Quote: Mark Simon on Mets in June & Tejada
“If we view May as the month in which the Mets fortunes turned, June is the month in which they established themselves as a contender for a postseason spot. In other words, it’s the time it which they became legitimate (or, as we prefer, legitiMET).”
…i love mark’s work, he provides so many random and unique bits of information, such as, “The Mets won 13 of their first 15 games that Tejada started at second base, outscoring the opposition 76-33 in those 15,” which makes me think, no matter how much Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel talk about Luis Castillo being the team’s second baseman, i just can’t see how they remove tejada from that position right now… they can’t do it…
