I don't mean El Duq- er, Livan's pitches. I'm talking about the schedule. A nice first inning to start off the game, before Livan even threw a pitch, was just what the doctor ordered in the final game before the big battle in the coming month against some tough teams. He now has a 3.88 ERA. One who was fighting for the 5th starter job in spring training.
As nice as it was to pad the schedule, I'm sick of seeing the Washington Nationals. It's time to see what the Mets are made of.
David Wright kills lefties, but has done most of damage recently on the road. Three Philly lefties facing the Mets at Citi- something's gotta give.
Welcome back Ryan Church; two hits in his return from the DL. I hope they don't jerk him around again. Play the guy. If he can do some hitting vs the Philly lefties, it could springboard into better things the rest of the season and ease the blow of not having Reyes and Delgado during this tough stretch. It was really nice to see him patrol right field again.
Daniel Murphy hitting would be nice as well. He also had two hits today. He and Fernando Tatis have to come up big.
