Lincoln

WTF? Why must you make me despise the entire bullpen outside of Big Money Cordero, who’s on pace for 24 innings this year?

And not to belabor the point but....

NYM 12 runs 12 hits
CIN 4 Runs 12 hits

Remember, few double-headers are sweeps

Look at how we’re exhausting Met batters. Game 2 is in the bag.

Where have you gone, Johnny Vander Meer?

All that running around the bases has got to tire them out

Cunning stunt, Dusty.

He probably should, but I bet he won't

With Belisle coming out in the fifth, I’m kind of surprised we didn’t see Affeldt.

WTF?!

I let my wife have the computer for 15 minutes, with runners on second and third and no outs as Votto had just doubled. And I come back with the Reds not having scored at all and the Mets scored 2.

Unreal.

Dusty's already writing in Jenny Hairston and Patterson in the 3 and 4 slot.

Are the All Star ballots out yet? Is Patterson on it?
