David Wright made amends for his tumultuous Padres series with a strong 3 for 5 day at the plate, and a walk-off two run home run in the bottom of the ninth that won the game (5-3) and the series for the Mets.The home run overshadowed another failed attempt by the Mets, specifically the bullpen, to hold a lead for their ace. No run support and no HEART by the bullpen.... again. Yes, I now question the HEART of the so called bullpen. It is tragic at best, and I know that we have a good number of games left, but in order to take advantage of those games, something needs to wake these guys up. I don't want to hear about Wagner's injury. An injury is an opportunity for someone, but it appears no one wants to step to the plate and claim their territory. Today's home run was a band aid that will cover a very deep problem that could resurface in a very important upcoming series. Those boys in the pen need to do the cliff notes version of soul searching.
Beltran woke up from his nap with a 3 for 4 day at the plate, and Daniel Murphy is shaping up to be the surprise of the year (not including Delgado's resurgence).... I'm telling ya Mets fans, enjoy watching the next coming of NAILS!
On a side note... I want to hang myself when I turn on the television and see Brett Favre everywhere. Last time I checked, Brett Favre did not sit at the right hand of God and has not brokered world peace; so what is ALL of the fuss? Is this REALLY that important.. or as important as the media is making this?? And the media is disrespecting Joe Namath by calling Brett 'Broadway Brett'.... There is only one Broadway.... maybe call him Fulton St. Favre or Cross Bronx Brett... leave Broadway to the venerable Namath.
