Last night, the Mets beat the Nats 6-3, in a rather routine win over one of the worst teams in the league...
THE GOOD
Gotta get those wins, especially against the inferior teams... Another great night by Church, and 3 hits for Schneider...
Meanwhile, the guy we traded him for made a VERY overrated catch on Shirley Delgado in Centerfield, and managed to go 0-4 with 3 K's last night...
Milledge is hitting .245 now, while Church and Schneider are both over .320, and playing excellent defense as well...
Moises continues to mash the ball, now hitting .364 on the year... 2 more hits last night... He may be old... He may pee on his hands... But boy, can that man hit a baseball!!!
THE BAD
Reyes is mired in another slump, and I have to admit that I'm a little concerned about when we're going to see the 2006 and early 2007 Jose Reyes, because he's been noticeably missing for about half a year now...
Easley with a rough night, booting a couple of balls and going 0-4 at the plate...
THE UGLY
17 men left on base, including 6 by Reyes, which is actually a pretty "impressive" feat for a leadoff hitter!!!
And, I love reading quotes like this from team owners:
"The bottom line is that the team is not playing the way it is capable of playing. These players are being paid a lot of money and they had better decide for themselves to earn that money."
Especially when they come from good ole' Hank, who specifically made a point of praising some pitchers, including Mariano Rivera, who rewarded Mr. Hankie by blowing the game last night!!!

Mr. Hankie is indeed going to be very, very cranky if this shit keeps up with the cross-town rivals.
I for one am very happy to see it! LOL
And I too am concerned about Reyes; his bigass head just does not seem to be in the game on a consistent or even semi-consistent basis.
