New York Mets 2013 Banter

[kelmac07]

Mets lose to the D-Backs last 5-4, and of course, the bullpen blows another one. We'd probably be 10 games over .500 if we had a decent bullpen. Thanks Sandy!!

[kelmac07]

Wheeler pitches another "road gem" as the Mets beat the D-Backs 4-1. This kid Flores can hit.

[kelmac07]

Mets beat the D-Backs today, 9-5 and take the series.

Hated to see Cody Ross go down in this game.

[Dave128]

The reports are saying that Ross will be out for the season and, depending on the severity, there may be the possibility that this is career ending. I hope that's not the case.

Bring on the Dodgers. Would love to beat up on them a little.

Especially since Kershaw pitched last night...means we won't face him.

Mets lose to the Dodgers last night 4-2. This after we had a 2 run lead. If we could only protect a lead...and the bullpen was worth a damn...and...

[Dave128]

I watched the game until it was 4-2 then turned it off because I thought it was a lost cause at that point. Turns out I was right. It was a late game and I was fighting falling asleep, but didn't Majia lose the lead before he was taken out?

[kelmac07]

He did lose the lead Dave. I was just speaking in general of the entire season so far.

[kelmac07]

Mets drop another one to the Dodgers, 4-2. The offense was non-existant and Harvey was very un-Harveylike last night.

[Dave128]

The first inning or two Harvey looked really good. After that it was pretty down hill.

[kelmac07]

Bullpen blows another one as we get swept by the Dodgers, 5-4 in 11 innings. I'm getting to that point, again, where I'm about to stop watching. They are p*ssing me off BIGTIME!!!

We could have won every game of this series...we had the lead in each game and blew it each time.

Mac, seriously?
They're a sub .500 ballclub, playing the HOTTEST team in baseball, on the road, with their best player on the disabled list.
They're lucky the Dodgers didn't find a way to beat them 4 times in 3 games!
You should be thrilled they played them as close as they did.

Dom, that's my whole point. Being a sub .500 club with a shoddy outfield and a non existant bullpen...if we had even an average one of both, we'd be contending for a wildcard position. Alderson KNEW the bullpen was f*cked and did nothing to correct it (short term or long term).

[Dave128]

I'm with Mac. These gaems are so very frustrating to watch. I'm getting tires of watching them lose in the late innings. There is no reason that we should lose a lead so late in every game. We miss so many opportunities because these guys keep watching perfect pitches whiz by them without even pretending to swing. I can't count how many times we have bases loaded and no outs yet fail to score a run.

[kelmac07]

Mets beat the Padres last night 4-1.

[Dave128]

Wheeler pitched a real nice game.

[kelmac07]

Mets beat the Padres 5-2, Niese looked good. Still hanging onto 3rd place.

[kelmac07]

Mets dropped the last two games to the Padres...Saturday, 8-4 and today 4-3.

[kelmac07]

Mets beat the Twins today 6-1. Gee pitched another great game.
