SAN DIEGO — As if enough things hadn’t gone wrong for the Mets this season, now All-Star closer Frankie Rodriguez is on the fritz. K-Rod blew his second consecutive save in ugly fashion here Friday night, serving up a grand slam in the bottom of the ninth to let the last-place Padres walk off with a 6-2 win.

The Mets will turn around from that disaster and watch Bobby Parnellmake his big-league starting debut tonight against the Padres’ Mat Latos.

In the notes, the Mets say they are conducting a top-to-bottom review of their medical procedures in the wake of so many injuries this season. And in our weekly Saturday Mets feature, colleague Mark Hale takes a look at David Wright‘s leadership skills.
