    With Berkman set to miss quite a few games, it would be particularly helpful for Pence to figure things out ASAP.

    The Mets are the only team in the NL that strikes out less than us. They walk a lot more though, as does most every other team in baseball.

    We do, however, lead the NL in turning DPs.

    I'm pretty sure that is accurate, considering we lead the NL in both categories.

    True lol I was thinking they may work the count a bit more and try to wear Johan down but that just wouldn't be there style lol

    I could not believe when I saw that Wright had only 5 homers this year! Citi Field is killing his power but hey he does lead the league in hitting or close to it so hey...

    Lots of LOBs in this game so far, particularly for the Mets.

    Hampton is doing his best Ortiz impression tonight but If I remember correctly he has always been a nibbler...

    Speed kills... Santana fielded the ball well then thought the could catch him... by the time he realized he couldn't, too late.
