Call this one the slumpcast.

Its the first day of summer and Its the last day of testing for me which is filling me with the joy the Mets should be right now. Well you can't blame the Mets for not trying afterall they beat the Twins up and down Queens before they let the Twins beat them up to Minnesota and back.

The collapse of the pitching yesterday was a disappointing one. In general you knew we had to have a poor outing one of these days. The bats came alive but couldn't bring the Mets all the way back.

I'm feeling a bit bummed on the state of the team right now. We're in the worst slide of the season right now. Two of three losses to the streaking Diamondbacks. Swept in three games by the Phillies. Now we've got a rubber game in Detroit.

What can you say on a night like this. Mets get a lead on three home runs. Wagner blows the save. The rest of the bullpen falls apart.

These are tough times for the Mets. I said earlier this season that there would be tough times. There are in every season.
