The Mets Piss Excellence

Mets slight upgrade from the C-Squad last night beat down the Diamond backs 7-1 today behind Jorge Sosa's pitching and Ruben Gotay's 3-run blast. How much of a genius is Mets pitching coach Rick Peterson? Sosa is a Braves reject that even the "great" Leo Mazzone couldn't get straightened out. After he was dumped, the Cardinal's own (self-proclaimed) genius Tonya LaRussa and, Mr. Nepotism himself, Dave Duncan, failed to brainwash him, then sold him for a box of twinkies. Mets take a flyer on him (I've always wanted to use that phrase) and besides one bad game against the Braves (I guess he didn't want to appear to be TOO re-habbed, lest the Braves try and get him back) he's been as steady as this guy. A certain hitter (superstition again) continues to rake and the outfield trio of Newhan, Johnson, and Chavez win a game the Mets probably had no business winning.

On a side note, as both of my readers know, I have absolutely NO love for the Yankees or Doug Mankevichkrzyescshkigluskiwicz, but after this, I do hope that he's OK enough for me to continue hating real soon.

Perez and Davis on the hill as Mets try and continue pissing excellence in winning series.
