Disappointing
This was a very disappointing season. Not jsut because we lost, but because it seemed like the team jsut wasn't playing with all their heart. Did they think they could roll over the Phillies?
Now we head into Atlanta. Different announcers were saying thaat if the Mets won 4 out of 7 that they would be sitting on the division. Now they need to fight to keep their lead.
We have to wake up in the Georgian sun if we are going to keep up lead!
Come on guys, let's do it!!
Let's Go Mets!

Need to win!
Okay, it was a successful weekend against the Dodgers, but we lost the first against the Phillies. We need to take 2 of the next 3, or, more preferably, all 3! We do not want them gaining any in this series.
Pedroa looked good in his last rehab start. Let's get him hope in time to be eligible for the Post-Season!

Exciting and scary win!
The Mets won 7 to 6 in the bottom of the 9th after giving up the lead to San Diego in the top of the 8th. Thankfully, a few well placed hits were able to give us the 2 runs we needed!
2 more to go. Tonight it is Peavy against Lawrence. This is Lawrence's former team and it is the first time he has faced them. Let's hope he can show them his nest! 8) I want to see 5 in a row!

Cleaning Up
We swept the Nationals this weekend in a very nice way. We have now had 5 or more runs in 9 of that last 10 games! Let's keep this hitting going! The next thing to focus on is the pitching. It has gotten lax recently. Losing 10-7 is not a good thing. Next we host San Diego. Let's go for another sweep! We are do for a nice long winning streak. :)
Pedro gave up 2 unearned runs in 5 inning yesterday. He is looking good and will hopefully be up before the end of the month. He better be so that he would be eligible for the post-season!

Disappointing Loss
Okay, any loss is disappointing, but it is even more so after you had a 5-0 lead early in the game. Then a 7-4 lead. And then to give up the tying runs in the 7th and the lead runs in the 8th were unearned due to errors! This should have been a sweep. Our pitchers need to hold it together and we have to avoid those costly errors.
Onto Washington. This is another team we need to either take 2 out of 3 or sweep. Let's Do It!

Scoring again!
It is nice to see them scoring again! Their pitching has been a bit scary though. Sele got a lot of hearts racing in the 9th, but Wagner was able to clos eout the 10-8 victory. How about that though? 5 runs in the 1st and 5 runs in the 9th! Talk about bookend scoring.
We also had 5 stolen bases to add to the majors leading team total! 2 by Reyes to keep him 10 over the next contender (J. Pierre).
We won and now we go for the sweep. We haven't swept the Pirates in Pittsburgh since 9/18-9/20 in 2001.

They earned it
A good win by the Mets last night. They beat the Pirates 5-4. It would have been nice if we gave up fewer runs though. Other than the solo shot from Beltran the runs were earned through well placed hits and good base running. They had more chances that I wish they capitalized on, but it will hopefully be a godo stepping stone to get them back on track. they have the talen, they jhave to get it together if they want to have a chance in the post season!

Should been a sweep
No, I don't mean by the Marlins! We should have swept them. Wagner's blown save and another blown lead on Saturday. The looked better on Sunday and were able to keep it together. That was a fun last inning for the Mets on Sunday at least.
They need to keep that last momentum going. It is a shame they had a day off after that.
Oh well, onto Pittsburgh. Let's show them what real baseball is! :D

Belated Congrats to Glavine!!
Seems I posted this in the wrong blog. Ooops! Sorry!
Tom Glavine gave up 2 runs with 1 walk and 1 strikeout over 6+ innings to earn his 300th win last night. He is 1 of only 5 lefties to reach this milestone. He is tied with Grove at 300 and will likely move into 4th all-time for lefties. I believe he is the 23rd pitcher to reach this milestone, but people are welcome to leave comments telling me I am wrong. :)A big CONGRATULATIONS to him!Let's Go Mets!!

Tough luck
We lost the first to the Braves last night 7-3.
We can not let that happen again! Let's all root for your team to come back and win this series. We need to get the bragging rights back!

A Bummer for Glavine!
Sorry for not writing, it has been a hectic week. I was at the game on Sunday. It is a shame it had to end early since it was an exciting game to watch. Of course the Mets were up 5-0 so it had to be exciting. :D
The Mets had Glavine's #300 in their grasp and they blew it. Better base running by Delgado, more opportune hits, and a stronger bullpen was needed. Glavine pitched very well, giving up just one run in 6 innings.
He'll have to wait until Sunday. Let's work on winning the next two to take the series!
