[TransMonk]

And...we pick up where we left off.

3-0 Gints Mid 1st. You're gonna have to score some runs today, boys.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Nice, brisk second inning-- now THAT's some speed Met-tle.

[Frayed Knot]

I'm at the point where I'm just wondering how, not if, their first batter of the inning is going to get on.

[Fman99]

Meh.

[Frayed Knot]

Meh?
This game would have to improve by leaps and bounds just to get to where it can get a sniff of Meh!

[Piggiestomatoes]

At least we're not the Red Sox.

[Fman99]

C'mon, rally, you fucking Mets.

[Edgy MD]

I'm just tuning in. Rallying now.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Attaway! Just 8 more walks and we're right back in this, boys!

[Ceetar]

#1 Jordany Is in the game.

[Edgy MD]

How in the world do they let Valdespin swing at the first pitch?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Teach your children better manners, Edgeward.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, that's on me.

[Edgy MD]

Dana DeMuth, doing no favors.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Jeez. Dana Demuth must have one late dinner reservation.

As bad as Ike's going, that one wasn't his fault.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Ask the boys at Elias the last time someone left all these runners on base. One ball a foot and a half outside and strike 3 at your shoetops.

[Edgy MD]

Blurm.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Ike. Miller

Autospeller made looper into miller.

That may be coming, but maybe not too soon.
DJ Carasco started tonight in A ball. He went one inning. Don't know if that was because of a weather delay or they wanted him to get his inning in before any inclement weather would cancel a relief appearance.

Since opening 4-0, the Mets are 4-8. That's a little closer to the 2012 squad I expected...but so far away from the one I wanted.

*sigh*

Ups and downs right? all teams have 'em. minimize the downs and maximize the ups..as in, start the next winning streak right now before you drop below .500.
