Game 8- Mets at Rockies

Here is the Mets line-up facing Rockies starter Aaron Cook tonight:

Jose Reyes – SS
Luis Castillo – 2B
David Wright – 3B
Jason Bay – LF
Mike Jacobs – 1B
Jeff Francoeur – RF
Rod Barajas – C
Angel Pagan – CF
Jon Niese – LHP

Check out the post this afternoon (Game 8 Starters) for the scouting report on Aaron Cook and Jon Niese.

Can someone explain to me why M Jacobs A) is playing, B) is hitting in front of Francoeur, who is the hottest hitter on the Mets right now? And don't tell me splitting up lefty/righties, because A Cook has no significant splits.

My prediction: Mets win 5-3 and everyone takes a deep breath, at least for one night.

  2. you say they are going to win every night....Francoeur should be batting 3rd...WRIGHT hasn't hit a HR since the line drive on opening day that was FAIR in the right field corner by a few feet.

  3. Wright did hit a garbage HR last night, but I do agree that Frenchy should be hitting higher than Jacobs, but not ahead of D Wright or Bay.
