... bullpen has been frustratingly inconsistent, from mainstays like Aaron Heilman to fill-ins like Carlos Muniz.Ayala's first four seasons in the major leagues saw much more success than he enjoyed this season with the worst-in-baseball Nationals (44-81). Ayala sported ERA's ranging between 2.66 and 3.19 in those seasons, all with the Expos/Nationals."We owed it to him," Nationals General...

Jerry Manuel said he needed another outfielder and that the team was sending down Carlos Muniz after last nights game, not because of the game winning homerun he gave up but to make room for another position player. Muniz at times is over matched and while it appears he'll make a very good set-up man he's not their yet. The Mets have chose Chris Aguila to replace him on the roster....

... He didn’t have much left to use. However, Manuel had two better options to use rather than Carlos Muniz in the 9th. Scott Schoeneweis didn’t pitch on Tuesday, so he was fresh. Billy Wagner pitched on Tuesday but didn’t on Monday, so he was also fresh. Manuel seems to have chosen Muniz because he’s a righty, and the 9th had two right-handed batters ( Albert Pujols and Troy Glaus...

... spells the end most likely for Eddie Kunz on the big league roster. Me personally I’d send back Carlos Muniz who has been a huge disappointment to me as I thought he’d excel as a late inning guy but he just gets a reprieve until John Maine is activated on Wednesday. It looks like Brain Stokes off his start Saturday will stay as the long man in what is a mess of a bullpen. If there...

Marlins 8 Mets 2 The Marlins avoided a sweep at Shea by blasting Mike Pelfrey for six runs in 4 and 2/3 innings, and riding behind the arm of Josh Johnson. Big Pelf had a rough day, allowing 7 hits and 3 walks in a 98-pitch effort. The bullpen didn’t do much better, with Eddie Kunz uncorking a wild pitch to allow one of Pelfrey’s runners to score, and Carlos Muniz allowing two homers...

Jacobs killed his former team this weekend, popping two homers and two doubles. With the loss, the Mets fell to 1.5 back in the standings and could either lose or gain another half game depending...

... intense as to who walks out though the right field fence. If the game is one sided either way then Carlos Muniz or Ruddy Lugo come out and your relatively pain free. In a close game and the Mets need to get a lefty out Pedro Feliciano comes in and it starts to get uncomfortable. If it’s a righty that needs to be retired then Joe Smith comes in and while not Feliciano uncomfortable...
