Pete pitched again today.

Quote :

"PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. - Pedro Martinez pitched three perfect innings in his second rehabilitation start Tuesday before allowing three runs in the fourth. Martinez, who has been working his way back from right shoulder surgery in October, threw 60 pitches for the New York Mets’ Rookie-level Gulf Coast League team and then another 20 fastballs in the bullpen. “I like this outing a lot more than the other one,” Martinez said. “I am more in command, and I actually felt like I pitched a little bit, making pitches where I wanted to, and overall it was a jump ahead. It was a great improvement.”"

Word is he feels great and was hitting 91-92 on the gun. Two more rehab starts and his first start should come in ATL...

8/14/2007 4:47:05 PM

If Pedro only gets two more rehab starts and is actually pitching against ATL in two weeks, then so be it. I bet the Braves light his ass up because he will not be ready for MLB hitters.

The Mets are rushing him back and I think they'll regret not bringing him along slower. They're going to win the East anyway because neither the Braves nor Phils has enough pitching to overtake the Mets. They should just get Pedro ready for the playoffs.

8/14/2007 5:09:23 PM

Actually, he is a bit behind schedule. The early projections had him pitching by Aug 15 in the bigs. They delayed his rehab starts a bit. The plan was always 4-5 rehab and then 5-6 ML starts before October, should they make it.

8/14/2007 6:06:49 PM

^ I thought for a surgery like the one he had, the typical recover for a pticher was 1+ years. Either way I don't think the Mets really need him other than as a 5th starter. Their front four is better than the Braves or Phils. If he does come back and is even 75% of what he used to be, then the Mets should cruise to the World Series.

8/14/2007 6:23:10 PM

Watch BBTN if you want to see a gruesome injury. Easley just detached his foot from his leg... Yuck.

8/18/2007 8:56:13 PM

Wtf Padres... the worst hitting team in baseball just went apeshit all series long... blown save for Wagner and now no way we get to Hoffman again.

[Edited on August 23, 2007 at 10:10 PM. Reason : ill be damned.. they did it agian!]

8/23/2007 10:03:09 PM

Damn, that game was shitty last night. A David Wells bunt single to start a scoring rally?

4 game series against the Phils starting today. 6 games ahead and Pedro's back soon.

8/27/2007 2:08:31 PM

Division race is over with. gg to the mets for playing well once they got healthy. I still think they will flame out in the playoffs, but atleast they will make it unlike the Braves

8/27/2007 7:04:44 PM

It's not over. Well, for the Braves it probably is but the Phils are about to be 5 out and some fucking no name Durbin is pitching a hell of a game.. of course games in that Little League park in Philly shouldnt even count.

8/27/2007 9:03:06 PM

How fucking shitty was that luck?

Anyway, Humber should be getting his first major league start Saturday against ATL. He is one of the top pitchers of the PCL and is a former #3 overall pick out of Rice. Can't wait to see his curve...

8/29/2007 4:05:08 PM

PEDRO!

I'm posting to myself at this point since the Bravos fans know they are disposed of already...

[Edited on September 3, 2007 at 1:16 PM. Reason : it was Pelfrey, and he was dealing.]

WHY THE FUCK CAN WE NOT BEAT THE GOD DAMN FUCKING PHILLIES. THEY BLOW ASS AGAINST EVERYONE ELSE IN THE LEAGUE BUT CANNOT DO ANYFUCKINGTHING WRONG AGAINST THE METS.

I mean the division race is over but it's fucking god damn annoying watching the wifebeater on the mound closing out win after win.. it's not even like they are blowing us out.

9/15/2007 4:56:17 PM

^ dude calm down. Your team is in the playoffs. You sound like me complaining about the shithole Braves.

9/15/2007 7:07:23 PM

Any word on the playoff rotation? It will be really interesting to see how it turns out. Pedro's looked fantastic so far, but has only logged in 16 innings. I am sure Glavine will be a starter, but they have a lot of options for the third starter. If a remember correctly, El Duque did a pretty good job in the playoffs from the bullpen with the white sox, but he should still be up for consideration as a starter. Perez and Maine are both excellent pitchers, but both seem to be inconsistent. I'd like to see El Duque get a shot as a starter, but I have a feeling the foot injury will rule that out. So I'm guessing it will be Glavine, Martinez, and Maine. Has Randolph said anything about this yet?

9/16/2007 12:15:48 PM

My guess is Maine will be the long man unless El Duque's foot keeps him out much longer than expected.

Glavine
Pedro
El Duque
Perez

in no particular order... Sele won't be on the playoff roster and Maine is far better suited to the pen then Perez is...

9/16/2007 1:21:42 PM

Damn 6 errors today. The Phils have closed to 3.5 games. They'll collapse, but it is amazing that they play so well against the Mets. Braves are now 7.5 out - woo hoo



[Edited on September 16, 2007 at 11:50 PM. Reason : sfd]

9/16/2007 11:50:11 PM

8 earned runs Maine? And against the Nationals? 5 Straight losses, and it looks like the Phils pick up another game on them tonight (currently up in the 10th inning). It that holds up, the lead is down to 1.5 games.

9/18/2007 11:32:14 PM

are the mets ever going to win again?

9/19/2007 12:33:07 PM

wouldn't it be some shit if they lost the division AND didn't get the wild card...

boy, would that ever suck

9/19/2007 12:55:00 PM

i fail to see how that would suck.

9/19/2007 1:05:56 PM

Ineffective troll. I can't even work with that one.

Nothing else matters.

9/20/2007 2:46:20 PM

have you been to any Mets away games this season

i know you are busy and all, but since there isnt a bottom of the ninth, you should get home early

9/20/2007 9:19:14 PM

That was the most disgusting game i've ever watched. And i'm a state fan...

9/21/2007 1:56:02 AM

i'm the braves will manage to finish a half game behind the mets, just enough to get hopes up before they ultimately are eliminated

9/21/2007 8:14:25 AM

9/21/2007 8:59:47 AM

what do nym410 and david wright have in common?

they'll both be watching the playoffs from their couch

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

9/21/2007 12:19:26 PM

What sucks about this NL East chase is that the Braves will probably be the reason the Mets win the East seeing that they play the Phils while the Mets play the Marlins like 9 times in the last week.

Who the fuck is making the schedules where neither the Braves nor Phillies play the Mets in the last four series of the year and then the Red Sox and Yankees don't play either the rest of the season. Everyone basically knows which teams are going to be in the playoff chase from the start of the season.

It would be awesome to have a Phils-Mets series right now or another final weekend Red Sox-Yanks series. Instead both NY teams are playing garbage teams the rest of the way...

nah, pedro's actually looked pretty good in his first three starts

i would be worried about losing 7 of the last 10 and a sub-.500 record against the east, though

looks like the mets are doing their best to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
