Pitching Probables 8/5 R. Villone vs NYM (Leiter) 8/6 W. Miller vs NYM (Heilman) 8/7 T. Redding vs NYM (Trachsel) I am thinking of going to the game on tuesday, and being a cheapie I am going to go for that 2 ticks for like $2 deal, with the large coke wrapper. *Villone has been great for the astros. A 3-1 Pitcher with a low ERA for the price of a minor league player...gotta love it. One bright spot. *No more Pete Munro. Since i will be at the game on tuesday... I am hoping for.... WLW Predictions.....
i think if we were to lose a game it would be to leiter in the first game. his record is good at 10-5, his era is a little high, but thats because he got off to a rocky start, but has been dominant lately. And Villones control is starting to make his outings shorter and likely costly. Wade Miller will bounce back from the horrible start in atl. LWW
The Mets suck. If we don't sweep then there is something wrong with the heart of this team. We need to stomp these guys.
The following winning teams (.500 or higher) must have no heart as they have all played series in which they did not sweep the Mets: St. Louis Chicago Montreal Houston San Francisco Seattle Philadelphia Florida Arizona Atlanta Los Angeles Colorado It looks like the Yankees are the only winning team that the Mets have played that have heart.
Obviously, there's never a 'sure thing' in baseball, but it's sad when I have no confidence in a win when Miller is pitching this year. LLW
Starting Lineups: Mets: Cedeno RF Reyes SS Floyd LF Wigginton 3B Clark 1B Gonzalez CF Wilson C McEwing 2B Leiter P Astros: Biggio CF Ensberg 3B Bagwell 1B Kent 2B Berkman LF Everett SS Ausmus C Porter RF Villone P Go Stros!
Any info on how far the Tony Clark HR went? It hit the "A" on the All-Star banner hanging over the Crawford boxes. That was a serious blast.
Leiter's cap brim has a nice little shiney spot the size of a half dollar. I wonder what that could be? Watch for it, his right side.
Ron Villone is getting hammered. Someone needs to point out that meatballs over the center of the plate - those aren't good.
hey, at least the cardinals are losing 4-0 in the 7th...thats all that ,matters right now since were pretty much out of this game
Gawd damn this game sucks...glad I moved my plan to go to the game until thursday. man...10-1 Mets.... Astros suck....
its official...cardinals lost...so this game wont really matter much standings wise...just shows management that we are in need of TWO starters, not one.
