Playing 500 ball

nymetsbaseball — Sat, 29 May 2010 22:49:18 +0000

The 2010 season for The New York Mets so far has been streaky.

Mets are now a game above .500 after last night’s loss to The Brewers ( 1st of 3 game series). Mets lose against The Brewers after sweeping The Phillies shutting them out 3 games and just before that winning 2 out of 3 against The Yankees.

If The Mets don’t win this game series against The Brewers ( team playing .417 ball ) it will make fans wonder what direction The Mets will take.

Jason Bay adds power

NY Mets and Jason Bay agree to 4 year deal at $66 million

“It’s a great situation,” Bay said. “You’ve got a great group of hitters, you’ve got arguably the best pitcher in baseball. What’s not to like?”

Jason Bay adds power to the lineup hitting 30 or more HRs and 100 or more RBIs in 4 out of the last 5 seasons.

NY Mets look forward toward 2010

nymetsbaseball — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 03:12:01 +0000

NY Mets ended the 2009 season Oct. 3rd sweeping The Houston Astros.

Looking forward toward a healthier more powerful Mets lineup (Murphy led the team in homers in 2009 season with 12) for 2010., Mets will also have to be concerned with the rotation ; with the exception of Santana (13 wins 9 losses and a 3.13 era) everyone underachieved.

This is a season that many Met fans will want to forget but still will have a hard time in doing so. Just about nothing went right for The NY Mets.

Blame management if you want, but under the circumstances, probably no MLB team would have done any better .

Pelfrey looking forward toward next year

Mets could not put it together as they lose to Braves.

Pitcher Mike Pellfrey dealing with a losing season (10-12) did not quite have his sinker working in today’s game against Atlanta.

“I definitely need a break, a chance to clear my head and come back next year ready to go,” Pelfrey said. “I think any way you look at it, I’ve had a bad year.”

What a way to lose

nymetsbaseball — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 09:10:52 +0000

An unassisted triple play ends the game at citi field Sunday August 23, 2009.

The unassisted triple play is one of the rarest feats in MLB and the only other time it actually ended a game was back in 1927.

How did it happen?

Eric Bruntlett caught Jeff Francoeur’s line drive, then, Bruntlett stepped on second base which doubled off Luis Castillo; since Daniel Murphy was running on the pitch going to second base, he was right at Bruntlett to be tagged. Unbelievable.

There are now 15 unassisted triple plays in the history of MLB.

Out of all plays can the unassisted triple play actually be considered the rarest occurence in MLB?
