No, I'm not talking about Jon Niese, who pitched well last night. Niese had been on a roll in his last several triple A starts and was ready for a promotion to the big leagues this time around. This kind of pitching could be something we should get used to seeing, unlike that of remove-the-S-and-place-a-V Nieve. I'm talking about the Mets offense.
10 runs? Three homers? David Wright finally has come to the realization that Omir Santos passed him in the homerun department and does something about it. Can we see more of that please? Also that play late in the game where he made a nice pickup on the backhand- and then actually fired the ball to first with authority instead of lazily flinging it over. More of that, please.
Despite pitching in a non-save situation, an issue with most closers, K-Rod's ERA has now climbed over 2.00. It's only going to get higher folks.
A win overshadowed the decision to put Gary Sheffield on the DL, when he insisted he was fine. The Mets now have 13 pitchers to 12 batters on their roster. The insanity continues.
