He is better at his hitting than his D so I'd imagine I'd obsess more over the thing I'm better at too.

Granted, a good hitting outfielder will allow people to overlook defensive shortcomings, but we're not talking Manny Rameriez here....we're talking Daniel Murphy. Maybe a few less hours in the batting cages and some more working with Razor Shines in the outfield would do him good. Just a thought.

I'm going on Saturday, so I'll be able to see for myself.

Castillo took a risk....technically it is not the right play....but nothing was working off of Johnson yesterday - the 3b was playing back and was an inexperienced 3b at that (according to the Marlins announcers, anyway). If you get on, now you have 1st and 3rd, 1 out and a pinch hitter coming up. I have no problem with that play. Murph....not only did he drop the ball, he broke in 2-3 steps before scampering back. This game is on Murph in the field, and the offense collectively not hitting a lick. It was nice however to see a 2hour game......

I don't know about him being boo'd. Ollie on the other hand.........might as well be Heilman...he is going to get an earful.

Maybe e-mailing Cerrone? Good luck!

And the wall is lit up because there is a scoreboard of some sort on it. Man, its ugly.....lol Sat, 4 Apr 2009 01:02:37 +0000 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/03/random-different-view-on-tv/#IDComment18129875 http://www.metsblog.com/2009/04/03/random-different-view-on-tv/#IDComment18129104 It really is......I don't know if it because it's a Yankee thing.....but when they panned after Cano's HR ball...which Kay was WAYYY too exited about...I was thinking - this is one ugly stadium.

The park looks GREAT. I flipped over to MLB Network, and I don't like the new Yankee Stadium at all. That oversized scoreboard/video screen in CF looks so outta place.

"Sheffield will play right field on what Manuel hopes will be a regular basis, potentially supplanting Ryan Church for the starting job." Think the Mets have bigger plans for him than they were letting on??

I never started receiving the e-mails you were getting - so maybe that is the default if you get a notification to your comment? I really do like this new comment section, btw!!!

Now Fox puts a camera in front of him, and I don't know if it is his speech pattern or what....but I can't stand the guy!

I think if you go into your profile for your account, you can select your e-mail preferences. I unclicked the e-mail options, and haven't gotten one yet.

Then I think.....he certainly isn't going to start with the Phillies......is he going to start with the Reds? It doesn't seem like there are starter jobs out there for them so he has no choice but to conform and be a role player. When right.....and that should be the debate (I don't think he is)......he is a right handed power threat at the plate, and I would love him coming off the bench as opposed to a Marlon Anderson. If he misbehaves even slightly, you cut him....I believe he will only cost the league minimum anyway. But....then again, I'm sure there is a reason why he is even available at this point.....And it is a combination of everyones' fears here......nothing left, and bad attitude.

I also love how the users can moderate themselves - I would imagine this blog will soon return to the great conversation it had when it was first starting up now that we can filter the trolls off this site.
