Add the Lowly Pittsburgh Pirates to Our List of Rivals
Posted by Señor Met in Atlanta Braves, Carlos Beltran, Pittsburgh Pirates, Washington Nationals on June 6th, 2009
According to the Pirates, the Mets have “Zero Class”
Yea, we sure do have “Zero Class”, but not because Beltran said the Mets getting swept by the Pirates was embarassing, but because the Mets getting swept by the Pirates is embarrasing.
Beltran is right on, we are way better then the Pirates. Just this week, the pirates traded away their best player, Nate McClouth (who happens to be on my fantasy team and now I have to drop him because he is on our bitter rival the Braves), like they do every year. They have not had a winning season since like Bonds left to get closer to his Steroid supplier.
So we already have a rivalry with:
- Yankees
- Phillies
- Braves
- Marlins
- & to a lesser extent a few others like the Red Sox
but now we get to add a new one with the NL Central Perpetual Doormats. And nothing gets a sub .500 team interested in playing their absolute best more then a rivalry against a big city team.
btw, we lost on Saturday to the NL East Perpetual Doormats by a lot, 7-1. That is also embarrassing. I know I can’t wait to get back to NY.
Mets Score 8. Lose by 4.

After getting swept out of Saint Louis by Albert Pujols, who connected off of sub-par pitching all week, the Mets are lucky to be heading to a must needed series against the National League punching bag – Washington Nationals.
We are a pathetic 6-9. We had better show up big time against Washington because we are already 5 games behind the Marlins and the season just started three weeks ago.
In more inspiring news:
Even if the Mets don’t score a whole lotta runs for Johan Santana, at least he still shakes their hands.
At Least the Pirates Swept the Marlins

because the Mets sure aren’t showing any pulse against the Cardinals.
We lost the momentum in the come from behind debacle to open this series with the Cardinals and so it is no surprise the they beat us again 5-2. Today’s loss had very little fireworks except for letting Pujols drive in a couple of runs and their starting pitcher Joel Pineiro shutting us down for pretty much the whole game.
We need to salvage a win in this series.
And our bats better be ready to help out Livan b/c Kyle Lohse is no slouch.
This Is What We Know So Far

The Marlins are real good.
The Nationals are real bad.
The Phillies have a really good addition in Raul Ibanez.
The Braves are simply not that interesting
The Mets are really inconsistent.
and The Yankees gave up 14 runs in one inning.
Also…
Johan Santana could be the starting pitcher in 4 straight games in a World Series and let up 0 runs.
Yankees Wang is 0-3 with an ERA of 34.50.
Livan Hernandez is fierce.
The new Yankee Stadium gave up 20 home runs in its first four games. The previous record for a new stadium was Oakland’s 16.
Statistically the Mets offense is supposed to be scoring a lot more given all of their scoring opportunities.
btw Mets back at .500 after offense sputters again in loss to Brewers
