Man, Haven't Done One Of These In A While

Maybe now that I'm unemployed, I'll have more time for sabermetrics. Or not, whatever.

Just a day away from Mets pitchers and catchers reporting. Finding it hard to get excited for the team this year. Even with the addition of Jason Bay, it looks like approximately an 84-win team. And that assumes that Reyes, Beltran et al will come back and be healthy for most/all of the year. Honestly, I'd bet the under.

That Was A Close Shave

Hooray!  The Mets are back over .500!  Although, this game ended up way more interesting than it should have.  I didn't get to see the first six innings -- how was Pedro?

He's still got a terrible ERA, but I'd like to take a look at his peripherals and see if Pedro is as done as everyone's been saying. Later, maybe.  I looked at all of the spreadsheets I can for today.  Yes, it does occasionally happen.

Science! It Works, Bitches!

Or at any rate, Billy Wagner does. Wow. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a closer brutalize three hitters like that. I'll be going to the game on Sunday night, so I hope the Mets can get go 3-1 on the Dodgers. Man, that'd put them a whole game over .500! Holy crap!
