The other night Gagne proclaimed his triumphant return by recording his first save. Fans were in a frenzy as their superstar closer was finally back. His save was not simply a ho-hum close, but a Gagne close. He struck out 2 of the 3 batters and had a perfect inning. Yesterday night, it was announced that Gagne is going to rest for at least a few days. Gagne said, “I had an MRI today and everything looked good, but the nerve’s inflamed a little bit.â€
Jose Contreras is a workhorse and he just won his 14th straight regular season decision (2005 and 2006). He is now 6-0 this year and has quickly become Mr. Dependable. He had a recent stint on the DL, but everything looks like it’s back to normal now. He is giving up less than one hit per inning, striking out one per 2 innings and has won each game he’s been a factor in the decision on. Furthermore, he has a 2.54 ERA and is destroying right-handed batters. They are only hitting a paltry .184 against him with a .212 OBP.
Last night Tom Glavine’s performance was anything but acceptable. Still, it was enough to get him the victory thanks in large part to the Mets’ offense, which rattled off 9 runs in a 9-7 victory over the LA Dodgers. Glavine was expected to go about 7 innings and give up 3 runs like normal, but last night the Dodgers had other plans. He ended up pitching 5 innings and giving up 6 runs including 3 walks and 7 hits.
