I'm getting a little worried though about Mets vs a lefty



Well it is Glendon Rusch so Im not that worried.
Ill be worried next week when they face Randy Johnson, and of course Brenly skipped the #5 starter and Johnson will be set to go against the Mets next week. But they will miss Schilling.

2 things:
No 1. I'd like to join the crack committee. I am a lifelong METS fan who hates the Yankees and the Braves. I think I can add something to the committee.

No 2. I went to the game Wednesday. Tino got the shit booed out of him. It was great.

BE MORE FUNNY!

Can we get McEwing to bat 8 times in the lineup? ;)
While there is no comparison between Randy Johnson and Glendon Rusch, Mets seem to do worse vs junkballing Lefties.

R. Johnson 1999-2001 vs Mets:
3.58 ERA W-2 L-2 Inn-27.2 H-29 R-17 ER-11 HR-4 BB-9 K-36 AVG.-.269

At Shea, ERA -4.76, .284 BA

(of course, Now I ruuuuned it, and put the whammy on it )

Well the first time the Mets faced Randy Johnson he shut them down, and the last time they faced him which was last year he shut them down. All the starts in the middle the Mets rocked him.

Id like to see the Mets sweep Milwaukee but Ill live with 2 out of 3.

Well, I was partially right tonight.
Mets had trouble vs Rusch, but Payton didn't suck - he hit HR for only run.

Of course the story was Estes - and I hope this is the real Estes.
1st 1Hit complete game shut out since David Cone in 1991.

At least the hit was legit - I saw a Gooden 1-hitter that should have been an error.

Great pitching - lets just try to warm those bats a little.

Fuckin figures..I get home from work and the first at bat I see is Young's hit in the 7th. I should have just left the TV off...

This was the typical Glendon Rusch game too. Pitched more than well enough to win but got zero run support. He'll either have a night like this or give up 8 runs in 2 innings.

Wow!!! Last 2 days havent been too bad for our pitching have they? Id like to be able to win these games 6-0 instead of 1-0, but its all good. D'Amico against his old mates should be fun to watch tomorrow.

Back in first place :) It feels good.

Plaaasure for me, the hammersavage, to be on the crack committee. The greatest committee in the vurld in the greatest city in the vurld, the big apple. I remember 1985 Madison Square Garden I wrestled Hulk Hogan....

I thought you guys would like this. I found some info and pics for the new stadium that is on hold.








What's up with the new stadium?:
In 1998, Mets owner Fred Wilpon unveiled a model of his proposed new stadium for the team, a Ebbets Field-like structure with a retractable roof which would be constructed in the parking lot of the current stadium. The proposed facility features a grass field that can be rolled completely out of the stadium in 15 minutes, ensuring the field will get the proper amount of sunlight when the roof is closed. The roof would be closed when the Mets are not playing to protect the stadium's structure. Baseball capacity for the yet-to-be-named ballpark will be 45,000 seats with 78 luxury boxes, while seating for other events (such as NCAA basketball, tennis matches and concerts) could be expanded to as many as 60,000. The stadium features all sorts of modern amenities, but has a marked resemblance to the former home of the Brooklyn Dodgers. The outside design will include red brick and limestone, there will be a rotunda behind home plate and the seats will be close to the field. Wilpon boasted that many of the seats in the new stadium's upper deck will be closer to the field than mezzanine seats at Shea Stadium.

Before the Sept. 11 attack on the World Trade Center, Mayor Rudy Giuliani had hoped to leave a legacy to the City of New York with new stadiums for each team before his term expired in January. Talk for the proposed $800 million stadium continued briefly in November and December, with Giuliani placing the framework in place, but incoming mayor Michael Bloomberg quickly dashed those ideas, citing a lack of funding in the budget.

In summer 2001, the Mets had conducted environmental studies on the parking lot at Shea Stadium -- the site where the proposed stadium was to have been built. Shea Stadium will be destroyed to serve as a parking lot for the new facility if and when it becomes feasible.

