Tough to lose to the Braves again, especially in that fashion. Hudson's a tough match-up, no question. Didn't expect to win that game, but to lose by suddenly imploding and giving up 7 Rs, reyes E - basically regressing and not playing like the '07 Mets - is tough to watch. It's like every time we face the braves, a different Mets team takes the field, one that forgets that they are the better team.
I do also have to say that Perez + Pelfrey both as starters worries me. Assuming Pelfrey develops into the solid starter everyone projects, I understand he will take some time to develop pitch control and confidence. The problem is that along the way we're going to rack up Ls, and this is not necessarily a luxury we can afford with: (a) Perez in rotation, and (b) resurgent Braves right on top of us. Hopefully the two of them can put together enough solid starts to keep us in it, and Pedro returns healthy on schedule. Otherwise, we'll probably need to dump Perez and trade for another starter.
But man, it really, really sucks to be a Yankees fan today! Two A-rod homers and they still blow it, thanks to Mo.

I guess the key is for me to insult Perez - he throws a gem of a game every time I do.
Man that guy sucks. Bad. You hear that, Ollie?
While we're at it, you know who else sucks? Delgado and Wright. Big time. Couldn't hit a HR if their lives depended on it. Might as well drop them down to AAA.
Los Bravos runs scored vs. runs against is basically 1:1. I just don't see a team being able to put together a season much above .500 if they maintain that ratio, which bodes well for us.
