Exactly. Nearly every start he makes...either the bullpen blows it or the offense doesn't show. It's like they are afraid to get their ace some wins.

Anyway...wondering if I could get everyone's opinion: Mike Piazza, clearly a first ballot HOF'er - does he go in as a Dodger or a Met? I got into a huge debate with my friend about it. While I naturally want him to go in as a Met, I really think it only makes sense. He hit more HR as a Met, had more RBI as a Met, and was one of the top 3 players in that team's history and will probably get his number retired.

I dunno, I'd be devastated if they put him in a Dodger cap...and it would mean Seaver will remain the only Met in the HOF for like another 20 years or so (and that's making the huge assumption that David Wright puts up big numbers the rest of his career with the Mets)
