Didn't expect this...

Gotta be honest, i did not expect this...

It's really frustrating watching a team where the individual players on offense play well, but when they need to play as a team they can't do crap. Something big needs to happen to get these players off their asses and realize that they are in the major leagues. I think there is something wrong in David Wrights head. I mean, he acted like a little baby when Mike Francessa said that he can't hit in the clutch and night in and night out he has every chance to redeem himself and all he does is ground out, pop out, fly out, strike out, or hit into the double play. The rotation needs to be scared straight, Johan can't carry this team, especially when they only score 1 damn run for him!

Mets vs Reds game 2 post game

Well, a win is a win. This game was a battle through and through. I love the start Delgado is off to. Personally i think that if he can be consistent the offense will flow nicely. Delgado is such a force in the middle of the line up and the team feeds off of him for sure. Big Pelf started out slow. He was a little sloppy and got beat, plain and simple. I really liked how he rebounded and put up four innings of zeros. He fixed the problem and thats very encouraging to see. The pen gave us a bit of a scare and brought us back to feeling like we were watching a game from last season. K-Rod obviously did not have his stuff tonight. He was a little wild, and looked like he was trying to throw too hard at times but he never gave up, and thats the difference between this years pen and last years. K-rod came undone a little but he never gave up and thats really why the Mets won this game.

The game ball goes to... K-rod for not giving up when the walls were crumbling around him.

Citi Field, First game

Well, finally getting a chance to update. Going to the first game ever in Citi Field was quite an experience i must say. Obviously most people were more interested in the ballpark than the game, but that was expected i think. The place is beautiful, plain and simple. It really feels cozy without feeling cramped. One complaint that many people have made is that, the park does not really have a mets feel. There is defiantly not enough mets stuff around the park. Between the green seats and the Citi signs everywhere, it's hard to feel a Mets vibe. Anyway, check out these pictures of the park and the game. I sat in the second to last row in section 520. Thats the promenade level (upper deck).

Getting that first win under our belt was a great boost for team moral. The game felt scripted with Johan pitching beautifully regardless of the weather, Sean Green getting it done, giving some fans a reason to forget Heilman as soon as possible. JJ throwing some wicked pitches knocking hitters on their asses and finally K-rod getting it done in pure closer fashion. Obviously, the offense was sleeping the whole game, aside from Murph, the team fell asleep with their bats on their shoulders. Tonight hopefully we can see some high power offense to give Pelfrey some support. I really think jerry will have a hard time getting Sheffield into the lineup because i really think Church is going to break his ass this year to show everyone he's the man for the job. I wouldn't mind seeing Sheff get a pinch hit opportunity tonight, im curious to see if he means business or if he's just along for the ride.

Anyway, lets enjoy the game tonight and ill be sure to write up a post game report.

LETS GO METS!
