Calling All Cars, Be On The Lookout For Brian Stokes
An article by 
Brian Stokes has been missing since April 28th and none seems to know why he hasn’t been seen in a game since then.
When last seen, Stokes was wearing his home uniform and had tossed 1.2 scoreless innings against the Marlins.
He can easily be identified by his 0.00 ERA.
Stokes is known to brandish a 98 MPH heater in his arsenal so consider him armed and dangerous.
He asn’t been convicted of any crimes, but we’d like to bring him in for questioning.
He may have been injured during an encounter with a pesky Marlin, but none of his associates have confirmed that.
Some believe he may a victim of foul play by his manager, Jerry Manuel, who has been known to bury people alive in the back of the bullpen and sometimes chain players in the back of his doghouse. We are keeping a close watch on him and consider him one of our prime suspects in this case.
We are also keeping an eye on one called Sean Green who has apparently had a lot to gain since Stokes disappeared.
We will continue to update you as we learn more information.
SERIOUSLY… Where is this guy???

Went to my first Mets game, a Mayors Trophy game at Shea, in '73. We beat the Yankees 8-4 and I was hooked. I marched in two Banner Day parades, and before the Grand Slam single, there was the "Hendu Can Do" grand slam - I was there. I've collected Mets memorabilia all my life and started Mets Merized Online to feed my addiction.

I was wondering the same thing. He did warm up in the pen yesterday.
One comment!!! It took me 17 minutes to make that graphic!
I cant understand it! And is Sean Green reminding anyone else of Schow and Heilman??
That’s a nice picture, and I guess you reminded the Mets that he’s still there.
I think the Mets have Stokes and Green mixed up. In close games they continue to bring in Green aka Aaron Heilman ’09, and in blowouts, like today, they brought in Stokes to pitch the 9th with a 9 run lead. Makes no sense whatsoever and it is really quite frustrating.
Matt, You are absolutely correct. Why does Jerry get thinkgs backwards at times? Can Omar dump Green please! Then there would be no chance of Jerry sending him out to the mound when Stokes should get the call.
Great Post! very funn:)
haha nice post
