Who else is loving our upcoming schedule? We start a three game series at home against Washington today, followed by three against Florida at home, then in June we have four at Pittsburgh, three at Washington, and three in Philly before it starts getting tough. These next sixteen games could be the time for the Mets to blow up and head into the Subway series with some momentum.

The Mets have reportedly sign Francisco Rodriguez to a three-year, $37-million deal today. While the money may have been a little more than I would have liked, I think this was a move that the Mets needed to get done, especially when you consider that the 9th inning was what kept us out of the postseason again this year. I still like that Omar is making these big moves though, these are moves that I feel must be made to put last season behind us.

Your thoughts?

i don't know if many of you remember me, i was here not too long after the clubhouse was started. well, i moved to florida and didn't have access to a computer there much. now i'm back in jersey but my still laptop's broken. last couple of months i just did't have the time to come on here, though i did keep listening to the podcast. i do hope to catch up on all my mets news and hope to be around more often.

Jose Reyes has been Named NL Player of the Month. He deserved it too, hitting .356, 26 runs scored, 17 stolen bases, 5 triples, and 18 RBI's from the leadoff spot. He is the most exciting player in baseball now, A-Rod can choke on his home runs as far as i'm concerned.

John Maine was also named the NL Pitcher of the Month with a 4-0 perfect record and a 1.35 ERA.
