Found April 22, 2009 on Jorge Says No:
Sure, the Mets can't hit in socring position to save my life, but wow, these guys can hit .300! As of last night's game against the Cardinals, each position player on the Mets was hitting above .300 with the exception of Ramon Castro. Think about this: the Mets entire infield and outfield is hitting at least .300.

Proof:

J Reyes SS 5 1 2 1 0 1 1 .339 D Murphy LF 3 0 1 1 1 0 2 .320 D Wright 3B 4 1 2 1 0 1 2 .306 C Delgado 1B 4 0 1 0 0 1 0 .300 C Beltran CF 3 0 2 1 1 0 0 .354 R Church RF 3 0 0 0 0 0 3 .350 R Castro C 4 0 0 0 0 0 1 .150 L Castillo 2B 4 1 2 0 0 1 0 .400 I know it's only 13 games into the season, but this is still very, very impressive. And somewhat weird.
(Note: Has this ever happened before? Seven starters, all hitting above .300 this "late" into the season.) What's not impressive is the Mets record: 6-7. It's incredible to think that this team has not gotten off to a better start considering how hot their bats are. It comes down to timely hitting, which the Mets have not been excelling in.
