  1. Screw that, the Mets are lacking balls right now, Gary Carter would have done it! These Mets are soft!
  2. Screw all you Jank these fans cause you know if David Wright was in pinstripes, you guys would be ready to retire his number already!
  3. Pretty bitch A-Rod was there so was steriodless Giambi, what other two punk ass Yankees or as they say in the Bronx, Jankees were there man! My money would have been on Brooklyn born LoDuca!
  4. I was praying that LoDuca would swing on his ass! The Mets need some balls and that could have given the Mets a boost!
  5. Soler and Bell should be sent down to AAA
  6. Willie Randolph admitted he held his breath for a second. But when Billy Wagner walked down the steps into the dugout on Saturday after recording the last out of the Mets' 8-3 win over the Yankees and said he was all right, Randolph could breathe easy. What got the Mets skipper concerned was the fact his closer slammed hard into first base with his right foot when he took the toss from first baseman Julio Franco to record the final out. To make matters look and appear even worse was when Wagner hopped, skipped and gingerly trotted away around the infield. Fortunately, though, both manager and player confirmed the 34-year-old pitcher is just fine. "I stepped on the base, turned my ankle a bit, but I'm fine," said Wagner, who pitched the final inning and struck out two batters. "I've turned my ankle plenty of times in my career and I know when it's bad and when it's one you can just walk off. But I'm fine." Wagner's play followed Steve Trachsel's departure in the seventh inning after a play that also looked far worse than what it turned out to be. The 6-foot-4 right-hander lunged for a high-bouncing grounder off the bat of Miguel Cairo, only to have it skip off his glove and land on the grass behind the mound. As Trachsel scrambled after it, he twisted his body and appeared to have injured himself, either with a flare-up of a herniated disk he suffered earlier this season, or a tight right groin, from which he has been suffering the past two weeks. A trainer rushed to the mound, followed by Randolph, and Trachsel was relieved by Aaron Heilman. But, like Wagner, Trachsel (7-4) said after the game that he felt fine and nothing was serious. "[The groin has been] tight for the past couple of weeks, but it hasn't bothered me to the point where I can't pitch," said Trachsel, who picked up his fifth win in a row. "I've been pitching well, so I guess it isn't that bad." The tall righty said he felt it a bit when he jumped for the ball and jokingly said maybe it would be better to not do such a thing anymore. In his six-plus innings of work, Trachsel allowed seven hits and two runs, with four walks and three strikeouts. He threw 104 pitches, 59 for strikes, in helping the Mets break their four-game losing streak. The Mets have now won seven of the last eight times that Trachsel has started. Whether it's coincidental or not, he said the run support has given him the leeway to pitch more aggressively. "We've been hitting very well and, in this game, it gave me a cushion to attack the zone and pitch across the plate more, instead of just on the corners," said Trachsel, who has received 7.7 runs per game from the Mets' offense in his last eight starts. "It's definitely important to being able to go after hitters early and often throughout the count."
  7. I love the Mets and Giants so something with David Wright, Jose Reyes, Jeremy Shockey and Eli Manning!
  8. I agree with him 100%, we were handed our asses by the Redsox and that did raise some concerns, especially seeing that we had Pedro and Tommy pitch and lose!
  9. Sorry just hyped that the losing streak is over and we whipped the Yanks!
  10. Team W L PCT GB NY Mets 48 32 .600 - Florida 35 41 .461 11.0 Philadelphia 36 43 .456 11.5 Atlanta 34 46 .425 14.0 Washington 33 48 .407 15.5
  11. The hell with the Redsox series, I want that 4-0 lead back in the ninth @ Shea!
  12. Won 2 out of 3 from the Yanks Won 2 out of 3 from the Jays Lost 2 out of 3 to the O's Lost all 3 to the Redsox and so far are 1-1 vs Yanks in the Bronx Record vs A.L. East so far: 6-7
  13. Great follow up game Yankees fans losing 8-3. Nice game by the Big Unit!
  14. This was a tough stretch cause me being a Yankee Hater, I root for the Redsox on a normal basis but not when they play the Mets. I wore both my Mets and Redsox jerseys these last few days and confused the hell out of some people!
  15. The Boston Redsox showed the Mets just how much harder they must play to defeat the good A.L. teams. The Mets looked horrible in Boston, we lost two of three against Baltimore, won two of three from Toronto and hopefully win at least two from the Yankees this weekend! Redsox--9 vs Mets--4 Redsox--10 vs Mets--2 Redsox--4 vs Mets--2
  16. Well this was a rough three game stretch, I don't know how many times I cursed out the T.V. or threw the cable remote! Hope we kick the YANKEES ASS!
  17. Congrats to all the Redsox fans here on this board, your team whip the Mets behinds!
  18. Let me just say Congrats to the Boston Redsox once again for beating the crap out of my favorite, Mets! Oh by the way CROW doesn't taste to well!
  19. We sort of need this win tonight, getting swept by an A.L. Division Leader will look bad for us National League Fans!
  20. Hopefully Glavine can pull out a win tomorrow against the Redsox, then we need for Traschel to win on Friday cause Hernandez and Soler will be toss up games!
  21. The way the Mets are playing right now, the worse thing for us are the Yankees! Before this 9 game road trip started, me and my fellow Mets fans at work said that we would be happy with a 5-4 or 4-5 record and with two wins against the BlueJays, we need at least two more. Thank GOD that everyone else in the NL East has lost as well so we still have a 12 game lead!
