He really is. Now that he's been given a full-time opportunity he has proven to be even better than I thought he would be. Great plate discipline, good pop, and a great glove.
Ortiz is just going to swing for the fence here with the 4 run lead.

From the looks of it Braves bullpen blew up on Smoltz again, and they might be 14 out if they lose tonight. Mets won today which is good, at first they looked flat. But finally David Wright with grand slam home run, and offesne was clicking right after that. I hope we could see that type of offense throught the rest of the year. Mets have tough 13 game strech, Mets have to contine with the good offense, and good pitching and they'll be fine.

Oh Jesus Christ, Towers has been called up. Lilly was suppose to pitch on Tuesday but says his shoulder is sore and he will now pitch on Wednesday(maybe pitch if its serious than Taubenheim will go) with Towers going Tuesday. Great, I think we are going to get our asses handed to us this series as well.
Awesome match up, Towers 1 - 8, 9.00 ERA vs. Sosa 1 - 9, 5.35 ERA
Which one of these losers will finally win a game.
If Lilly can't go in this series than I seriously think we will lose it or worse be swept again, I don't trust Towers, Taubenheim and Burnett to win us this series.

First, please find an adult who can read this to you. I use a lot of complex words that you might have trouble understanding. Most ladies in your position, who rely on their looks for as long as they can be considered attractive to teens and pre-teens and trailer park boys everywhere in Anytown, USA are not very erudite as I am sure you know.
Anyway, I read your comments in a recent article regarding everything from your profound, cathartic, and obviously-well-thought-out patriotic sentiment (the irate rambling against Michael Moore, whom I don't care for much either - he, Bill O'Reilly, Al Franken, and Dick Cheney should be in the same helicopter crash) to your intellectually-stimulating banter on how proudly you don your fur garments. Being in the public eye, that can make you a target in more ways than one, but that is neither here nor there and is not my concern.
My concern is that as someone who is a general fan of sports, it is getting tiring to me that some superficially-pulchritudinous wives are able to garner even a smidgeon of media attention in order to rant and rave and promote whatever pathetically-inane ideology they want to promote. I don't mind when someone wears fur, though it disgusts me like pedophilia or necrophilia disgusts me. What bothers me is a salient lack of regard for anything other than yourself, which is evident in how you phrase your statements regarding wardrobe and possessions. Narcissism. Stick with the stripping and (it is an affront to most intelligent people to hear you speak or to even have to read your words retyped on paper).

ANNA BENSON'S response....
Dear Doofus,
My, my, my...I guess you are proud of your little rant; did it take you all night to write? Are you proud of your erudite comments? I am sorry that you think I am ignorant because of my beauty. It is rather unfortunate. Have you ever read, "The Beauty Myth," by Naomi Wolfe? It is a good read if you haven't...and I thoroughly believe in educating myself on a subject before I decide to spew magniloquent diarrhea to offending parties.
Anyhoo, I am glad I stimulated you both intellectually and emotionally...that was my intent. Your profound and cathartic response has solidified your retardedness. I have an idea...since you love animals sooooo much, why don't you go marry a dog? Or are you already married to one? If I base my assumptions on your own inane ideology, then it stands to reason that your self-professed intelligence equates with a small penis and other less-than-fortunate physical attributes.
I am sorry that you are a member of PETA, the animal-humping losers. As a truly pulchritudinous woman, a carnivore, and a realist, I hope you encounter a rabious dog in a dark alley so that you can try to save him before he bites your big, loser ass.
I sincerely hope the Yankees don't screw it up again this year. I'll be thinking about you when the Mets are kicking some Yankee ass. Oh well, I would love to continue this intellectually stimulating banter, but I have a big juicy steak to go eat.
Go hug a ****ing tree you dork.
Love always,
Anna
:lol
Maybe the Mets should have kept Anna.

Anna Benson= Linda Warner, Anne Coulter. All 3 are loudmouth hos.
NY Daily News
With Met fans booing Benson and mocking him with shouts such as "Let's go, Anna," the ex-Met survived a shaky first inning and showed his former teammates he may have been able to help this season after all. Benson not only threw eight strong innings last night, but slugged his first career homer - off Pedro Martinez, no less - in the Orioles' 4-2 victory in front of 52,320.
Afterward, the ever-quotable Anna held an impromptu press conference in which she gloated about the Revenge of the Bensons and offered the Mets an adult salve to soothe the wounds of losing to Kris, the pitcher they dumped. Her proposal probably only reinforced the Mets' feeling they were right to trade the whole family.
"I am actually feeling generous," she said. "I was going to offer to send a case of K-Y Jelly down to the Mets' clubhouse. For as many guys that are prepared to use it. Give me a number."
Anna also clipped Shea, comparing it unfavorably with her hubby's new baseball digs, Camden Yards. She said she was out "puffing a cigarette" when Kris homered. "My brother-in-law, Kris' younger brother, came out screaming in my face that he hit a home run," she said. "Who would have thought it? I sat there the whole game and the only time he hits a home run, I am out there."

The Saturday night the trade was announced I was courtside at the Garden watching Larry Brown play Not My Fault. There was a call from the office: Forget the Knicks, get to the East Side, Anna Benson is holding a press conference at her publicist's office.
What I wrote that night was "The Mets traded the wrong Benson." I called her the Queen of I Am (although I'm not quite sure what I meant).
Anyway, Anna wasn't amused. She sent me an E-mail making all sorts of interesting suggestions that I can't repeat in a family newspaper. I wrote back and told her to relax, that I was only kidding, didn't mean anything nasty and "besides," I ended it, "who knew you could read?"
For some reason, she didn't appreciate that, either. She E-mailed me a few times. I'm hanging onto them in case Mr. Benson makes it to Cooperstown.
Last night, she reached her field-level box seat at Shea about 30 minutes before Mr. Benson threw his first pitch. She didn't have anything nasty to say - maybe because I didn't introduce myself - and pooh-poohed the popular suggestion that there was any unpleasantness between her and the Mets' front office.
"They treated me like a princess tonight," she said. "They had somebody escort me from my car to the seats so I wouldn't be late."
She was wearing a print dress, somewhere between low-cut and scoop-neck, spaghetti straps and enough jewelry to fill a container of cream cheese. They weren't of great value, she said. "I like wearing stuff that won't get me robbed."
She's a kidder, sometimes, and early last night was one of those times. Does she still regret Mr. Benson being traded? "I don't cry myself to sleep any more," she said.
The Christmas party came up (it always will.) This was the kids' party, when she dressed up as Mrs. Claus, and bent over to give the photographers their Christmas present: "I was sitting up the whole time," she said. "But I'm a 34 Triple-D. You're gonna get cleavage no matter what I do."
So, no regrets? "I regret my dress wasn't shorter and more low cut."
BTW The Atlanta Braves now have MANY weaknesses, but this is their MAIN WEAKNESS.
