I knew he would keep the number up. All he did was move it down the column 2 spots. And instead of writing an actual post-game post, he puts up the Gary and Keith video from SNY. Great insight Matt!

The 07 Mets drop 2/3 to the nats in this spot. Lets hope the 08 Mets can sweep the worst team in the league.

Magic numbers should only be used at a time when you can confidently say that the team will PROBABLY win, not when the difference is only two to three games with more than 15 or so to play. When the Mets were up by 7 with 17 to play it was appropriate, but this time it wasn't and really does reflect a hubris we didn't need to display especially after what happened last year. And, of course, no sooner does the number go up on your site and others, then the Mets blow two out of the last three games. With a one-game difference between the Mets and Phillies (two in the loss) at this point, that number has to come down. Matt,
