Courtesy of Leviathan, Keith Hernandez has entered the field. The organization should keep reaching back to 1986; not only were those ex-players credibly talented, but also, those guys boast a built-in Met fan appeal. Another angle here. At least, Murphy’s job is safe, which must be a warm comforter to the Metsie-on-the-street.
The Nationals are pursuing Wang. You can say that their staff is two or three Wangs shy of pitching for a third place finish, having added Jason Marquis and having bolstered the pen with Brian Bruney. Last year, I said that the Nats would surprise a lot of people with their offense – they didn’t do that, exactly, but they did add a half-run to their per game average, and their OPS ranking improved from scraping the bottom of the NL in ’08 to 8th-highest in ’09.
Tim Lincecum’s arbitration hearing is set for this Friday, aka “The San Francisco Blizzard”.
Erik Bedard’s new contract allows $6M in performance bonuses. The Brass Ones are murmuring that the balance of power in the AL West should be monitored closely. We’ll watch it!
Enjoy the snow!

Sal, if you hit CG 2nd vs. LHP what does your 5-9 look like?
Sorry, vs. RHP…
Maybe…
Cano L
Posada S
Johnson L

Gardner/Winn L/S
doing good Sal. she was shoveling today trying to get the little lazy bastard going. looks like he’s got my prograstination genes.
I dont doubt for a second you had her out there in her galoshes clearing a path to the car so she could clean it off.
that fats bastard francesa makes ya think the phillies have won 5 outta last 10 WS. That shit franchise has won a couple times in 100 years.
NL East and WS is up for grabs.
Didnt ask what she was wearing. I was busy pushing the garage opener pulling in tonight and didnt get a great look at the job she did.
Dinner was good. Better not get leftovers tomorrow though. Will be her second day home from work and I expect something fresh.
I get the same vibe J the Dn a few yr’s ago, good call. I love Boblit the school principal, Rick the racist. I’d like to get one or two of them over here, but they’re so Redsocked out I don’t know. Actually the two guys who are sort of fair and balanced are redsox04 and rick the racist. I like Alrog, 67, cameron, Bean, and Soxrock is my favorite, he’s like the family guy.
He did the same thing when the sox were on top, Kev. Right up until the sox were 8-0 against the Yankees last year, shit, probably til it was 8-6 he was gushing and going on and on about how Theo was a genius and the sox were the “model franchise”…. How’d those penny and smoltz moves work out for em? How bout 2 day a week rocco, I was calling him that last march, he proceeded to get 150ABs and collect 38 hits. Sounds like about 2 days of work a week to me.
Leftovers are for dogs. If she puts em in front of you and you dont throw them against the wall and demand someting fresh, shame on you.
Then tell her ta clean it up, da spoiled ginny brat
I like Doc Halladay but I have turn my back on him now.
Philliesa re going down. Enough.
bobslit pisses me off, probably cuz I am just as opinionated and used to be on the attack at all times just like him.
Keep stirring the sauce, Kev, can’t blog and stir the sauce at the same time!!!
Im stirring, Im stirring.
I cant drive to hospital without my lucky hat.
( Ive fallen into goodfellas trance..tough to snap out of)
That baby in her belly is bigger than her fuckin head, even still she can still dance right? Get her to give ya a couple of fuckin steps, Kev.
HAHAHAHAHAHA
I multitask. One tab open I’m looking at breastfeeding training vids. Nice. Another tab looking for golf courses nearby that have a 19th hole.
COMING DEAR
Cano L
Posada S
Johnson L
Swisher S
Gardner/Winn L/S
Sure would be nice if Cano could hit there I like that. I wonder if they put Posada 5 Cano, Swisher, Johnson, platoon.. If they bring in a lefty that doesn’t help 8/9, although Gardner has pretty good splits against lefty’s. I don’t know you guys are better at that stuff, what ever you all think. It’ll be interesting what they do with Granderson when a lefty pitches. Granderson could be a 40/40 guy. I have a good feeling about him
golf courses? I hope you got orange balls to go with them blue ones you’re gonnna be sportin for a while.
Didnt even realize the blue orange(mets) connection til I typed that
Mr. Fiber
Sal, is your avatar a pic of Girardi?
Bedrest? They should call it Ballrest.
Boblit is the reason you want the UZR blow up in their face.
Do you even know where the jar is?
Sal, I would love nothing more than to shove a combined 40HRs/200RBI/.255BA/320Ks from beltre/scutaro/spameron right down the throats of a handful of them cats up there.
I leave you with this in depth analysis from my gangsta manager;
According to Adam Rubin of the Daily News, “Jerry Manuel says this spring’s emphasis will be on throwing strikes.”
Later. Fiber up.
WAIT
Thanks Sal.
Wright, Castillo, Posada, Vazquez, Rolen, Harang, Phillips, Byrd, Feliz, Huff, Bradley, Marquis, Victorino, Ibanez, Pedroia, Lowell, Papelbon, Inge.
Here’s another reason to keep Valentine out of the Citi-

Yeah Lev I’ve seen that Levinson name before but I couldn’t put it together. That’s a big stable of diverse players they have. I wouldn’t have guessed that in a million years.
Lev’s got that memory.
scufart-o
all comes back to diversification
I been called a lot of things but handsome ain’t one of them, it’s just out of focus enough to work
we might have to go with “beltGAY” since we already have smellbury, but I am open minded.
Bullshit! If Uncle Sals Take dont “Take Off” that kisser can put food on the table.
Scutardoro, scutardo
