Pedro cost me a pound of fish. He needed a good beating and so did the Mets. They have gotten way too arrogant with their big lead. His gimme double play he forgot to turn proved he was being lazy and wasn't mentally prepared to pitch. I guess I can't blame him.

Part of me likes seeing the Red Sox win and keep the Yankees 4 back in the loss column. I love the Mets but a 12 game lead in a terrible division leads to boredom for the fans and I would imagine the players. The games mean absolutely nothing. They have put themselves in a situation where we get to wait around for months for the playoffs. Right now my attention has just turned to rooting against the Yankees, that is how boring it has gotten.

The Mets need to tinker with the roster and get another pitcher anyway. If Pelfrey works out and they get another pitcher they will be set for the playoffs. Especially with El Duque. Pedro might be the #3 come playoff time.
