this team is really unbelievable how do you send up newhan there? does anyone think the mets are going to hold this lead? i also got the great news that beltran fucked up his knee again and it looked really bad this time.
how can willie do this? he's going to bring show in with absolutely no safety net. fucking tubby is on deck!
I was ready to post "Aaron Sele, new NY Mets closer" if he got the third out, but he doesn't get the chance. At this point I've lost the will to criticize Willie for anything bullpen-related other than his refusal to use any of the callups at any time - after all, the ones he uses all suck.
"And the d*mn game is over" - to quote the late, great Bob Murphy after a particularly painful victory over the Phillies (IIRC?) back in the mid-'80s.
i want to be clear, i have no problem with show coming in to pitch to hermida. the problem is that willie had no one else up in case he didn't get him out.
You do know that I wasn't seriously criticizing you (or anyone else) for thinking that ANY move would blow up in their faces, right? The only thing saving Willie's job in my mind is that even if he makes the right move with the bullpen he's got less than a 50/50 chance that it will work out, so what's the big deal with him making wrong moves.
Looking around the NL though, I think the Mets could go far in the playoffs. No team is without weakness, though the Padres really scare me.
Anyone reason why Sele was taken out? I thought they would let him get his first save ever, seeing as he had 2 outs on 3 pitches.
