Bengie Who???!!!

Prior to Friday night's game, Bengie Molina informed SNY's Kevin Burkhardt that he really wanted to come to the Mets - even to the point of studying Mets pitchers. He apparently turned down a 1 yr, $5 million offer and instead settled for $4.5 million with the Giants.

Sorry Bengie, but we didn't need you here after all. We have all the Catching we need right here in Flushing!

BAJA-FRESH and Hank White

In my opinion, these past 2 games have been the most exciting games to watch in almost two years.

Moreover, the Mets haven't had this much excitement at the Catching position since Piazza moved from Catcher to 1st Base FIVE years ago!

After a long winter, we as Mets fans deserve these exciting and fun baseball games that are being played at Citi Field these days. It's about time that breaks go our way and our team shows up to provide the Baseball games that give us fans Hope - Hope that, despite pessimistic critics and difficult circumstances, gives fans a chance to believe that maybe, just maybe the 2010 Mets have something special going.

Let's Hope! Lets Sweep! And Cheers to today's game:
