Rey-YES

...who goes?

Ambres and Anderson H will be gone as soon as Easley and Alou return tomorrow night.

Someone else would have to go to NO for a minimum of 10 days, or be DFAd/released. Is it worth it for 1 start?

I'd take my chances that Sele can give us 5-6 IP with 2-3 R, which should be competitive vs the Bats.

But if it's Pelfrey, who goes? My guess would be Alomar, but IMO it's not worth losing him just because of 1 start.

GET THE PIECE OF CRAP McGimpy OFF MY TEAM NOW!!!!!

The McGimpy does most things upside down: eats, sleeps (an average of 23 hours per day), mates, and gives birth. Because of the McGimpy's upside down life, many of the McGimpy's internal organs (liver, stomach, spleen, pancreas) are in different positions from other mammals. McGimpy sometimes lets out a cry or hissing sound.

During the rare times the McGimpy goes down to the ground (such as to change trees for food), it moves very slowly.

If Pelfrey pitches Saturday every middle relievers job is safe.

Beat him once...shame on you
Beat him twice...shame on him
Beat him three times...shame on...the defense
Beat him four times...shame on...the noffense
Beat him five times...shame on.........the wind?
Beat him six times...shame on...the umpires
Beat him seven times...shame on...the conspirators, S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and the LOD
But beat him eight times??? Ohhhh you don't wanna know.

Actually after the first two, I was just making things up.

Throw a ball, get someone out.

Rinse and repeat for the next 4-8 innings.

Much like Anthony Young.... He's due...

As for who goes....Alomar makes the most sense. I mean what would we do without Castro's 0-5 PHing...plus lord knows both he and Lo Duca are injury prone wusses who can't possibly be used in ordinary PHing situations without a 400 year old 3rd stringer who's slowly being covered in mold waiting on the bench.

Can't they just leave this poor bastard down in the minors? Geez just have Sele make a spot start or callup Brian Lawrence.

Rey-YES

OK, let's say it's Alomar. Since that shortens the bench, Pelfrey goes down after the start and we bring up......................Dave's Fave (he who shall not be named)?

Newhan has been doin the shuttle thing for 3 years now...he should be used to it. He's already on the 40 man too. Or they could bring Ledee back up as well.

Rey-YES

But Ledee is not on the 40, which could create another problem. Is all this roster-tweaking really worth it for one start, when Sele could probably do just as well?

And why did you mention the other guy's name?

I have to agree with you. Sele looked ok in LA bailing out Glavine this week and I would think they would give him the shot. The only thing I can think is that with seven games in six days Willie and Omar are planning to need Sele out of the pen at some point and thus want to bring someone else up. I think as many have said they send down Alomar.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but today is a day off, so why is another starter needed? Next Monday is another day off as well, so it's not like it would even be a problem the rest of the week. ESPN even has this figured out on their schedule, and they're idiots...

Edit: In fact the Mets don't play a Monday game until August 27. Rosters should expand by the time a need for a sixth starter arises again, if it does...
