Maybe he can stay and take Wally the Green Monster's job? . . . Nah, he doesn't have the wheels to take Wally's job. Enjoy retirement, Mike. Leaving the major league life behind is going to suck.
It would have been nice if he had found his swing before this road trip. When interleague stops and Ortiz and Crawford are back we will not need his bat that much.
I have always liked that Theo holds himself accountable for his bad moves. Too many people make too many excuses today and too many people are willing to accept lame ass excuses. Not enough people take responsibility. Kudos to Theo.
Pitcher at bat. Here's where I obsess about injury, not about a position player plying the OF. 1st and 3rd none out. Lester should bunt or just stand there. I'd prefer he just stand there so he doesn't have to run.
Drew's numbers declined last season, and he was complaining about injury before the start of the season. It would not have been unforeseeable for him to have a down season or miss substantial time. As for Cameron, he's 38 and post-op. Nuff ced.
What just happened? GameCast says we scored a run. What is that? Does that mean one of our players advanced around the bases and touched home plate before there were three outs? My memory is fuzzy on that.
I know people who are in and close to the Mets organization. They had trouble meeting payroll last year. They spent no money this past off season and they made a wacky deal with a new minority owner that could cost them control of the team, because they desperately need money. It's fairly well-known.
