I hope they know they did not beat us we beat ourselves

Is this directed at the Brewers or the Phillies? Cause we both beat them.

Was watching an episode of House MD on USA network this evening. He was questioning some crazy lady, asked her about her meds. She replies she likes baseball, something about the Mets, he says "meds" not "Mets". Etc, etc... Afterwards the other docs asked if he found out anything and he replied "yeah, the Mets suck".

Couldn't find that clip on the YouTubes. Wish I had DVR'd it so I could grab that "Mets suck" clip.

I just realised, with Shea gone, I can never show monkeywiz where his da saw his first baseball game.

Nothing is sacred to those metropolitan monsters. Nothing.

Omar Minaya is like Ed Wade with a big budget. But not as smart.

I love the comment about if games ended in the 8th inning the Mets would have won the NL East. Except they don't.

His argument should have been that Phillies are all poo faces. It would have made as much sense.

by **TenuredVulture** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 00:48:48

I think the Yankees/Red Sox almost rivals Phillies/Mets.

by **ReadingPhilly** » Mon Feb 23, 2009 00:49:28

leaving the Phillies and Braves look up at them at the end of the season.

that reads like something that got 4th place in a fifth grade essay contest up in queens

Murphy: The Mets' O'Neill?

Mets manager Jerry Manuel proclaimed Daniel Murphy his regular left fielder Sunday, yet Manuel isn't the only team official enamored with the former 13th-round pick, who has appeared in just 49 major-league games.

One Mets official says left fielder Daniel Murphy could be "our O'Neill," referring, of course, to former Yankees outfielder Paul O'Neill, who was known for his grit and hitting ability.

Mets general manager Omar Minaya, saying Murphy is less athletic than O'Neill was, prefers another comparision — Red Sox first baseman Kevin Youkilis.

"He gives you good at-bats, tough at-bats," Minaya says of Murphy. "He's just a grinder — a blue-collar grinder."

Minaya projects Murphy as a potential .300 hitter who will hit between 15 and 20 home runs per season.

FTN, you are the minors guy. WHat the heck are they seeing in Daniel Murphy that I'm not? He just looks like some guy. What is so special? Youkilis DOMINATED the minors with his ability to get on base, and Murphy's numbers are nowhere near close.

You and your calculator numbers. What they see is grit. And he's a blue collar player. That's a lot more important than dumb stuff like getting on base.

Hes nothing like Youkilis at all.

PECOTA projects a .327/.405 line for Murphy. Hes crap.
