Well, at least 2 New york area teams out of the 3 that played, were victorious. Everyone is calling for Phillips to be fired. how will this help? Let's look at...
1) The 5 game losing streak will definitely end with the first decision between the Brewers and Mets. 2) The Mets will win at least one game in Milwaukee. 3)...
Thowe Idiot has managed to use the much vaunted Mets bullpen in such a way that they have the worst era (5.46) in the National league. If he has a guy who is...
Those of you that are badmouthing Cedeno, can blame his 1+ 1/6 bad years on Valentine and Howe. He performs best in right field, and Burnitz is a superior...
It's fashionable these days to knock certain players, and give others free passes. Well I'm not jumping on that bandwagon. Here's your S--t list,and my...
Does anyone remember this guy who pitched for the Mets in, I believe, the early '80's (please correct me if I'm wrong.). Well, anyway, I've heard that his son...

... Actullay early 70's, 1972-1976 and 1977 with the Dodgers. His best year appears to have been 1975 when he appeared in 29 games and went 7-6 with a 4.07...
What makes everyone so sure that if Piazza play first, that he won't heave double play balls into left field? When Johnnie Bench and Todd Zeile, and Joe Torre,...
I think you should keep the attached garbage on the NewYorkMetsNews list. This is a non-story. The story goes that Rey Sanchez was either cutting his hair, or...
I was listening to Gary Cohen during the late innings yesterday when Howe was making some defensive moves: Perez went to left instead of Floyd, Cedeno to right...
As of the end of the start of yesterdays Yankees game, the following are the nasty stats: Jay Payton was hitting .328 (9th in the league), having gone 2 for 3...
I didn't watch the middle of the game tonight because I was out. I saw the 1st couple of innings, left with the Mets leading 2-1, and saw the last inning with...
Ummm, I said that I didn't see the middle innings because I had to be out, and was hoping that someone who did see the game might reply. But I guess that I'm...
I think that "HGTA" ought to do some computer checking. Jay Bell has an on-base % of over .400. Roger Cedeno seems to have come out of his hitting funk. I...
Remember the proposed 2002 batting order that everyone was excited about (that never happened)? Cedeno, Alfonzo, Alomar, Piazza, Vaughn, Payton, Burnitz,...
Who asked Roberto Alomar to bunt with 2 outs and a runner on 1st? Doesn't he know that a double will score a run? Why doesn't Howe explain that it is more...
Ummm. The Mets play at Coors tomorrow. Who thinks that the Mets will average 10 runs per game there? LTM Because it's a bigger field to compensate for the...
With all the hype, youd think that Reyes is the next coming of Alfonso. Well, I'd rather have traded this .252 hitter in AAA ball, who has an ob% of less than...
After a week of playing in hitter-friendly Turner Field and hitter-friendly Miami Stadium, against 2 of the weaker pitching staffs, Jay Payton has leaped into...
Jay Payton at Coors: BA= .362-------OB%=.393-------------------- Jay Payton on road: BA= .316--------OB%=.379-------------------- Jay Payton combined: BA=...
Rick Reed threw a 3-hit shutout yesterday, against the first place team in their division. Do you think "HGTA" would have allowed Reed to pitch past the 7th...
You must remember that Thomson is pitching in The Ballpark which is the Coors of the AL. So Valentine and Wilpon got rid of .320 hitting, good fielding Payton,...
Burnitz contract ends this year. We are not stuck with him next year. He should play center every day, and if he does a decent job, he could be signed for $3...
i think the first time Thompson pitched in a decent pitchers ballpark (shea) he got lit up. Ande then he kept getting lit up. It was good to get rid of him,...

according to Len Berman (ch 4), Mike Piazza could be out the rest of the season. Pedro has back pain, so Bruce Chen pitches for Boston vs Yankees. Can another...
It's too bad that it took injuries to Piazza and Vaughn in order to put Alomar in the proper slot (3rd) in the batting order. In the #3 slot, Alomar was an all...
Bell's ob% is not just a little over .400, it is exactly .456. Why isn't he playing short instead of McEwing, whose ob% at the start of today's game was .300?...
I was switching back and forth between "American Idol" and the game. The Mets were ahead 4-1, and Seau seemed to be pitching a good game. Then, when I...
