Well…that happened. Johan Santana finally had his run support, and in a rare moment of WTF-ery, he practically gave it all away himself tonight. Taking a 4-0 lead into the 4th inning, he quickly gave up 2 runs, but then managed to hang on until the 7th, until Michael McKenry blasted a 2-run homer over …

Miguel Batusta started the game but left after two quick innings. Jeremy Hefner camewin and pitched decently, but he did allow two runs. The real issue with today’s game was the Mets could not get anything going against Jays starter Brandon Morrow. Morrow was excellent today, but the Mets lineup was hurting with David Wright …

Terry Collins was right…twice. First, he stood up for Miguel Batista, saying he was going to get many more chances to prove himself as a starting pitcher. Well, tonight he did more than prove himself, throwing 7 scoreless innings of 4-hit ball. He stymied the Brewers tonight, with Tim Byrdak and Bobby Parnell taking care …

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Ike Davis is royally struggling right now. Through 29 games with the Mets this season, Davis has almost twice as many walks as he does hits. The numbers are just scary to look at.He has just 17 hits and a whopping 31 strikeouts in 102 …

In what could be called a rather dumb move, I boldly told Twitter that if Mike Nickeas saved/won this game I would “eat his glove…with salt”. Welp…pass the salt, folks. While Nickeas may not have driven in the winning runs (I’ll get to that in a bit), he was a vital part of the Mets’ …
