Meet the Mets

Ike Davis's second MLB game wasn't as successful as his first, but I don't think anyone is complaining. The Met organization was 5-0 yesterday. Mike Pelfrey has thrown 19 straight scoreless innings. Jose Reyes picked up 4 hits and a stolen base. Good times, kind of. Ryota Igarashi is getting an MRI after scrambling weirdly for a bunt.

So, let's go back to Davis. Is he Olerud? Let's just let him be Ike Davis. Dave Singer is betting that Davis is worth the baseballreference.com sponsorship.

I really want to know where I too can get an Omar Minaya voodoo doll puppet.

Carlos Beltran is "progressing" but not ready to run yet. Luckily, Jerry has realized that GMJ is not a capable starting center fielder anymore.

Here's what contract stuff we have to look forward to this offseason.

Around MLB

The Braves rattled off a furious ninth inning comeback and beat the Phillies in the 10th.

Jamie Moyer's fastball is funny.

Some Marlin players actually like Scott Stapp's song. Those are good company men.

Cliff Lee won his appeal and his suspension was rescinded by MLB.

Bob Brenly has seen enough of Alfonso Soriano after the left fielder only got a double after admiring his fly ball in Monday's game against the Mets.

Joe Maddon's hoodie-gate has been resolved. Our long national nightmare has ended.

The Indians are starting to embrace their blogosphere. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer, I guess.

Outside of MLB

British Tory leader David Cameron gets egged. Fortunately, the assailant had no further "missiles" and was released.
