There it is, Wrighteous.

Ump calling low strikes. Curtis is all "Eh, I like low strikes."

We should find room to play this Cespedes guy a little more.

His throwing last year was fine too, at least statistically, catching 33% of would-be base stealers, versus the league-wide figure of 28%. Injuries will come. They'll come with greater frequency to catchers. Sh'ea la vie.

David Wright is way too whiffy these days.

Ouch. That's what I kinda 'spected.

Hamilton's wheels are on display.

This would seem to be the type of team that could eat up Col�n, but the ump has a wide zone and Bartolo knows how to exploit that.

Scoreless in the second. Grandy got picked in the first on a move that was likely a balk. Duvall can't put the ball in play so far this series.

Yeah, they certainly seem to have been dumping from the pitching side of the boat. Second division clubs sell at deadline time. They also shopped Cousin Brucie.

Eric Campbell still looking for his first start.

It doesn't look like a re-build to me. I mean, TheOldMole's poetic faith in the Metsies' superiority aside, Mesaraco, Cozart, Phillips, and Bruce (unavailable at the current time) are solid veteran hitters. And Votto is Votto. It's a real lineup and stuff.

A simple number based on an arbitrarily derived formula to measure the league's hotter and colder teams. Wins in your last 10 games plus the length of your current winning streak (or minus the length of your current losing streak). That way, the heat on a hot team doesn't completely dissipate if they lose a single game, but it's a setback momentum wise. And if you're red-hot, but lose two in a row, it can take you back to square one, momentum-wise. I think that's a somewhat representative indication of how momentum works, or is perceived, anyhow.

Gosh, Schebler didn't come close.

Wow. Cyndi has been pitching out of trubbs all night. One more big one to get.

Yay! X-rays negative on Brandon Phillips.

It makes little sense that that is a double. The guy was there and it went through his glove.

Sheesh. Poor Phillips. One of the coolest guys in the league, year-in and year-out.

I wouldn't count the Giants out. It's an even year. They're due.

Congratulations, your Mets start the week as the first-place team in the Wild Card race, and the hottest team in the league.
