Rock Crappy Recap: Do I Have To?

Mets 5, Rockies 0

Yes, I have to. But if the Rockies aren't going to put in a full effort on a Thursday afternoon, neither am I.

Official Scorer

Losing Player: #42. Everybody wearing Jackie Robinson's #42 in a Rockies uniform today embarrassed the number.

They played like shit. I could stop there, but I'll add a little to it.

  • The defense was pathetic. 
  •  Botched rundown with a pitcher running. 
  •  Melvin Mora can't turn a double play unless a catcher or pitcher is running. 
  •  Miguel Olivo with some really lazy backhands of balls in the dirt. 
  •  Seth Smith throwing to the wrong base. 
  •  Jason Giambi has no range. 
  •  De La Rosa walked five. 
  •  Zero runs scored.

Of course the final blurb there (0 runs) rendered everything else moot on this day, but you still have to look at the whole ugly picture.
