Honestly, do you really think a win against the Royals in April is as important as a win against a divisional rival, fighting for a playoff spot in September?

The Mets, this season, would have gladly won a big game in September. You can always make up for a loss in April in any of the remaining months. You don't have much time to make up a few key losses in September.

If you win in April and May then maybe you wont need to win as much in Sept. Each months wins are very important. To say a win in Sept is as important as a win in April is silly to me.

You are right. I know the Rockies wish they would have had the winning streak they had in April, rather then in September.

If they won more in april they wouldnt have needed the streak

It took the Rockies 90 wins to clinch the wild card. What makes a difference how those 90 wins were allocated over the season? Perhaps if they won 12 out of 14 in April instead of going 10-16 in that month then they would have pushed for 1st place in their division. Every win and loss counts the same. I do agree that a good win is important for the big "MO."

If we only had someone to play other than Peralta we'd be doing ok this postseason!!! I've seen 6 games this postseason and nothing bad from him in any aspect of the game. I guess there was that one occasion when he didn't throw out a fast left handed batter on the Yankees on a slow roller in the hole, but that would be awfully picky when that play led to exactly zero runs scored. I guess he's in a tough spot following the beloved Omar at that position, but going back through the history of Tribe shorstops...Felix Fermin, tom Veryzer, Jerry Dybzinski, Julio Franco, Mike Fischlin, Larvell Blanks, Frank Duffy, I'd be hard pressed to find more than Boudreau and Vizquel ranking above Peralta. Woody Held?? Chapman?? Maybe Franco...but not sure about that.

He's a really nice player. Peralta that is.

I stand fast by my decision to get him outa town and put Vizquel,Jr. at short.



I would take Fermin,Franco and Duffy over Here's Jhonny any day.

You are beyond crazy!! Jhonny's made every single play you can make this series with the glove. OF course, I'm ignoring the fact he completely turned the series around from disaster with his 3 run homer in game 2 and his rally starting walk and 1st to 3rd in the 6th inning allowed them to get the game to extra innings. I'm guessing you'd probably take Rick Manning over Grady Sizemore as well and Andy Allansen over Victor Martinez. And Rick Waits over CC Sabathia.
