-Lugo VS Koehler
-Cespedes hits walk off. (I seriously believe Cespedes is turning Piazza-like. His ability to hit home runs on command in big spots is something I havent seen in quite some time. He was not this player before coming to the Mets. Thanks Long!)
-Colon tomorrow. Matz Thursday
-Cabrera named NL player of the week
-Mets tied with Marlins now. Still 2.5 back!
LGM!

Too bad we gave up Herrera for the corpse of Jay Bruce.

Definitely. You can see Flores improving vs RHP as he gets some opportunities. Would be asinine IMO to keep playing Loney there over Flores.
Too bad we gave up Herrera for the corpse of Jay Bruce.
If we are going to complain too bad they didn't value Murphy enough to resign him. Take him off the Nats and have him in our lineup and the Mets are probably battling for first place instead of WC.
Biggest problem was he didn't have a position this season. Now with injuries he has. Who were you sitting in his place to start this season?
Yeah I don't trust the BP so much lately.
There's really zero upside to playing Loney at 1B at all. In the very least we can play Flores at 1B every day for the next month. He has been hitting righties over the last week or so. Maybe he's adjusted finally.
Yes.. Except TC loves Loney too much (vet).
4 for 4.
We need him, Cab and Cespedes to lead this charge. What a pickup by Sandy

Can they stay together for one freaking month? That's not a bad lineup.
The whole team changed because of Reyes.
Imagine if Granderson is still hitting leadoff..
That was brutal. I thought for sure he was going to be legitimately injured. We really caught a break there for once.
That was bad but let's not be rash.

Yeah the way this season has gone and the way he was holding his arm when walking off, I was guess separated shoulder or something.
Like you said, nice to finally have the odds go our way for a change.
I thought the same thing. I can't believe he's still under .200.. it feels like he turned it around 2 months ago and has been way better ever since.
July he was about as hot as any hitter but he has cooled off some. But it does feel like he contributes a lot more now regardless.
