Mets Suffer a Major Loss



New York (AP)- The Mets suffered a major loss today as Carlos Delgado has been placed on the 60 day disabled list with a torn hamstring. The injury was suffered before the previous game against the Padres. He is expected to miss 2 to 3 months. The Mets are expected to either have Julio Franco be the full-time starter at 1st base, or look to acquire veteran help via trade.

Re: Lan's New York Mets

Mets Acquire a Fill-In



New York (AP)- The Mets have acquired a 1st baseman to platoon with Julio Franco in the absence of Carlos Delgado over the course of the next 2-3 months. Shortstop Cesar Izturis has been sent to the Red Sox for First Baseman Hee-Seop Choi. Choi is a 26 year old left handed 1st baseman who hails from South Korea. He is a career .240 hitter and appeared in 133 games last season for the Dodgers hitting .253 with 15 HRs and 42 RBIs.

"We realize we had just acquired Izturis a short time ago as a defensive shortstop to help backup two positions for us, but due to this recent injury to Carlos Delgado we had to make a move. Franco is a solid player but in all honesty he's too old to play every day at age 47. For now Choi will get the start against right handed pitching, and Franco will spell him every few games and also against left handed pitching."

Game 21: New York Mets (11-9) @ San Francisco Giants



Mets Outdueled in 12 Innings, Fall 2-1

San Francisco (AP)- The New York Mets dropped a tough one in San Francisco tonight falling on a 2 out hit by Omar Vizquel in the bottom of the 12th inning. After Lance Niekro reached on a single, Mets reliever Aaron Sele walked Randy Winn putting runners on 1st and 2nd with 2 outs. The Giants pinch ran for for Niekro with Jason Ellison which ultimately provided to be the important substitution. Omar Vizquel lined a 3-2 single into right field, and being that it was 2 outs the runners were moving on the pitch. Regardless, Nady got it to quickly and had a good shot at getting Ellison at the plate, but the throw was airmailed and Ellison scored the game winning run.

Reliever Accardo quickly gave up the lead giving 4 hits including an RBI by Ramon Castro and a 2 RBI double by Darin Erstad to to put the Mets up 4-1, a lead they would never give up. Tom Glavine picked up his 3rd win of the season pitching 7 innings and giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. Heath Bell pitched a scoreless inning in the 8th and Billy Wagner picked up his 8th save of the season in a scoreless 9th.

Mets Acquire a Trio of Veterans



New York (AP)- It has been announced today that the Mets have struck a deal with the St. Louis Cardinals. Jason Marquis, a veteran sinker baller was placed on the trade block by the Cardinals and the Mets wasted no time in contacting the Cardinals organization. The two teams have agreed to a deal in which:

Cardinals Get:
SP- Brian Bannister
OF- Victor Diaz
IF- Anderson Hernandez

Mets Get:
SP- Jason Marquis
OF- So Taguchi
IF- Scott Spiezio

Marquis, like Bannister, has struggled in the earlygoing getting off to a 1-2 start with a 6.96 ERA but the Mets are confident that he will come around. Anderson was tough to give up as he has a lot of potential and should be an excellent defensive infielder for the Cardinals and Bannister has a lot of potential to be a #3 starter in the Cardinals rotation. The Mets acquired Taguchi for his speed off the bench as AH was previously their speed man. Marquis will move into the #3 spot in the rotation and will make his first appearance against the Pirates on May 3rd.

A-Rod Goes 5 for 5 in Mets Come From Behind Win, 7-6

Atlanta (AP)- The Mets came behind from a 5-0 deficit through 5 innings to come out on top over their division rival Atlanta Braves. David Wright homered in his 3rd consecutive game, a 3 run homer, in the top of the 6th to pull the Mets within 2. Then in the top of the 7th the Mets would tie it up with the bases loaded for Bernie Williams. Williams hit a fly ball to left center that Andruw Jones misplayed for an error, so instead of getting a sac fly he got an error out of it and and there was a force out at 2nd base. So Taguchi drove in the tying run on a sacrifice fly. The Mets would take the lead in the top of the 8th on RBI hits by Alex Rodriguez and Paul Lo Duca, both on doubles. Duaner Sanchez gave up his 1st run of the season in relief in the 8th to pull the Braves within 1 but it wouldn't be enough as Wagner once again shut the door for his 9th save of the season.

Reyes Records 100th Career Steal, Mets Tee Off on Braves 9-4

Atlanta (AP)- The Mets closed out April by demolishing the Braves parade of lousy pitchers, teeing off for 9 runs on count em, 20 hits. Having multi-hit games were Paul lo Duca and Alex Rodirguez who were 3 for 5 each, and A-Rod hit 2 home runs. Reyes, Wright, Erstad, and Spiezio all had 2 hit games, and Xavier Nady was 4 for 5 on the day. Victor Zambrano picked up his 4th win of the season to improve to 4-1 with a 3.03 ERA, pitching 5 innings giving up 1 run on 3 hits, walking 3 , striking out 1. Aaron Sele gave up 3 runs in 1 inning of relief on back to back Braves home runs.

Kyle Davies lasted only 3.1 innings giving up 3 runs on 7 hits and leaving with the bases loaded. Boyer allowed 2 runs, Devine allowed 1, and James gave up 3 in the loss.

Reyes' stolen base, his 8th of the season, was his 100th career swipe.
