Do the Mets sweep the Dodgers?

I hope so…but given the weather right now (cold, windy), don’t think it’s in our favor.
Johan stated that cold and wind last night affected him and his pitches. Being the warrior he is, he battled through it anyway. Ollie, not so much.
I think Maine will need every advantage he can get and this weather won’t help….

One advantage he has is that this guy is a call up guy. Right?

Yes, that’s correct. I believe it’s his ML debut too.

I don’t think I’m doing very good with these trivia questions – LOL. Not only was I wrong with yesterday’s, I don’t remember Carl Wiley at all…
Today’s: Jon Matlack ?

Yesterday’s was tough, but I remember someone complaining they were too easy.

I know Livan left on bad terms, but the man always starts out hot.
It’ll be interesting to see if he continues his usual decline around ASG.

Truthfully, I was a little puzzled when they released Livan last year. He pitched reasonably well the first half, especially for a #5.
My assumption on the release was they knew the season was lost and they wanted to give Misch and Parnell an opportunity to start, see what they had.
Even with that though, they could have had Livan in the BP long relief, especially when Ollie and Maine and Niese and Nieve were hurt, Johan pitching hurt, and BP light with the starting of Misch and Parnell.

He was dead when they released him. He really needs to be on the Pedro plan.

I think it had to do with Livan was about to hit his incentives.
Livan and Pedro could be one great pitcher; Livan in the first half and Pedro in the second half.
Whatever happened to El Duque?
