Mets drop second game of doubleheader

Remember to check out our homepage my team rivals

The New York Mets dropped the night cap of yesterday's doubleheader, 7-1  to the  Cincinnati Reds. Starter  Mike  Pelfrey  gave the  Mets  a  chance  going  six  innings and  allowing two runs.  However, the  Mets offense  must  have  shot  their  load  in  game  one  since  they  made  Reds  starter  Bronson  Arroyo  look  like  Sandy  Koufax in  game two. The  Mets  managed  just  one  run  on  four  hits  against  Arroyo.

As I have stated all year long, and many of you disagree, I just think this is who the 2008 Mets are, a little better then a .500 club. They are a very talented team with some major flaws; aging players (Carlos Delgado, Moises Alou, Pedro Martinez, etc), no set up man in the bullpen, a lack of clutch hitters and some questionable gloves in the field. It seems every time they are poised to make a run, they come up with a stinker, as was the case yesterday.

Yes, I still love my team, and yes I will be with them regardless of what happens. But I truly believe we should get used to seeing more of the same all season long...I would LOVE to be proven wrong.
