I participated in a series preview webcast with the guys from MetsBlog and SNY.tv. They edited me a bit at the end, there was one more question about the bullpen, but I guess they were running long. Either that or I was getting really verbose, which I have the tendency to do. Check out the show below:

That host just makes me laugh, and i have no idea why.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
He seems pretty corny.
timmy3 - May 11, 2009
The whole “I’ll turn 90 degrees as the camera changes” is just soo incredibly corny and overplayed…you could tell he was trying not to laug
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
i dont think that interview was supposed to make me laugh
but that host cracks me up. you can see his eyes rolling across the cue cards. what a douche haha
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
lmao. Always wear a tie, chief. Otherwise, they're all gonna laugh at you.
Chief Noc-A-Homa - May 11, 2009
I took a media production class my sophomore year
And had to do an interview on campus TV while reading off of cue cards and note cards and I didn’t even look that newby.
ATLandUNC - May 11, 2009
Man...
Something about that guy just makes me want to smack him in the face!
Little Lady - May 11, 2009
I know what it is....
…he’s from New York!
sddbaker - May 11, 2009
You have to speak in small words for New York fans. Most of them don’t have a 4th grade education, otherwise they wouldn’t be New York fans.

The fountain of awesome????

ATLandUNC - May 11, 2009
So is this the Open Thread for the game? Gondee must have gone to the Rite-Aid closing in Athens and got Listerine for 75% off.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Fuck Rite Aid.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
i gotta hear this story.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
2 years ago, I got fired for writing a blog that said I wanted to physically assault shoplifters.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
hippies.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
And this month, I will be quitting my current job…to work for my former boss for less money than I’ve made at both places! Awesome
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Mine runs out at the end of July. I have nothing lined up, except going back to farm work.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
I got ridiculously stressed today and nearly quit on the spot…yeah
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Somewhat surprising lineup (not Chipper being out)
1. KJ, 2B
2. Escobar, SS
3. Prado, 3B
4. McCann, C
5. Diaz, LF
6. Kotchman, 1B
7. Francoeur, RF
8. Schafer, CF
9. Lowe, RHP
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Delgado isn’t playing
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Do my eyes deceive me or is FUGA out of the lineup as well.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
i’m just in shock that Infante isn’ t in there somewhere. He must have lost The Tape.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
one pitch, one out
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Sweet, game on ESPN. What team is Santana pitching against I wonder?
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
ESPN will be using a new piece of technology they developed,where they computer-impose a Red Sox jersey on the Braves.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Yunel working the count…
Steve Phillips… ugh. tWWL is just blowing Santana hard right now.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
ESPN is blacked out in my hood. I get the lovely SNY announcers
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Probably just as bad.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Might be worse. I’ve already muted it and am listening to gameday audio
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Good man.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Infield hit! Woo!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
I can’t believe Escobar is being more patient at bat than Kelly.
And a base hit to show for it!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Thank God for peachtree. I hate thse espn schmucks.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Yeah, I’m very thankful for PTV here.
Chip and Joe have already had a “didn’t realize the mic was on” conversation LOL.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Gotta love em
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Prado!
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Make that 2 hits… ESPN was going on and on about Johan with a no-no….
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009

Damn that change-up.
TennKen - May 11, 2009

On a side note, I’ll take a 20+ pitch inning.

Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
Delgado would have had that. Great day for him to sit.
Mark Lempke - May 11, 2009
Love it!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
You know, Santana still has a shot at a 3 hitter. Lots of pitchers have done this in their career, but this would probably be the best if he maintains it.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
This
umpire has a really small strike zone…
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
Surprise
They call that an unearned run
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
they gave Diaz a hit.
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Error on Wright allowing Escobar to score
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
oh, gotya on the throw
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
or was it on Tatis?
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
The announcers said Wright
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
ESPN bitching about the fact it was a hit…
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
We needed that early run.
Mentally more than anything with Chip out.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
good inning so far
run that pitch count up
TennKen - May 11, 2009
It was NOT an error on Wright
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Do espn announcers get a bonus or raise
every time they say something good about the mets or santana? i mean seriously, you can just take Johan’s pants off if you like him so much.
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
they have to
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
obvisously. phillips and hershiser were pretty much in tears after esco scored
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
BULLSHIT
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
And Kotch called that too. See the ump get in Kotch’s mug after…
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
this ump needs to be consistent. that was a ball to BMAC
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
Koch won’t get a ball called again tonight after that.
Gotta love the fire though.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
i love that…he’s quickly becoming one of my favorite braves
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Damn, that was a good pitch. Gotta give credit.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
TERRIBLE CALL
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Agree
drumzalicious - May 11, 2009
Still, it was too close to take and there was no way for Kotch to do anything with it.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
Anyone else think that FYF and Prado should be Switched in that lineup?
drumzalicious - May 11, 2009
I think Kotch & Diaz should be switched
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
no...
much much much better depth with Frenchy htting 6th. plus, he’s hit like .125 in his career in the 3 hole
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
One way or another, this reminds me of the bad times of last year with Nitram batting 3rd.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
You all see this?
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
I agree with the assesment at the end of the article…although it is kinda funny
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Yeah, me too.
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Wow that REALLY carried
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
i like the 28 pitches seen in the first inning
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Yup

yeah especially after dumbass KJ was out after one pitch.
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009

Wow, Lowe gettin squeezed.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009

Nah, I was legitimately thanking him
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
But, I’ll take a one pitch Vidro

Nice DP!
And only 9 pitches!!!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Let’s follow that last effort up
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Yeah! 8 more times!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
o man my extra innings peachtree feed isnt in HD
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
On PTV, I’d give anything just to be able to see the actual play when it happens.
Whenever the ball is put in play, the feed freezes. I always have to see it in the replay.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
yeah, I just switched over to my non HD PTV channel!!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
Oh, Frenchy…
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
fyf...he's gonna have a rough day
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Logan too…
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Good working the count this first at bat.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Oh HELL yes…they reduced mlb.tv down to under $100 for premium for the rest of the year. That might just make it worth it to me to get.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
Did they lower it because it doesn’t work very well?
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Haha, a good question. I might just find out.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
I guarantee you that at the beginning of June, its down to $80…you’re not saving anything, you’re just paying one month less because that month is gone already
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Hmmm…how much was it to begin with?
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
I think it was 120 bulk…I’m doing just 20 bucks a month

Anybody live in NY and forced to listen to Hernandez??
hoboken_wood - May 11, 2009

Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
i usually do
i live in Arizona and almost always get the Muts feed on MLB extra innings when they play the braves. kinda like listening to Steve Phillips and Harold Reynolds argue. its always bad and neither know what theyre talking about
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
This just in...Johan is GOOD
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
At least it took him 8 pitches to K
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Twice as many as frenchy…
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
+1
He saw 7 more pitches than Kelly and at least 5 more than Frenchy.
Easier to accept a K if they take 8 pitches.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
DLOWE!!!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
HAHAHAHAHA DEREK LOOOOOOOOOOOOOWE SON
bigjoe - May 11, 2009

How dare a free agent not sign with a New York team?!?!?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
It’s their fault. To Minaya, Oliver Perez > Lowe
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
They werent angry until they realized they resigned a 40 million dollar
starterreliever insteadZeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I wish baseball had a salary cap of some sort.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
They need a salary floor also
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
yep
If you can’t reach it, you’re AAA.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Spending $$$$ doesn’t always = championships.
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
“YEah chipper’s happy he doesnt have to face Santana tonight” – Steve Phillips
STFU steve. Chip is one of the greatest switch hitters of all time and one of the best pure hitters as well. He isnt scared of Santana. Just because he beat your teams ass throughout the 1990s doesnt mean you should degrade him.
Scott Coleman - May 11, 2009
Francoeur and Schafoeur back to back, pitchers are going to be salivating over the chance to boost their strikeout totals.
Lennox - May 11, 2009
Frenchy has only K’d 14 times this season
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Yes, but he’s reverted his hitting style over the last few games.
Lennox - May 11, 2009
Yep, swinging at that high pitch again.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
That K by Wright is more pathetic than Schafer’s.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Yup. He looked silly
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Wright looked foolish.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Logan 43 K’s, next closest Brave Ross with 18.
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
insert comma between Brave and Ross
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
That’s a crazy disparity. Good thing Logan walks as well.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
Doesn’t he lead the team?
I still wish he was leading off.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Yes, he leads the team with 22 BB. Next closest Brave is Chipper with 19
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
yeah lowe!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
I’m liking this start so far!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Lowe is looking frisky
I am feeling pretty good. Maybe Lowe will develop into a perennial Met-Killer like Chipper.
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
I’m sure there is some extra motivation for him facing a team that didn’t think he was worth what the Braves gave him.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Good point. It would be saweet for him to come away with a win here tonight.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009

bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Cool stat on PTV,
Lowe & Santana tied for most wins since 2002 at 110 each.
Tonight’s winner will end up as #3 on that list.

Did they say who was #1? Oswalt?
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
Halladay

if one of them is credited with the win at all.

Oh hell no...
Kris Medlen tonight: 6.2 innings, 0 ER, 2 hits, 6 K’s.

I wish our farm wasn’t so weak. It sucks we depleted it in the Tex trade.
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Hope that’s sarcasm…cause we still have a consensus top 5 farm system even after that trade

The same. He wrote an article stating something to the effect that mvandonsel was mocking.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
it was a joke; however, lots of people wrote this exact same thing during the off-season
mvandonsel - May 11, 2009
Gotcha! I didn’t think you were that silly :-)

The knob shlobbing from this crew would be unbearable.
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
They’re already practically giving him head in the booth

The creepy goatee does Beltran no favors

bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
I guess the speed of the hit fooled me, but i was thinking David Wright was reeeeally slow for a minute there.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Man, Lowe is just cruising tonight.

We’re making do with this one. :-)
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Only an hour late.
This wouldn’t have happened if someone acted on an e-mail sent out last week.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
yep, this works out just fine
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
There’s one below the score box on the main page that some folks are knocking around in. I’ve had some family issues via phone so I’m bouncing in and out of the threads/posts…

Another thought on Steve Phillips...
Almost no one in america was as bad at their job as Steve Phillips was, and he is rewarded with a high paying broadcasting gig from ESPN.
If I was as consistently terrible at my profession as him, I am pretty sure I would never be allowed to do it anywhere else. God bless america.
That being said, I do like seeing him now and then because it makes me smile in the same way as Chipper’s kid “Shea” does.
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
“Is 15 mil for Lowe better than 12 mil for Oliver Perez?”
Does the pope wear a funny hat?
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Are they seriously debating if Lowe was a better signing than Oliver Perez?
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
How else can they suck some Met cock tonight?
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Talk about how beautiful Citi Field is?

oh wait.

i used to be a sucker for the high fastball too
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
but then again i also split time for my high school team

KElly strinking out is just “bad hitting”?
Why havent we heard that about the Muts at all?
5 hits > 1 hit
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Escobar…I like
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Nice Yunel….steal please?
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I like how Phillips isn’t busting out the Mexican pronunciation of Martin
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
For all the things Santana does well…he has no pick off move whatsoever.
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
I really wish Esco would steal here
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Well, he’ll be running now….
soup du jour - May 11, 2009
to be fair there usually aren’t many people on base
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
haha, so true
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Is anyone else done with interleague? I’m over it.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I think its something that shouldn’t have all this “WOW INTERLEAGUE PLAY” hype nonsense behind it
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
its ok.
i’m going to the game when to Yankees come to Turner, i’m pretty excited about it. I do think this “rivalry” with the Red Sox is retarded.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
We always seem to play the Yankees and Sox. Everybody else seems to play the suck teams of the year.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
that’s re-tah-ded
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Swung at ball 4
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Chicka chicka....
A couple more decent AB’s and we shouldn’t have to see Johan in the 7th.

