The New York Mets were beaten  last night, again, losing to the Atlanta Braves, 11-4. This makes it three straight defeats since sweeping the Yankees over the weekend.

Mets starter Mike Pelfrey struggled and didn't receive much help from his teammates. Jose Reyes reached base four times, aside from that, not much positive to take out of this game.

The Atlanta Braves continue to own the New York Mets and the Mets continue to display their mediocrity.Manager Willie Randolph caused a bit of a firestorm prior to the series by implying that the heat he has been taking is based on race. Sorry Willie, it is based on poor performance by the Mets. Since you are the manager, guess what, you take a hit for that.

I haven't jumped on the "Willie Randolph must go bandwagon" and I am not doing so now. But this thing needs to get turned around and quickly. The 2008 season so far seems to me like a continuation of the dismal end to the Mets 2007 season. That is not acceptable!
