... It seems the Mets had a closed door meeting which is nice that something is going on outside of the eye of the media, but we also have not heard about many of these and one has to wonder if they have not been happening, why not? ...

F.U. to Mets: Beat Brandon Webb
Published 6/11/2008 by Greg at Faith and Fear in Flushing
... 1 earned run. Brandon Webb's earned run average in those four Shea outings: 0.31 This year overall, Webb is 11-2, toting a 2.58 ERA and wielding a WHIP of barely more than 1. Alou isn't available (the sun shifted imperceptibly this afternoon, requiring Moises to undergo an MRI). Chris Aguila is apparently up, Abraham Nuñez undeniably down. The Mets are riding 'round in a hole in the ground. Want us to believe you're worth believing in tomorrow? Beat Brandon Webb or at least his team tonight. Cordially, ...

Mets Walk it off

tj1182 posted 6/12/2008 from magicmets.com

What a performance from "BIG PELF" Mike Pelfrey. It was sheer brilliance. Shutting down the ...
