Okay, I'm exaggerating, but man, I wish we had someone better.

I wouldn't be so quick to give up on Perez like that. The maddening thing with him is his inconsistency. The guy has the type of stuff to be almost unhittable when he's on his game. Too bad those times are few and far between.
I wouldn't be surprised if Perez shut down the Cards in his start, but I'm certainly not counting on it.
The Mets are going to have to pound the Cards into submission with their offense. And that is made alot easier with the Cards only good pitcher pitching twice in this series, and the lack of quality lefties that the Cards can run out there.
