Yep, only 14 left. These Mets have started the 17 game stretch like the 2007 version did, losing the first 3. The Mets are 6th right now in the Bryce Harper sweepstakes. The Mets now need to go .500 to win 70 games. It's not happening. FIRE OMAR.
Mike Pelfrey wasn't very good, going 7 innings giving up 5 runs, 4 of them earned. He gave up 2 homers, (both 2 run homers), and had a 4.44% swinging strikes. Pelfrey needs to do better to show that he can be a consistent #2 starter. John Maine could be a better option then Pelfrey and now replaces Bobby Parnell in the rotation.
The Mets got something going in the 9th, scoring 3 runs off of closer Mike MacDougal. Wright singled in a run with the bases loaded, Beltran hit into a run scoring fielder's choice, and then an error by their shortstop led to it being 6-5, with runners on second and third. But Francoeur grounded out. By the way, Francouer saw 16 pitches in 5 at bats, which is lower than his average of 3.38.
Tim Redding (2-6 5.52 ERA 5.28 FIP 5.50 tRA) takes on
John Lannan (9-11 4.08 ERA 4.91 FIP 5.63 tRA)
1:10 PM ET, Citi Field.
