Game Comments
Swept by Atlanta
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. The Mets failed to score a run for the second game in a row. In yesterday’s Game Comments I said that the Mets not being able to score was a great concern. Perhaps I was being alarmist based on the fact that the pitcher they were […]
Glavine Falls to Braves Again
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. Tom Glavine pitched 6 great innings last night. Unfortunately the 7th wasn’t anywhere near as good as Glavine lost to his onld team again. But of even greater concern was the Mets not being able to hit anything against Tim Hudson. Let’s hope they can turn […]
The Wright Call?
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. How far out of the baseline can a player go without being called out? Second base umpire Jeff Nelson showed us last night. With one out in the eighth inning and the bases loaded Doug Mientkiewicz hit the ball to Braves first baseman Julio Franco who […]
Pitching and/or Defense?
Click here for a recap of Friday night’s game. Click here for a recap of Saturday’s game. Click here for a recap of yesterday’s game. Over the weekend the Mets proved the age old adage of baseball that pitching and defense wins games. Unfortunately they proved it by losing 2 out of 3 to the […]
Koo, Koo, Ka-choo
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. I haven’t had a chance to read very much today but I’m sure that many people are questioning Willie Randolph’s call to have Dae-Sung Koo come in to pitch the 9th inning instead of Braden Looper. I actually have no problem with this call outside of […]
Benson Shuts Down Reds
Click here for a recap of last night’s game. Alot of people in the media and the blogs are refering to last night’s Mets victory over Cincinnati at Shea as revenge for the Reds season opening sweep of the Amazins’. Forget revenge. These guys are professionals who try to win every time they go out […]
My Take on the St. Louis Series
It wasn’t a totally lost weekend for the Mets as they dropped 2 out of 3 to the St. Louis Cardinals. The team had been playing well going into the series and this was a good test of how this team would perform against a top notch club. You don’t really know how much a […]
Zambrano Has Good Outing
Click here for a recap of yesterday’s game. VÃctor Zambrano had a good outing (6 IP, 3 H, 3 ER) with the exception of the second inning where he allowed all 3 of the runs scored against him. If he can take this through to his next outing then he’s going to back the Mets […]
Doug Mientkiewicz for President
Click here for a recap of yesterday’s game. Doug Mientkiewicz came up big again with a game winning home run. He’s now hit as many home runs in the first 33 games of the season (6) as he hit in all of last season. I don’t think anyone expects him to continue to rip the […]
DÃaz Replaces Hot Floyd
Click here for a recap of yesterday’s game. Imagine yourself a major league manager. Your team is playing well, you have injured players returning to active duty and your team seems poised to turn the corner and make some noise. Today you will see your number 3 starter pitch his first game of the season […]
