We can contemplate how many other ways we can lose. Don't be surprised when the Mets eventually lose on a walk-off catcher's interference call. What else can we do?

At least there were no missed bases, no broken thumbs sliding into a base, no blown calls by the umpires, no black cats running to first base in front of the runner...

What was Omar thinking? they might as well send him to single A, no way they can trade him, he's under a big long term contract, but consistently puts numbers in the L column. If all they need is someone with a pulse to fill that spot in the rotation I am sure it will be easy to find. Very true, and he has had that attitude since spring training.

I hate to admit that I never laughed so much reading about a Mets loss. But why not? This season has been such a joke anyway we may as well share a few laughs. We have no hope of the post-season this year. The kind of baseball this team has been playing this season we can either laugh or cry. With recaps like this, it's fun to laugh. Why the heck not? What else can we do? Great recap Ed. I hate to admit that I never laughed so much reading about a Mets loss. But why not? This season has been such a joke anyway we may as well share a few laughs.

That is how they break the hearts of fans. Get off to an awful start, battle back to within reach, and then give up the whole thing on a play that makes the headlines for the opposition. The GOAT is obvious. No controversy today, it is Perez for killing us from the start with a classic awful performance. GOATS for the 2nd half: Parnell, Pelfrey, Cora, Perez, Pelfrey, Santana, Niese, Green, Pelfrey, Pagan, KRod, LHernandez, KRod, Parnell, Pagan, LHernandez, KRod, LHernandez, Parnell, Tatis, Misch, Perez.

How else can you explain such an inability to throw strikes at his age. He is 27 !!!Of course the Mets have to be blamed for signing him as anyone who has watched him in the past knows he refuses to throw strikes.

But Pagan's inside-the-parker got me to jump up. That was a thrill, and Pagan was sprinting all the way. Him and Castillo both had good games. I'm not sure how it sounded on TV for anyone watching, in the stadium it sounded like Pedro got a nice ovation, even from most Met fans. Definitely some scattered boos though. I really thought Francoeur was going to tie the game...and then that happened. I was at this game also, and I was seriously thinking about walking out in the 1st inning, that’s how upset I was.
