Dickey wins his MLB leading 12th win last night as the Mets beat the Dodgers 9-0. Dickey goes 8 innings and fans 10. If he isn't the starter for the NL All Star team...it's a crime.

And the Mets take sole possession of 2nd place in the NL East, a full game ahead of the Braves. Still 3.5 behind the Nats.

Metes shutout the Dodgers again this evening, 5-0. Pick up a full game on the Nats. 2.5games out of first. :-) :-)

On another note, the Phillies are down 10 games now...and still in the cellar.

Sandoval beats out Wright for the All Star game...come on. :-) :-)

Two balls get past Duda in the first inning....he's killing us tonight. :-) :-)

Dodgers are throwing the ball around as well. :-)

Mets pissed one away last night and couldn't get the sweep...lost 8-3 to the Dodgers.

Not a great outing. Off today for some rest.

Guess the day off did us some good...beat the Phils tonight 11-1. Neise pitches 8 strong innings and Murphy has a game. And this puts the Phils 12 games back in the cellar. :-)

And the bullpen does us in yet again...piss away a 2-0 lead and now we're down 6-2. Looks like we're gonna give Cliff Lee his first victory of the year. :-) :-)

That was a crap game yesterday. With Dickey on the hill tonight, we at least have a chance to get the series win.

Mets come back against Papelbon in the bottom of the 9th to beat the Phillies, 6-5 and take the series. :-) :-)

Mets win 6-5! Dickey had an off night, but the Mets get a come from behind win in the ninth with a walk off RBI from Wright.

Man the Phils are having it tough this year! Nice comback win in the 9th to the Mets!

What is it with the Cubs? Santana give up 7 runs on 13 hits...he got rocked. :-) :-)

Mets beat the Cubs today 3-1 as Gee goes eight strong innings. We manage to keep hold of second place for another day. :-) :-)

Mets getting skull f#*&ed by the Cubs....AGAIN!! :-) :-)

46-40 and in third place, 4.5 games back...I thought we'd be 15 games back (How ya doing Phillies)...and having a fire sale. Very pleasantly surprised by the first half. :-)

:-) :-) :-)

LaRussa opts for Matt Cain as opposed to RA Dickey to start for the NL All Stars tomorrow. This is another complete slap in the face to the Mets. First Pablo Sandoval wins the fans vote over David Wright with numbers not even close and now this?? WTF?? This is total BS!!! :-) :-)

Doesn't make much sense to me either. Both Met players, based on their current stats, should have gotten the starting nod.