LMMFYBO!! Funny shit Hammer, and of course, great to have a true die hard Mets fan like yourself on the committee. Now if only PeterDragon would "officially" join us....

Second, those pics of the proposed new stadium are awesome. But, itll be a long time till we get that gem as our ballpark. :(

nice looking plans for the new stadium, I just hope it's not going to be like some of the other new ones that have swimming pools and restaurants and hotels and amusement parks and spas and shopping centers and brothels, or whatever other crap there is out there. I hate that shit. If you're gonna go to a baseball game, here's a good idea: WATCH THE FUCKING BASEBALL GAME!!!

Anyways, great to get the sweep today, last year it took until mid-July to finally get one. Should be the first of many to come.

It would be nice though for the offense and the pitching to be on the same page for once. It's either a 2-1 win, or the 8-7 come from behind variety. A win's a win, but a nice smooth 6-0 win would be nice for a change.

It'd also be nice for a 1-2-3 9th inning, but I must remain realistic here... :rolleyes:

Beautiful Stadium, history will be made in it in the near future for sure...

Nice win today, we needed to sweep the Brewers, keeping pace with those damn Expos. Next up, the D'Backs, Stottlemyre and Leiter are up. This should be an excellent game. Let's Go Mets motherbitches...

And here I thought I was a "member emeritus" :)
I would be happy to officially "represent" - I've just been too lazy to figure out a cool way to add the objectives .

As for stadium, some of those pictures are 5 years old. Mets had been promoting new stadium since 1995, and considering they now have the 3rd oldest stadium in the NL - behind Wrigley (Mecca), and Dodger Stadium (a beautifully kept facility)- it is way overdue.

One of the lesser problems about 9/11 is it will push a new stadium off indefinitely. Costs in NY are too much for Wilpon to fork over without some sort of help.

I went to today's game - (happy my seats are in Lodge and under cover) and this is another good sign. While I hate falling behind, Mets squandered opportunities early, and D'Amico hung a few, Mets once again showed that they are capable of big come backs (even if against terrible Brewers), and bullpen is good and deep.
Best sight was Vaughn lumbering around the bases -
(not to take away from Payton's game, but Vaughn looks like a charging Elephant).

Guess we start having an offense when we fall behind by 4 or more runs. :) Good game today, i had a feeling D'Amico would get battered a little bit, since the Brewers know him so well. Great game by Payton today.

Damn Benitez though....at least he struck out Stairs to end the game.

Oh, and of course...officially...welcome aboard Pete, good to see that you conquered your laziness lol.

The Mets begin a 6-game road trip starting tonight with 3 games against the World Champion Diamondbacks. The scheduled pitching match-ups for the three games goes as follows: Tonight Leiter vs Helling Tomorrow Trachsel vs Johnson Thursday Estes vs Stottlemyre. The Mets need to take 2 out of 3 from the D'Backs, the bonus would be beating Randy Johnson on Wednesday Night. They had a great homestand this week going 5-1, but now comes the true test. Can they do it on the road as well. The Mets finsh their road trip with 3 against the Astros at Enron, oops I mean Astros Field. Mets need to better than .500 on this trip in order for it to be a sucess and we need to get Piazza back into the lineup. So let's go METS!!

Mets are going to win the World Series in 2002!!!!

Going over .500 is not a necessity on this trip. yeah it would be nice and they are capable of it, but if they go 3-3 or 2-4 on this trip, Its not going to cause heads to roll.

They are 3 1/2 games ahead of the Braves, and are tied with the Expos, a team that is playing well right now, but lets be honest, come September this team is not going to be in the Division title race. The Mets are in good shape considering they are 15-10, and in those 25 games, have had their complete every day lineup for a grand total of 5 games.

This almost guarantees that Randy Johnson will throw a perfect game tommorrow against us lol.

What a game so far tonight. Gee, i wonder why Rick Helling wasnt even good enough for the crappy Texas staff? Im hoping we pass the 21-2 score that the Angels had against the Indians today. That would be sweet.
