Sometimes you have to make lemonade.
The Mets Police were sitting there ready to praise Pelfrey. I even had nice things to say about Willie. Imagine – not overmanaging and giving Pelfrey a little rope to try for the complete game.
The runner gets on and Willie brings in the closer, also the correct move.
Then Wagner blows it and you can feel the entire "Howie Rose 40,000" lose their minds.
Now don't get me wrong, the Mets Police hope the Mets win every game, but sometimes you need to make lemonade.
It was all right there. A 6th loss in a row, the worst loss of the season. Omar might have made the move. Maybe I could have skipped work today and gone to see Lee Mazzill's New York Mets!
Maybe they would have worn blue hats with the pinstriped uniforms on a beautiful sunny day! Maybe a gorgeous brunette would sit next to me and ask if I'd like her 'extra' beer.
Ah yes all was going to be perfect!
Then Carlos goes and ruins it. Mets win, Phillies lose, the ace goes today, Willie escapes again. Thanks a lot Carlos.
