Too close for comfort…

Santana gets the win thanks to an error by second baseman Ricky Weeks who dropped a ball handed to him at first base. The Mets once again have left Johan uncomfortable with run support but got the win. To close it out the Mets, Putz-Frankie, one-two punch have done it again securing the Mets having the best bullpen in the majors!

I guess we will have to live with nail biters everytime Santana pitches…

No love for Santana…

Santana pitches into history with 7 innings, 13 strikeouts but gets a loss! Run support for Johan has become a challenge for the Mets who left Santana with 7 possible wins last season but because lack of runs have possibly ruined his chances of winning the NL Cy Young award the hitting needs to step up!

Johan Santana 2009

Santana looks great for his 2009 debut on 5.2 innings, 3 hits, 1 run with 4 walks. Johan continues his dominance for the Mets who have recently acquired Livan Hernandez to be the 5th starter. Let’s just hope the Mets give him some run support this season!
