Baseball Gods, Ghosts, First Out, Last Out

- Good job by the Yankees having Mariano Rivera throw out the ceremonial first pitch last night. It was only fitting that he got the opportunity to pick up save number 501 later in the night. I wonder if this has ever happened before. - The baseball gods have been messing with the Mets since ...

“LET’S LOCK THE DOOR AND THROW AWAY THE KEY”
Kranepool Society :: A New York Mets Blog — ... that was delayed 1 hour due to daily rain event here in NYC, but before the game I was a guest on Mike Silva’ NY Baseball Digest radio program, where Mike and I discussed the state of the Mets and what direction we felt this team should take. We both agreed that Mets fans have to relax a bit with their yelping for Omar Minaya to make a knee jerk trade as it’s not about trading, in fact this would be the worst time to make a deal of top prospects for a D-list of players that some fans think will lift this team.
