Health: Alou’s Calf was Tight
By Matthew Cerrone - Jun 10, 2008 11:43 pm

Following tonight’s game, Willie Randolph told reporters that Moises Alou was pulled from the game after the rain delay because his calf was ‘a bit tight.’

Randolph said Alou will be fine, they were just being extra caution in his first game back from the disabled list.

    This isn’t even funny anymore…

    Shocker!

    I wonder what aging superstar Omar has in mind this time to replace Alou when he goes back on the DL tomorrow.

    What else is new?

  3. Ok, who had 6 innings in the Moises Alou injury pool? Please come forward and collect your winnings.

    OMAR MUST GO.

    Imagine if we had Sammy on this team too…

      are you trying to make the Mets even less likeable?

      • ness589 says:

        We’d probably hate them less because they’d be scoring runs. 8 unanswered runs is pathetic.

        haha bonds would almost be ok to me right now. we’d be the most hated team in baseball but who cares h=if hed hit us a few homers. give us some walks. haha i just convinced myself.

        this team is in serious need of some juice.
        compliments of balco.

      think about the SNY ratings if we had Bonds…

    So Matt, when exactly do you close the laptop and just quit?

    Because continuing to write the same crap over, and over, and over, and over, and over…

    …well, after a while ya just gotta be tired of beating that horse, no?

  9. Boooooo says:

    i hope alou retires tonight

  10. teufelshuffle86 says:

    I’m sure Omar can find a way to coax Julio Franco out of retirement and into a two-year deal. He’d be a perfect fit for this team full of losers.

    SHOCK!!!!

    This goes in line with the earth going around the sun.

  12. ebfnyc says:

    is he really that fragile or just intimidated by the big show?

    i just don’t buy he is as fragile as his record of injuries and his perceived, “tightness.”

  13. ness589 says:

    How long until he’s on the DL again?

  14. casey s. says:

    why the hell is alou not in the AL? he could DH and play 162 games. he’d probably go .300 / 35 / 120.

    • domosnacks5 says:

      he’s getting paid his millions either way. you think it matters to him where he plays as long as the money’s green and is there every friday afternoon?

    • 2NYCE says:

      I think Alou would do well in the AL.

  15. Airfeet says:

    If Alou doesnt go on hte DL…we need to throw him in the 3 hole, move Wright into the 4 hole, and slide church back into the 2 hole. and if we dont score at the top of our lineup we’ll just have to wait for the next turn around

    • EliPorter says:

      i dont know if this is the most intelligent idea, but the mets need to shake things up somehow. what ticks me off about willie is he doesnt seem to have any sense of urgency. he needs to try something thatll turn this team around

      • Aquadealer says:

        Isnt another 5 game losing streak enough to get Willie fired???? What the hell is it going to take?????

      • SoCalMetsFan says:

        Why not put every player’s name in a hat. Then Willie comes out into the stands before he makes his line-up and picks a lucky fan (oh pick me — oh pick me) I can hear it now…

        Then the fan reaches in the hat and pulls out a name… and… BAM… that guy bats lead off…

        Then to the next fan… and… well… you get the picture.

    In the Mets land of no accountability Randope, Omar, HoJo, and Jacket all still have jobs while the Wilpons continue to collect millions from the fans. What a nightmare and a joke, this team must be sold to someone who cares about something more than building a shrine to a team that doesn’t even exist (Brooklyn Dodgers).
