What if I were to tell you that the Mets would set a club record by scoring 52 runs in 4 games. Is that something you might be interested in?
Yes, Bob! It is something I might be interested in.
Ah, I feel better when I do random shit on this blog. To the good news!
- The Mets have scored 14, 8, 14, and 16 runs in their last four games. I’m not going to pretend to understand why this is happening. My apologies, but I’d rather not act like I’m smarter than you just because I have a blog and therefore have an outlet to make up some ridiculous theory about why the Mets offense is suddenly unconscious. I’m young but I’ve seen enough to know that the only predictable thing about baseball is that it’s unpredictable. You can make an educated guess if that makes you feel better, though. (Don’t let Jason’s ineptitude deter you!)
- That said, Angel Pagan and Jason Bay’s contributions have been terrific. Bay must have made an impression with his grand slam last night because he was walked four times. That’s just odd.
- Isn’t it funny that Jose can go 2-6 and his average actually drops?
Tomorrow:
- I’m excited for this one. The irresistible force meets the immovable object when Justin Verlander faces the Mets white hot bats.
Lastly, the Mets aren’t gaining on Atlanta…but they’re gaining on a bunch of teams in the pack.
