A quick check of the NL at the 20-game mark. A few teams (like us) have since played a game or two but, just for comparison purposes, this is where their records after 20 games. Mets 11 - 9 Marlins 11 - 9 2009 ROY Chris Coughlin = .162/.205/.162 Phils 11 - 9 Rollins is out, Lidge has yet to pitch, Happ in now out Figueroa = 5 IP, 2 ER (ND) is his lone start of the season Braves 8 - 12 Four starters at or under the Mendoza line: Cabrera = .179; McLouth = .149; Escobar = .192; Glaus = .200 Nats 10 - 10 RS/RA = -15 Pitching is much improved: Livan = 31 IP 0.87 ERA also set-up man Clippard: 15.2 IP 0.57 ERA; and closer Capps: 12.1 IP 0.73 ERA, 9/9 Sv/Opps Cards 13 - 7 Brad Penny: 3-0, 0.94 ERA, 0.98 WHIP Cubs 10 - 10 Bullpen ERA = 4.99 Reds 9 - 11 Rumored Met targets: Aaron Harang: ERA = 7.16; Bronson Arroyo: ERA = 7.43 Brewers 9 - 11 Most runs scored/G in league (6.05) 4-1, +45 RS vs Pittsburgh; 5-10, -35 RS vs all others Pirates 8 - 12 Out-scored more than 2:1 so far (72/150) Padres 12 - 8 An 8 game win-streak took them from 3-6 to 11-6 Giants 12 - 8 Fewest runs (2.8/G) and baserunners (1.15 WHIP) allowed Rox 10 - 10 Half their wins courtesy of Ubaldo Jiminez: 5-0; 0.79 ERA; 1.049 WHIP DBacks 9 - 11 Justin Upton: .211/.302/.342 Dodgers 8 - 12 Manny out.

Not shown are the Astros (I guess because they haven't reached game 20). The Astros opened at 0-8, but are 8-3 since. God help me, stories of rumored Met targets in rocky seas get me so giddy. So giddy.

Harang threw his first decent game of the year last night. Granted it was over Houston, but apparently his velocity was up where it ought to be and he was getting the whiffs. A bad start could have gotten him bullpenned.

Yeah, I just missed Houston even though it was their 0-8 start then quick turn-around which partially sparked this idea in the first place. In the AL, the Yanx were lagging behind but finally finished their 20th game last night. Rays 15 - 5 Yanx 13 - 7 Jays 10 - 10 BoSox 9 - 11 Orioles 4 - 16 Twins 14 - 6 Tigers 11 -9 Indians 9 - 11 ChiSox 8 - 12 Royals 8 - 12 A’s 12 - 8 Angels 10 - 10 Mariners 9 - 11 Rangers 9 - 11
