Mets on a six game losing streak

With two games left in the current series against the Milwaukee Brewers, the New York Mets are looking to turn around a losing streak that goes back to June 17th.  The only real bright spot being an 11-game winning streak in April.  Now fans are calling for Terry Collins, who is in his last contract year, to be fired.  For his part, Terry has worked with what the franchise has given him all the way down the line.

“We’ve had everybody from Triple-A here,” Collins said. “I don’t know what you want me to tell you. We have done everything we can, we brought up all those guys that were swinging the bats good.

Last night, the Mets left fielder, Michael Cuddyer’s coughed up an unforced error giving the Brewers the go-ahead run in a 3-2 loss.

“Nothing’s going our way right now,” Cuddyer said. “You compound that with trying to do everything right and trying so hard to come through in certain situations, it’s not a good recipe. And it hasn’t been a good recipe especially on this road trip.”

Sox sink Mets 6-3

The game started off well for pitcher Jonathan Niese, who sat eight straight batters.  Then things began to get away from him as he sputtered out.  By the time he was replaced 52 pitches later by Tyler Pill, he had bases loaded for the young prospect Pill.

“The arm felt great,” Niese said. “I kind of ran out of gas there at the end and lost command, but it was good to get that 50 pitches, get the workload in. I haven’t thrown that many pitches in a while, so it’s building up. I’m feeling better and better each outing.”
