1. are getting old

3. just can't handle pitching in ny, a la weaver, vazquez, kenny rogers, jose contreras, etc
i think mel stottlemyre has earned his paycheck. see david wells, david cone, jimmy key, andy pettitte, roger clemens, orlando hernandez, etc. |
he obviuosly earned through the glory years pre 2000. clemens was a hall of famer when he got here, orlando was a national star upon arriving and now hes 6-2, cone won 20 games with mets was a star with jays too, key was a very good pitcher throughout his career, Petite I agree! Johnson what happen to him? Mazzone did just fine with wright last year now he has a 10.00 era. Pavanno won 18 last year this year hell be lucky to win 15 with a better offense. I just think his foot always half way out the door, deciding evry year right before spring traing if hes going to come back. I think at this point hes just not getting through to the players anymore.
Dont get me wrong 4 world series he has earned his keep. I just think they should have quitly let him retire before the season, without really trying to persuade him to come back. |

You have two chances then for that sneaky since it's a double header....
Plus Ishii is pitching.
My first Mets games today. But as mentioned before, the Giants are my fav national league team. But I might keep it secret, I don't need any A Hole chants. |

It's possible. I think we'll take 1 of these games. It's so hard to win both of a double header. Most likely we'll lose the Ishii game. |

The two East divisions and the NL West (barely) are the only divisions to have more than 2 teams above .500. The West has 3 teams (though the Dodgers are only 1 game above). The AL East has 4 teams above .500 and in the NL East, all 5 teams are.
We're due for a hot and heavy race in New York boys, whichever team you're a fan of. The fifth place Phillies are 1.5 games out of first. !!! |

Giants scored just 1 run in 5 innings vs. Ishii |

Yanks snapped their losing streak with last night's 4-3 win against Twins, but returned to their losing ways again, with a 9-3 loss today. Brown was doing well, but then hit two batters in the 6th inning, which led to the Twins scoring 5 runs and taking the lead.
For Tuesday's Mets vs Astros opener, it's too bad we'll miss a Clemens vs. Martinez matchup by a game. It will instead be Pedro vs. Roy Oswalt, which might still be a good pitcher's duel. |

Well... he said that because he figures he has 2 shots to get it right. We'll see how Benson fares in the second game. |

World Series rematch starts tomorrow - Red Sox vs Cardinals
Well, maybe not quite the same, with Sox not having Schilling, Martinez, or Lowe, among many others |