Gotcha. thanks for the answer
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I’m really pleased to see (for the most part) a lot more patience by our guys at bat tonight.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
ME TOO
Especially against such a great pitcher. He only has 1-2 more innings in him. 82 already through 5
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
*83
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Why aren’t you guys in the game thread?
MatM - May 11, 2009
there wasnt one when the game started and we all sort of just stayed
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Probably because the game thread is somewhat hidden
MatM - May 11, 2009
Where is it?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Lowe is spinning a gem (knock on wood)
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Knock something please.
We only have 1 run.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
nice job back to back hits now
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
I don’t think this ump understands that where the ball crosses the plate determines whether it is a strike or not
MatM - May 11, 2009
i dont think any umpire does…nor is any ball over the belt a strike
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
HELL
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Agh, just missed it there…lets get 2 heer
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Interesting factoid: Tonight when Randy Johnson (6’10") faces Daniel Cabrera (6’9") is the tallest combined Starting Pitcher height ever
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Wow. That is pretty cool
nick9314 - May 11, 2009
What a fucking fluke that was.
MatM - May 11, 2009
to be fair, our run wasn’t exactly fluke-free
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
dp time
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Knuckle down D Lowe
Lets get out of this one
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
Play normal depth guys, this is a catcher
MatM - May 11, 2009
FUCK
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Shit
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
They really don’t deserve that run
MatM - May 11, 2009
Agreed
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Santana has some kind of bat speed there
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Logan should take notes
MatM - May 11, 2009
We never should have left that guy on 3rd before.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
we need to make him work this inning
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
lol and then he calls that
MatM - May 11, 2009
That is NOT a strike dammit.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
But he (Heap) has to swing if it’s gonna be called one every time.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Does this guy even have a strike zone?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
In short, no.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
He is terrible
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
I don’t think Mac is comfortable with the glasses, at least not yet
MatM - May 11, 2009
Now they’re talking about ping pong and beachballs.

Matty Diaz strikes!

Lets get one of those Kothman dobles
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
wow 3-1 strike to ball ratio
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
I have no idea when this ump is gonna bull the trigger on strikes
MatM - May 11, 2009
pull*
MatM - May 11, 2009
Speaking of, a bull might actually be more consistant calling strikes
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
lol
MatM - May 11, 2009
There’s been no consistency whatsoever.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
They're doing the wave
Skip would not be pleased

Power fiiiinggerrsss.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
He hit him!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
TOSS SANTANA!!!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
bat or hand?
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Damn, I would have a hard time making a call on that one.
MatM - May 11, 2009
Das ist nicht so gut
We definately dont need Kotchman hand problems right now
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
Damn, our players are getting hit a lot.
What was it, 2 or 3x yesterday?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
That was the right call there
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
96 pitches...
Lets get a run here, grind out another 10 pitches and get into their bullpen
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
Jeff Francoeur promptly throws that idea out the window
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Oh no, Frenchy and Schafer up
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Goddamnit Frenchy
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Good job, French.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
way to make him work frenchy
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Francouer sucks again, it’s official.
MatM - May 11, 2009
ops starting to dip below .700
MatM - May 11, 2009
Come on Frenchy – PATIENCE PLEASE.
Damn, I couldn’t even type that (above) before he’s out.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
No uppercut… that should have been a rope.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
This is an example of why Jordan Schafer leads the team in walks
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
2-0
come on kid
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Watch, he’s gonna spit the hook here and we’ll fail again.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Fucking christ.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
he has terrible swings ahead in the count
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
FUCK ME
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
We have an anemic offense
MatM - May 11, 2009
yuck
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Well shit.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
WTF… patience.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
whats that?
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
“Patience doesn’t matter” – Jeff Francoeur
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
they don’t put it on the scoreboard
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I sense MOMENTUM SHIFT....
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Gooood catch
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Those line drives right at you are tricky, and he’s played them great.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Logan
like the kid. But is he saving us more runs on defense than he is costing us on offense?
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
probably not
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
no way….he’s left 40 guys in scoring position
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
His failures are magnified because so many others are not coming through consistently with RISP as well.
We could absorb his rookie growing pains more if he were the only one struggling.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
According to Fangraphs, we have a 48% chance of winning
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
tie game always 52-48 to home team
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
it will go back to 50-50 if we get this out, i just think it’s fun to watch throughout the game
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
that’s better than zero, I guess
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Do we bat Lowe here?
I think we have to.
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
No question, yes we do
MatM - May 11, 2009
definitely
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Yes.
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
GOT TO
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
especially if santanas still out there…odds are the pinch hitter wont get on anyway
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Bennett needs work.

