8 homegrown Mets in the lineup tonight, cool.

My first chance to see Nieuwenhuis, I'm excited.

2. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:20 PM (#4101759)

Free preview of MLB EI is awesome.

Mike Pelfrey is not.

3. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:20 PM (#4101760)

Hello! Just turned on the game.

Oh Mike Pelfrey. Could you not be terrible, please?

4. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:30 PM (#4101781)

I love Ruben's ABs.

5. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:46 PM (#4101824)

That's better, Pelf!

Too bad Ike and Bay are such stiffs at the moment.

6. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:48 PM (#4101836)

I bought in hard on Ike in fantasy leagues this year. And named a team after the Valley Fever thing.

I blame myself for what is occurring so far.

7. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:55 PM (#4101851)

I think Ike is the only Met I have in fantasy this year. I was hoping to get Niese or Duda, but it never worked out.

8. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 07:58 PM (#4101861)

I have a lot of Mets this year. Wright, Murphy (as a backup), Johan, and now Francisco off waivers.

And Reyes.

Pelf! Going well.

9. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:00 PM (#4101867)

Whoops.

10. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:02 PM (#4101871)

Bad call.

11. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:03 PM (#4101875)

As soon as Keith and Ron (and I) said how good Pelf was doing, this happened. It's my fault.

12. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:03 PM (#4101877)

Pelf sucks.

13. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:08 PM (#4101887)

People laugh at me, but I've always thought Pelf had a good swing.

14. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:14 PM (#4101903)

Good David is such a fantastic thing.

15. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:22 PM (#4101925)

Ron is pissed.

16. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:35 PM (#4101962)

KIRK!

17. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:35 PM (#4101963)

Kirk!

18. Adam Starblind Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:35 PM (#4101964)

Kirk to the bridge!!!! (not really, but you can't coin something like that too early)

19. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:38 PM (#4101966)

Late, but Nieuwenhuis!!

20. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:48 PM (#4101984)

I like this Mike Pelfrey that changes speeds and locations.

21. Adam Starblind Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:52 PM (#4101996)

So, it looks like there's about 3500 fans at the game tonight. Thanks, Wilpons!

22. Adam Starblind Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:53 PM (#4101999)

I had no idea Tom Goodwin was with the Mets.

23. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:55 PM (#4102008)

Crap. I was really looking forward to some Wright awesomeness there.

24. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 08:57 PM (#4102012)

Murphy, that was a bad idea.

25. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:06 PM (#4102038)

Boo! Give him one more guy.

26. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:06 PM (#4102041)

Shame Pelf couldn't get out of that inning.

I would like to believe this is a positive for Pelf, but there needs to be more.

Relying on a 41-year-old journeyman here does not fill me with confidence.

27. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:09 PM (#4102050)

Having Batista and DIckey on the same staff is pretty sweet, in terms of the whole thoughtful/intelligence thing.

I am also not all that confident in the former's pitching ability.

28. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:11 PM (#4102054)

Whew.

29. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:30 PM (#4102096)

One batter too late, Terry.

30. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:31 PM (#4102099)

Why was Batista pitching in a tie game in the 7th?

31. Esoteric Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:36 PM (#4102113)

Jayson Werth double play: you know it's going to happen.

32. Esoteric Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:37 PM (#4102119)

And who called it?

33. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:37 PM (#4102120)

NICE

34. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:37 PM (#4102121)

That works.

35. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:38 PM (#4102123)

Good to see you here, Eso.

36. Esoteric Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:38 PM (#4102124)

Boy that's going to go down as a mighty fine contract.

37. Esoteric Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:39 PM (#4102131)

Thanks, Lassus. Hope springs eternal for the Mets this season! (And the Nats, but I'll defer to the overwhelming pro-Met sentiment on BTF.)

38. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:44 PM (#4102144)

Ruben Tejada is awesome.

39. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:45 PM (#4102147)

I've been down on Tejada as a hitter the last couple of years. So far, I've enjoyed him this year.

40. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:45 PM (#4102149)

but I'll defer to the overwhelming pro-Met sentiment on BTF

Heh. Not this year.

41. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:46 PM (#4102151)

OK, Davis, time to get it done.

42. Esoteric Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:46 PM (#4102152)

So sure, Jayson Werth looks like he's going to be a $150,000,000+ suckhole of failure. But hey, Adam LaRoche: lookin' good!

43. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:46 PM (#4102153)

Come on Ike, let's get this done.

44. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:48 PM (#4102156)

I actually took a chance on Werth for my fantasy team this year. Not looking like such a great idea.

45. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 09:49 PM (#4102160)

Ike looks all messed up right now.

46. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:09 PM (#4102224)

It is painful to listen to Ron and Keith - possibly even honestly - talk of Hairston like his presence is a positive. Keith seemed almost surprised he struck out there.

47. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:19 PM (#4102260)

Murph?

MURPH!

48. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:19 PM (#4102261)

Daniel Murphy can play second base.

49. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:19 PM (#4102263)

Daniel Murphy: second baseman.

50. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:21 PM (#4102267)

Please win the game, Mets, I would like to go to bed early.

51. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:26 PM (#4102279)

That was kind of hilarious.

52. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:26 PM (#4102281)

Craziness!

53. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:28 PM (#4102291)

Come on, Murph!

54. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:28 PM (#4102292)

Oh, be quiet, Gary. No one is walking Murphy to get to Wright.

55. AJMcCringleberry Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:29 PM (#4102298)

Ballgame!

56. Dog on the sidewalk has an ugly bracelet Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:29 PM (#4102299)

Daniel Murphy can also hit.

Weeeeeeeeeee.

57. Joshemy Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:29 PM (#4102300)

MURPH!

Put it in the books!

58. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:29 PM (#4102301)

Daniel Murphy is pretty good.

59. Lassus Posted: April 09, 2012 at 10:31 PM (#4102308)

Good thing Werth sucks, Baxter looked like a keystone kop there.
