Can't frickin believe...
...that punk azz Coco Crisp had his suspension reduced by 2 games and Aki’s was upheld. Such crap.
Jamie DeLuca
Even worse
Coincidentally, the last three games of the suspension are the series here against Boston, so he won’t get a chance to have the Rays ‘logic’ explained to him any further by Rays fans or any of our pitchers.
Here’s to hoping that somehow, we can get our hands on Papelbon.
MVP: CC
He’s so hot right now!

Rec'd
because its definitely one of the best movies of all time.
and you stole my mvp
Blake
USF--Class of '09
i'd like to mvp Pena,
but the dude only played one rehab game, and didn’t even seem like he was taking live BP before that, so i’m tempering my expectations for him for this series. get your timing back Pena, just in time for Boston…
i still don't like Navarro batting so low, but i guess he's not really an RBI guy, or a power threat, so it make sense...
i’d still prefer (when we’re done with this interleague bullshit):
Upton CF
Crawford LF
Longoria 3B
Pena 1B
Hinske RF
Floyd DH
Navarro C
Iwamura 2B
Bartlett SS
I'll take Longo for MVP
He’s red hot right now and he should be able to get some good swings on the rookie pitcher.

Yes, we really do have fans.

Good afternoon gang!
It’s the METS fan that likes to come to a team blog that likes to have some fun. Congrats on the awesome ball you guys are playing. Today, the Mets clobbered the yankees in game one of a Double Header 15 – 6. Carlos Delgado (the afterthought) hit two HR’s, one for a grand slam and drove in 9 RBI. The METS posers didn’t post one picture during the entire game. I made a comment about it and one guy just said; “We chose not to.”
Well hell man, remove the butt plug from your rectum and have some fun. They could learn a lesson from you guys. Enjoy the game and the rest of your season.

wind up hitting .300? I see more like .280 this season with a very nice amount of homers and rbi’s. Fuck Ellsbury
Hitting behind Upton is gonna help quite a bit...
Especially if they keep him in front of Pena. His RBI should end nicely.
I think it's a strategy.
