Game:: Mets 6 -- Braves 4
Welcome back Mr. Martinez.
After a shaky first...giving up four runs...he settled down and retired 12 straight after C. Jones' lead off double in the third.
Through the first 3 innings he gave up 5 hits, 2 walks and 4 runs. Innings 3 (after the double) thru 6 he gave up 0 hits and struck out 2.
Final Line: 6 IP, 5 Hits, 2 BB, 2 K, 4 ER. not GREAT. but you cant tell how he pitched from the box score.
Feliciano/Sanchez/Wagner combined for 9 outs. with sanchez giving up a walk to bettiment and the K-ing A. Jones to end the 8th in a big spot.
Reyes and Wright hit solo shots. Beltran hit a 2RBI single and Valentin added a sac fly.
Great game today ('cept for the 1st...)
el duque vs. hudson 1:20

Castro to 60-day DL :: Perez Up.
Milledge down :: Bannister up.

ARGH! :: Cubs 8 -- Mets 7
we gave up the runs early. tried to battle back, and fell just short.
Maddux is like the pitching version of chipper jones at shea. 14 wins in 30 starts at shea.
We will now operate in a six man rotation. Pedro will be returning on Friday to pitch against Atlanta.
Nice play by Lo Duca in the 8th to throw out a speedy Pierre.
Fun game...too bad we couldnt pull that one out.
Trades: The Heilman for Gil Meche rumor apparently is asolutely nothing. its a "non rumor."
Glavine v. Zambrano 7:10

No Sweep.: Astros 8 - Mets 4
well he beat us.
stupid tractor.
C-Del is hopefully breaking that slump going 2-2 with a 3-run HR and 2 walks.
Pelfrey still looks like a rookie out there. He has a bit o' trouble in those pressure spots with men on base. hes used to K after K after K. He looked like a guy just called up from AA. maybe it was the home crowd...wanting that 3rd win and the sweep...
"Who is going to be the odd-man-out when Pedro comes back..?" That had to have been going through his head.
well. 2 out of 3 aint bad says Meatloaf. next up Maddux and the Cubs.
oh. and Guy Conti (bullpen coach) underwent angioplasty to relieve (no pun intended!) a clogged artery. should be back with the team monday. were with you guy.

Game:: Mets 4 -- Astros 3
Preorder your Meatloaf and Joe Buck duet tape out soon!
but seriously...
El Duque gave up a 2-run HR to Lance Berkman, and a solo shot to Preston Wilson. and then promptly closed the door from there on.
C-Del hit a sac fly, scoring Valentin in the bot of the first.
and mr Xavier Nady hit a 3 run home run in the 4th inning.
the line on Hernandez 7 IP, 4 hits, 3 ER, 2 BB, and 8 K's. not too shabby.
Duaner pitched the 8th and Wagner saved it in the 9th.
not much to say. great pitching from el duque, after a shaky first. retired 9 (?) in a row.
~21 games over .500~
"I've made a revelation, A-Rod is responsible for global warming." --that guy who isnt Joe Buck.

The rain for Maine falls mainly during Gary Cohen jokes...
wow...
Mets win 7-0, led by a surprise starter, Mr. John Maine.
He pitched a complete game, 4 hit shut-out. And pitched so well, apparently we dont need to trade.
He only needed 98 pitches to get it done.
Maine does have to buy steak dinners for Floyd, Beltran and Lo Duca for keeping the shutout intact in the 4th and 8th.
~Floyd went up and over the wall to bring back a possible Chris Burke homerun.
~Beltran made a fantastic throw that bounced off the pitchers mound (through Delgados legs) right to Lo Duca, who promptly tagged out Munson tagging from third.
oh yeah...and Valentin hit a Grand Slam in the second, Delgado hit a 2 run blast in the 5th, and also a sac fly in the third.
C-Del went 1-2, BB, 2 runs scored, and 3 RBI.
would the real carlos delgado please stand up? and stick around...
just a solid game ALLL around. hopefully this is the real John Maine as well. and this continues!

