"I wasn't very good. That's the reason we lost. We move on. It's not anything physical. It's how I'm thinking out there, a little bit, and sticking to the game plan little more -- having conviction with my pitches."

Stammen Fizzles, Mets Sizzle
Mets 9, Nationals 5: Stammen gets lit up like a pack of M-80s.
Awful: 3.1 IP, 8 H, 7 ER, 3 BB, 1 HR + 1 Error.
Good for the Nats for battling. Oh, what could have been: if not for Bernadina Friday and Stammen Sunday,we could've been talking sweep instead of split this morning.
Meanwhile...
Capps is an All-Star, Zim still could be. And we're glad Strasburg definitely won't be: save those bullets for the post-All Star Break playoff run (we're serious about that).
