Yes but they split the season series with the Yankees. And Rivera is a question mark right now with his elbow, so the Mets are conceivably the best team. Pitching in both leagues is bad this year. Only Johan Santana has been dominant.
The Mets number 8 hitter is hitting .288, so that gives you an idea of how good their lineup is. And the bullpen is among the best in baseball. Add a healthy Pedro and a decent Glavine and you have a formidable opponent, regardless of who they play in the NL.
The catalyst is Jose Reyes. If he is getting on and stealing bases, the Mets run production becomes phenominal.
my boy frankie liriano has been dominant, just injury prone. yeah the mets are good. but still, the yanks can get to em :)
It's possible. That's why they play the games. Anything can happen.
