Dom Smith resting his sore wrist.

[ashie62]

Who will be the leader of the Mickey Mouse club today?

[Benjamin Grimm]

June was rather brutal, wasn't it?

[Edgy MD]

Cabrera just looks like he's missing a few parts. Yet he's playing day in and day out, even DGAANGs.

[Edgy MD]

Rosario just pulled and Elvis Andrus, miming a pretend catch of a popup behind Frazier as Frazier was catching the real ball.

[Edgy MD]

Straily is 3-2 on everybody. Got to get to him early.

[Edgy MD]

There be one. On another 3-2 pitch, too.

[ashie62]

Bend over Todd

But shit, he can still turn on one.

[Edgy MD]

Matz is in complete control except when Strailey is up.

Quite a coincidence that they announce this injury the day after Gary and The Daily News questioned the way they were using Dom.

[Edgy MD]

Actually Smith reported the sore wrist. Mick says that he was benched as a matter of strategic choice, pleading ignorance with regard to the sore wrist.

The extra batter was encouraging for Matz, as was most of the appearance. The still need 11 outs, though.

Dom is in the game!

Mets get a couple gift runs. I'll take it!

[Edgy MD]

Keep it real, Familia.

And I'd be very nervous without them.
Right now I'm only semi-nervous with them and a 3-run lead with the bottom 9th coming up.

[Edgy MD]

Something like vintage Familia.

[Guest 41Forever]

Undefeated in July!!!! Best month ever! No more last place!

[Frayed Knot]

and there was much rejoicing ... YAY!

[ashie62]

Best MLB team in July!

They're not THE best.
If fact, they have a lot of company.
They are tied with every other MLB team with a win today.

Some people just take the fun out of everything.

[G-Fafif]

Half of MLB is worse than the Mets this month and NOBODY is better.

[Zvon]

Just watched a replay of the game. A nice boring win. I like. Marlins played like we did all last month. Gotta like that too.
