One thing to come out of this crappy series is that Kirk Nieuwenhuis outplayed Juan Lagares, which may feed into the Mets thinking. It may feed into YOURS!
The leave healthy goal is still within reach. Anyhow, the team has a history of getting swept by the Phils down the stretch in otherwise distinguished seasons.
Twins bit the big one last night and went down whining that the Indians don't play the game the right way. How disappointing, Paul Molitor's boys. Angels are my new best friends. Lay down, Texas rangers, lay down.
My worry that there are no other shortstops on the 40-man has returned. If they're going to activate somebody, they might as well do it now � release Monell or O'Flaherty or somebody a few days early so whoever can get some reps in.
MFPBHP for the evening is this almost anachronistic stately banker, drinking sweetly of the sweat of the working classes. Way to stay buttoned into the late innings of a messy game, Bayard Blankenship III.
