Mets? The Team to Beat.
Whereas Justin's latest blog post was one of panic, my latest post will be one of big-headed boasting!
The New York Metropolitans are off to one of the best starts in franchise history, winning their first four games in dominating fashion, outscoring their opponents 31-3. In fact, it was only the 3rd time in MLB history that a team has won their first 4 games allowing 1 run or less in each of them.
The Mets hitting, which I assumed to be good, has been fantastic.
Jose Reyes is off to a fantastic start, already batting .381 with 7 RBIs and 2 triples. Carlos Beltran has also been stellar, with a .300 batting average and 2 homers.
The real surprise has been the Mets pitching. All four of the Mets starters (Glavine, El Duque, John Maine, and Oliver Perez) picked up wins in their debuts. Even the Mets bullpen has been unstoppable, not giving up a run in 12 innings pitched.
It's nice to be able to say "I'm proud to be a Mets fan!"
