Dr. Fauci: “We are heading in the wrong direction. If you look at the new cases it is among the unvaccinated. … Don’t misunderstand. Even if you are vaccinated it is prudent to wear a mask indoors.”

Dr. Seuss: “I meant what I said and I said what I meant. Simple it’s not, I am afraid you will find, for a mind-maker-upper to make up his mind.”

We are heading in the right direction and have made up our mind. The Mets have made us a few hundred harrelsons in the last two weeks. Rich Hill (6-6, 3.92 ERA) hasn’t put one in the win column yet as a Met (eight starts), but shut out the Nats in D.C. for six innings in his latest. Miami’s Sandy Alcantara (8-13, 3.36 ERA) took a loss at Citi Field on Sept. 2, the Mets scoring four in 6 ¹/₃. Alcantara has made 13 starts at home this year, winning twice. Play 20 units on the Mets.

Ahh, the Joy of Six. Reds built a 4-1 lead and held to slip by the Schlubs, 4-3. Wade Miley allowed one run. Six straight wins have reduced our debt to -675 cloningers.
