Mets made some last minute moves, getting starter John Thomson from the Rockies, and reliever Steve Reed from the Padres.  These moves should help to solidify their pitching staff, and give them more depth for their stretch run.

The NL Wild Card race should be interesting with the Giants, Dodgers, Mets, Reds, and Astros all in the hunt. I think the Reds will slowly fade, and I think the Astros and Mets will keep inching closer. So basically i think it\'ll be a tight race that\'ll go down to the last week, maybe even a one game playoff. Who knows. But then again, none of this will probably ever happen due to the strike. :rpissed:

The Reds slowly fade, don\'t count on it.  They just rocked the Dodgers.

Who did the Mets give up?
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Payton was the main player.  He went to Colorado in the Thomson trade.  They also sent Mark Corey and a minor leaguer to Colorado, and got Mark Little along with Thomson.  They gave up Steve Reed and Jason Middlebrook to the Padres for Reed and two minor leaguers.

I just noticed Payton was missing was from the lineup...

They gave up Reed to get Reed?

Anaheim is feeling the power of another homerun hitter, Anahiem is not in a good position tonight w/ floyd.

It\'s one game, you can\'t determine anything from it. The Dodgers are slumping big time, whether they can turn it around it another story.

I see no reason why the Reds would fade, and a team full of unproven players like the Dodgers wouldn\'t.

And the Red Sox don\'t make the playoffs.  Just have a feeling ;)
