First Place Mets
Sounds good!

First Place Mets

Yeah, sounds very, very good. And I don't really care how early in the season it is. People were writing them off after the first week and a half. But now.... Now they have won 9 out of 10 games on the just completed home stand. The swept the Braves and the Dodgers (7-3 today--sorry Gene) and lost only one to the Cubs in a four game series.


Mets rolling along while causing confusion


After a 3-7 start that had people talking about everything from firing the manager to imploding Citi Field--and the team with it, the Mets are now 13 and 9 with a 1/2 game lead over the Second Place Phillies (12-9).

Can they keep it going? We'll soon see as they hit the road for six games. First they go off to Philly to face the Second Place Phillies (I love saying that: "Second Place Philies") for a three game weekend series and then on to Cincinnati for three against the Reds. If they can win four of the six--they are currently 2-4 on the road--things will definitely be looking bright in Flushing.
