Mets v. Kris Benson

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Watching this afternoon's replay on MTV. One issue -- they gave the final score on the crawl.

But for now, we're winning 3-0 in the third, with 3 runs off Benson .

Zamby went 5 with 2 ER, 1a solo HR by Mora.

Royce Ring hurling in the 7th: He's gone pretty radically sidearm.

Beltran got himself picked off 3rd base earlier.

Endy Chavez trying to make the team by slamming a 2-run double to the opposite gap.

We took a 5-2 lead into the 9th but all fans of 8-syllable Mets are sad: Bartolome Fortunato coughed up 4. Desi Relaford's hit wins it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Zambrano tries to redeem the Kazmir trade for at least a night, then Fortunato spits in redemption's face.

As long as the Mets can do better than, say, 11-13 with a 4.30 ERA, we should win.

i don't know about that.

If the Mets can't adequately fill 5 SP slots, and Julio continues to be the disaster he's been for 2 years, I'd say the Mets lose that matchup.
