Lol.

Now Huff will be a Met next week and completely suck for us. It'll only be right.

 

[youngin33]

The Mets are the definition of choke. This team is no different than the last 2 seasons. Enough said. Goodbye.

 

[justhotkicks]

2008 all over again.

 

[jordanpp30]

O's

 

[addictedtofreshkicks]

this team is pathetic... the whole franchise is pathetic

disgusting.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Meh I'm not upset with this loss. Blown saves happen. I'm a little upset with David not delivering when they walked Beltran to put runners on thecorners 2 outs.

 

[mez 0ne]

I know a loss like this sucks, this is technically K-Rod's first blown save and we're at the end of June. Huff was the man the whole series.

This team is playing hard and executing despite the injuries and lack of power, they just haven't been able to tack on insurance runs as of late (ie Phillyseries, this series). They should have won the past 3 series vs Philly, Yanks, and O's but these kinds of things happen.

It would've been nice to go back home 2 games back with the tough tough schedule ahead, but they are still hanging in there and that's all you can askfor at this point.

Yeah, I agree.

As for Dave, he's now 0-9 in the last 2 games. Him cooling off was bound to happen. But I hope it's not the start of a big slump.

Cuz without him being productive, we are DEAD.

 

[airmaxpenny1]

i have a feeling the wheels are really bout to come off

 

[johnnyredstorm]

See the thing with David Shuges, he goes on stretches of like 3 games were he'll bat 1-12 with like 9 strikeouts and then he'll go on a huge tear forthe next 5 games to keep his average up. He needs to be more consistent. It's a shame he's on pace to strikeout 150 times.

 

[mez 0ne]

Striking out 150 times would be nuts for a guy not hitting for home runs this year, he has not recognized the breaking pitch all season long (he gives up onthem).

David and Beltran CANNOT slump at all this year the way things are right now, pretty nuts how TRON has been a rock for the whole season so far.

Lets win 2 of 3 at home.

 

[d3si]

It seems Fernando Nieve is a godsend for us this year. We needed that. Nieve's got great fastball. His pitching staffs really confuse me. I wonder how manypitches does he have?

Now, c'mon Santana.. Let's get the job done tomorrow. What's going on with David Wright? He isn't a kind of guy who gets a lot of strikeouts ina game.

 

[shuges]

Once again, no run support for Santana.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

That was a hell of an outing for Santana. Shame he got no run support again.

 

[mez 0ne]

Rain should calm down a bit 1.5-2 hours from now.

Hopefully Sheilds will be out.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

I gotta imagine both managers go to the pen if that's the case. Hopefully ours can be strong for 2 outs and we attack that weak Rays pen.

 

[proshares]

The fact that the pen has been weak may make Maddon stick with Shields.

 

[shuges]

At least I get to watch Miguel Cabrera again. Miss this dude in the NL.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Hey Jerry, here's an idea, instead of pitching Bobby everyday for a month how about we give him a couple of days off to clear his head and give his armsome rest. Jesus Christ would it hurt to use Stokes?

 

[shuges]

Abysmal.

If I were Johan, I'd demand a trade.

(kidding of course)