lol
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Whew, good inning
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Good job Lowe. Yes, I’d let him bat this inning.
But he would have a short leash next time up.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Slowed down that momentum shift
TennKen - May 11, 2009
+1
I was concerned.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
This has to be it for Johan. Lets send him out with a loss
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
here here!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Lowe has more patience than Frenchy.
Damn.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
made him throw six
TennKen - May 11, 2009
He saw 6 pitches. Plus his other at bats were good too.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Oh well, got him to throw lots of pitches
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Lowe did his part to make him work.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
He has a hit and has made him throw 11 pitches in the other 2 at bats
MatM - May 11, 2009
Is that because TP isn’t coaching his at bats?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
JESUS CHRIST
Shut the hell up. we get it. Johan is good.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
107 pitches
Longview, I am happy we are at least putting some mileage on him tonight. Its a long season.
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
Good job Kelly
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Nice Kelly. STEAL PLEASE

Yeah Kelly! Can Yunel reach for the fourth time tonight…
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Johan’s done
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
johan gets the hook!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Woo Woo!
10-4 - May 11, 2009
These announcers have no desire to give Lowe credit for keeping the Mets off the board while they’re praising Johan
MatM - May 11, 2009
Oh shit, Kim is on 24 tonight! Time to open Gamecast…
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
HAHA
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Love it! Now we MUST score here.
Lowe deserves more support dammit!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Lets hit them here and give Santana the loss!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
lowe has gotten almost 6 runs a game….just saying
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
I was speaking about tonight’s 1… he deserves more for holding down the Mutts so far.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
You figure Phillips would hate the Mets, but no.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Who the hell is Bobby Parnell?
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Hit and run here
TennKen - May 11, 2009

bpk228480 - May 11, 2009

HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
+1, then a long fly ball scores a run.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
I’m sorry, 7 Hits in 6.1 with 107 pitches is not a “GREAT” outing.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Real strong outing. But not phenominal
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
3 of them were infield hits…and none hit too hard
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Exactly. They are making out like a world beater outing. He got lucky to get out of a few jams.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Come on Odarp

“are you saying santana has a bad rhythm for offense?”
He sounded like someone questioned his manhood
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
YUCK
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
That ball was in his eyeballs
TennKen - May 11, 2009
If we can win this game – it will be great to set the tone for the series.
Win against them with 7 in a row, and in their place and against their ace.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
+100
Not as “wishful thinking” as it sounded when I typed it earlier. :-)
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Did you just give yourself 100 points?

Bump. The. Mets. Bump the Mets. Come on out and BUMP the Mutts.
Chief Noc-A-Homa - May 11, 2009
I can't believe Wright made an error
i mean, he’s like, the best defensive third baseman in the majors
Doghnut - May 11, 2009
I know, the media is going to crush him!
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
the best at sucking his own dick
Chief Noc-A-Homa - May 11, 2009
Just got home in time for the 7th, great inning!
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
me too
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009

