Good enough?

Four games in St. Louis and two wins. You didn't expect more than that, did you? So it wasn't a lost series, but that Wednesday night game just irks, doesn't it? If it weren't for all the other games "like this" you'd just chalk it up saying "every team is going to have its games like this".

So, at least last night was an easy win. I thought Howie made a good point in the 5th when he wondered if Jerry Manuel would remove Ryan Church, who was slated to rest tonight. Manuel didn't make the move, but gave Wright half a game off.

How long will the Mets give Pedro to get it together? The velocity is there, but he can't command his pitches. Did he come back too soon? Would he go to New Orleans to work on his command? At the moment I'd rather the Mets stick with Armas for a few weeks and give Pedro time off (or in the minors) to work on his issues. There's even a chance Hernandez - remember him? - will be back to pitch and free up Pedro even more.
