Yes this has been quite the depressing season for the Mets. Everyone has been hurt.
But the good news is we may be finally getting some people back. David Wright is coming off the DL tomorrow, and Carlos Beltran who has been out since June is going to start playing some rehab games on Wed, hopefully he'll be back soon...maybe next week. Its too late to matter in regards to the playoffs or any of that, but it will be nice just to watch those guys play again.
So we have Contreras now. Is that a good thing? I don't know much about him.
Gary, glad you are in a safe area! The smoke in our valley is unbelievable, way out here! I'm sure it is just awful there.
Gosh Diane, I forgot about the valleys that must be scary to get smoke all the way over there... I'm praying for the victims, the animals and for those who are in a constant state of fear that their home will be next... Though beautiful I don't think I could live in CA... mother nature shows off too much there.. lol..
Clydegirl... Contreras is familiar for some reason... I'm off to find out..
RAZZ... you post is a perfect example of you be a true fan ! WTG
Finally a game tonight... thank goodness.. unfortunately its in Tampa *land of the cow bells* lol....
Gary, I will say that I chuckled a bit when I saw that Thome trade... yup... he'll be
r e a l.... comfy in the NL in Sept... LOL... ah.. who knows...there have been more than a few surprises this year. I hope you're back soon to fill us in...
OH MR. BILL .... where art' thou ?
Gosh, I know Diane, that's really hard to watch... I know when we aren't in contention they are the longest Septembers ever...
I can't keep track of all the NL action... good luck to everyone !
The Aaron Boone story is amazing... open heart surgery 5 months ago, back playing this week... I guess I can let my grudge go now... LOL

Rockies had a great game last night. Giambi came through with a big hit and it was great to see him out there. It seemed like all of the players were having a lot of fun last night. Well, maybe not the Mets.
Geesh... It seems like they just took a bunch of 'old' players and tossed them from a plane... wherever they landed would be their new team... I like to think I know my team, but they pinch ran this guy last night that I've never heard of... Is it me ?
and just when I figure it out.. it will be 'extended' roster time..
I'm not likin tonights game ... its tied, but we need to kick some butt.. its getting late... sorry I'm a cranky-pants tonight...
