A Tough One to Swallow and an Overdue J.J. Putz Rant


I didn’t get a chance to watch the game today. I did get a mid game update – Mets beating the shit out of the Pirates 5-0 – that had me doing double fist pumps while driving.

Later, when I got home and turned on this Mets Blog to find out how the game played out, I was shocked. No devastated. Mets blew a 5 run lead. Against the Pirates of all teams.

Putz is getting ripped everywhere. He sucked the other night, the other other night, and the other other other night, but it wasn’t until this recent sucking that I have lost all hope that this guy was gonna live up to his billing.

Earlier today I heard rumors the Mets were gonna get Putz some save chances, record a couple saves to up his trade value, then unload him to fill a need. Who wants this guy now. He is untouchable – in the not good way.

Until then, Jerry, Please, Please DO NOT let this guy pitch in any even remotely important game moment. Mop up duty is ok, but even then keep him on a short leash b/c he can’t get anyone out.
