I consider tonight a must-win. Getting swept in Arizona is unacceptable.

From Heyman @SI_JonHeyman: #phillies said talking to #rays about werth for prospects, then sending prospects to #astros for oswalt. on si.com soon. You make that trade to get Oswalt you obviously think you have a shot, but wouldn't you be better off keeping Werth?

Jose needs to take a lesson from Vince Coleman and not let outfielders kill him at second. If he wants it that bad, he can try to take it two pitches later.

Yup, I know he gets saved for something closer to a game situation, but I can't remember the last time Carter pinch-hit with a runner on base. But now that the runner is on second, Thole's a fine choice.

Jose Reyes taking special effort to congratate Oliver completing the 12th. The Mets at least taking this personally.

Glad that's all sorted then ,

I retired to bed as Dessens was finishing his nights work , the wife was at JFK picking up her Mom so I fell asleep to the strains of the D-Backs radio voices. Wife got home around 1:30 and I think the game was still on the radio , although it may have been a nightmare.


Box score is ugly of course, Wright, Davis and Bay with 16 at-bats and 10 strike outs between them.

Yes, keeping score. But I would never wear black to a Mets game. Blue hat, Wright jersey. The d-bags whose seats we acquired spent a good amount of time waving at the camera so I'm sure we had some screen time of some sort.