Doghnut - May 11, 2009
i have 0 confidence in the these two hitters
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Who are the muts pitching tues and wed
That a boy - May 11, 2009
Jurrjens, then JoJo
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
Oh, my bad. Mutts.
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
Thats the braves
That a boy - May 11, 2009
i’ll take 2 of 3
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Pelfrey and Niese. I’m salivating
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
This could turn out to be a hell of a road trip guys
That a boy - May 11, 2009
A sweep here should put us in first.
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
Pelfrey is 4-0 with an ERA of 5.46. LOL
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
HAHAHAHA
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I brought my dog in the room to watch the game before this inning for good luck. You’re welcome.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
PUT IN OLIVER PEREZ!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Even Francoeur is getting a hit!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
LYF baby
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
how does ones on base go below .300…..that is terrible…nice hit though
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
c’mon Jordan. Hitting is contagious
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
Get it French
Chief Noc-A-Homa - May 11, 2009
Oh jeez Jordan, he’s like a fucking tee ball tee
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
At least he hit it that time.
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
37k in 35 at bats
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
That’s damn hard to do.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
schafer still 0'fer risp
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
He will come around
That a boy - May 11, 2009
hopefully in October
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
I love all you guys. I really do.
And I love Jane Sams’ fat ass, for the Cochran firm.
Chief Noc-A-Homa - May 11, 2009
when i typed in schafer...and right clicked...the first suggested word is....cockchafer
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Wow, it does say that. What the fuck is a cockchafer?
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
kinda like blue balls i think
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
The cockchafer (colloquially called may bug, billy witch, or spang beetle, particularly in East Anglia) is a European beetle of the genus Melolontha, in the family Scarabaeidae.
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Sounds like some fancy personal grooming device.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Hmm… how is Wright going to score 4 runs on his own?
MatM - May 11, 2009
Exactly my thoughts
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Damn it… settle down Lowe.
BigG1392 - May 11, 2009
he should go away now...
Doghnut - May 11, 2009
OH NO. Moylan up in the pen
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Don’t let them score, damnit.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I hope D Lowe isn’t cold from sitting
MatM - May 11, 2009
What’s his pitch count?
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
88 now
MatM - May 11, 2009
Nice play all thumbs
That a boy - May 11, 2009
That’s fine, no more runs in this inning, then Soriano/Gonzo time.
MatM - May 11, 2009
I want Gonzo/Soriano
That a boy - May 11, 2009
It ain't no thang
Now we have a save opp for my boy Money Mike
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
3 runs lead just means a save opportunity
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Strikes Lowe, you have a 3 run lead
MatM - May 11, 2009
God, they’ve been apologizing for the Mets since 7:15
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Why is Phillips questioning keeping feliciano in? Kotch was behind, so you go to a righty FUGA comes in, plus kotch… makes no sense.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Phillips is a douche
TennKen - May 11, 2009
He is a groupie who cares what he says
That a boy - May 11, 2009
I know. I love every employer that has fired me.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Easy does it, he’ll get out of it
MatM - May 11, 2009
Here comes bobby
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Why
That a boy - May 11, 2009
o christ moylan
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Leave Lowe in dammit
That a boy - May 11, 2009
He’s been getting hit hard this inning …
Lennox - May 11, 2009
Probably the right call
MatM - May 11, 2009
Here comes Petey!
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Oh gosh…. I don’t know if I can look.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Who is up next for the Muts?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Omar Santos, you know him… because I don’t
MatM - May 11, 2009
omar is a douche
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Does that make 3 Omars in the house?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Minaya, Infante, Santos?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Minaya
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Get em Pete!
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Please don’t blow it Bullpen!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
95 pitches for Lowe.
Is that too soon to pull him?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
When a guy is getting hit hard, it’s time to pull him.
Lennox - May 11, 2009
+1
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Ok Pete. All we need is one. Please.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
PICK UP DEE PHONE MOYLAN
Sid Bream's Moustache - May 11, 2009
GOOD JOB MOYLAN!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Whew. Breathes HUGE sigh of relief.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Jack is fucking MAIMING Tony.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
YEA RAKE
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009

eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
speed = good
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I love small ball
MatM - May 11, 2009
PERFECT HIT AND RUN
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Wish I could have seen it, even the damn replay froze.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Did bobby just do a hit and run wtf
That a boy - May 11, 2009
stunned disbelief…
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Yeah, hit and run with Rake…. 1st and 3rd. I likey
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Good job! Norton & Kelly!!!
Speaking of Norton – did y’all see that article on the Braves site about him and his parents?
Heartbreaking story.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Yeah that was sad:(
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Holy shit that was awesome.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Love the team that came out to play tonight!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
Can we get just one long ball?
TennKen - May 11, 2009
i love the announcers making a big deal of his avg. risp….when its dropped 100 points the past week
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Have Kelly swipe 2nd
MatM - May 11, 2009
i want to see his bat flipped to the dugout
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Let's ADD ON!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Damn good play by Wright
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
shiznit
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Damn, Martin laced that
MatM - May 11, 2009
They gonna give us credit for that run?
MatM - May 11, 2009
we dont have an ER tonight do we
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
i do not think so.
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
that last one was
TennKen - May 11, 2009
yep.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
wins a win i guess
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Weve been fucked by unearned runs so much…im not complaining
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
+1
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
But we have 13 hits
MatM - May 11, 2009
I’d pitch Bennett here
MatM - May 11, 2009
me too
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I’m not that brave.
I’d rather go with what we know and secure this first win.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Does Mike Pelfrey only have 6 strikeouts this year?!?
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
SOAR-EE-AH-NO
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
We really do need to start stealing some bases
MatM - May 11, 2009
This douchewad is still bitching about how “bad” our offense is
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
glad I'm on ptv
TennKen - May 11, 2009
+ 10
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
+4,567
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
I got SNY on extra innings
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Phillips… questioning their offense…. we havent had a healthy roster you fuck.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
He took up for us opening night.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
He was killing them opening night too.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Walks kill
That a boy - May 11, 2009
There is a reason that douchewad got fired….
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
I don’t like Soriano here, he looks like he is just going through the motions here
MatM - May 11, 2009
He always looks like hes going through the motions. Just effortless.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
“alex cora is a winning piece on a winning team”
REALLY?!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Funny shit this steve phillips is a dick rider we are winning 6-2 and all he can say is negative stuff!!
That a boy - May 11, 2009
Time for a ground ball for the DP.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
good luck with reyes
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Careful here – he’d love nothing better than to ding one to make up for that error.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
+1
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
Soriano says no
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
HAHAHAHAHAH
TennKen - May 11, 2009
good camera work
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Thats just NASTY
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
See ya late Jose
MatM - May 11, 2009

MatM - May 11, 2009
Sit down Jose!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
No way Jose
MatM - May 11, 2009
Groove it, hes not swinging.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Those last two pitchers were awfully borderline
MatM - May 11, 2009

MatM - May 11, 2009
Good make up for the 2-0 pitch
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
JO-K, JO-K JO-K JO-K, JO-K, JO-K
10-4 - May 11, 2009
lets see something Nasty
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
I’ve never liked Castillo
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Zip one in there at 95, let him try to hit it
MatM - May 11, 2009
94 mph CHEESE
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
or 94
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Oh god, thats nasty
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Niiiiiice pitch. Sit down!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Excellent comeback
eaheckman10 - May 11, 2009
High heater just nasty sit down ho
That a boy - May 11, 2009
Remember those hot as shit Pirates that took 2 outta 3 from us?
Yeah, they’re in last, 7 and a half out
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
votto is raking this year
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
I don’t like falling behind Beltran
MatM - May 11, 2009
Sori is pissed at himself
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
soriano even with 2 ks not as sharp today
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Ball 4...
Nope, that was a strike
MatM - May 11, 2009
Even Beltran can’t lay off the high pitch.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Love the high heat, can’t lay off it
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
Love that Matty Glide there!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Can it be possible that Gonzo AND Soriano will be unavailable tommorrow?
10-4 - May 11, 2009
That’s why I wanted Bennett or Carlyle
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Maybe, I think Bobby should’ve gone to Bennett with a 4 run lead for that reason
MatM - May 11, 2009
But Bennett scares the hell outta me.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Maybe we can get some more runs and someone else can pitch the 9th.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
night guys
Buttafuco13 - May 11, 2009
We rested O’Flaherty (sp?) tonight.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
For anyone who cares the Hawks just got bitched slapped again and lost the series.
That a boy - May 11, 2009
no shame in losing to lebron
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Losing to Lebron no but getting beat by double digits four times in a row yes!!
That a boy - May 11, 2009
point taken
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
that being said, youre talking to a bobcats (hah!) fan
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
MAC WITH THA WHEELS!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Nice job Heap

