Burrell should have picked his head up after turning 2nd, but I think he picked up the sign from Smith that he was waving Utley home. Smith changed his mind, Burrell didn't pick his head up, we all saw what resulted.

Smith has made a boatload of mistakes at 3rd. I can't see why we can't find someone better for that spot. Everyone wants to blame Manuel, but it seems he has very little direct control over plays like this.

I fully blame Manuel for this. It was Manuel's decision to fire Bombard who was a much better third base coach (well not that it takes much). The problem was Bombard and Varsho would give Manuel suggestions, Manuel would ignore them, then when everything would blow up Maunuel would act all confused.

Bombard was also a very successful minor league manager with alot of these guys and Manuel saw him as a threat.

I have a bet with a friend, and I can't seem to find the best place to look up the stats on this.

How many NL pitchers (with 10 ABs or more), have a better batting average than Pat Burrell?

(Basically where is there a list of just pitchers and their batting records - I can sort out the AB's)

Victorino has the sickest arm in the league, or is at least "pound for pound" the best at outfield assists in the league.

Love it. The Mets had the ball go their way tonight and J-Roll crushes them at Shea.

Are you serious?? Much as I don't think Bourn/Werth are anything to scream about I'd much rather watch them strikeout than Burrell.
