Gil Must Go: Brutal Loss for Cardwell as 1969 Mets lose to dopey expansion team

Ouch.  This one is killer.

You can’t lose to a dopey expansion team with a dopier name (how are they not the Montreal Royals????).

8.2 for Cardwell, but he has himself to blame.  I can’t even hang this one on Gil.  He lets his starters pitch as he should.

We should probably start paying attention to the fact that Cleon Jones is batting .432.  The guy plays hard all the time and you can tell Gil loves him.

Anyway if I had told you the Mets would be 9-12 when you woke up on May 2nd you would have signed up for it.

Of course, no more expansion teams – back to reality and playing a real team like the Cubs tomorrow.
