    <description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Pedro Martinez-&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;He made his spring debut with 4 shutout innings. He average 1 K an inning with 4 total.&amp;nbsp; With a total of 58 pitches he was recorded hitting 91 MPH, but he average in the upper 80&#39;s.&lt;a href=&quot;http://mlbfansite.com/images/walls/martinez.jpg&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:_w6HiM6OAjy1NM:http://mlbfansite.com/images/walls/martinez.jpg&quot; height=&quot;86&quot; width=&quot;114&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt; With today&#39;s performance he should be on track to pitch April 2nd, the second game of the season.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Johan Santana- &lt;/span&gt;Johan also averaged a strikeout an inning on Saturday with a total of five, but he gave up 4 runs--3 earned-- against the much disliked Cardinals.&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nydailynews.com/img/2008/03/11/alg_santana.jpg&quot; target=&quot;_top&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:YUDMmZalrcOXrM:http://www.nydailynews.com/img/2008/03/11/alg_santana.jpg&quot; height=&quot;67&quot; width=&quot;127&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Although his ERA is up to 4.50 he has a K/BB ratio of 14/2 in a total of 14 innings.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Marlon Anderson- &lt;/span&gt;In his first start since his collision with right fielder, Ryan Church, Anderson went 3-4 against the Tigers today.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Carlos Delgado- &lt;/span&gt;WOW! Carlos has been having such bad luck since the last game of the season when he got hit on the wrist with a pitch and broke it {his wrist}. Than earlier in spring training he got injured again. When he came back he was 0-10 with 5 K&#39;s. Than he has to good AB&#39;s with nice doubles in both of them. Than when he was standing on third, teammate, Brady Clark&#39;s bat broke and the shard of the bat hit Delgado on the elbow. Delgado needed 4 stiches to close the wound.&lt;br&gt;&lt;table border=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;5&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding: 0pt 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_top&quot; id=&quot;logo&quot; href=&quot;http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en&quot; title=&quot;Go to Google Home&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt; &lt;img src=&quot;file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/HENNAA%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/HENNAA%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;&gt;&lt;table border=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;5&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot;&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td valign=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;padding: 0pt 5px;&quot;&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_top&quot; id=&quot;logo&quot; href=&quot;http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en&quot; title=&quot;Go to Google Home&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/HENNAA%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;&gt;</description>

    <description>Instead of playing in yesterday&#39;s game &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Luis Castillo&lt;/span&gt; says he intends to play in Saturday&#39;s game. &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Marlon Anderson&lt;/span&gt; is still
sidelined with chest pain. He received his injury during a collision&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:b7gFdvKO_U9kDM:http://loraincounty.redcross.org/images/Red%2520Cross%2520Logo%25201.jpg&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; hspace=&quot;7&quot; vspace=&quot;7&quot;&gt;
with Right Fielder, Ryan Church, who has played since he was sidelined
with a concussion.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
He injured his ankle sliding into second base and now &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Ruben Gotay&lt;/span&gt; did light running, but limping he was while doing so.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And center fielder, &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Carlos Beltran&lt;/span&gt;, is expected to play this weekend. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;I am back for the FINAL SEASON AT SHEA! LETS GO METS!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

    <description>We just added a few more widgets. On the top right hand corner we added a link to listen to WFAN live. On the right hand side we added a widget of&amp;nbsp; iMets under the metsblog widget. The iMets widget takes over the Recent Articles Component. And on the right hand side under the Player&#39;s news we added a widget of the MLB standings. We will continue to add widgets. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;iMets&lt;br&gt;</description>

    <description>**Posted By Sal**&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It Finally happened!&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt; Rick Down&lt;/span&gt; was fired by the Mets! &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Rickey Henderson &lt;/span&gt;was hired to replace &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Down&lt;/span&gt; on the coaching staff. It was not said what &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Rickey&lt;/span&gt; would coach. The Mets are debating between &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Rickey&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;HoJo&lt;/span&gt; to decide who will take over as the batting coach and who will be the first base coach. Stay tuned we will keep you posted.&amp;nbsp;  &lt;br&gt;</description>

    <title>Midterm Report Cards</title>
    <link>http://imets.metsblog.com/blog/_archives/2007/7/9/3081593.html</link>

