Two pitchers, six letters -- fewest ever for a pair of probables? Or did Bill Lee once face a versatile Chin-lung Hu?

The only Mets game ever where the starting pitchers had a total of six surname letters between them was June 11, 2004.

The most letters? 25, on May 29, 1996.

Sadly, I knew that 'most letters' one off the top of my head.

I'm getting the sense that Dillon Gigi is htting the same rookie innings-pitched threshhold that did in the end of Niese's season last year.

I get the feeling he's going for the 2-out hits given up record.

This team would make for some damn fine jerky... because it apparently cannot spoil at all.

The Brewers. The Phillies. Then the Braves. What a scheduling treat.

Doesn't seem to bother the Nats who just took two of three from Philly and are leading the Snakes early on tonight.

Or he could be going for the most walks in one inning record ... or the most runs given up without a ball hit out of the infield record.

I stand behind my let's-release-Igarashi advocacy.

I realize it doesn't help things all by itself but it's not as though we're gonna retain the guy and he couldn't possibly have a record that couldn't be replicated by some fresh face.

In the KTE, G-Fafif called Shane the most annoying fucker in baseball.

He is the master of the understatement.
