It's easy to place the blame on the bullpen last night. Sure they gave up a walk-off homer and some other runs, but to me this loss is on Pedro.

And it's not just this loss that's making me think this way. Pedro hasn't had a good start yet. Honestly, I think he's done. He came back to pitch better after the rain delay, but he already dug himself a 4 run hole.

The Mets showed me some life in their lineup by coming back from a 4-0 deficit to take a 7-5 lead, but in usualy Mets fashion they look to disappoint.

Soon it was 7-7 and then I thought Endy Chavez was going to rob Troy Glaus of his walk-off homer, but it was not to be.

They need a win tonight, but can they keep up the offensive fireworks? I don't think so, but they need to scratch out a few runs to get a win.

And Omar needs to start thinking about how he might need to replace Pedro in the second half of the season if this keeps up.