Game:: Mets 4 - Reds 2 (10)
Scored early...2 solo shots. Got shut down by Arroyo from there...
Glav great early allowed 2 in the 5th. struggled thru the 6th...miraculously got out without any runs..thanks to heads up throw home play by Valentin.
Chad (Houdini) Bradford worked out of a bases loaded 1 out jam in the 7th. Hes been so solid.
A great throw out at second with Valentin sliding away and yet still blocking the plate.
anyway. Finished the trip 4-2 heading home to face houston and chicago.
El Duque tonight 7:10

Game:: Stupid Rain
it hurts to think about what would happen if that rain didnt come.
Traxx was going on all cylinders, picking off his early baserunner. mets got 2rbi hits from reyes and wright in those 2 innings pre rain.
and then...the rain. 2 hours and 23 minutes where i was reminded of Tsuyoshi Shinjo.
i forgot he wore #5...
anyway. props to SNY for the OBP stat now in each players batting graphic. i think that stat is just as important as the AVG.
yeah. i guess im sort of speechless on this game. we just collapsed after the 2nd inning.
~Pedro aiming to return in 10 days.
~Traded Keppinger for Gotay...straight minor league deal. 1-1.
Arroyo vs. Glav 12:30 today. toughhh game.

Doubly Grand
Carlos Beltran haters, please shut up.
I would have to say he's earning his money now.
A Grand Salami 2 games in a row. (first met since Robin Ventura in a double header against the Brewers, 1999)
Takes over the RBI lead. 27 HRs.
Hit that GS in the 7th to extend the lead from one run to 5. Added an RBI double in the 9th.
And what about Xavier Nady...solo shot in the 3rd. Guns down Royce Clayton trying to stretch that RBI single to a double in the 6th, got out of a possible disaster inning.
And we cant forget about Mike Pelfrey. Pitched "OK" getting into trouble over and over, but his sinker was working excellent, and he induced double plays to end the inning in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. Two of those DP's came off Griffey Jr's bat. He went 6 giving up 7 hits, 3 BB, and struck out 3.
Its good to have Reyes back. He went 0-4 with a walk and a FC, but scored 2 runs. He also forced Delgado to come off the bag twice with errant throws to first. But delgado still managed to get them out, and even joked about where his arm angle should be when throwing.
~Delgado is 5 for his last 33. in a major slump. thank god everyone else keeps hitting. Once were running on all pistons...ohh boy
~Cliff Floyd was finally quited going 0-4 on the day.
~Jose Valentin hit a solo HR in the 5th, extending his hitting streak to 6.
~Pedro is eating normal again.
== 7:10 tonight Traxx vs. Harang.

the return.
New York Mets baseball starts again. 2:20 @ historic Wrigley against the lowly Cubs.
~Traxx vs Maddux. interesting!
~Reyes will sit again today, still nursing his pinky.
~Maine will be shipped into the pen, and Pelfrey will make at least one more start.
~Pedro returning will be pushed back, after he came down with food poisoning, and couldnt throw over the ASB.
Trade Rumors have begun to pick up. Nats and Reds swapped 8 players, with Gary Majewski going to Cincy and Austin Kearns to Washington.
The lastest involving the mets, is dealing with the White Sox. Javier Vazquez and Freddy Garcia are available. They both have ERA's hovering around 5, maybe Rick "The Jacket" Peterson could tweak 'em a little...? It looks like we'd have to part with Sanchez or Heilman...
~I don't know how i feel on this one. Freddy had that great year a few years ago, and im sure hed do well with the mets, but do we really want to tinker with our 'pen...
well...Lets see how today goes. Lets Go Mets!

thank god for david wright.
comeback baby!
glavines win streak battles through, avoiding a loss for the third straight game.
Xavier Nady hit a two run shot, and made 2 solid plays in the field.
Lo Duca went 3 for 4 with an RBI.
But the game ball goes to David Wright for his 3 run, go ahead, eventual game winning home run in the bottom of the 8th.
Wagner gave up a solo shot, but still earned the save, as the mets earned a split with the marlins heading into the all-star break.
good luck to our all stars, and especially to david wright in the home run derby tommorrow night.
that is a great first half of the season...lets do it again.

what a day(game) and night
ok...the mets lost to the marlins 3-2 in game 1. they couldnt buy a hit, both their runs were unearned and scored without a hit. again, john maine pitched fairly well. 6 hits, 3 k's, 0 walks...except 3 of those hits were solo homeruns.
in the second game...we crushed them 17-3. mike pelfrey was a bit shaky, visably nervous at times. he threw 5 innings, 104 pitches, gave up 5 hits, walked 4 and struck out 3. pretty good.
and he got all the run support he needed from jose valentin. grand slam and a 3 run triple in the first and second respectively. every starter except franco and pelfrey had a hit.
john maine must be thinking...'why couldnt i get just two of those runs...'
glavine goes today. cmon we need a split here...
oh. and david wright's socks in game 1 at least. niiice. thats how all ball players should wear their pants...i cant find a picture though.

