Great game all around today as the Mets took on the Giants in impressive fashion, ultimately emerging victorious by a score of 7-0. Pelfrey impressed, and the bullpen did its job (for a nice change) and the Mets got the win.
All-Star Coverage: Two Mets got slighted in not being picked for the All-Star Team: Jose Reyes and Johan Santana. Johan has pitched much better than his 7-7 record, and has a stellar 2.96 ERA, good for (a tie of) 5th in the league. He's also (tied for) 5th in the league in Innings Pitched, a combination which should certainly have propelled him past Billy Wagner and onto the All-Star Team.
Jose Reyes has the numbers to be in the Bronx next Tuesday. He leads the league in triples and stolen bases and is tied for 12th in batting average. He has a decent amount of walks and 9 homers and 38 RBIs from the lead-off spot. How Miguel Tejada is going to the All-Star Game instead of him is an enigma. (With superman Lance Berkman on his team, Tejada is not the sole Astro, which would solve the mystery.)
