Back Where They Belong!!

With moving into a new house, working a new job, not to mention STILL unpacking, it's been way too long between posts. Hopefully I can return to a somewhat normal posting schedule now for all 3 (2?) of my readers......Anyway, off we go.....

Starting with yesterday's messy 7-3 loss to the braves ( I refuse to capatilize them.....yes, I'm that immature) Pelfrey's start was up and down. Nice velocity on his pitches, but where is the control he showed in spring? Once again larry "chipper" jones (seriously, this guy is 36 yrs old or so now, MUST we keep calling him chipper?) had a big day against the Mets. He alone may be responsible for 80% of my Tums consuption over the last 12 years. Put me down for 5 during yesterday's game. Credit to Hudson for shutting down a Met offense that had 32 hits in the last 2 games. That and I'm sure he cheats. Nice effort against the braves pen in the 9th but too little too late by then.

Now to today's game. I did not get to see one little bit of it, but it sounds like Reye's was his usual pesky self on the base paths, and Beltran had ANOTHER 4 hit game raising his average to .385. I know it's way to early in the season to start MVP talk, but Beltran looks even better than he did last year. Keep this up and he may be the first Met named MVP. Glad to see that Oliver Perez got himself under control after his 2 2/3 innings of 7 walks and one hit batter in his last outing. His line today: 6 2/3 9 hits (scattered of course) 9 K's and ZERO walks. The happy recap of the ballgame can be found here.

Met's go for the series win tomorrow. john smoltz against Tom Glavine.
LET'S GO METS!!
