The Mets lost yesterday but they did not look terrible doing it. This is not to say they looked good, but things could have been worse. While the Mets never had the lead in this game, Martinez did not pitch terribly. I would rather forget about the first inning but then he turned it up a notch.
Daniel Murphy is looking good. I am hesitant to say too much about him since it has just been a couple of games he has played. When the Mets first brought up Nick Evans, a lot of people were ready to give him the starting job. While he has been okay, he has not been the immediate superstar some people were claiming.
I was not even too disappointed in the homerun the Eddie Kunz gave up. I think this kid is going to be an asset and while, arguably, it put the game out of reach, it was not the hit that drove in the deciding run.
What is most frustrating about this loss is that it was to the Padres. The Padres are not a good team and after a dismal road trip, it would have been great to see the Mets sweep the Padres; now, obviously that cannot happen. Hopefully, with Santana on the mound this afternoon, for a day game, the Mets will be able to take two of three from the Padres.
Let’s Go Mets!
