Tiffany: They play as a team. They are fundamentally sound, especially defensively. Albert Pujols is one of the best hitters in the league. Plus a career year out of their Ryan Church, Ryan Ludwick hasn’t hurt them. Oh yeah, did I forget to mention..Dave Duncan Dave Duncan Dave Duncan…

Castillo was good last year. Made contact was a good #2 for us and played the field.

this year he is not hitting and his fielding sucks. but then again jose in the field is not jose either.

maybe they need to get a real infield coach who can teach all 4 players how to do the fundamental things and not make stupid plays.

I wonder if we can eat castillo’s contract and trade him to someone for an A ball player.

Ugh, now we have to settle for a split.

Heres one. The Angels DH is Garrett Anderson. He has a 289 obp with 6 Hrs 35 rbis in close to 300 ABs. They may want to upgrade there with an eye to the playoffs.

Ray,

It would be have to be one desperate team to take Delgado, definitely an AL squad, and the Mets would probably have to eat all but the entire contract.

Luis Castillo’s contract: “Astonishingly ill-chosen!”

By: Ray Sadecki

Ray Sadecki — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 01:29:37 +0000

If they dont do anything else, they have to move Delgado. His total lack of range and hustle cannot be made up by his occasional bursts of power. Maybe an AL team would give us a mid range prospect if wilpon pays half his contract.

So much for big changes coming. Same team, same lineup, same results except we now have a manager the media likes.

So, what’s to like in this Cardinal lineup? Outside of Albert, I’d take Yadier F. Molina over Schneider.

tiffany,

Is Irwin Mainway related to the guy in the movie Halloween?.

Ray Sadecki,

well, i don’t know that answer but what I do know is wagner is still in the top 5 in closing games, probably the fifth best and closer’s are hard to find or have so there could be a team that is good but needs a closer to get over the hump. The problem is i don’t see Omar Minaya being a seller. The Mets definitely should be sellers but Omar isn’t smart enough to think that way.

The full name of this product, as it appears in stores all over the county, is Johnny Switchblade: Adventure Punk. I mean, nothing goes wrong.. little girls buy ‘em, you know, they play games, they make up stories, nobody gets hurt. I mean, so Barbie takes a knife once in a while, or Ken gets cut. You know, there’s no harm in that. I mean, as far as I can see, you know?

What team out there would take Wagners contract?

Actually i checked what i said, second post of the night. I said 7 innings, 2 or less and the mets would give up 6 or more. I do know this team well, unfortunately.

tomg — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 01:06:41 +0000

well, I said lohse would pitch 7 innings and give up 2 runs, I guess i was wrong, he will pitch more than 7 innings and give up less. I guess i don’t know this club as well as i thought.

tiffany,

Have to admit that statement went over my head but I looked Irwin Mainway up on the internet and now I got it, impressive.

Tiffany: Nice … watching the Mets can indeed be hazardous to one’s sensibilities.-JD

JD,

I think so but to be honest, I only watched those shows when they were actually on for the first time and never watched any re-runs.
