"I Hate This Team"

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Good wins. Saturday's game was one of those hang-tough ones that a crappier Met squad (say, like the 2007 Mets we know & love) might have blown. Yesterday we turned a squeaker into a rout by pounding on their pen: That we had the dominant force was resounding after that.

Whether he's accomplished this mediocre performance in a week or 2 months is immaterial. This is his production to date. Beltran's drop has been even more precipitous, going from 153 to 119. While you can write the difference off to injury, his seeming inability to stay healthy (or at least to play through pain) is part of the problem with him.

Beltran up to 129 (his highest in his career before last year had been 136.

Delgado at 102.

Delgado and Beltran have been the biggest difference from last year, but Beltran at least seems to be picking things up.

I thought Wright got over-hyped last year, but after a homerless April he's quietly been outstanding since.

I hope Smith comes up and replaces Mota soon.

But didn't everybody here figure going in that they were still likely to win although it would be much more of a struggle?

Homers aren't the end all and be all of course.

If I used the cliche right.
