    I wouldn't bring in Wagner either here, but the real point is that there is good reason to be unhappy - the bullpen just isn't very good these days.

    mota is the best of the rest, but Wagner has to be in here, get 2 innings from him, and get Myers out of the game..

    When/if the Mets get a lead. That's how you have to play it on the road unless you want to watch Schoenweis attempting to close a game.

    2 innings from Wagner never happens and it certainly isn't going to happen when he's got a "dead arm" or whatever they're calling it this week.

    And that is precisely why Wagner should've been in there.

    Oh, and fuck. 4 games? This pisses me off.

    Can someone send Mota some steroids if he gets caught it would be worth it to the Mets he gets kicked out of the league

    The team that blows the lead late is always going to be at a disadvantage going into extras because of the way the bullpen was managed since they were leading. It's even worse when that team is also on the road. They had to extend someone in the pen and Mota had pitched a good first inning.

    Yes, it sucks and he sucks(like the majority of the Mets bullpen) but it was the right play.

    I think it was the wrong play because after Myers, the Phils bullpen sucks, just like ours. So, match the good guy in Myers, then try to have our bad guys beat theres...

    this fucking team is going to kill us all

    i know i know the road extra innings rule,, but in certian spots, such as this, exceptions can and should be made..

    so e get a 3-2 lead and Sele or Showinsuck have to close?? oh well..

    plus if you put Wagner in there you still have an inning to get the lead then send him back out

    Wow – I give it to Willie…he knows when he’s had enough…knows when to fold em’. Once its time to go home – you just make the call to Heilman and that’s the end of it.

    I lost all faith in the Mets pen...

    Mota sucks... Last year he was good but this year he just sucks... Stop putting him in there, especially for 2 innings in a row. He has given up runs almost every game he has been put in...

    There isn't anyone in the pen that I fell can get the job done right now... I can live when I see Sosa and at times Wagner but everyone else sucks.

    How come the Braves and Phillies look like world beaters when they Play the Mets? And the Mets play like a last place team whenagainst them
