[Guest Edgy DC]

Oh, Shmooston Shmeet. Stop talking about closers like they're invincible.

[TransMonk]

I wouldn't mind seeing a walk-off win.

LET'S GO METS! Get us started, Danny!

The team has left nine guys in scoring position with two outs tonight. Let's turn that around.

[Fman99]

Rally, you fucking Mets.

One down.

[ashie62]

Need one baserunner.

Or, you know, roll over. Whatevs.

[TransMonk]

I'm getting tired of wasting those early leads.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I think we may have to get used to the early going being a tough haul for a young team. At least tonight's game pretty clearly turned on a manager's call rather than a pitcher wrecking himself.

Plenty of positives. Pagan had his best game of the year, three straight pitchers did their jobs out of the bullpen in a close (abeit losing) game, and Dan Murphy is looking more like a secondbaseman (and player) everyday.

Perhaps they'll have things together in a week. Perhaps in 2015. Paulino and Bay are due off the DL in two weeks and then at least there'll be a full roster.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Worth repeating: Rockies have a nice team.

Mets had that all helping dreaded team meeting after the game , " it lasted two minutes" David Wright said , I think he was talking about that meeting.

I made this exact observation at the game tonight as well.

---

Not intentionally walking Tulowitzki in that spot (when first base was OPEN) was idiotic.

Glad to see some extra base hits falling but we looked terrible in the 8th and 9th against Lindstrom and Street.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Was Collins asked about that? What did he say?

I'll grudgingly accept if it was about challenge a young pitcher to go up against adversity rather than avoiding it, but sending a lefty up against one of the three or four best righthanded hitters there are is just asking so much.

[Gwreck]

Collins was asked. Second question of the post game news conference. He suggested he feared setting up a big inning by walking guys.

He sounded extremely pissed about the team's performance so far.

Does the CPF online store have stock of the Warthen watch yet?

I was thinking 2010 Matthews Jr., but yours works too.
