Sucks that the offense seems to be clicking right now while the SP is shitting the bed. Now -that- feels familiar from the last two years -- one being hot while the other is cold.

What on earth makes you think otherwise?

We only came in third in the league in runs scored! That was totally a problem.

I hate it when GMs put a bandaid on the most obvious problem and ignore other things. I think the Mets have enough this year but they really should have bagged another SP.

It doesn't mean that the games right now don't count and that they will obviously catch up to the Marlins.

It's flukey shit happening to a good team facing a very hot playing over their heads team.

Keep that in mind.

He had a 4.18 ERA last year. That's hardly something to scream at him about his maturity level about.

Maine looked fantastic at first, then lost it. Second start since coming back from injury, I'll certainly give him the benefit of the doubt. Anytime your offense plates five runs, you have to be happy with that. Bullpen was sparkling as usual. This is the best looking losing record team I think I've ever seen ;).

You're talking about the guy who's just thrown his second start after injury and had pitched very well with the Mets prior to the injury, right?

Also, you shouldn't be here, you will go crazy every time the Mets lose.
