Cautious or not, there are not too many pitchers that are sharp when off more than their regular rest.
This lineup despite the return of Bay is still not able to sustain any thing when you have a hole in Ike, Bay and Murph w/no power.

It hasn’t been often that the Mets were so thoroughly defeated on both sides of the ballgame hitting & pitching.

I watched the entire game and the only highlight I had was Quintanilla’s hit to beak up the no-no. Kuroda pitched a great game. It happens It was just having to watch Cano hit 2 2-run HR’s with that “Oh yeah look how far I hit it” as he dropped his bat to start rounding the bases that irked me.

At least the positive is Santana said he felt fine.

Mets face Hughes who happens to be coming off his best start of the season. Maybe Mets can help Hughes follow that with his worst start of the season.

LGM!

Ugly, ugly game. Got beat by talented geriatrics. I cannot even believe Andruw Jones is still around. Didn’t even recognize his fat face at first.

Ramirez looks crappy, but Ron professes faith in his abilities. Funny how little stardom means in AA or AAA in comparison to MLB.

Only way to wipe this painful chapter in M-Y competition is a win today.

Terry Collins should not be second guessed for his concern with Johann Santana. He realizes that no pitcher has ever really recovered from the surgery that Johann needed. I doubt that any Met fans could have imagined how well he has pitched but then again Johann has no doubt worked harder on his rehab than anyone else before him being the warrior that he is!

A guy like Santana will overcome losing some zip on his heater and always find a way to win!

This team crushes waist high 88 mph fastballs.Santana could not keep his pitches down last nite.One more thing.Were Manny Acosta and Elvin Ramirez separated at birth?Has anybody seen them in a room at the same time?They appear to be the same person

A line from my favorite John Denver song, “Some Days are Diamonds Some Days are Stone.” No further comment needed.

Why is it a bandbox for Skanks and not us? Are their guys physically stronger than ours?

I cannot blame Collins for being too careful considering everything.Imho there was too much emphasis on the 134 number.He only threw an extra 19 pitches.If 19 pitches is going to destroy his shoulder than being cautious will not make a difference.I still think Collins did the right thing.As far as messing up the rotation, we would have lost tonight anyway because nobody hit.Right now we really miss Tejada, Turner and Baxter.They were scrappy and tough outs.Bay and Davis are sucking the life out of the team and the fans.No fun watching guys who never hit the ball out of the infield.Other than Wright and Duda there are too many AAAA players in the line up right now.I hope we can bounce back tomorrow.One other thing.I AM SICK OF INTERLEAGUE PLAY!!The whole thing is way past it’s fresh date
