Now That Is More Like It

Big win tonight as the Mets played well all around. Big Pelf again pitched a beauty lowering his ERA to 1.50 by throwing 7 scoreless innings. He also picked up his 2nd win. Just like in his first start Pelf just abused the lower portion of the strikezone with his sinking fastball. He also showed less nerves tonight and more confidence than in past starts. He is a much different pitcher now than this time last year when he was struggling as the 5th starter. The kid has nasty stuff he just needs to put it together which so far this year he has been doing.

David Wright was basically David Wright hitting a homerun and driving in 5. In my opinion he should have been MVP last year and if not for the Mets collapse he probably wins it. He plays the game right and has fun doing it.

Also want to say a big welcome back to Dirty. It is good to have you back man. Just stay out of the cabs. He makes the bullpen so much better. The only good thing to come from his injury in 2006 is Omar was able to somehow steal Ollie away from the Pirates as part of the Roberto Hernandez for Nady trade.
