Baseball thread No. 8 - play nice

I wonder if benching him for a few more days might get him to change his mind. Kind of the old "You can stay if you want, you just won't play. Dellucci's the new left-fielder." Might be what's going on.

 

They're showing Mets BP on TBS.

Wait, why is Horacio Ramirez throwing it?

 

Actually, Detroit is 7-2 against Minnesota with a 2.61 ERA. Minnesota's ERA is 7.20 against Detroit in the same nine games.

 

Not to be outdone, Pedro throwing meatball after meatball ... He looks awful.

 

Pedro's got NOTHIN.

 

I love listening to Bobby Cox encourage his hitters on TBS.

It's so basic.... yet it's at the highest level.

Great miking by the station... I will miss it.

 

Those 87 mph fastballs don't look too good ...

 

My son with a line drive.

4-2 ... one out.

Martinez's hip may be a HUGE issue.

 

Carlos Lee is in the lineup as a DH tonight. Interesting that Mench isn't playing or isn't in Milwaukee.

 

Also, a pretty good pitcher's duel shaping up in Cleveland between King Felix and Sowers.

 

Better than the one at the Ted?

 

Slightly. Pedro must really be hurt, I guess this answers the Mets-Marlins thread question.
