How the tides have changed!

Today every Mets fan is waking up a little uneasy. Everyone who watched the game last night thought we were going to have a laugher but turned out being a slobber. The Mets are not in first place and today is the first day we have flashbacks of 2007.

The Mets have their ace on the mound, Johan Santana who has to put his best foot forward against our nemesis. Even if Santana pitches well and he don't go the distance,we have to look to see if this beleaguered bullpen can keep their heads on straight and overcome their fears of what happened to them last night. This bullpen has been overused and has not been replaced from last year. The same old parts and Omar has to look for fresh blood next year!!

The Phillies have Kyle Kendrick on the mound today who has not had a great year but, has been reliable against the Mets. It seems like the Phillies wake up all the time verse the Mets..