    <description>&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;**Posted by Allan** &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;So here we are, staggering into the All-Star break somehow clinging onto first place. So many unexpected things have happened over the course of this season, so here are my midterm report card grades: &lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;(Note: I&#39;m not gonna mention the individual problems with RISP because everyone on this team stinks at it)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline; font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;The Opening Day Lineup:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Paul Lo Duca:&lt;/span&gt; (B) Paulie had a very nice beginning of the season, batting over 300 for most of the year, but when the mets as a team started playing poorly, so did Duke. His avg. is down to around 280 but he is one of the most durable catchers in the MLB . His D is up, and hes been a tremendous leader. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Carlos Delgado:&lt;/span&gt; (D+) What can we say about Delgado, besides that hes been awful. A batting avg around 240, hes been playing much better as of late. His power has been on and off all season, and his lack of consistency getting on base had me questioning is he was done. His D has been atrocious and he cant buy a hit with a runner on 3rd and 1 out. All in all, an extremely disappointing 1st half for Deli. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Jose Valentine:&lt;/span&gt; (D) Jose had his dream rejuvenation year last year, but that was last year. Hes been slumping all year, even before he went down with the injury. His D has been much worse then last year due to his knee brace or whatever it is. His job many be in jeopardy with 2 guys waiting in line. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Jose Reyes:&lt;/span&gt; (A) Theres not much negativity going on in Jose&#39;s world, as hes been a model of consistence on a very inconsistent team. He is stealing on a regular basis and has kept his batting avg up all year long. His D has also been spectacular as well as his walks. Keep it up Jose! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Davis Wright: &lt;/span&gt;(B) David started off the year awfully alongside Delgado, the difference is, hes broken out and consistently hit since that April. He brought his avg up to a nice 28oish, and hes been a great leader in the clubhouse. However, he needs to spend less time with his extra curricular activities and more time in the batting cages. David was moved up to the 4 spot and will be very important going forward. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Shawn Green:&lt;/span&gt; (B-) Shawn has been a nice surprise for mets fans this season. He is hitting a respectable 270 and is a nice veteran presence in the clubhouse. His D has been a little better this year and he is showing he isnt as slow as we thought he was on the base paths. Not much else you can say about Shawn, except that he should never shave his head ever again! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Carlos Beltran: &lt;/span&gt;(C+) Beltran is hitting the same 270 as Green, but we expect more from the top vote-getter in the NL. His lack of veteran leadership has been well documented, but he has been pretty solid all around. As usual, his D has been spectacular and he is using his speed a little more with Wright instead of Delgado batting behind him. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Moises Alou: &lt;/span&gt;(MED excuse) No this is not a typo, Moises Alou is a New York Met. I cant really give him a grade since he hasnt played since Julio Franco pulled a fastball. When he has been in there, hes been great, batting over 315. Obviously, he doesnt move in left feild, but everyone expected that when we got him. Hopefully, he wont get lost on the way to shea when hes ready to come back. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;The Starters: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tom Glavine: &lt;/span&gt;(B) Known for his consistency, he has been none of that this year. When hes on, hes lights out, as hes shown he can be last year. He has been a victim of a lack of run support and some spotty D behind him. Lets try to get 300 so we can actually focus on the mets as a team, Tommy. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;John Maine:&lt;/span&gt; (A+) As everyone knows, the Maine event deserves to be in the midsummer classic. Hes been great all year, picking up right where he left off during last year&#39;s playoffs. Hopefully, we will see him in a mets uni for many years to come.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Oliver Perez:&lt;/span&gt; (A-) Ollie has been great this year, especially in clutch situations. His 3 wins Vs. Atlanta and his win Vs. the Yankees have made him a instant fan favorite. He has had a couple of shoddy starts, but hes been fairly consistent throughout the season. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Orlando Hernandez:&lt;/span&gt; (B) A little more inconsistent then the rest of them, El Duque has looked spectacular many times during the year. His stuff has looks extremely nasty, and if he controls it, hes will be unhittable. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Jorge Sosa:&lt;/span&gt; (B+) Me and Sal had a argument about wheter this was a good pickup, and so far, I have been completly right! Jorge shocked the world when he came up and actually retired batters. With a couple of bad starts sprayed in, Jorge had been spectacular as a 5th starter. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Relievers:&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Aaron Sele: &lt;/span&gt;(C-) While not the automatic bandage that Darran Oliver was, Aaron has pitched adequately in his long man role. Like the starters, Aaron has been inconsistent from appearance to appearance.&amp;nbsp; However, he looked very strong in the last couple&amp;nbsp; of outings while trying to save his job. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Scott Schoenweis: &lt;/span&gt;(D-) Why oh why did we give this man a big 3 year contract? While looking great away from his &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;adoring &lt;/span&gt;fans at Shea, he has been awful in high pressure situations in the numerous chances that have presented themselves to him. Maybe the first step in the right direction would be changing to an actual Major league number! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Joe Smith: &lt;/span&gt;(B) Starting the year out of this world, Smith had quickly been pulled back down. Chad Brad&#39;s replacement shows tremendous potential, as long as the bases arent loaded. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Pedro Feliciano:&lt;/span&gt; (A+) There isnt much to complain about Pedro, as hes been near perfect all year long. He will see his role change as he continues to dominate. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Guillermo Mota:&lt;/span&gt; (D+) Guillermoid has been everything he was last year and a Indian. Many speculate that his success last year was due to those &#39;riods, so I dont know what we will see out of him in the 2nd half. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Aaron Heilman: &lt;/span&gt;(C+) This was the hardest player to judge, as he has pitched better than given credit for. Hes given up way to many home runs, and he has to watch his back as Feliciano might be stealing his 8th inning spot.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Billy Wagner:&lt;/span&gt; (A+) Billy has been spectacular this season, blowing just one save all year.

