Thankfully, the Mets have an insurmountable lead.  If our best pitcher needs a break, we can afford to put him on the DL.  Lose three of four to the second place Phillies?  No problem.

I could do without the beatdowns though, and man did Pedro Martinez get beat down.  It didn’t stop with him though.  At least the bats didn’t waste anything.  All the offense managed was a measly four hits.

Tuesday was more the same except for Jose Reyes.  He went yard three times and drove in all four Mets’ runs.  In the meantime, Orlando Hernandez completely fell apart.  By the time we got the pitching going on Wednesday, the Mets gets shutout by some sub-.500 pitcher.

Finally the Mets got the job done yesterday.  Carlos Delgado went nuts and hit two homeruns.  Carlos Beltran went four for five with a homerun of his own.  John Maine evened out his record at 3-3 in the 7-2 win.

Next up is the Rockies.  No sweat.
