Just shy of being on pace for 30 HRs (as today is the 2/3 mark of the season)
And when we figure in the ABs that he missed in April before being awarded the 1B job full time you can project that he IS on pace to reach the 30 mark and maybe crack it.

What a lovely game to stay with us during the off day.

Only challenge left is the recapturing of and absconding with Marlon Byrd.

[Centerfield]

Lucas Duda says the dimensions at CitiField are too small.

[Edgy MD]

Can you imagine if the Mets dealt off Duda instead of Davis and their seasons otherwise continued on the track they are on now?

[Zvon]

15 hits.
3 each from Murph, Lags and Mr T.
Gotta love it

I don't even want to imagine. Every time we hear that the Mets always make the wrong call, let's remember Davis-Duda.

(Now watch as Ike Davis miraculously turns around his career and turns into a Hall of Famer.)

Screw Philadelphia

Bacon on a stick.

Delicious bacon on a stick.

I think it looks like a slug that got run over by a truck.

Everything about today-- from the Shake Shack line, to the YoungerPooper almost decapitating herself by nearly hitting a banister at full clip, right down to the camp kids screaming high-pitched screams when the scoreboard ordered us to MAKE SOME NOISE-- was redeemed by the win, and how it came about, and the smiles on everyone's faces before, during, and after. The weather was fantastic, the moods more so. A viewbook day, as we used to say on particularly sunny, this-campus-NEVER-looks-this-nice days back at the alma mater. Simply... beautiful.

Not bacon-on-a-stick beautiful, but still.
