I think the Mets looked pretty unprepared out there but want to give them a small pass because the conditions were so awful it turned a team we thought would hit and not pitch the other way around. And we won a series in Cincinnati, the last victory being the most satisfying game yet so maybe they’re coming around.

Then again we’re in Atlanta.

Pitching tonight is Julio Teheran, who will be wearing No. 49. Also in the bullpen for the first time, “Cowboy” Cole Sulser, who was recalled when Yohan Ramirez was DFAed. Sulser has been issued No. 54.

RIP Jerry Grote and Pat Zachry.
