I would still like to see this scene(left).Delgado, as we all know, finally put a good game together yesterday. And this asshole doesn't go out for a curtain call. Shea stadium was waiting, and they probably shouldn't have, but they wanted the curtain call. But no, look out, Delgado's gonna show us fans. I guess we're not allowed to 'boo' him. I guess all that ticket money, $16M of which is going to be his this year, isn't enough from us. Now we're not allowed to criticize him either. What a prick.
The fans deserve some shit for this too. They were supposed to give him the silent treatment. Just sit on your hands. The guy hasn't produced in two years, and he gives us the same ridiculous sound bites about how he's "seeing it well", and "just need to get quicker". It's just a bunch of shitty excuses for being old and having 34 different hitches in his swing. If the guy starts putting a few good games together, I might get excited about it, until then he's still a .205/.304/.341 hitter.
FYI, .205/.304/.341 is awful.
*I think I dislike Teixeira more than Chipper at this point. Chipper creeps chicks out, and has hit alot of homeruns against the Mets, but Teixeira is a tool.
*Lose to Jair Jurrjens, then knock Hudson out after three innings and Smoltz after four. Fine with me, anyway the Metsies can take 2 of 3 from the Braves is good.
*John Maine has all but abandoned his slider. He's been using mostly changeups as his secondary pitch. The results are about the same: solid, but he still walks too many batters and throws too many pitches to go further than the 6th inning.
*Figueroa has fallen back to Earth a bit, but the guy is still throwing good innings. And he grew up a Metropolitans fan. Just keep pitching him.
