the biggest worry of the mets was his k/bb ratio. mre than 3:1. johan deal still not done. he wants a 6 yr 150 mill dollar deal. he will get 130+ minimum. in another ridiculous move, the orioles are trading best lefty not named johan, erik bedard to the mariners for adam not pacman jones, centerfielder. stupid angelos reportedly not paying a mere 100 mill for 7 years. an absolute steal. 13-5, 182 IP, 141 hits, 221 KS, 3.16 era and 1.09 whip in the AL. hes only 28.
Carlos Gomez '07 minors: .275 with .355 OBP Coco Crisp '07 majors: .268 with .330 OBP -plus Crisp's power numbers have decreased significantly over the last 2 years.
Mainly because his 2 decent HR seasons in Cleveland were a mirage. The ball flies out ot the Jake (or whatever they call it now) much better than it does Fenway. My bad on the stats. I think I looked up the wrong Gomez or something. Edit: Figured it out. I clicked Chris Gomez (he's listed right below Carlos on Baseball-Reference.com)
Hey I was thinking that this magnanimous move by the Mets should allow Martin to start posting on here again. I think this trumps the late season collapse of '07. Everyone on board with this idea? Let's all say it. Martin, you are exonerated. You can come back now.
gomez got a homer then a triple then a double thru 6 innings currently. hes getting a couple more at-bats for the single and the cycle. regarding Santana, what if I told you he was 6-0 with a 2.02 era and a .88 whip with 38ks and only 9 walks in 49 innings? what if I then told you that was ervin santana. :grin::grin:
he had one more at-bat just now and singled. and the cycle. last time a twinkie accompished such a feat was mr puckett in 1986: All Twins with the honor: Kirby Puckett, 08-01-1986 Gary Ward, 09-18-1980 Mike Cubbage, 07-27-1978 Lyman Bostock, 07-24-1976 Larry Hisle, 06-04-1976 Cesar Tovar, 09-19-1972 Rod Carew, 05-20-1970 Mickey Vernon, 05-19-1946 Joe Cronin, 09-02-1929 Goose Goslin, 08-28-1924 Otis Clymer, 10-02-1908 will have to check with elias sports bureau to see how many have accomplished it in reverse order. he led off the game with the homer, tripled in the 5th, doubled in the 6th and singled in the 9th. pretty odd.
