Santana & The Soggy Mets: Mets Lineup V. Dodgers - July 20, 2012

If the Mets get this game in tonight, it will be against the Dodgers. With the weather being absolutely cloudy and wet in NY, chances are there might be a future double header.


Tonight Mr. No-no will take the hill against the Dodgers, and hopefully Johan and the Mets can build upon the win yesterday that halted a 6 game losing streak. Now is the time for the Mets to put together a nice 6 or 7 game winning streak.



Kirk Nieuwenhuis, who is 2 for his last 20, will once again grab some pine. Bay can be one for May and play, but Captain Kirk can't slump at all. The kid needs to play, but the Mets skipper tends to think differently than yours truly.


Tonight's scheduled lineup:


1.  Ruben Tejada - SS
2.  Daniel Murphy - 2B
3.  David Wright - 3B
4.  Ike Davis - 1B
5.  Lucas Duda - RF
6.  Jason Bay - LF
7.  Andres Torres - CF
8.  Josh Thole - C
9.  Johan Santana - LSP
