Billingsley looked pretty nasty there. He’s whiffing 13 batters per nine innings, though his walk rate is very high.
New York fans being jerks when one of their players has minor struggles? I never.

Who's that?
Though, it’s true. Mets fans are very quick to boo, which is troubling and sad and reflects poorly on us as a whole.
He’s throwing in simulated games right now but all we know is that he won’t be ready by May 16th.

I’ve read he might be back in early June.

Now this is the guy with the fluke BABIP right here.

At least he’s proved that he’s clearly better than Andy “He Had His Chance And He Blew It” LaRoche.

Eric,
Andrew was being sarcastic. He loves Andy LaRoche. I only warn you so he doesn’t yell at you and then break something.

Has anyone seen the new trailer for the Dark Knight? I’ve never been more excited for a movie in my life.
Also, I recommend Iron Man. It’s entertaining.
I’m really surprised about all the love for Iron Man. I was thinking it would be worse than Hulk.

The 2003 Hulk? I still refuse to watch that movie. Or the new Hulk?
Robert Downey Jr. makes the movie, I think. He’s probably the best actor to be in any of these marvel superhero movies, and it certainly shows.

2003. I mainly remember the friend that dragged us there saying “I’m sorry” the second the credits rolled.

I remember my best friend was pumped to see it because it was a superhero movie, and I remember seeing the preview and how dumb it looked (particularly the gamma ray dogs or whatever they were). And I kept on warning him not to see it. The first thing he said after he came back to it was “You were right.”

Woo! Eat that, David Wright! The fantasy league I own you in doesn’t count batter strikeouts!

I think since Kemp and Pierre are red hot and Jones makes a lot of money Ethier gets it in the shorts.

Pierre's been getting on base
Still no power, in the bat or the arm. Ethier should be getting most of the starts, no?
It’s just that when you give 44 million to a one tool player, you end up being forced into some bad decisions.

Hopefully, another team will want him eventually.

The Padres legitimately need Juan Pierre, but we wouldn’t trade with them.
Plus there’s guy like Rajai Davis getting DFAed all the time, so that makes things harder.

If a trade is beneficial between both teams, there shouldn’t be any problem with trading with the Padres. I wish teams would stop caring so much about trading within the division.

Looking back on it, the Kuo bat flip was the only good thing to come from last year.

It’s getting to the point where I’m happy to see Andruw hit into a double play because at least he hit it hard.
Co-Author Of The Fourth Most Popular NL West Based Blog On SBN
I might have to drop him from my fantasy team if he’s still pulling this crap in June.
by Tango and Cash on May 5, 2008 9:05 PM PDT up reply actions
I
have to agree with Vin, the bats being used to today are awful, I see a broken one almost every game
Wow
with the Phillies win we are only 3 out of the division, how quickly things can change…I hope we can remain at this level of play consistently, the bats were great at home again.
a happy cinco de drinko to all.
O.A.
andruw over ethier?
can somebody please explain why andruw is still starting? over ethier no less. can’t they send him down to the minors till he “figures” his swing out?
