Back!!!

I'm back from vacation today and will start to update again. Sorry for the non-updates.

What I missed


The Mets are now 5-2 a 1/2 game behind the braves for 1st place, and tied with The Marlins for 2nd.

The Phillies are tied for last place with The Washington Nationals at 1-6 and their bullpen is just horrible.

The Mets went to Atlanta and lost 2 out of 3 games. They could of easily won all 3 games but lost 2 games because of bad play.

After The Mets beat Mark Redman, Tom Glavine faced off against John Smoltz. Then in the 6th inning in a tie game a routine fly ball was hit to Shawn Green which he dropped and a run scored. Then another fly ball was hit to him and he didn't set up correctly to throw and another run scored. If he would of made the catch on the routine fly ball only 1 run would of scored and could of been a totally different game.

The next game The Mets had a 2-1 lead going into the 8th with Aaron Heilman pitching, usually a win but Heilman had a really bad game that cost The Mets the game.

But you can't complain with a 5-2 start and getting 5+ innings from your starters every time out.

Shawn Green has surprised everyone with his good hitting, and has pretty much nothing to worry about as it seems Milledge can't even get in a game.

Willie Randolph is making some really bad moves that are being covered up. On the bench you have right handed hitting Lastings Millege, and Damion Easley. We know Shawn Green are Jose Valentin are bad against lefty's so against Mark Redman who starts? Green and Valentin. Didn't see the point in that. And then again Mets have to face one of the best lefty's in the game in Cole Hamels and Willie again leaves Green and Valentin in the game. Though Valentin had a big hit it was later in the game when Hamels had left.

Then there was the biggest dumb move. In a 3-2 Mets lead after John Maine had been taken out Willie Randolph let Burgos pitch to Howard after Howard had just seen Burgos have a 12 pitch at bat with Utley. Felciano was ready in the pen but Willie kept Burgos in there. The outcome? 3 run homer from Howard.

But yesterday Willie was bailed out by the offense who went off in the bottom of the 8th inning. And of course with the bases loaded and 1 out a ball hit right to Jimmy Rollins and he can't handle it. The guy who doesn't shut his mouth makes the game losing play, and now his team is in last place.
