Decision time approaches for Castillo
Luis Castillo is expected to make his first start at NYSEG Stadium for the Binghamton Mets tonight. Castillo is 1-for-8 in three starts with the B-Mets and 2-for-28 in 11 rehab games between GCL, St. Lucie and the Binghamton Mets. Let me do the math for you: that's .071.

He was diagnosed...

Manuel even spoke to John...
Is Wagner Done for rest of the Year???
The Mets and Billy Wagner say no, that he is not finished for the year, despite what is looking like a very ominous elbow injury. I'm no doctor, but the fact that both Wagner and GM Omar Minaya described the inflammation as actually getting worse, that's not a good sign.The immediate plan is to leave Wagner on the shelf until the swelling subsides and then have another MRI...

While the Mets continue to search for a closer, not all games will be won in the 9th inning. Newly acquired Luis Ayala made his Mets debut in the 7th inning. Oliver Perez didn't have his best stuff tonight but found a way to limit the damage to a three run third. Perez ran out of gas in the 7th when he put runners on the corners while only recording one out. So many times this...
