Random Tidbits and Thoughts

Willie RandolphFinally nice to see a come-from-behind win for once. The Mets really needed a dramatic finish for both the fans and themselves.

Matt Lindstrom’s fastball is really fast. What a pitcher. Last season, he registered 102 mph on the radar gun in a game against the Pirates.

Jorge Sosa has found a new home in Houston. The Houston Chronicle reports that Sosa signed a minor-league deal with the Astros and will report to Triple-A Round Rock and will work with highly respected pitching coach Burt Hooton in his road back to the majors.

In other former Met news, Nationals catcher Jesus Flores hit his first career grand slam, leading the Nationals to a 6-4 win over the Padres yesterday.

Having three left-handed relievers available to come out of the pen is a valuable commodity, and this trio of Scott Schoeneweis, Pedro Feliciano and Billy Wagner are doing a fantastic job so far this year. In 59.2 innings collectively, these three have combined for a 1.37 ERA, with 45 strikeouts.

Finally, does anyone want to take a guess on how long it takes Keith Hernandez to mention how much he loves the new behind-the-plate camera angle in tomorrow night’s game?

    While baseball has gone into a bit of a lull the past two weeks, I have spent quite a bit of time Tumbling. Tumblr is the future of blogging, at least I happen to think so. I’m convinced you’ll be hearing a lot about it in 2008.

    If you’re curious, check out my Tumblr here.

    Happy New Year everyone!

    Who Is Hot Foot?

    Hot Foot was founded by a group of life long friends who also happen to be die hard Mets fans. Hot Foot comes from the great 1986 Mets relief pitcher Roger McDowell who would use a wad of gum to stick a roll of cigarettes to the back of unsuspecting teammates shoes and light them on fire, thus a Hot Foot. Hot Foot is inspired by the same rock and roll baseball mentality of Roger and the 86 Mets, and uncensored commentary with news, notes, rumors and analysis revolving around the world of the Amazin New York Mets.
