The Dodgers have been on crack or something this postseason, I'm telling you. One bizarre play and dumb mistake after another. Coaching included. :rolleyes:

Congrats, JL and other Mets fans. I'm being a good sport because I know they deserved this series. This is a rare occasion for me.

Does anyone here really think that the Mets would even be in the Playoffs if they were in the American Leauge?

DS


I woke up this morning with nothing to do and went to bed with only half of it done.

You mean the fake baseball league? The league where pitchers don't hit and where managers don't have to manage because all they have to do is insert 9 HITTERS in the lineup and never have to worry about deciding if they should keep a pitcher in, who is pitching a good game, or pinch hit for him with runners in scoring position? You talking about the league with that kind of baseball?

We'll never know now will we, because the Mets play in the league that requires managerial skills and run production using small ball at times. You know, the kind of small ball that the team in the American league who ( now let me quote someone named DS who said to me in work last week) "Won't lose a game throughout the playoffs and world series." The kind of run producing strategy that the team manager from the American league, the one who manages "Murderer's Row with Cano" didn't use but instead continually relied on the long ball.

Hey Smitty, you want to know another reason why the Yankees could not win? Who batted in every game after Arod was up?

THE DETROIT TIGERS, that's who!
:p

Seriously though Smitty, do you remember my prediction last week when we spoke about the Yankees? About how if they lost the series how Torre would either be fired or forced to resign? And how I said that if that happened he would be replaced with Sweet Lou Pinella because Pinella was the only manager that Arod produced his best years of baseball playing for? Did I call this one or what?


American League Baseball. DH rule where a player who plays in the field does not ahve to come up to bat. Similar to little league rules. :p

Come root for a team in a league, you know the same league that the New York Mets, who are advancing to the next round, play in and see how real baseball is played and managed where all nine players who play the field get up at bat too.


Daaaaa Yankees Looooooose!!!!

Does anyone know or has anyone heard what two players the Mets called up and put on their roster for this round of the playoffs?

I'm figuring that they'll bring up Milledge or Ledee, and Pelfry.

None of those players appear on their 25 man roster. Cliff Floyd was added, and the only name, with which I wasn't familiar, was Anderson Hernandez, who, I guess, is a utility infielder. They're carrying 11 pitchers.

I got my info from mlb.com. I would have provided the entire roster, but my limited computer skills prevent me.

Thank you Klydon.


Anderson Hernandez was up with them in the begining of the season. He played 2nd base. Randolph probably brought him up for late inning defensive purposes as he had a stellar glove in the field when he was up with the Mets early in the season. Here is the Roster :


Active Roster

Pitchers
53 Chad Bradford R/R
25 Pedro Feliciano L/L
47 Tom Glavine L/L
48 Aaron Heilman R/R
39 Roberto Hernandez R/R
33 John Maine R/R
59 Guillermo Mota R/R
27 Darren Oliver R/L
46 Oliver Perez L/L
29 Steve Trachsel R/R
13 Billy Wagner L/L


Catchers
11 Ramon Castro R/R
16 Paul Lo Duca R/R


Infielders
21 Carlos Delgado L/R
23 Julio Franco R/R
1 Anderson Hernandez S/R
7 Jose Reyes S/R
18 Jose Valentin S/R
4 Chris Woodward R/R
5 David Wright R/R

All of a sudden you're congratulating the Mets?

Well I must say, that's pretty decent of you.

And I would like to congratulate The Boss, Arod and Mussina on their playing a fantastic round of golf in Tampa yesterday.

Thanks, DC. But was ARod actually able to HIT the ball with his club??

Hey, the Mets had a great year, and I'm glad for them. I hope they keep it going.

OK, Mets fans, your team is currently playing Game 6 of the NLCS, and none of you have posted in a week!! Are you that used to losing??? :p Seriously, nice to see them on the board, and the first inning isn't even over yet.

Actually, now that the Yankees are out of the way for the season, I've been rooting for the Mets.

It isn't quite the same but we've still got a NY team in the running, and mostly I think Willie Randolph's done a fabulous job taking them this far into 2006.

What was with all the sliders from Billy Wagner? He's either lost his confidence or his fastball.

No, sorry. I had to give up two tickets to another friend of mine. We had a deal that if either of us got tickets, we'd split them.

JUST LOU : (seated in front of the Don Cardi's desk) I believe in Baseball. Baseball has made me happy. And I rooted for the Mets in the New York fashion. I gave them my heart, but -- I hoped that they would never dishonor their fans. They found a manager; not an Italian. They went to the spring training with him; they practiced till late. I
didn't protest. Two months ago, the Mets decided to start a drive, running a lottery for playoff tickets. They made
me enter my name. Two friends entered their names. They offered a deal. At first I resisted. But then I kept my honor and agreed to their deal for game 7. And then those two friends took advantage of me. My friends took all of the tickets. It hurt me. They treated my like an animal. I couldn't even weep because of the pain inside. I stood in the stadium parking lot like a fool. like a fool. And those two bastard, they smiled at me. Then I said to my wife, "The next time we have tickets, we must offer them to Don Cardi."

DON CARDI :Just Lou... Just Lou... What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? Had you come to me in friendship, offered me this kind of a deal, then this scum that ruined game 7 for you would be in their living rooms watching the game this very day. And that by chance if an honest man such as yourself should get 4 tickets, then two of them would become my tickets. And then the Cardinals would fear us. But that aside, let me say, from the bottom of my heart ....


LET'S GO METS!

-----------------------------------------------------------


Enjoy the game Lou!

My apologies to the Mets fans here - you've got a great set of guys, and I was really pulling for them. They had a wonderful season, and they fought to the very end...they've got my respect for that.

I guess this will make the WS easier for me - I'm definitely rooting for Detroit, now.

Gotta give it up for Willie & The Mutts! They lasted longer than the Yanks, they fought hard... they had a chance in the bottom of the 9th in Game 7...! Ya gotta be proud (if you're a Mutts fan)... and this coming from a Yankees fan.

I'd've rooted for them in the WS, but I gotta go AL (Tigers) now... :p



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol
