Home stretch for the Mets…

So, can we hold on this year?  With 17 games left, we’re up by three games over the scrappy Phillies.  The good news; our starting pitching is much stronger this season, and the team is clearly far more relaxed.  The bad news; anything can happen.  It’s baseball.

Doubleheader today for the Mets, with Santana and Jon Niese throwing.  A split is a must, and a sweep would be lovely.  I’ll report back this evening…
