I rolled the dice and landed on Orange again.
Will the Mets ever have a no-hitter? They're only one of four teams who have never had one. The other three are the Padres, the Devil Rays, and the Rockies. Will the Mets ever get one, and if so, when?
Yesterday's winner: Matty Bain
Doomsday. He killed SUPERMAN and he's invincible. If that doesn't make him an amazing super villain, I don't know what does. Special nod goes to Apocalypse, who could morph his arms in weapons and offed the X-Men.

Ray, we watched Oliver Perez pitch a one hitter until the ninth inning. The one hit? THE PITCHER. They will never pitch a no hitter as a team unless they do it Astros style where they use 7 guys in one game and they are all hot at the same time. I'm sorry, but they are doomed to hold that distinction with the other three, who I also do not believe will ever pitch a no hitter.
No. But Scott Kazmir will definitely pitch one for the Devil Rays in order to cruelly remind Mets fans that Jim (Cousin of Dan) Duquette traded him for Victor Zambrano.
Basically, that would be like trading Jon Lester for Steve Trachsel.
Sure they will...unfortunately, it will come in a loss during a losing streak when their offense is failing them, and most people won't even realize it happened. Oliver Perez will do it in June 2008. The opponent's leadoff hitter will reach on an error on the first pitch of the game, then steal second and reach third on a wild pitch. He'll score on a sac fly later in the first inning. The Mets will have their chances by logging 7 hits themselves, but will go 0 for the game with runners in scoring position. It'll be like a few years ago when Tanyon Sturtze had more complete games than wins when he was with the Devil Rays.
If Jason Hirsh reaches his potential for the Rockies, he'll do it for them. As for the Mets? Umm... Mike Pelfrey? Although he struggled this year, he's got decent stuff. But I doubt it--no major talent in their pipeline.
