Johan Santana

Johan goes today for the Mets against Derek Lowe of the Braves. To me it seems like Lowe should be a Met and Ollie who knows where. Well baseball can change quickly and now I will root against Lowe which never was in my plans. That's baseball for you. Enjoy the games and lets go Mets. Should be 8 straight with Johan.

Sweep

The Mets have swept the Pirates and make it 7 straight. A well played game but Sean Green worries me a bit. After a great start he has really struggled. To me it seems like the problem in Seattle he was overworked in the beginnning now the workload is beginning to take its toll.

5 Straight for the Amazins'

The Mets have downed the Pirates at a score of 7-3 capped off by a 5 run eighth inning. They continue to rack up wins and Jon Niese pitched wonderfully giving up 2 runs in 6.0IP with no BBs. Today they hope to continue their success against the Pirates at 1:10. Lets go Mets and lets make this 6 straight wins.

Big Pelf

Today at 7:10 is game two of Mets and Phils with Big Pelf going for the Mets. Pelf has looked good after coming back from forearm tendinitis. The Phils will send Jamie Moyer. Lets take game two and lets go Mets.

Johan's Gem and Greinke

Johan now has a 0.91 era after shutting out the Phils for 7 innings and whiffing 10. The Mets won 1-0 after Feliz's error off a Carlos Delgado hit ball. A good pitched game gotta tip your hat to Chan Ho Park as well as Johan, offense might need to score a bit more but a well played game.

In other news Greinke has won the Pepsi Clutch Award and rightly so. Though Johan also deserved it Greinke has pitched better(sorry guys). Well deserved hats off to Greinke.

Catchers Pirates and Sweep

The Mets have swept the Braves in the brief 2 game series.

Johan goes today for the Mets vs the Phillies so lets go Mets. Johan has won the pitcher of the month award.

Catching seems to be problem for the Mets. Personally, I think Ramon Castro should be the starting catcher period. He can hit for power about 15 hrs a yr. That would make the position an advantage. Omir Santos has his moments, but isn't major league ready. I mean pinch hitting him in the 9th for Castro? C'mon Jerry. Start Castro Schneider def backup and send Santos back to the minors.
