It was a weird moment when I sat down on Wednesday evening and started thinking. I have been watching baseball since about 2001. I aspire to be a storyteller years from now. Someone who is knowledgeable and respected. But no matter how good the storyteller, and I am not too good yet, one needs material to talk about, no? This is the 2012 season. I was worried, at the beginning of the season, that the [...]

The Mets (64-72) lost to the Cardinals (74-62) by the score of 5-1 on Tuesday evening at Busch Stadium. 0-14 with RISP so far this series will win you no games. Harvey was the man on the mound for the Mets and looked like he was uncomfortable out there. Although, admittedly, the only Met that looked comfortable pitching out there tonight was Familia. Harvey got through five innings, allowing six hits and walking three. He allowed [...]

The Mets (59-69) defeated the Phillies (61-67) by the score of 9-5 tonight at Citizen’s Bank Park. Shoppach was the man tonight in a great game against the Phillies where the Mets rallied to come back from defecits twice and put a four spot up in the tenth. Chris Young started tonight and struggled over 4.1 IP, allowing all 5 of the Philadephia runs off four hits and three walks. He struck out two, but allowed [...]

The Mets (58-69) defeated the Astros (40-87) by the score of 3-1 today at Citi Field. RA Dickey furthered his journey for the Cy Young today with another brilliant start. He picked up the first RBI for the Mets on the day too – I guess he was worried that he would not get any support on his own. The final line: 7 great innings while allowing only five hits and a single walk. The only [...]

The Mets (57-65) lost to the Rockies (47-73) by the score of 6-2 on Tuesday evening at Citi Field. “This was the worst ball game the Mets have played all year – fundamentally.” – Keith Hernandez That sums it up for you. Do you really want to read on? Well, alright, your pending high blood pressure. Chris Young started for the Mets and kept them in the game. He pitched the first five innings without allowing [...]
