Through 4 innings tonight...the Mets offensive struggles continue. We have two hits, and Wright has them both. :-) :-)

lets hope we can break the slide soon.

Mets drop another one...we have not won since the All Star break. Guess a second half collapse is going to start a little earlier than normal this year. :-) :-) :-)

The bright spot is that we are are still ahead of the Phillies (who are still in the cellar) by 6 games. :-) :-)

Second half collapses usually start in the second half, Mac. :-)

Even when Jason Bay homers, you don't give him any credit!
If you were looking for a bright spot, that was it.
If the Mets are going to do anything, Bay has to be the right handed bat they desperately need.

BTW, after all the Omar bashing, surprised Sandy isn't getting any grief here.
He had one job to do in the off season, fix the bullpen, and that, IMO, is the Mets biggest weak spot.

The bullpen is terrible. They are going to have to pull the trigger on a trade before the season spirals out of control.

The Mets bullpen sucks. Period.

But we usually wait til September to fall apart...not July. :-) Bay gets no respect from me...for the money we paid/pay him..he has produced ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! Complete waste!!

And I do agree...Sandy did absolutely squat to fix the bullpen. I am at least going to give him til the trading deadline before I start to bad mouth him. :-) :-)

Hey...we finally win one. Wright (2 HR, 5 RBI) and Dickey (13th win) both have good games and the offense finally wakes up.

Santana gives up three runs in the first...he just hasn't been himself since the no-hitter.

Mets lose to the Dodgers 7-6...good news ias that the bullpen only gave up one run in 6 innings...the bad news, Santana gave up 6 in 3 innings. :-) :-)

Valdespin's hr was nice to watch.

Met lose another one to the Dodgers today, 8-5. WTF is Collins doing bringing Dickey in from the bullpen in the eight??? :-) He is tied for the ML league in wins and you bring him out of the bullpen??? In my eyes, this is a MORON MOVE!!! If you are hurting for relievers that bad...call up some AA/AAA kids, they can't do any worse that what's coming outta the bullpen now. Come on man!! :-) :-) :-)

At 47-47...the Mets are in danger of dropping under .500 for the first time in a few months. And to think we were 6 or 7 games over .500 for this long. At seasons beginning, I'd thought we'd be 15 games under by now.

Santana takes a trip to the DL.

For all the talk about how well the Mets are doing this year, believe it or not, they had a better record this time last year, than they do now!
On this date, last year, the Mets were 1 game over .500.
Don't worry Mac, there's plenty of time for the Mets to get 15 games under! :-)

Mets give up 5 runs in the 12th and lose to the Dodgers 8-5. And Bay strikes out to make the last out in the bottom of the 12th...batting .195. :-) :-)

And we drop a game under .500!! :-) :-)

Only 14 more to go, Mac! :-) :-)

:-)

:-):-):-)

Mets bullpen implodes in the 10th as we lose to the Nats 8-2. :-) :-) Of course, Tejadas error didn't help matters.

Given that they were playing in a swamp by then and Bernadina was barreling down on him, it was going to be a tough play. The end of the bullpen did implode though. The Nats were due one since their bp did the same thing a few games ago against ATL.

Breaking news.........the mets bullpen sucks!
