Carlos Beltran - All Star. Hearing those words again makes me very happy.

I'll say it now: I want Beltran to play out the rest of his career as a Met.

Hard to see how they'd replace his production in RF if he left. If he's a 2-3 million/year sign, I say do it. If he costs substantially more, then he's too risky.

As someone who has a Carlos Beltran jersey, I agree with Rask. I was hoping Gee would sneak into the game, even though he doesn't deserve it.

Rivera got a giant strike zone on Beltran's at bat.

5. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:32 PM (#3868464)

Paulino!

6. Joshemy Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:32 PM (#3868465)

Bay! Duda! Paulino!

7. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:33 PM (#3868466)

Shouldn't they pinch run for Duda?

8. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:34 PM (#3868467)

He was out by a mile, shouldn't have sent him.

Jesus, can't anyone field at SS?

Meanwhile, Gritner guns another one down ...

10. Joshemy Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:35 PM (#3868470)

I have no idea why he got sent. He was dead meat.

11. Joshemy Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:36 PM (#3868471)

AJM, the only guy left was Hairston, who had to hit for Frankie if Tejada walked. You could have used a pitcher to pinch run, put Hairston in left and moved Bay to first I guess.

12. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:37 PM (#3868472)

I woke just in time to see Rivera fail. Duda was out by about as much as I've ever seen anyone be out, but oh well.

When Sunday afternoon Mets-Yankees games featuring Rivera blown saves get <10 posts, things are bad in Mets chatter world.

I have no idea why he got sent. He was dead meat.

Maybe that's a "Rivera is pitching" send. I can't imagine anything else.

14. Joshemy Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:39 PM (#3868476)

Ugh Angel, should have just played it as a double.

15. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:39 PM (#3868477)

The way Pagan played that, they're lucky it only became a triple.

16. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 09:41 PM (#3868479)

AJM, the only guy left was Hairston, who had to hit for Frankie if Tejada walked.

Ah, ok.

17. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:01 PM (#3868485)

Gooo Pena.

18. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:02 PM (#3868486)

Is Jeter the best defensive SS they have?

19. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:04 PM (#3868489)

They probably have some guy in AA who could hit .150 but play passable D.

20. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:05 PM (#3868490)

Jason Bay, hero to all.

21. Joshemy Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:05 PM (#3868491)

Hey Jason Bay!

22. AJM Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:05 PM (#3868492)

BAY, #######!

23. Raskolnikov Posted: July 03, 2011 at 10:10 PM (#3868493)

Jason Bay!
