<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on The New York Mets Cannot Be Stopped By Man Nor Beast]]> @Tyrone Slothrop: I remember him looking good in a start against the Mets last year. But he's one of those guys you watch and wonder how he gets people out.

I have no idea of his fly-ball-to-ground-ball ratio. I have a feeling he's more of a ground-ball pitcher, which would be another asset at CBP, since pretty much any ball in the air there has a better than 50% chance of landing in the seats.

The most annoying thing about watching games at CBP is seeing balls that would go for routine fly outs virtually everywhere else, and seeing them plunk into the very first row for cheap homers.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on The New York Mets Cannot Be Stopped By Man Nor Beast]]> @OchentaYcinco: The Mets were never as bad as they looked earlier this year. And they're probably not quite as good as they look now. But how they've played lately--particularly pitching wise--is closer to their abilities than how they played in April and May.

Also of note: of the 26 games left against division rivals (let's be nice and count Atlanta), 15 of those games are at home. Only two of those away games will be in Philly, and only three are in Atlanta, where they never play well.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on The New York Mets Cannot Be Stopped By Man Nor Beast]]> @Tyrone Slothrop: Blanton's biggest asset is that he's an innings eater. As mediocre as he is, the Phils didn't have anyone nearly as reliable as him other than Hamels. At the very least, he'll relieve some pressure on the bullpen.

On the downside, he gives up a lot of hits and doesn't strike out many, two things that won't translate too well at CBP.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on MLB All-Star Game Live Blog]]> Now it's time for K-Rod to give up a single, strike someone out, walk the next batter, get a weak pop out, walk another guy, and then strike out the last batter and celebrate like he just conquered death.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on MLB All-Star Game Live Blog]]> @RowdyRoddyPeeper: I thought Nathan was from Pine Bush, in Orange County. I grew up not too far from there, and the local paper would print his stats along with other major leaguers from nearby. Which, if I recall, included Matt Morris and nobody else.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on MLB All-Star Game Live Blog]]> Francona, if Duchsherer was feeling a little sick, why ask him to pitch at all? It's not like you don't have 12 other guys who can handle 1 inning for you.

<![CDATA[shea_guevara commented on MLB All-Star Game Live Blog]]> @StevePerryPsychOut: My question is, how does Jeter have any defensive rep left? Because he can't field for shit anymore.

Except when he does his triple lutz-spin throw to first, which makes ESPN's collective panties moist.