WhooHoo HEAP with a double!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
rumblin, bumblin, stumblin
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Make it 8-2 Matty!
TennKen - May 11, 2009
or not
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I hope Bobby can stick to a strict platoon with Anderson and Diaz, because it makes us so much better
MatM - May 11, 2009
couldn’t agree more
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I love PTV, but just once I’d love to see a play real time.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
We’re interrupting their conversation with a ball game.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Just me or does K-Rod look like hes added a few LBs
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
It’s not just you
MatM - May 11, 2009
I guess hes going with the wicky look.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
That happens when you from LA food to NY food.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Good pt, being from CT, yeah the food is richer, plus tons of late night places.
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
and Kotch just keeps on hitting. Guys a machine
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I’d put him in the 3 spot
MatM - May 11, 2009
While Chipper is out, that is
MatM - May 11, 2009
I would too, in fact
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I know he is slow but what about the two hole
That a boy - May 11, 2009
When Chip is back, definitely, then maybe have Yunel leading off, Kelly is better down in the order
MatM - May 11, 2009
this Krotchman guy continues to impress
That a boy - May 11, 2009
I’m beginning to really like Kotch!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
wow what a terrible throw
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
We can rest Gonzo tonight
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Now I’d feel safe to bring in Bennett.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
HAHA Nice throw Beltran!
“one of the most talented guys in baseball”
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
The catcher is telling him to throw a fastball down the middle
TennKen - May 11, 2009
GREAT PLAYERS NEVER MAKE MISTAKES
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
This guy is an idiot how do these people get jobs in this economy
That a boy - May 11, 2009
HE’S STILL FUCKING GOING ON ABOUT IT!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
And naturally, he’s talking about Red Sox players the whole time.
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
the lack of credit given to the braves this game is absurd
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
It’s disgusting
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
its tWWL, they have to suck NY Teams cocks…
cmdpsu15 - May 11, 2009
That was the worst throw ever… of all-time… well maybe not, but Beltran is god according to the announcers
MatM - May 11, 2009
If he can’t get around on this fastball, we have serious problems
MatM - May 11, 2009
Yea, these guys are just fucking wasting oxygen. I miss Joe and Boog.
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009

Not that anyone cares but my brother gave me a McCann jersey for my Birthday! I love it!!!

bigjoe - May 11, 2009
“Stole” is the key word!
Wish I could find a deal like that!
HEYJUDE - May 11, 2009
What the fuck is a “edge”?
MatM - May 11, 2009
Woo hoo!!
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Keep em coming baby
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
It’s impossible to have too many runs against the Muts.
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Dammit Schafer, how can we score that run from third when you walk?
10-4 - May 11, 2009
Let’s put up a 10 spot
TennKen - May 11, 2009
All this edge business… shut the hell up
MatM - May 11, 2009
16 hits! AND ITS ALL BECAUSE THE METS ARE MAKING TOO MANY MISTAKES!!!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
their bullpen is throwing it right into our bats
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
Head for those exits, bitches!
TennKen - May 11, 2009
So, this game if we win will get us back to .500?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
16-16
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Game and a half out!
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
Let’s not count our chickens before they hatch
MatM - May 11, 2009
If we get our shit together, we could leave NY with the lead?
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Depends on how the other teams in the division do, but we could definitely overtake the Mets
bigjoe - May 11, 2009
If we can get some wins above .500, man would it be great. I’d vote a 10 on the next Confidence Meter.
10-4 - May 11, 2009
DITTO THAT
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I’m liking this new and improved mets bullpen
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I’m going to watch the rest on espn. For giggles.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Make sure to take your blood pressure meds first
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
I did. In the form of margaritas.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
Steve "Edge" Phillips
TennKen - May 11, 2009
this is getting ridiculous lol
MatM - May 11, 2009
I changed it over and that was the first thing I heard.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
orel….he had no freaking chance to throw him out…calm down
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
LOL GIDP STFU
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Great DP!!!
NCChopper - May 11, 2009
Instead of talking about how we won, they’re talking about why they lost.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I dig it when we win with style, when my blood pressure isn’t through the roof
MatM - May 11, 2009
“Jimmy Rollins
playsstrikes out a fuckton with that "edge""Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
j. roll showing his edge off this year so far
bpk228480 - May 11, 2009
my sentiment exactly
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
Too bad he’s swinging an edge and not a bat.
TennKen - May 11, 2009
I don’t think they realise we now have more earned runs than the Mets
MatM - May 11, 2009
Lets get the K here
Zeus12888 - May 11, 2009
We may be responsible for ending the Muts 7-game winning streak.
Saweeet.
