Be Patient, A Big Move Will Come
It’s been a long offseason for Mets fans as the team has not yet made a major move. If my Twitter feed is any indication it looks like Mets fans are getting increasingly antsy as they wait for Omar Minaya to pull the trigger on a big deal. It’s times like these that I feel […]
Last Night: Perez, Santana, Sheffield
Johan Santana had 5 days of rest between his last start and the first game after the all star break. But for some reason the Mets chose to start Oliver Perez in last night’s game against the Atlanta Braves. Perez actually pitched a decent game allowing 5 hits and 3 runs in 6 innings. He […]

Good News and Bad News
Yesterday was a real good news, bad news type of day for the Mets. Good – Last night’s game was rained out giving the Mets an extra day to regroup from two truly bad losses. Bad – Since this was scheduled to be the Mets only trip to Pittsburgh this year they will have to […]
Like Watching A Train Wreck
I can’t turn my back on this team for even a minute these days. On Monday I turned off the game to do some work when the Mets led 5-0 only to return in the 8th inning to see the tail end of J.J. Putz‘s meltdown. Then last night I had something to do during […]

Mets Score Behind Sub Par Niese
I don’t normally post during games but the Mets have scored 6 runs in 4 innings behind Jonathon Niese including a grand slam home run by Fernando Tatis. This show of run support prompted Johan Santana to say angrily “We’ve scored 6 runs for who?”

Santana Amazes, Delgado Races
What an interesting game last night. Johan Santana was his regular, spectacular self allowing only two hits and striking out 10 with three walks over 7 innings. Santana lowered his ERA to 0.91. Opponents are batting .048 against him with runners in scoring position. But the Mets bats could not wake up, scoring only one […]
