Mets 10, Brewers 4: Brews Pounded, Dickey Still Rearing To Go

PrintR.A. Dickey wasn't quite as strong as his last time out against the Phillies, but he lasted seven innings and didn't walk anyone in a 10-4 Mets win. Jose Reyes, Luis Castillo, David Wright, Angel Pagan, Jeff Francoeur, and Henry Blanco each collected at least two hits -- Francoeur went 4-for-5 and Blanco 3-for-4 with a walk -- as the Mets pounded out 16 hits and drew eight walks as they shamed Randy Wolf, Jeff Suppan, and the rest of the Brewers' staff.
The Phillies lost to the Marlins so the Mets are back to within three games of first in the NL East.
The Mets are in San Diego beginning on Monday night at 10:05pm EDT when Hisanori Takahashi takes on Kevin Correia.
Poem by Howard Megdal
Mets bats explode, giving their all
On behalf of the man with the dancing ball
Francoeur had four hits, by math quick and dirty
I believe that his average is up to .230
But mauling of Suppan makes this fact quite certain
Revenge is not best served four years after curtain

Neither did I.
He had a decent outing, and it’s nice to get a win from it.
Can’t ask for much more.
I like Dickey’s personality a lot.
He's excited about Dickey, he says.

How could you not be?
Dickey makes everyone raise their game
Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but Jerry abuses the privilege.
Wincoeur! Extension!

Plus a vesting option. Might as well give him one of these
The following should definitely appear on Jeopardy...

I was thinking of the vest when Jeery still brought in K-rod after it was 10-6
He wasn’t worried about blowing it or giving Rod some work. He wants the option to vest so the Mets are hamstrung for an add’l year after they fire his ass.
</conspiracy theory>
It's mind blowing.
There’s nothing untoward about keeping Rodriguez out of a game like this. It’s not sleazy, it’s just common sense not to put yourself at a disadvantage.
Still and all, Frankie’s putting up some nice numbers this year.

You know that wasn't the point, right?

He took a few innings adjustung then did what he haf to do to win
If you give him decent support Dickie is powerful enough to win

last 2 runs
he was pitching with a 4 run lead like you should, make the guys hit it, if they get some runs then bare back down

It's extra nice seeing Jeff Suppan getting the loss, even though it's about four years too late...

I like that we are adding on runs in the late innings
I feel that we have done that a lot this year. We are up 1 or 2 in the seventh and by the time the other team is batting in the 9th we’ve stretched it to 3-5 runs. It’s always nice playing with a bigger lead in the late innings.
Mets, Dickey Come Hard On Brewers
/I’m sorry.

dickey cult hero ?
look this guy is pitching his heart out unlike perez and he wants to be in the bigs. dickey does not have great stuff but he is a smart pitcher and knows how to use his pitches .same as takahashi does give the guy credit he has had 3 good quality starts and is making less money then that turd perez i say keep him in the roation as long as you can because nieve scares me as a starter how about a package of flores and parnell for oswalt it wont happen cause houston is not that stupid but it would be nice ..
lohaus #54
seriously, how is this person not banned yet?
This is not the first, nor the second, time that calling the unpunctuated illiteracy what it is has resulted in a quick slide to schoolyard bullshit from lohaus#54. This is not a standard I like.
