It's bullshit. The Reds and Brewers pitchers bring out their inner fucking Cy Young talent when facing us, and then completely lay the fuck down when facing the Cardinals and Cubs.

:(

I had no idea the Pirates and the Cubs were so close in the standings

You'd think 22 games over .500 would be enough to lead your division, or at the very least, not be at risk at falling into 3rd place within your division.

But naw :|

Edit: Locke vs Harvey tomorrow. Guaranteed loss haha. I'm not even sure why Locke is still in the rotation. I'd rather have Worley or Blanton. There's no value in a pitcher whose going to struggle to the 4th or 5th inning and proceed to self destruct...

Thank you Gigantes. What an opportunity for the Mets to bury the Natinals and they go on to lose two extra inning affairs. OY!!! Pirates are a very good team but damn did the Mets lineup look flat against guys like Morton and Happ.

I'm still pretty irritated. Matt Harvey pitches today and the Mets have to win this game.
 
I would really like to see the Mets have some success of they make it this postseason. Not against us of course, but the fan base deserves it. Maybe it'll help ownership realize spending money isn't a bad thing.
 
Another walkoff defeat.

Spending 3 hours a day listening and watching the A's, seeing one of the best starting staffs in baseball only to have other teams dismantle the bullpen. Every f'ing night.

WTF is Mujica even doing here? Why is every bullpen clown throwing waist high changeups? What the hell is going on in Oakland.

Marcell Ozuna was more than happy to be back with the Miami Marlins, comparing his recent minor league stint to being "in the jail."

Ozuna was recalled Saturday by the Marlins after spending nearly six weeks at Triple-A New Orleans.

"I was in the jail over there. It's like a jail," Ozuna told the Miami Herald. "But it's OK. I'm back, and I'm going to help the team, help Miami."

Ozuna, 24, was demoted to New Orleans on July 5 after being mired in a 1-for-36 slump. But the outfielder suggested that his struggles at the plate were not the only reason for his demotion.


"They tell me you're going down for work, get your feeling back and you come back," Ozuna told the Herald. "I know what happened when they sent me down."

Ozuna, who had 23 home runs and 85 RBIs last season, had been on pace to qualify for Super Two early arbitration for 2016 and would have been eligible for free agency in 2019. But due to his extended stay in the minors, Ozuna likely will not have enough service time in the majors to qualify for arbitration until 2017.

"I knew that's coming," Ozuna said. "I don't go [to New Orleans] for work, because [the Marlins] know me. I don't need the work; 1-for-36, 1-for-100 -- every big league player has it. I have it and everybody has it."

Ozuna's agent, Scott Boras, criticized Miami's decision to demote Ozuna in an interview with the Herald last month, accusing the organization of "not applying its best talent to try to win."

"Ozuna is a proven major leaguer, certainly deserving of being in the majors with the Marlins," Boras told the Herald. "I don't think anyone would look at the talent with the Marlins and suggest he's not one of the top 25 players in that organization.

"Major league players on the club are very upset about this issue. They've approached the manager on several occasions."

Ozuna batted .317 with five homers and 11 RBIs in 33 games at New Orleans.

"I'm not going to worry about the past," he said, according to MLB.com. "I'm going to worry about the present and try to finish strong."
