I don't know if this was mentioned in the Pre-game thread
But bob howry is on the postseason roster.
halfway down
How in heaven's sake that can be? What has he done to earn that?

“I need Bob to pitch well,” Piniella said. “I had a nice little meeting and told him we need him to get nice and sharp and pitch well for us.”
Did Lou also tell Bob to grow wings?

When was the meeting THIS MORNING ?
Forgot to tell him to " get nice and sharp and pitch well for us " IN APRIL. So Lou fans please EXPLAIN this INSANITY. Does Howry really have something on Lou or is he just blinded by stats from LAST year. How do you keep a guy who has pitched bad ALL YEAR on your post season roster. I know because he is a “vet” and Lou " trusts" him. This is the kind of thing that TERRIFIES me re post season but if it terrifies our starters enough they will all go 7 plus and keep Lou from making a SINGLE bullpen decision as he will just go on automatic to Marmol and Wood in the 8th and 9th.

Plus this makes yesterday's loss meaningless
If it had kept Howry OFF the roster my 3 hours in the rain would have been well worth it but I guess he has to fall in a dumpster
and injure himself to get off the roster.

What I'd like
In my selfish little world. We win and the Mets lose tonight. Mets win tomorrow, Sheets isn’t 100% and we win again. Brewers are desperate, use CC for 130 pitches or so to get the complete game on Sunday, but they win. Mets collapse again to tie the WC again forcing the tie breaker. Mets win that in an epic extra innings game. Then they can come here for their beat down.
But that’s just me
Glad to be home after over 5 hrs on the runway at JFK...
Go Cubs…kick some butt!!
THIS IS OUR CENTURY!!
But it is a NICE runway.

he is a good ball player
he is a slob and he is the enemy
However, I will refrain from the term about weight if that offends you.
But, he will have a short career carrying that much weight long-term.

Fontenot may be the least likely looking home run hitter. He packs a big punch with his 5-foot-8 physique. Where's the power come from?
