The Musings and Prophecies of Metstradamus...:
Nice of Brian Stokes to throw Frankie Rodriguez a save chance ... his first since the all-star break. Because we wouldn't want Frankie to get rusty.And we certainly wouldn't want him to go as long without a save as Angel Pagan went without a home run.How great was that grand slam that gave the Mets a 9-5 win? Wallace Matthews had nice things to say about it. What's next ... giraffes flying by my window?

A batting order with Angel Pagan batting leadoff, Murph batting cleanup, Scott Sullivan hitting 6th followed by Alex Cora, the enemic Brian Schneider followed by the pitcher is hardly frightening.

The Mets came close to pulling a rabbit out of their hat tonight after falling behind 6-0 to the Diamondbacks after two innings. They came up a run short, but came so close to tying and winning the game if not for another baserunning blunder by Angel Pagan.

Finally, the Mets were scoring some runs, and they were going to surely win tonight, barring another bullpen collapse that was all too common last year.
However, thanks to Frankie Rodriguez, all is well in the minds of Mets fans...
