2B.

[jersey cubs fan]

7-0

 

STL goes head hunting on Wright, but misses. Warnings to everybody by Tony doesn't get why.
