Meet the Mets

Huzzah, huzzah. The Mets won a series for the first time this year. And for some reason, all people can talk about is the upcoming Jason Heyward appearance. 

Well, there is that ugly Jeff Francoeur slump to talk about. On balance, it's been a good season for Francoeur, but let's see what he has in him the rest of the year.

More lineup speculation, this time with Jerry thinking about moving Bay to the second spot.

Mike Jacobs accepted his assignment to Buffalo.

That Tom Glavine signing by the Braves looks pretty bad, doesn't it.

Around MLB

The Phillies are definitely the best team in Pennsylvania. This time coasting to a series victory over Atlanta.

Some good stuff from former Brave outfielder and legendary Met killer Brian Jordan. Jordan says that Chipper needs to work out more to keep those nagging injuries at bay.

Jorge Cantu is a Raider season ticket holder in the Black Hole.

The Yankees turned their first triple play in over 40 years last night. Meanwhile, A-Rod gets in a verbal scuffle with Dallas Barden.

Bryce Harper is a jerk, apparently.

Mark Buehrle on his way to Cooperstown?

Outside of MLB
