Happy July! Now that we've completed our first winning month of the year, let's take this first day to rest up while keeping an eye on some of our NL West friends, all of which whom have games that start at 4p PT:
- Arizona @ New York Mets: Wade Miley (4-7, 4.55) vs. Shaun Marcum (1-9, 5.08). Shaun of the rolling over and playing dead? Well, the good news, I suppose, is that Marcum earned his first win of the year in his last outing, a 3-0 win over the White Sox in which Marcum went 8.0 IP. On the other hand, the D'backs don't see a real Met pitcher until game 3 of the series on Wednesday, when they draw Matt Harvey. Boo.
- San Diego @ Miami: Jason Marquis (9-3, 3.99) vs. Jose Fernandez (4-4, 2.98). Fernandez is tied for the team lead in wins, along with Dodger trade bait Ricky Nolasco (who is 4-8). Fernandez also leads the team in IP (84.2) and Ks (84), which by my math works out to about a K an inning. Graduate education, baby!
- San Francisco @ Cincinnati: Mike Kickham (0-2, 10.57) vs. Bronson Arroyo (6-6, 3.61). Kickham is pretty green, while Arroyo has long flowing hair. Put 'em together, and you've got the She-Hulk.

Marmol? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO......OOOOOOOOOO!
posted...thanks for the tip
I've never been a fan of the Amazonian body type.
AZ already up 2-0.
CIN also up on SF, 2-0.
Giants in trouble again. Two on and one out. Kickham getting kicked around.
Vagiants down 4-0.
Vagiants now down 7-1 in the 5th inning.
AZ up 3-0, T6. The Mets' Eric Young just made a ridiculously stupid jump for a pop fly that bounced out of his glove; it was like Young thought the wall was a heck of a lot closer than it actually was. Cody Ross ends up with a leadoff double in the top of the sixth.
Marlins up on Padres 4-0, B7. Marlins have one out and a man on first.
Reds now up 8-1 on Giants, B5. Reds have two on with two out. Arroyo at the plate, facing George Kontos.
Kickham lasted 2.2 and gave up 7 ER. But he did get two Ks!
San Diego down to its final out, down 4-0 in Miami. 3-2 count.
And, he walks him.
Headley singles, so Padres at the corners.
It's raining in Cincinnati, having completed six full innings. Reds 8, Giants 1.
Kyle Blanks makes the third out. Padres lose.
David Wright just knocked in Eric Young, and now there are first and second with 1 out. Gibby going to the pen.
AZ 3, Mets 1 (bottom seven, two on, one out)
Good job Marlins. Come on, Mets.
Whoo, Cishek gets the 1-out save for the Marlins. My fantasy team is thrilled.
Josh Satin of the Mets hits a sure 6-4-3 double play ball, but Didi Gregorious botches the 6-4 part so they only turn the force out at second. First and third, two out.
ugh, wasted opportunity there for the Mets
John Buck (batting .206) fouls out to first.
3-1 AZ through seven.
Buck was leading the league and RBIs at one point in the season, like a month in. I don't think he's had a hit since
Parra nearly caught that but might have broke his face
1 out triple for the Mets.
Nasty fall by Parra, including a faceplant. Mets' Omar Quintanilla legs out a triple. One out.
Mets one out away from blowing another opportunity.
EYJr gets him home with a double, 3-2
Eric Young doubles in Quintanilla, then got to third on a WP...but that's it. AZ 3, Mets 2, through 8.
Murph pops up leaving Young at third, on to the 9th
okay kiddies, gotta run.
Well, they got one run at least.
Peace out Saxamaphone.
When did EYjr go to the Mets?
LaTroy to put this game out of our misery
@Gnomes a week or two ago, Rox DFAed him I think
Last chance for the nigh mets.
Saxamaphone!
Darren Oliver is still in the league and is somehow still decent
Tramapoline!
Byrd with a one-out double, soon to be stranded
Why am a blacked out from Baseball Tonight?
he was 6-inches or so from a home run
could have used a steroid or two there
Mmmm...sacrilicious.
@Paul - the wordwide leader was showing the Gnats game tonight. I am guessing the rain delay still has you in a blackout
That was close to getting out.
Come on Mets.
Josh Satin has some Bert brows
I hope so FB. I don't need another stupid blackout rule
safe! nice tag
Oh man I thought he was dead on that play.
he should have been
Tie!
Just get a bs base hit to left field.
Only the mets.
Or Dodgers.
Sigh, nigh mets.
Mets with the late-innings picket fence.
You're our only hope, Daniel Murphy!
Dammit.
A.A. Milne
B.B. King
C.C. Sabathia
Didi Gregorious
EE Cummings?
that's e.e. cummings to you
there might be 300 people left at New Shea
Byrd turd.
why is there a can of Pam on the Mets bench?
Walk off walk?
woah that was close to strike 3, rancho ardi time
Rancho Metsdiendo
Two puts, bottom 11, bases full of mets
This is one heck of a midseason scoreboard watching thread
It has taken me awhile to figure out the mets scoreboard configuration. I must be tired.
Dammit!!
aw crap
Goldshite will probably hit a homer next inning just to drive me more crazy
gnite all
To the bottom of the 12th we go, tied at 3
Mets have used four PH tonight, batting .128, .157, .197, and .250. Unsurprisingly, none of them have gotten a hit.
They kinda seem like the Dodgers, circa May 2013
Get a steal little little EY!
I'm gonna wake up and Ned will have traded the Dodgers for the Cubs.
This game is still going on?
C'mon Wright, send us home. Wait, I'm already at home.
SI MLB @si_mlb 23s
David Wright can't come through. Pops up low pitch to short CF to end 12th inning. We are headed to 13 in Queens!
Damn you, former Dodger Cody Ross.
Good job, good effort, Mets.
Dammit, rodeo clown HR in the top of the 13th. 4-3 AZ
Fing Cody Ross hurts the Dodgers even when the Dodgers are idle.
Bases loaded, two out for the mets, down 1 run...
Mets win!
Mets score! How many?!?!
Mets win it!!!!!
Andrew Brown delivers!!
Woohoo. Dbacks lose!!
Wow, Diamondbacks, Padres, and Giants all lose.
3.5 out!
Dodgers sneak to 3.5 GB
This is crazy
But here's my number
So call me...
Meh, you get it
Did I miss anything?
Josh Rawitch's Twitter feed has gone silent....
