Chooooooooooke

You could say at leasr they hadn't blown the season after a half inning like last year but you'd be lying to yourself. Last year was like ripping the bandage off. Yesterday was like getting a bone rebroken because it didn't heal right the first time. I could moan about Schoeneweis and Ayala giving up those consecutive homers in the 8th. But that would diminish the pathetic choke of managing only five runs against Marlin pitching in three games. You want to hang some bullseyes? Jose Reyes . after the September he had last season, 2 for 13 against the Marlins was disgraceful. Especially because he is the motor of the offense. When he chokes, the Mets have no offense.

They did, in essence, nothing to make us think 2010 would be any better than 2009's nightmare. They got Jason Bay , true. But that was the bare minimum requirement. That and waving good riddance to Carlos Delgado . Replaced by the magical middle of the road nobodies, Dan Murphy and Mike Jacobs . Be still my bitter heart. That pair are hitting a combined 17 for 80 or an emblematic .212. Good thing it doesn't count. Yet. They signed no one else of any...
