With Friends Like The 'Pen, Johann Santana Needs No Enemies

Billy Wagner's Shoulder was bothering him, and it was due to muscles acting up in his pitching shoulder, which is why he was not seen tonight. Click on the title and read this take from Bill Bender from The Sporting News:

A Fine effort by Johann Santana(8 Innings), was wasted. Duaner Sanchez was NOT READY. The Phils started to hit him. What Dan Warthen and Jerry Manuel were watching, I have absolutely no clue. Perhaps, Rick Peterson left some crazy herbal concoction behind. Joe Smith came in, allowing a ground ball;

Jose' Reyes needs a good swift kick in the arse. I would've done it but I might have pulled a muscle doing so. Get an out and don't be a fancy schmuck and f--k it up;

Feliciano hung one up there for Taguchi, that said "Please Hit Me";

It cost the NY Mets Dearly;

Wags? Hurry Back;

Later!
