Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

I can't wait to see all the starters hit the field at the same time. Especially the in-field. I'm curious to see how they are going to play together. I still have faith that this season isn't going to be a total loss.

Wright hasn't played an inning of spring training. Tejada keeps getting a few innings...Murphy at second is gonna be UGLY, and is Ike over his "desert fever"? :D

Mets lose to the Nats SS today 8-2...Dickey gives up 5 earned runs in 3 innings. Hard to believe the pitching staff is already in mid-season form. :bh :bh :bh

Kind of spooky.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Mets drop a rain shortened game to the Marlins today 4-2. Santana pitched 2.2 strong innings today. The Marlins didn't have Reyes makes the trip so that he wouldn't have to deal with the media. :td :td

Pansy. He's still got his head in the sand after that crap performance to win the batting title.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

More good news:

David Wright joined a cast of the walking wounded in Mets camp. The Mets sent [Wright] to New York to have his left rib cage examined, and likely have an an "ultrasound-guided cortisone shot," GM Sandy Alderson said. Wright is one of several Mets, including outfielders Scott Hairston and Kirk Nieuwenhuis, who have suffered from rib cage/oblique issues this spring, leading the Mets to adjust some of their training routines. "You better believe it's troubling," Collins said. ... "This didn't happen twenty years ago." In response, Collins has ordered his players to put more effort into stretching exercises, make sure to stay hydrated, and reduce the amount of swings taken during batting practice.

It's not a loss.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

In a 7-1 loss to the Cardinals, Pelfrey strikes again.......


Mets starter Mike Pelfrey left some pitches up early on, and the Cardinals took advantage. Freese, the World Series MVP who also had a three-run homer Monday, hit a two-run shot over the right field wall with one out in the first inning, and Molina led off the second with a homer to left.

Pelfrey gave up four runs on six hits in 4 1-3 innings.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter

Mac, you secretly love Pelf...

He is what a true met should be. Tons of talent, can't get his head straight.

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Mets drop another one to the Astros...9-5. Pelfrey gives up 8 earned runs in 2.2 innings to raise the ERA to 14.90. Will someone PLEASE send him to Double A to find his pitches again....PLEASE!!! :bh :bh

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter
 

Perhaps he can be released to coach high school ball?

Re: New York Mets 2012 Banter

I saw this thread pop up right above one for "Walking Dead Season Two", and wonder if the ToE can change the title of this one to "Walking Dead Season Fifty". ;)
