The Good & The Bad. But Mostly the Bad.

The Mets drop the first of a three game series in Atlanta.

The good thing is, we never gave up trying to win that game. The bad thing is, we also never game up shooting ourselves in the foot in an all out effort to lose that game. Which obviously, we did. Also in the bad column: we're 20-46 at Turner Field.

Another bad thing is that Kaz Ishii is stinking far more than pitching well. There is simply no excuse for walking the pitcher with the bases loaded. All he had to do is throw a freaking strike, and he couldn't manage that. Disgraceful.

Another good thing is, Manny Aybar actually looked pretty decent, allowing only one walk with 3 strikeouts in two innings. The bad thing is, the infield behind him did not look so good. Wright and Reyes really need to get the errors under control.

Finally, and for me this was the worst thing: one of my favorite ballplayers of all time apparently idolizes The Big Fat Idiot. Fran and Ted, thank you very much for letting me in on that. You both suck.
