Opening Day Mets vs. Florida
Posted by admin in CitiField, David Wright, Florida Marlins, Fuck the Yankees, Johan Santana, New York Mets, Opening Day, Philadelphia Phillies, Predictions on April 5th, 2010
Mets win, the Mets win! The sensational (not yet) Mets are 1-0 and like usual we dominate on opening day. Against a pitcher in the Marlin’s Josh Johnson, who normally owns us (now 7-1), the Mets looked impressive in front of a sold out CitiField.
Newcomers played well and David Wright went yard, hopefully both of which are signs of good things to come.
Johan Santana is looking like the Cy Young Award candidate that we predicted he would win, he will win, this year. With run support, 7 runs, Johan Santana could be the best pitcher in baseball. He has the advantage of pitching at CitiField, which is where home run hitters become sacrifice-fly hitters.
Yankees blew there opener against the Red Sox. Mets are 1-0 and the Yankees are 0-1. That feels good. Yankees victory last season over the Phillies earned them some love from Mets fans, because as much as we love saying Fuck the Yankees we would much rather them winning over those Phillies. Most Mets fans dislike our division rival much more significantly than even the depths of hatred we show towards the Yankees.
Mets Mets Official 2010 Baseball Season Predictions:
Mets win the division!
Johan wins the Cy Young
Wright finishes in the top 3 for MVP voting.
Mets Get Swept by Phillies.

Season Can’t Get Any Worse
This is gross. Mets can’t score runs.
We just got shut out again.
Johan Santana should be doing the shutting out. Instead he is letting up homers. 2 runs is all it takes to beat a team that doesn’t score.
Mets are in a Free Fall.
All Star Break can’t come soon enough.
It Really Sucks When an Old Man Beats You

Jamie Moyer embarrassed us today.
On the bright side, it is Independence Day and we can all get drunk and forget about today.
Happy 4th of July!!!
Phillies Distance Themselves
Posted by Señor Met in Philadelphia Phillies on July 4th, 2009
The Phillies beat the Mets today.
All I have to say is this is an important series. The Phillies suck at home so lets not be the team that helps them turn that around.
Luckily, because Philadelphia has been so futile at home they have not run away this division. They could easily be up 10 games right now, instead the Mets are floundering around .500 and are within striking distance of the World Champs.
Deja Vu at CitiField
Posted by Señor Met in Philadelphia Phillies on June 11th, 2009
Deja Vu all over again at CitiField. Just Like in Game 2 of this Series
Mets have Lead.
Mets blow Lead.
Extra Innings.
Phillies Blast Home Run.
Game Over.
In this game, Luis Castillo scored all 3 Mets runs and Carlos Beltran had all 3 RBI’s. The Mets bullpen – save for Francisco Rodriguez – has not been the lockdown – best in the Major Leagues – bullpen that everyone had pumped up before the season. That is for sure.
Chase Utley Home Run in Extra Innings Hurts
Posted by Señor Met in Philadelphia Phillies on June 10th, 2009
I really hate losing to the Phillies. Especially when we let it get away.
It was only one night after the Mets had a memorable win at CitiField against their rivals they’ve owned all season – the Philadelphia Phillies. But on this night the rivals returned the favor.
The top half of an extra inning Chase Utley put his team ahead with a solo blast. The Mets had no answer.
It is just to bad, because the Mets let this game slip away. We were winning 4-1 with only a few innings of baseball left.
We need to hang in there and scrape out another win tommorrow. Hopefully time is healing all wounds fast. And I am not just talking about the injury ridden lineup, but how much this game sure hurt.
CitiField Mutiny as Johan Santana Wins Slugfest
Posted by Señor Met in Johan Santana, Philadelphia Phillies on June 10th, 2009
Johan Santana had two strikes and the tieing run in scoring postion. Bunt sign called in via a dizzying display of hand swipes and ear pulls and nose twicthes by the third base coach. All that shenanigans is not really needed, obviously Johan Santana is gonna bunt.
Obvious to everyone but Johan Santana.
The ol’ catch’em with their pants down by their ankles trick, fake a bunt and swing for the fences – a double will do – and tie the game.
That’s ballsy, that’s beautiful baseball, that’s the NL’s best pitcher.
Beltran, Wright and Church all had home runs. Phillies had 4 as well. 7 the most ever in a game at the homer unfriendly confines of CitiField. 4 ties the most home runs given up by Johan ever.
This is gonna be one of the most memorable games this season.
Mets Sweep Phillies
Posted by Señor Met in Philadelphia Phillies on May 8th, 2009
Mets Sweep Phillies
Carlos Beltran, David Wright and Jose Reyes all told Jamie Moyer it was about time he retired. Over 46 years old, Moyer got shelled by the Big Three’s homer happy bats.
Basically, Mike Pelfrey won another game getting his usual run support.
K-Rod got his 4th save in 4 days. In those 4 days, we swept both of our rivals the Phillies and Braves.
While the Mets have 4 consecutive wins. They’re over 500 for the first time in awhile, only 1/2 game out of first place. Yes, the Mets are making things happen.
Meanwhile, Mets can sit back and watch the whirlwind that is happening all around the league: Yankees lost 5 in a row. Their Cheater, A-rod, is coming back from injury. Marlins have cooled off and are now in the middle of the pack in the NL East. Dodger fans are all fealing scammed. Boston fans are trying to tell the whole world their two recent championships aren’t totally fradulent.
Delgado Has Wheels : Johan Has Speed
Posted by Señor Met in Johan Santana, Philadelphia Phillies on May 6th, 2009
1-0 HUGE FUCKING WIN
- Delgado Scores From First on a Throwing Error
- Johan Throws 73 of 101 Pitches for Strikes
- Phillies Crumble
Carlos Delgado Safe At Home
Pulse of the Mets:
Ollie in the pen seems to be working. He hasn’t been in a game in a few days and the Mets have won 3 in a row.
Beltran is batting .388. For the first time this year he didn’t get on base, nearly breaking the John Olerud record for consecutive games reaching base. Is John Olerud available to pinch hit if we need him?
Mets are now back at 500. 13-13 and 1.5 games back of Philly with the Marlins in between.
Bullpen is dropping the hammer as of late.
Walking Home the Winning Run is Not a Good Decision
Posted by Señor Met in Philadelphia Phillies on May 2nd, 2009
Let me repeat that.
Walking Home the Winning Run is Not a Good Decision.
It is never a good decision to beat yourself.
You ever hear the expression, make them beat you. Well, when you walk a bunch of guys in the bottom of tenth inning with the score tied, you put yourself in a bad position.
But you still have to make them earn it.
Unless of course, you Walk Home the Winning Run. Sean Green did exactly that. He has now lost a couple of games lately with very piss poor relief pitching.
Oliver Perez was still terrible, even against the only team he has had a good history with. So he can’t beat the Phillies, the pathetic Nationals, and for that matter anyone else this year. How many more starting chances does he get? Put him in the bullpen.
Fans sure came out to watch this anti-climatic ending to a baseball game. Attendance: 45,069 in total which is 103.3% of regular season capacity at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia.
Let’s win Sunday and take the series. We truly need to win Sunday.