ok...lets take a minute to recap.
Double Header today- John Maine to pitch game 1, Mike Pelfrey (pictured right) to pitch game 2.
Henry Owens made his major league debut in the opener against florida. he pitched a perfect 9th inning, and got a standing ovation as he left the mound.
this is very exciting. all our young pitchers....ohhh
Jose Reyes will miss the rest of the series against Florida, and possibly the All Star game, after he was spiked on the hand during a head first slide into 1st base. I still don't get the head first slide, it seems to me that if you keep running, youll get there sooner...right? leaving your feet a couple steps early, and flinging yourself through the air doesnt seem like the fastest way to get from point A to point B.
Lima Time has expired. He was designated for assignment...finally. His Mets numbers:: 0-4 9.78 ERA. woah.
ok...thats most of what happened. lets go maine and pelfrey. lets go Mets.
oh yeah. i hope the games go well...considering i cant watch them...gosh, i hope i dont miss anything special.

Game: Mets 7 - Pirates 6...hallelujah!
FINALLY!!!
shaky game from glav. 2 come from behinds. hopefully this kick starts us.
2 absolutely solid innings from the offense...something that has been in hiding of recent.
A few notes:: Reyes goes 3-5, 2 SB, gets back to .300. Nady a BIG day 3-4, 3 RBIs (including the gamewinner) He actually got a hit with RISP! and of course...a big congrats to Billy Wagner for his 300th save!!
Great slide by Endy in the 8th for the go-ahead. just got your foot in there in time...nice.
Feel Better Cliff! Floyd had to leave in the fifth, with a mild concussion, after crashing into jose reyes on a fly ball. I dont know what the problem was, i assume after the night game, when cliff had to come rushing in to make a very nice catch, he wasnt going to take any chances and came in hard on this ball. Cliff just cant seem to get healthy and stay healthy...hopefully he'll be back after the break.

News: Lima Time...?
ohhhhh boy. Daily News is reporting Jose Lima will rejoin the mets...No word on the moves made to get him here, or if he'll be starting or in the bullpen.
From the same article...an update on Brian Bannister. In an Email to the Daily News, he says he partially tore his hamstring, near the siatic nerve. He said hes nearly at 100% and will begin rehab and simulated games soon.
hurry. we need you.

Lets just call this a slump.
Pirates 11 - Mets 1...
what else is there to say. This was the single most god awful game ive seen in a long time. (besides that texas collapse against the yanks) I have so much to say...all these witty one-liners. but i shall refrain.
Dear Willie,
Please, when you think...'hmm maybe i should take out my pitcher...nah ill give him a few more batters' hit yourself in the head with pedro's wiffle bat. over and over.
sincerely,
the entire mets fan community.
today glavine again looks to right the ship. and hopefully he can.
godspeed tommy, youre gonna need it.
oh and to everyone that called into WFAN before the game saying willie threw the yankee game.
shut up.

Mets lose by 9...ouch
Paging Dr. Rick Peterson...Dr. Peterson...'i think your patient is dead.'
...even 'the jacket' can't seem to fix soler. after the disaster in the bronx on sunday, i think its about time to close the books on mr. soler.
as the awfully witty commentators on ESPN were remarking on how he was afraid of contact...he just kept throwing low and outside, high, inside...anywhere but the plate...
HEY! you have 4 (cuatro) starting All Stars out there behind you...(well three...ones kinda in front of the pitcher) you can let the ball be hit...NOT to where E-Rod put his, but on the ground is ok!
tonight was an all around disaster. we put up 7...and lost by 9. ouch!
lets shake this off with pedro against those swashbuckling pirates.
oh wait. now pedro is hurt...
bring on mr. darren oliver.

Daily News: Pelfry May Get Chance
Even his trusty wiffle bat cant save him from this.
According to the Daily News:: Pedro will most likely be taking off until after the all star break, which I assume means they will put him on the DL to make room for Mike Pelfry. Looks like Pelfry may get the start in one of the games of the doubleheader Saturday.
Darren Oliver looks like he will get the start today against Pitt. Wow...of the 4 Mets games I've seen this year the pitchers have been...John Maine vs. Washington (loss), Victor Zambrano/Darren Oliver vs. Atlanta (win), El Duque in the Bronx (loss), and again Oliver vs. Pitt. (hopefully a win)
I must have good pitcher karma or something.
