Defeat tastes terrible

Last night, the Mets played a pretty bad game against the Dodgers. Oliver Perez, while showing some improvment by only walking two batters, gave up 5 runs in 6 innings. I'm not going to say that hope is lost (like some others), but he definitely didn't contribute too much yesterday. I mean, three home runs, please!

The batters seemingly took a day off, with the whole team accumulating just 5 hits (2 for extra bases).

The two (relative) bright spots in this game were the defense and the bullpen: Both played adequately in an otherwise unproductive Mets night.

The Mets are currently 16-14. They trail the Marlins by half a game and the Phillies by 1.5.
