Ok, everyone that thinks it's acceptable to ruin a guys health, because he won't be your problem next year,
a) does not deserve to call himself a baseball fan
and b) does deserve some hired goons to come around to his house and dislocate every single joint in his body.
Plus you can expect billion dollar lawsuits from the pitchers if their arms blow out due to intended overuse.
doesn't really make a whole lot of sense next to this one
It's so unacceptable, but the Mets have won 80% of those starts.
You could change it to something like the Mets should let Perez and Johan throw around 120 pitches in all of the close games; it's likely one of two of the games they pitch, if not more, will be a blowout on either side.
Manuel has definitely changed his stance with some of his pitchers anyway; I'd say at this point he is looking for an extra inning, or even an extra out or two, from all of his starters save for Maine. Santana did throw a career high number of pitches yesterday, but I saw him hit 94 in the 7th, which I believe was his fastest pitch of the night. I am a tad worried about him throwing all those pitches; he's thrown over 110 in 3 of his last 6 starts, but it isn't like he's a kid, and as long as the Mets are monitoring his workload I think everything should be ok.
Santana now has a 156 ERA+, which is 1 point better than his 05 season,a nd 5 behind his 06 season. I know many people have already handed the Cy over to Webb, and with the 19 wins he already has he is pretty much a lock, but Santana has a 156 ERA+ in 184 innings, Webb 166 in 184 as well; they are tied for the league lead in IP. It's possible Santana ends the season as the more deserving candidate.
Yeah, until the end of the 1960s. You got your stinkin' playoffs so baseball could be more like football and baseketball. Don't start complaining about it now.
Why is Perez unlikely to be back next year? He's had success with them, they'll need him, and they obviously have the money to re-sign him. What am I missing?
