Fat lady warming up for Mets: This is gonna take .590 ball starting today

I’m out on my deck for the first time all year, and yep I’m wearing a Mets sweatshirt (Blue with Mets in white, the one with Mets in orange is in the wash) so it’s not like I’m not still a fan but…

It’s what, April 17th? Even if my worst fears i didn’t see this coming. I don’t know what to build off. I don’t know which pitcher to rally behind. I don’t know which batters to root for.

I look at the math. It terrifies me.

6 back. Teams to pass. A week of wins away from .500

Want 85 wins? Time to go .551 the rest of the way playing 81-66 ball.

86-61 for 90 wins. Thats .585 ball 91 wins got you the WC in 2010.

I know one of you will tell me the 1894 Superbas were 32 out with 36 left to play (or some other unlikely rare scenario) but stilly won, but these games in April matter folks.

Jokes aside but there may not be meaningful games in April!

This is not good. Not good at all. If any team ever needed an early mini 4 game winning streak it’s this one.

Mets Loss and Ojeda Goes Off


Anyone else expecting Colactus to cause something to explode like in this pic?

The Mets lost seven straight games now.I can see Citi Field is becoming a ghost town. I am still hoping that something breaks for the Mets and they can turn this around. I am not expecting a winning season just play with heart and keep the games close. I will be happy with that.

On the SNY post game show Bobby Ojeda went off on R.A. Dickey. It wasn’t about Dickey’s pitching. It was about an interview in game one today on FOX. I missed most of that game but Ojeda said he was upset because Dickey was already talking about what he is planning on doing in January. Really R.A.? Is that true? I would be more worried about what I am doing on my next pitching outing. I still like you RA. I am not going to get down on you because I didn’t hear what you said first hand. But it is bad if any Mets players are thinking about next winter already.
