...so good.
Only other 90+ wins needed and we're there! I thought we were solid, without needing to be any more than that. And given what happened last time we played the fish, I am happy to settle for that. David Wright looks like he's starting this season in exactly the same way as he started last - continuing a hitting streak. Long may the doubles continue!

Hiho! It is the day we have been awaiting for six months. Clean slate. No more hot stove conjecture, no more dwelling on a historic collapse, no more wondering about what kind of team we are going to field. It's here!

I have been thinking about opening day for a few weeks now. It always makes me feel like a kid again, when this whole drama is about to unfold before you and you just can't wait to be take along for the ride. Take me, Mets. Just make it a fun one, OK?

Hello from the other side of the pond! Got up today like a kid at Christmas - Opening Day 08, and at last, a chance to forget the train wreck that was last September and look forward to another season of quality baseball at Shea. It will be 9pm here when Johan steps out onto the mound and gets his 20 win season underway, and I'll be sat watching on the big screen, thanks to a digital projector and a broadband connection. All together now...Let's Go Mets!

I really can't figure the Mets out. They instituted a mysterious raffle for playoff tickets last season. I threw my name in the hopper and got nothing, although I did have other chances to go to games.

Now they are instituting another mystery raffle for opening day and the three games against the Yankees. I just don't like it.
