…this is an absolute must win for the Mets tonight…not because i think the season hangs in the balance on this game, as i still believe this team will win the division, but with the media and most fans on the brink of calling this a repeat of last september, the Mets need this win to prevent them from possibly falling to second place, which would most certainly alter the dymanic of the clubhouse…
…and, another thing, i’m tired of seeing the same old guys running out from the bullpen in big spots…i understand Jerry Manuel would get a ton of heat for throwing guys like Robert Parnell, Al Reyes, etc., in big spots, especially if they fail, but at this point, unless Roger McDowell or Jesse Orosco are being driven to the mound in a bullpen car, then i’d rather see anybody than the usual suspects out there…
…enjoy, and as always, Let’s Go Mets…
