Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 4316613, member: 27"] Givens looked awful. Lugo looked bad. Nogosek and Lopez were just sent down after also getting bombed. Hell of a way to for him introduce himself to Mets fans. On the positive side, Bassitt was great. May looked good. Pete and Vogelbach had nice games and Nimmo and McNeil both had 3 hits. Back to a 3.5 game lead over the Braves. I think that means the Mets will remain in first even if they only win 1 of the 5 games against Atlanta this weekend. Bassitt throwing 7 innings helps position the bullpen well for the coming doubleheader. It is a shame Givens was so bad. Another shutout would have been nice. McCann comes back tomorrow and hopefully Megill sometime in the next 2 weeks or so. I assume adding Ruf almost guarantees Alvarez will not be called up until September. I hope he proves he is worth that big package of players. [/QUOTE]
