Ryan Church? Good Riddence

July 11th, 2009

What a shocker - the Mets got shut out AGAIN. This team is just pathetic right now.

They’re so bad in fact that BMF was thankful to see Omar made a trade, ANY trade, to save us from discussing the miserable Mutts for at least one day.

In all honesty I won’t miss Ryan Church. Sure Jeff Francoeur pretty much sucks but he plays every day, brings gold glove D and actually delivered on his potential a couple of years ago.

Church on the other hand has never lived up to his hype. I mean the guy has 2 HR’s this year. TWO! It’s JULY!!!

My guess is this will be an unpopular trade because folks will be dissapointed we didn’t land Dunn or Carlos Lee but we needed something to shake things up.

Plus BMF is a big believer in the Curse that looms over Church’s head and career. Don’t get me wrong I have nothing against him personally it’s just that somehow, someway every season fails to pan out for this guy and I’m sick of waiting.

So let’s take our chances with “Frenchy” and maybe getting him out of the hometown spotlight will help him kick start his once promising career.

Hey, we can’t get any worse than we are right now.

Reds in Town

July 10th, 2009

BMF predicts a sweep here… By US!

Game Thread…

No Shame In Series Loss

July 10th, 2009

Despite the frustration of getting our asses kicked in by the Dodgers in their first trip to Ebbets Field2K, BMF refuses to hang my head over this one.

Look, the Dodgers are pretty much the best team in baseball and they beat us 2 games to 1 while we played with 1 hand tied behind our back. Big Deal. Anything more than that would’ve been an upset.



Instead of sweating the last 2 losses I’m looking forward to this weekend’s 3 games vs the Reds because I think this is an entirely winnable series even in our depleted state. In fact, call me crazy but I have a hunch we’re gonna sweep the lowly Reds.

I’m not holding my breath… I’m just saying…

If you’re looking for good news from yesterday’s game David Wright is now officially hitting again with another 2 hit performance. Also encouraging to see the pair of hits from Sheff who’s avg now sits at .282. I agree with Bobby Ojeda who said he liked seeing Sheff get run late in the game for arguing a called strike 3 because he didn’t “roll over” despite a seemingly insurmountable deficit.

Gotta hand it to Sheff the guy has brought some cojones with him to this team.

The bad news was undoubtedly Livan 8R, 11H, 4BB, 2K in 4 IP and Redding 3R, 6H, 1BB, 2K in 2IP. Ugly, ugly stuff right there.

***

The embedded video has nothing to do with baseball or the Mets but it’s a cause BMF can get behind. I’d hate to see Coney Island ruined by developers, which is dangerously close to happening so I’m trying to do my part to spread awareness.

Take 4 minutes if you can and watch the video. It’s well done and very insightful.

DON’T KILL CONEY ISLAND!!!

NY v LA Rubba Game

July 9th, 2009

This would be a very big win if the Mets can pull it off…

Game thread…

Holy Crap the Mets Won!!!

July 9th, 2009

Just when you’re ready to pack it in for the season the Mets actually win a game.

BMF was relieved just to see them score a run and snap what felt like an 11 game scoreless streak but I was down right giddy when K-Rod raised his arms in victory.

.Not only did they win but incredibly Oliver Perez recorded the W!

There was definitely some “Bad Ollie” as the wild lefty walked 7 batters and needed 108 pitches to get thru 5 but he did manage to wriggle off the hook just in time to avert disaster.

(Meanwhile maybe BMF should start a sports book since I placed the over/under for Perez at 6 walks and 4.2 innings and he delivered 7 and 5 - shoulda taken the over with myself!)

But before we get all giddy about Perez let’s keep it in perspective. While it was encouraging to see anything other than a total catastrophe his line was actually pretty discouraging.

2 walks and a single for a run in the 1st – 3 straight walks to load ‘em up in the 3rd – 2 hits for a run in the 4th and 2 more free passes in the 5th.

Basically he got away with it this time but you can’t win in the big leagues walking more than a batter an inning. BMF will reserve judgment until Perez’s next start, but I will say that at least I have some hope restored in a player I once loved.

The real good news was the bats finally awoke. Murphy, Wright and Reed had 2 hits apiece to lead a Met offensive “onslaught” of 9 hits and 5 runs! Woo-Hoo we’re like a regular murders row all of a sudden!

.Obtw my man Danny Boy Murphy made the Met PLAY OF THE YEAR last nite!!!

If you missed it Murph, playing first, broke towards the line on a hot shot off Mark Loretta’s bat. When the ball hit the bag it kicked back towards the infield and was slowly rolling in the dirt. Murphy then stutter-stepped his way into reversing course, scampered to the ball, grabbed it with his bare hand and instantly flipped behind his back to Parnell who did a good job of hustling over.

It was one of the greatest plays I’ve seen in a long time. I must’ve replayed it on my Tivo 20x because I couldn’t believe how quickly Murph released the ball once he grabbed it.

Bravo Daniel Murphy!!!!

Quick Hits:

• K-Rod scared us in the 9th but that’s his MO – he walks the tightrope but he’ll almost always get the job done.

• Don’t look now but Carlos Delgado was taking grounders at CityField yesterday…

• Unfortunately the Phils, Braves and Fish all won too so we’re still in 4th a full 4 games back but y’know if we can just stay close for the time being no team in baseball will be adding talent equivalent to Reyes, Beltran, Maine and Delgado… I’m just sayin’…

• Ya’ see just one win and they’ve got me starting to believe again
