So we traded for Dan Kolb, and he sucked. Not learning our lesson, we traded for Dan Uggla, gave him a huge contract extention, and he has sucked. The obvious lesson is No More Dans! They never work! Danny Bautista didn’t work, and Danys Baez didn’t work, and Danny Heep didn’t work, and Dan Meyer didn’t work, and Dan Petry didn’t work. No More Dans!

Box Score

The game was not as close as the score indicates. The Mets led 4-0 after 2 and 6-0 much of the way; the Braves got a ninth-inning homer from Diory Hernandez, of all people, to cut it to 6-4, but never got the tying run to the plate.

I stand accused, on Twitter, of being a bad Braves fan because I am mean to the manager and the second baseman. I am mean to them there because I try to limit myself here to only fair statements, due to the Lockhart Rule.

Hey, anyone want to buy part of a baseball team?

Why must there be Mets? To make everyone happy that they aren’t them!

The mighty Padres were finally subdued, so tomorrow’s day off won’t be quite as torturous as I had expected.

Why must there be a June?
