Mets win 6-5 after another bullpen disaster
I’m really, really glad that I watched the Olympic closing ceremonies last night. Even though they weren’t live and even though NBC made a bunch of cuts without telling me, it still meant that I didn’t have to suffer through … Continue reading
Baxter walks into history, Mets down Padres 6-2
Last night in New York’s 6-2 win over the San Diego Padres, Mike Baxter became the first Mets player to walk five times in a nine-inning game. He’s the first major league player to walk five times in a nine-inning … Continue reading
Mets to wear sweet 1989 throwbacks tonight in San Diego
19…19…1989 Check it out! It’s Metro gone retro. The Padres are holding a throwback party, and as their costumes, the Mets are wearing road jerseys from the 1989 season. Unfortunately, from 1988 through 1992, the Mets wore boring Yankees-style “New … Continue reading
Mets are hopefully done losing now
Thanks to the Penn State football team being in dire straights, my attention has wavered a bit from the Mets, who are in admittedly less dire straights. Don’t tell the Mets fans, though. Sure, a 47-51 record after 98 games … Continue reading
Mets bats blow up again, complete sweep of Rays
It was great that the Mets were able to score 11 runs in a series opening win against the Rays on Monday, and Tuesday night’s nine runs that backed R.A. Dickey’s gem were more than enough. Yet, the Mets spoiled … Continue reading
Batista amazes as Mets beat Brewers 3-1
Some things are best left misunderstood. One of those things is Miguel Batista’s performance last night at Citi Field against the Milwaukee Brewers. After a couple of cringe-inducing starts that had Mets fans like myself begging for Jeremy Hefner to … Continue reading

Frank Francisco has been really bad this season so far, but his past performance shows that he’s likely to bounce back and be a decent relief pitcher for the rest of the season. That’s why, no matter what Mets manager … Continue reading

Mets experience awesomeness and then agony in Miami
Rooting for a so far successful but ultimately flawed team like the Mets can be very frustrating. On one hand, the team is 19-15 with the fifth-best winning percentage in the National League. On the other hand, only four teams … Continue reading
Mets amaze fans again, still lose in Miami 6-5
Not tonight, boss. That’s the attitude I had to take with tonight’s Mets loss. Just like during the sweep in Philly, New York treated the other team’s bullpen like a piƱata and came back from a multi-run deficit. However, a … Continue reading
Jed Lowrie RBI single spells doom for Mets in Houston
It seems almost too fitting that guys with first names like Jed and Bud would be heroes for the Houston Astros, but that’s what happened last night at Minute Maid Park. Houston shortstop Jed Lowrie hit a single up the … Continue reading
