He Is What We Thought He Was
The Happy Recap: Mets 4, Cubs 0
Mike Pelfrey was tremendous once again, but Jose Reyes' 4 for 5 night was the big story of the game. We knew he had it in him, and if this is a sign that Reyes is back, watch out National League!
TH
E GOOD: Reyes tripled, drove in 2 runs and rose his batting average about the Mendoza line for the first time this season. Mike Pelfrey's looking good too, pitching 7 innings of 3-hit ball for his 3rd win to go along with a "Pedro Martinez in his primelike" 0.86 ERA. Plus he's now gone 19 consecutive innings without allowing a run. Wow!... And although we knock on this guy quite often, Fernando Tatis smoked his first homerun of the season in the eighth inning to provide some insurance runs for the very shaky KRod.
THE BAD: KRod doesn't make anything easy, does he? Come on... who out there thought he was going to blow the lead after his second walk of the inning? And how about that middle of the Mets lineup - Wright, Bay, Francoeur, Davis going a combined 0 for 13. Where's Frank Catalanotto when you need him?
THE UGLY: Mets fans are starting to get on David Wright for his lack of perceived clutch hitting. The numbers paint a very ugly picture and the CitiField boo birds are starting to make their voices known.
