90? We should be rooting to avoid 100. This team is honestly that bad right now.

We can't really expect him to be perfect.

A Florida error and a ground-rule double by Daniel Murphy gives the Mets a 3-1 lead.

In the top of the fifth, Anderson Hernandez followed an Omir Santos double with a single of his own. We ask you to huddle in your basements and listen for the siren. Keep plenty of fresh water nearby and ration carefully.

There was a wild pitch, Santos started heading home, but the ball bounced back more quickly than he expected, and he scrambled back to third base, but not in time.
Mets now up 7-1. The Marlins are looking like a very bad team today.

Wait... what happened? Did Stokes not pitch to a batter? The only way that happens is if there's an... injury.

You know, no matter how many 2009 Mets come and go, it's opening-day Met Sean Green who looks like he's going to run away with Most Thoroughly Baked Looking 2009 Met.

Five pitchers in a 10-3 game that was 8-3 after 7.
Jerry loves his match-ups. Or maybe he was just trying to get the bullpen some work.

The Mets need to go 5-28 to avoid 100 losses. (I think they should be able to do THAT!)
They have to go 15-18 to avoid 90. That will be tough.

When they started to play poorly in July I said they'd go 71-91, it looks like that was optimistic.

If they win one third of their remaining games (which is a pretty bad pace) they'll end up 69-93.
I think your 71-91 seems pretty reasonable at this point.
