Well……After my dumb post about being 7 games up, the Mets were swept yet again by the Phillies. To make matters worse, they also lost the first two games to the Nationals!

Once again, pitching failed them. BUT, it wasn’t only the bullpen this time, it was a combo of …. Get this … STARTERS … and … ERRORS! Can you believe THAT? ERRORS cost the METS wins!

Lawerence sucked. We all saw that. Throwing the ball around the infield made it worse! What was it? Like 6 errors in the game? I am not sure since I got PISSED and finally walked away from the game!! Game 2 against the Nationals, and another 4 run lead, Maine SUCKED!  What, another 4 errors? AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!

Sorry, I am normally a calm quite sort of person. This stuff TICKS ME THE F… OFF! Little league baseball with MAJOR LEAGUE salaries!

What does this all mean to Mets fans? It means that the Mets were only 1.5 games ahead at the start of tonights game. THANK GOD the Mets won. The Phillies were still at a 0-0 tie last I saw.

[UPDATE] Extra innings between the Phillies and the Cardinals! This was at 11:18 pm EDT. Let you know more if I am still here!

Tonight, Pelfrey started very well. He even left the game BEFORE giving up the lead! HOLY CRAP, HOW DID THAT HAPPEN? Sosa came in and did a good job. [It’s about time the bullpen did something!]

Getting down to the nitty-gritty, the Mets are currently 2.0 games above the Phillies. The Phillies are only 1.5 games behind the Padres. If ANYONE thinks that the Mets are an automatic in the playoffs, THINK AGAIN!

Should the Phillies win the division, and the Padres continue to win, the METS ARE OUT! Simple as that!

[UPDATE time=11.28 EDT] The Phillies just lost which leaves the Mets at 2.5 game lead! Long way to go!

There is 4 games with the Marlins now. Who ALWAYS tends to beat the Mets? Yup, it’s the Marlins. The ONLY saving grace is that we have Martinez and Glavine starting the first 2 games. Trust me, that is NOT a gaurentee to win! Just some extra hope!

Stick with me people, more on the way about my favorite team!
