Shame is Castillo is hitting like .390, and he's been on of the few (along with Tron, Gato, and Tatis) getting runners in with base hits
.
The fact of the matter is yesterday just upset me more than any loss, not because the pen blew up for the 2nd straight night (they won't be lights out for162 games, they are human), but because of all the easy runs David keeps leaving on 3rd, even when the defense is conceding a run, and Santana not getting anyW's
- I'm not even overly concerned with the SP anymore, because Santana and Pelf will be the rocks in the rotation, and Maine is obviously coming around(Ollie is a mess).....its some of these decisions that Jerry has been making that is NOT helping the team. JOHAN SHOULD HAVE PITCHED THE 8TH AND THIS WOULDHAVE BEEN AN EASY WIN.
- Yeah, this team goes as Wright/Reyes go, but when your down by 1 with two men on and no outs, you bunt them over. The Marlins did that, and both runs scored,the Mets didn't do that, they scored ZERO runs. Then PH's Castro who has 2 hits for Santos who was sitting out in the bullpen area.
- Then one night sits Church and Murphy vs a righty starter just to give Sheff PT, and PH's Church in the game vs a lefty. Its been wayyy too manysituations like this for the whole month of April already, they are lucky to even be 9-12 right now.His decisions have single handidly made this go from a 5-1homestand to a 4-2 (won;'t say 6-0 cause Ollie is a POS).
- The team has been finding new ways to lose, this Mets team won't win unless Wright/Reyes pick it up, because this has been an obvious hangover (shame isWright is hitting well over .350 late in seasons but its those runners he strands that have cost the team). No excuse for not offering Manny a contract thisoff season, he wuld have alleviated some of the pressing and made this lineup fearful.
As for this weekend, Maine and Ollie are Philly killers and the Phillies starters are one of the worst in the entire division (they MUST win 2 of 3),difference is Phils can come back late whenever they want.

You can't bunt with David Wright up, Mez. No matter how bad he is playing his name is David Wright.
Considering how TERRIBLE he is right now, he cannot even make contact its as if he can't read breaking ball pitches right now, you need to help your teamwin and bunt them over.
