Like Tug Said....
Ok, so no Pedro.Interesting that a team that has hammered the rest of the National League for months without Pedro should now be considered an underdog, but so be it.I say embrace the new role for the Mets, relish the role as underdog.But make no mistake, this is still a very good Mets team. The batt...

Wednesday Night
I've got tickets to a potnential game 5 of the NLDS at Shea Stadium. I don't expect to need them, after last night's performance by Tom Glavine.Last month, Trachsel got the job done with a chance to clinch the division at home, here's hoping he can take care of wrapping this series up in sunny Cali...

Hiding in the Style Section
The NY Times hid this article about the battle for control of New York in the style section of Sunday's paper.Allen Salkin writes about the Mets rise in terms of fans in New York City as opposed to the Yankees. I'm starting to get really sick of all the articles that assume that the Mets should be m...

About Time
We break away from ongoing Mets coverage to let you know that Fiorentina finally got a win, beating Parma 1-0 at Artemio Franchi. It only took three games, but Fiorentina is now at -16 points. Mutu (seen in the air in the below photo) scored a scintillating goal set up by Luca Toni.

A family institution gets some love
From New York Times restaurant critic Frank Bruni's interview with Brooklyn Chef Adam Shepard. You did something awful and are sentenced to die. Dead Chef Walking! What's your final meal â€" and we're not talking five or six courses, though you can have dessert â€" before you go? Si...

Huh?
For whatever reason I feel pretty good about tonight's Mets game. Usually I'm a fatalist about these sorts of things but tonight I feel good.I think the Mets can kill this Kuo character, tear his head off. This guy has one career victory, which was against the Mets of course. He pitched six good inni...

Met Musings
Bobby Cox looked so sad sitting in the dugout watching his Braves embrace the offseason at the beginning of September at Shea Stadium. What a change from years past for the Mets. Rather than go to the ballpark ("I'm not paying money to sit in the rain and watch Dave Williams and Oliver Perez pitch"),...

the stove is very very hot
The stove is on fire. 8 years $136 million for Soriano from the Cubs. Good lord that's a lot of money. Carlos Beltran sees like a bargain by comparison. In theory this gives the Cubs a very dangerous batting order anchored by Aramis Ramirez and Derek Lee in the infield and Soriano in the outfield...
