New York Mets Notes: Takahashi, Ollie, Beltran, and Murphy
The Mets suffered a pretty brutal 18-6 loss last night to the San Diego Padres that drops their record to 26-26 and into a three way tie for last place behind the Phillies and the Braves.
Here are some other notes
Hisanori Takahashi had his first bad start: 4 IP, 8 H, 6 ER, 2 BB, 1 K.

Oliver Perez โs agent apparently told the Mets to put the pitcher on the DL so he could go to Florida and see a sports psychologist and the Mets declined.
Carlos Beltran supposedly expects to play in an extended spring training game within a week.
Daniel Murphy is playing second base tonight for Triple-A Buffaloโfor the first time this year. With Ike Davis at first base Murphy should only be playing second base. I donโt understand why they waited so long to move him over there.
So the Mets could have found a way to at least temporarily rid themselves of Perez and they passed?
And as far as Beltran goes, Iโll believe it when I see it.
