Sign of Things to Come?
No, I’m not writing about bullpen problems. Yeah, we have them, but they are not going to sink this team. Nor am I going to make a great big deal about losing two series to the Braves. The Braves are a good team, and I’ve already been expecting a real pennant race in the NL East. The players on our team don’t remember 1999 and 2000 (except Tom Glavine). There is no jinx. We can’t be psyched out. We still have a better team. We have an incredible team. It is April.
What I’m thinking about is this: the Mets sold out a 56,000 seat stadium for two games against the Braves IN APRIL! Put two and two together.
