Mets Lose 2 Games Today

Mets lost to the Nationals and Orioles today 13-1 and 9-0.

Chan Ho Park started against The Nationals
His final line for the day was 3 innings 7 Hits 7 Runs 4 Earned Raising his spring ERA to 8.68.
~In my opinion this start takes Park out of the race for the #5 spot. And gives the spot to Mike Pelfrey.

Aaron Sele started against The Orioles, and was no better then Park.
Sele pitched 5 innings giving up 8 hits 6 runs 5 earned. Sele's ERA is now 7.82.
~Sele's start was diffrent from Park's though.. As Sele gave up all his runs in the first inning, and then pitched well the rest of the day. Sele might make the team as a Long Reliever.

Jorge Sosa who was the leading canidate for the LR spot did not help his cause at all..
Sosa pitched 2 innings gave up 8 Hits 6 Runs 3 Earned. His ERA is now 5.40
~I don't see why the Mets like Sosa. He throws hard but throws a ball that moves back over the plate and is batting practice for the hitters. The Mets should call Jason Vargas back up because so far this spring he looked the best and deserves a spot in the Pen more then Sosa

Lastings Milledge did nothing to hurt his cause today going 2 for 4 raising his average to .375
~Milledge came to camp with a great attitude and looking great. He has been a monster this spring hitting everything. He should be the starting Right Fielder over Shawn Green because he offers so much more then Green.
1.Better Defense 2.More Speed 3.Ability to hit leftys


Though the Mets got crushed today im not worried.. Taking a look at who pitched today nobody that pitched and gave up runs will be on the mets opening day roster besides Joe Smith (2 innings 2 runs ERA 2.16)Feliciano Schoweneiss and Wagner all pitched scoreless innings.
