torridjoe 48 Posted June 14, 2006 Five of the first six, 7 of the first ten. Gotten Papi twice. I think he has his stuff. Who replaced my usual mediocre Wang with one that can pitch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,433 Posted June 14, 2006 I was anticipating this pitcher's duel tonight. It has lived up to its billing. A nice vodka and lemonade in front of the TV and I have to admit that I am enjoying a pitching clinic, which is not common and not like me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schill is pitching pretty well, but the Twins hitters suck ass except for Mauer. Santana, except for two hitters where he took some kind of power nap, has been mystifying against one of the top 2 or 3 offenses in the majors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,433 Posted June 14, 2006 How about 11 in 5 innings? He has stuff tonight. The Sox don't do well against lefties, but this is ridiculous. How soon before redtodd jumps onto the field and tackles Santana? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drobeski 3,061 Posted June 14, 2006 the only bright side to this masterful performance by Santana is having him on my fantasy team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

torridjoe 48 Posted June 14, 2006 No doubt. Santana got his 1000th K. That's pretty damn good for 27. If he were to become a horse like Clemens or Unit or Schilling, and put in another 13-14 years, he'd threaten the top 5 all time. Edit--he'd have a shot at best lefty ever, actually.

Santana is good but let's not get ahead of ourselves. Heck, when all is said and done he may not be the best lefty on his own team (watch out for Francisco Liriano).

Certainly true. He's been brought along the right way, though, and has been very durable so far in his career. Power guys last longer, and lefty power guys longer than that. Anything can happen, but at this point he's on cruise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got Santana in a dynasty league, and Liriano in a keeper league, so I'm definitely enjoying their pitching as of late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted June 14, 2006 THE CAPTAIN!!! I've seen you post a lot more about the Yankees than the Mets. Just saying. I'm watching the Mets beat up on Phili 9-4 in the bottom of the 7th. Trust me I'm a Mets fan. With the Yankees always being on tv it's almost imposible not to watch them. After the Yankees play their games their Yes network shows the same game 2 or 3 more times. It's called Yankees encore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was only able to watch parts of the 8th and 9th inning. I did see Mariano strike out the last batter to end the game. And I did see A.Rod's last at bat. He struck out and the fans once again booed him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

p.man 7 Posted June 14, 2006 It's the bottom of the 8th and the Mets still lead 9-4. If they win they'll hold a 7 1/2 game lead over the Phillies. The Braves are already 10 games back. I love seeing that. Phili does have 2nd and 3rd with only 1 out. Hr!!! It's now 9-7. So much for beating up on them. They still have a 2 run lead. Wagner is getting ready.

p.man 7 Posted June 14, 2006 Wagner came in and walked the 1st guy and was 3-0 to the next but managed to strike him out. But the runner on 1st was running and he was thrown out at 2nd to end the inning. We go to the 9th. Oh, The Braves lost again tonight. This could be a great night for the Mets.

joneo 562 Posted June 14, 2006 WOW. Did you see that throw down to second by Mauer? I know he didn't get the guy but it doesn't get any better than that throw. He's money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p.man 7 Posted June 14, 2006 What a play by David Wright!!! The Phillies had a man on 1st and Pat Burrell slammed a ball down the 3rd base line. It would have been 2nd and 3rd with nobody out but David Wright made a diving play to his right and snaged the ball and the Mets were still able to turn the double play. As it turns out the next batter singled and that would have tied the game up. The Mets Win It! Billy Wagner gets the save and the Mets take a 7 1/2 game lead over the Phillies. This was their 6th straight win too. Alright! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
