Yeah, this lineup that we got going on today is, um, interesting. Damn extra inning games crushed our bullpen so we had to bring up extra arms to help this week, so now our bench hitting is wtfwhoisthisguy utility-types.

Oh well, least we won one in the series.

At least you have an excuse. The Rangers had three errors in one inning and they were all our big-money guys.

True, but with the way you guys hit, 3 errors a game is still something you can bat your way out of.

In addition, Ronny Cedeno played shortstop in tonight’s game for St. Lucie and went 0-for-4. Earlier this week, Terry Collins said he expects Cedeno to rejoin the Mets in Miami this weekend.

Cedeno has been on the disabled list since April 21 with a strained intercostal muscle.
Young is expected to make 4-5 rehab starts to build arm strength. If a month from now he can come up and be anywhere close to the pitcher he was last year... sheesh.

N Jenrry Mejia will be reevaluted in 4 starts too. I guees if Youngs ready, Mejia stays in the minors or come out from the bullpen.

So I come back after I finish finals to find out that Carl Beane is dead, there's something going on about Beckett and golfing, the Red Sox won one in their last nine, and Baltimore and Nationals are still in first.

It seems like I missed some pretty depressing/exciting times. wtf baseball

St. Louis is scary good and Berkman is reactivated tonight.

Quote:
Simply put, St. Louis has been the best offensive team in the National League so far and it hasn't been close. The Cardinals rank first in batting average (.287), on-base average (.357), slugging (.467), wOBA (.362), and wRC+ (132). It's been an absolutely ridiculous start for the Cardinals offensively.
The Braves will have it tough, but I'm thinking 2 of 3 with St. Louis perhaps winning Sunday.

We haven't really played any good teams yet aside from Cincy so it should be a good series. You guys don't have a bad offense yourselves.