    <description>**Posted By Sal**&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;  &lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; In case you can&#39;t remember, &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Paul Lo Duca&lt;/span&gt;, received a two game suspension for is tirade on the field during the game against the Oakland A&#39;s. &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lo Duca &lt;/span&gt;was upset about two called strikes on him by &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Marvin Hudson&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lo Duca&lt;/span&gt; argued and argued some more. Finally &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Hudson&lt;/span&gt; threw &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lo Duca&lt;/span&gt; out of the game. &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lo Duca&lt;/span&gt; than argued more and than threw all of his equipment onto the field. He received a 2 game suspension, but appealed it. Now the hearing will be held Friday. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Jason Vargas&lt;/span&gt; was sent down to AAA New Orleans. &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Sandy Alomar Jr.&lt;/span&gt; was called up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br style=&quot;font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;..Updated at 5:30 PM..&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just heard on SNY &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Daily News Live!&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Chris Cotter&lt;/span&gt; said that &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Paul Lo Duca&lt;/span&gt; will serve the 2 game suspension. &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;Lo Duca &lt;/span&gt;will sit out tonight and tomorrow. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

    <description>** Posted By Sal **&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Tonight at 7:35 PM it was announced The Mets VS. Cardinals Game for 6-28-07 was PPD due to rain. No make-up date has been announced. Due to no more games this season they will have to find a date that the Mets and Cardinals are off. Tickets for tonights game will probably be used for admission for the make-up game. (The reason for the probably is because I do not work in the front office so I can&#39;t make any decisions).&lt;br&gt;</description>

(or maybe just singing it.) Everybody around me liked it. The Cardinal fans were also singing along. I do not see the big problem with it. So the Red Sox use it. Yippee. Every other team with a mascot stole the idea of a mascot from the Mets. Mr. Met was the first mascot in MLB history. Is anyone complaining about that? I don&#39;t hear any body complaining about the braves mascot, Homer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;width: 172px; height: 224px;&quot; src=&quot;http://imets.metsblog.com/_photos/Hom.sized.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;width: 195px; height: 221px;&quot; src=&quot;http://imets.metsblog.com/_photos/mrmet2.sized.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);&quot;&gt; I Think people are making a big deal out of nothing. It&#39;s just like making a big deal about YANKEES SUCK! chants. Let them play Sweet Caroline. People like it.&amp;nbsp; Who Cares! Just Enjoy The Game!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

Chapter Celebrate The 3rd Annual Alzheimer&#39;s
Awareness Day At Shea Stadium&lt;/strong&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On Tuesday, June 26, 2007 at 7:10 p.m., baseball fans and members of
the Alzheimer&#39;s community united in the battle against Alzheimer&#39;s
disease as The New York Mets host the 3rd Annual Alzheimer&#39;s Awareness
Day at Shea Stadium. The Mets donated a portion of each ticket to
the Alzheimer&#39;s Association.

&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A pre-game ceremony with special recognition for the
Alzheimer&#39;s community will preceded the game against the defending World
Series Champions, St. Louis Cardinals.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic;&quot;&gt;I am very sorry I didn&#39;t mention this before the game yesterday. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
