Latest rumor I heard and a makes sense for both teams trade:

Jason Bay for Josh Becket? Thoughts?

[jme]

What a great game last night! What AMAZING seats we had. We saw the David Wright rundown happen right in front of us!! And the greatest view ever is walking towards the out of the door from the Delta 360 club to our seats and seeing the pitchers mound through the glass. PLUS we got a win!! It was a good night!

awesome!!!

Last night on the TV broadcast (While Parnell was awesome) I heard Collins' thoughts on the closer situation and the idea of not disrupting the entire staff / bullpen because of one series, and I agree. No need to shake everything up and negatively effect 3 or 4 guys. I'm just a dumb fan who hates seeing this team have a shit closer for my entire life. This money line was something to the effect of. we'll need to have some patience, in the short term.

in a HEARTBEAT. as in, before the ink dries. Beckett may have some arm left in him and would benefit from a league switch - Bay will never be anything in Flushing, and could use the familiar turf at Fenway. easy trade, perhaps for both teams.

yeah, about that...Francisco blows one or two more saves, and you'll lose the confidence this young team has discovered both offensively and defensively, grinding out leads to take to the 9th inning and watch disappear before their very eyes, without even having a chance to flash some leather. that shit won't last very long.

THANKS GRAM MAN for the freakin' awesome tix last night!!! that was just about the most fun i've had at Citi Field without my son present, so i can't say enough. concierge service is where it's at, my friends...ooh to live like a richer for just one day...

Most welcome GoP. Great time with great people. Couldn't have asked for anything more!

Sources are saying that the 2013 All Star game will be played at Citifield. Announcement to be made on Wednesday.

ditto, we were a fearsome quartet, and it's nice to sit close enough where they players can hear us yelling at, i mean, encouraging, them on.

i could care less about the All-Star game, though. i'd sneak down to the left-field landing for the HR derby tho.

Now days everybody want to talk like they got something to say
But nothing comes out when they move their lips;
Just a bunch of gibberish
And muthafuckas act like they forgot about Bay

[In A Silent Way]

oh boy ... what a night ...

I turned it off after the 3 run homer. Watched Stern on America's Got Talent instead. I think I chose wisely.

[In A Silent Way]

I'm not sure I understood what TC was saying in his presser, but I think it meant he wasn't going to let D-dubs take one for the team.

[jme]

sounds about right.

it didn't seem like Carrasco was trying ti throw at Braun, but i'm sure it was taken that way.

the next trip to Milwaukee will be interesting.

[In A Silent Way]

That looked like a breaking ball that went high and inside. The timing was horrible, but DJ's reaction looked like the pitch got away.

That umpire should eat a bag of dicks.

[jme]

yeah the dude hasn;t gotten innings, and he's he given a run out,. he's not trying to get thrown out.

dicks, indeed.

[In A Silent Way]

Why does it look like Mr Met is gettin hummer???

[In A Silent Way]

Tell the bullpen to get off their knees. They're blowing the game.

[In A Silent Way]

[In A Silent Way]

Carrasco DFA'd; Rob Carson recalled from Binghamton.

I guess Sandy has seen enough.

[gram-man]

I really didn't expect Carrasco to last long. He wasn't that good a pitcher last year.

[In A Silent Way]

Mejia was just promoted to the B-Mets. We shall watch his career with great interest.

[gram-man]

any word on how they're gonna use 'em? They stretching 'em out to start or do they want him in relief??

[GoPlastic]

last i'd heard, Terry wants him in the 'pen this year, with Young coming up to take Pelf's slot. Meija is still expected very much to be a starting candidate in the future, though.

[In A Silent Way]

Harvey, Wheeler & Mejia: gen K 2.0?

good lord, i hope not...i do expect better than that.

[In A Silent Way]

[concert andy]

good lord, i hope not...i do expect better than that.

Carrasco was about as good last as Generation K 1.0.

2.0 has got to better.

[GoPlastic]

i no like losing streaks. and Toronto looks pretty good right now, so they better break it today.

[In A Silent Way]

HR, RBI double, sac fly, passed ball ...

Yep, this has the makings of a long afternoon.

The Dude has a chance to get the Amazin's back in it with two on in the 5th.

[In A Silent Way]

Deuces wild: 2-2 count, 2 on, 2 outs ...


2 base hit scoring 2 runs!

[gram-man]

Base clearing double...GO DUDA!!!!

[GoPlastic]

that helps. c'mon Murph, pile it on here - the 2-out rally kids.

[gram-man]

Does not look like Dickey has good stuff today

[In A Silent Way]

oh, and is it just me, or does Mr. Redlegs look like Mr. Met's creepy old-timey uncle?

Mr. Met, can you show us where Mr. Redlegs touched you?

[In A Silent Way]

Is TC going to let Dickey hit with 2 on and no out in the 6th?

[gram-man]

Bases loaded and no outs...ain't gonna happen.

[In A Silent Way]

Didn't think so. Dr. Baxter to the plate, please. Paging Dr. Baxter.

[gram-man]

Sac fly from Baxter plates us a run! 4-3, runners on 1st and 2nd...one out!

[In A Silent Way]

At least they're chipping away at the lead.

[In A Silent Way]

Bottom 7th, 2 on, nobody out for #28.

[GoPlastic]

aroldis chapman has an ERA of 0.00 through 19.1 innings entering today's bottom of the 7th...Wright and Duda have reached against him with no outs. Murphy at the plate.

I say you MUST pinch-hit for Davis regardless of what Murph does, unless Murph jacks one over the fence.

[In A Silent Way]

Bases loaded, no out, TC pulls Ike for Turner.

And the sac fly ties the game. The boys are clawing their way back.

[GoPlastic]

(with a little help from an error), pinch-hitting for Ike was the money move. tie game.

[jme]

you guys are better than gamecast.

[murg]

This team desperately needs Thole/Tejada/Bay back

[In A Silent Way]

Hairston hitting for Nickeas, runners at the corners, two out.

Rob Johnson will be coming in for the top 8.

[In A Silent Way]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaand.... it's bases loaded for Baxter.
