Daniel Murphy has had his ups and downs at the plate this season for the New York Mets, but the second basemen has been reliable when it counts. The 27-year-old proved once again last night that when the pressure is on, he’s at his best.

As David Wright goes, so go the Mets. That used to be said about Jose Reyes, but not these days.
The New York Mets have turned a few head this season thanke to a No-Hitter from Santana and the Knuckleball antics of RA Dickey. What are odds makers predicting for the second half of the season for the NY Mets?
The New York Mets have to be very proud of their performance in the first...

If at the end of Spring Training, someone had told you that the day before the All-Star break that the Mets were seven games above .500 you probably would not have believed them. And if they told you the Mets would accomplish this with Ike Davis batting .205 with a .669 OPS you would have suggested that they lay off the crack pipe. Yet here we are.
It seems there are two conclusions...

R.A. Dickey (l) and David Wright (r) will be representing the New York Mets at the All-Star Game this week.
Let’s start with the All-Star Game. David Wright not only lost out on the starting third base spot to Pablo Sandoval but he won’t be the DH either. If this game matters and the best players should be starting then why is Wright not starting this game?
And speaking of...

Everyone in Metsland seems upset that David Wright was the victim of voter fraud in San Francisco and that R.A. Dickey was the victim of Tony LaRussa arrogance/stupidity. Me, I do not care too much about either of those things. Rather what has me upset is the opening line of a column published by CBS Sports’ Jon Heyman Monday night. Here’s what Heyman wrote:

When the New York Mets began this season, expectations were low. Most around baseball figured they would be well out of contention by the time the All-Star break rolled around. But the break is here, and the Mets, despite a 7-0 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Sunday, are still improbably well within contention of a playoff berth. They have done it thanks to an MVP-caliber first half...

In the past decade, the Mets minor league system has not been regarded with any kind of respect. Although the minor league system has produced David Wright, Jose Reyes, and several of the starters on this 2012 team, it has also seen many “top prospects” fizzle out or not reach their full potential. This lack of respect comes from prospects like Philip Humber, Fernando Martinez...
