Schneider's 3-run homer gives Nieve early cushion

Knowing that Citi Field can be an unforgiving place at times, it was surprising Friday to hear a mixed welcome for Luis Castillo rather than loud boos.

It's only a small sample, but Fernando Nieve might have the same impact for the Mets that Brad Lidge had for the Phillies last year. Remember, no one made a big deal for Lidge when the Phillies traded Michael Bourn for him. Although the Mets didn't trade for Nieve, he might have that same kind of impact.

Nieve is The Natural

drafted at 16 when he was only 170 pounds

ten years and 50 pounds later he pounds the strike zone

[James]

The run the Mets tacked on in the eigth was huge. This is something they have not done enough this season.

nostephanfan: you're a genius!

Will: Yes.

Mom: It was great last night. Good for you too?

Does anyone notice whenever the Mets win the girlie-boy pooped stained underwear Mets Choke never shows up.
Probably under his crib sucking on his bib.
Hahahahahah

If he continues to pitch this way, Nieve will get more than one start. If he can throw strikes with his breaking pitches, his stuff is as good as any starting pitcher on the met staff besides Johan.

[fan of nostephanfan]

...another excellent post by the master. I am in awe of your genius.

Good chance of a rainout today, whatever happened to Sunday double headers?
