Armando was lights-out in '99 regular season. Rogers never lost at Shea. The former Brave won a pair of games in '06 postseason. Beltran was Beltran most of the time. Maybe 30 days of goodwill toward Mets until our preferred narratives inevitably take hold again. It only takes a moment to be traumatized and all the good stuff seeps down the drain. In Armando's case, a collection of moments. I mean, I remember the good stuff. I'm aware of it. But it doesn't balance out. For me, anyway. I know. It's not fair.
