Beltran now to the DL *cries*
So the only starting position players still healthy on the Mets are David Wright, Daniel Murphy (now at 1B), Luis Castillo, and Ryan Church (who just came back from the DL).
Holy crap.
And how is this team only 1.5 back of the Phils in the NL East?“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

And I'm thankful for that, in addition to the Mets grinding out some very gutsy wins! Especially because in addition to position players being out (for a loooong time in the case of some), John Maine and Oliver Perez (ok, maybe Perez isn't that bad of a loss) have been out and the bullpen has been running on fumes due to the replacement pitchers not having the gas to go that far in games.
The Mets have their own hospital ward booked it seems like.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

At least MLB doesn't think it's a performance enhancing drugSoto wasn't overweight; he just had a pot belly
June 26, 2009
NEWS-SUN PRESS SERVICES
When catcher Geovany Soto returned to the Cubs' training camp in March after spending several weeks with Team Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic, Chicago manager Lou Piniella said he thought the 2008 Rookie of the Year looked like he'd gained weight.
If only that was the only thing the Cub manager had to worry about.
On Thursday, Soto said he has been informed by the International Baseball Federation that he tested positive for marijuana at the World Baseball Classic.
Neither the Cubs nor Major League Baseball will penalize Soto.
MLB does not regularly test for marijuana since it's not considered a performance-enhancing drug.
Clearly, Soto's performance this season could use some enhancing.
He's hitting an embarrassing .227, and his power numbers are way down, as well.
In Thursday's dismal 6-5 loss to Detroit, Sosa didn't play the field, but pinch-hit in the ninth inning with the tying run in scoring position and whiffed to end the game.
Chicago's now lost four straight and is under .500 for a season that is rapidly slipping away.
Keep on Civin'

No wonder Soto sucks this year. He's stoned all the time!

At least he's doing a drug that MLB doesn't test for.

True that... but it'd be shame if he was suspended for sucking.
"Hey, Geovanny, that drug that is making you hit .227/.326/.370 (yikes, I didn't realize it was THAT bad), yeah, we're going to suspend you for taking it"“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

The Yankees and Mets looked stoned this past series. That was some ugly baseball.
I'm glad the Yanks swept and all, but I can't exactly get excited about it. The Mets are a disaster right now.

Btw, Albert Pujols has (as of before tonight's game) a stat line of .328/.450/.721 for an OPS+ of 207 with 28 HRs already.
Apparently he was thinking that he'd really just like back-to-back MVPs.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
