Pedro - Sweep In Review

Good Afternoon Everyone!

                Well after a just freaking brutal night at work and an abysmal weekend of Mets baseball I wanted to get a post up in regards of my thoughts of the entire series vs. the Braves. Overall I’m going to come out and just say this; I hate the Mets bullpen except for Parnell. Byrdak and now Edgin. Everyone else has either just been inconsistent (Ramirez) and others are just total bums (Batista and Rauch) I just want to see Rauch DFA’d and The Mets to just freaking call up Acosta at this point, and I’m sure we will end up seeing Mejia up here as well as the Front Office will try and pass these guys off as bullpen help instead of acquiring some real help (Myers, Street, Lyon).

                The Mets bats were actually decent the 1^st two games of the series and in all reality if Chris Young had given us a decent outing we might win game 1, as for game 2…that’s the one that was a real kick in the balls. The Mets manage to scratch out 7 runs on a day David Wright gets the golden sombrero with his 4 k’s and Dickey gets hosed on a iffy call where Martin Prado was awarded 2^nd base despite the dipshit being tagged out while he was taking a stroll back to 1^st base . The Mets looked to be in position to steal game 2 and I liked what Bob Geren did in trying to navigate his way to Parnell  (Yes Bobby did blow the save) I however, didn’t agree with a Bobby Parnell  5 out save attempt though I guess the Ramirez alternative wasn’t to enticing to Geren so hindsight is 20/20.

                I’m not going to even discuss game 3 all you need to know is this:

Johan Santana got lit up..Again

CB Buckner is a douche bag umpire with an inconsistent strike zone

Ruben Tejada is good

No one likes Andres Torres despite him having a good series

And the Mets bats got shut down by a fat Ben Sheets (Really? If this was 2008 it’d be understandable)

                In conclusion, The Mets did the one thing they couldn’t let happen by getting swept in ATL and Watched the Braves  Hug it out all over them (seriously wtf is with all the bro hugs in ATL?) Hopefully the Mets will bounce back in Washington and can salvage something from this abysmal experience and we get some damn pen help and a 5^th starter ….LETS GO METS!
