NYU 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 Oliver Perez is laughable. It's important -- extremely important -- the Mets win this one and possibly pull into a half game behind Philly.

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 It's extremely irritating. I don't mind a back-and-forth game, but when it's a result of missing the strike zone, it gets grating, especially by the ninth hour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingPK 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 Looks like the Orioles bullpen is doing everything in their power to make this last series the most meaningless Sox/Yankees series in a long time. Why this isn't at Yankee Stadium I'll never understand (if only because Boston was their first opponent at that place when it opened). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 Honestly, how many situations like this does Howry have to provide to prove he doesn't belong on the postseason roster? It's a meaningless game for them, but Howry is TOAST. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devo 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 The game would be over already if it wasn't for his error. He's a second baseman. Considering that his defense out there has been adequate, I'm willing to let the occasional error slide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smartly Pretty 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2008 I also think Mussina belongs in the Hall. A while ago I heard someone suggest that Moose is the best free agent signing of all time. Now, I think that title probably belongs to another Yankee, whose first name is Alex, but if you're talking about productivity with the team they signed with then that might not be a dumb thing to say.

I'm sure there are others that were even better signings, but Greg Maddux with the Braves was a better free agent signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
