Cuba 300 Heart


What do they all mean? Well these are the three things I learned today during the Mets drubbing of the Florida Marlins.

1) Cuba. With Obama in the White House easing up some of the restrictions with Cuba, Livan Hernandez can now freely travel to his homeland. This probably makes him happy. A happy Livan could be a CY Young candidate. Why Not? He has been a consistent 50% win 50% loss pitcher the last few years, and that was without the run support the Mets produce.

2) 300. The Mets have never been a team with hitters who bat over 300. Look at the records, only David Wright and John Olerud have ever hit over .300 in their career as a Met. This is all about to change. The fast start has 6 starters over 300. Hot hitting is contagious and with this talented lineup there are always gonna be hot hitters around. I would not be surprised if 5 or 6 Mets finish over 300.

3) Heart. This team has Heart. When you have the right group of players, special things happen. When the Face of the Franchise wears his Heart on his sleeve, it makes cheering for him so much more.

Ask Yankee fans how they feel cheering for A-Rod. They know he is nothing more then a cheater. They can only root for him as a means to score another run. There is no love there.

With David it is different. We love him. We will always cheer him even if he never gets another hit, because he plays the game for all of the right reasons.

He plays with heart.
