After getting swept out of Saint Louis by Albert Pujols, who connected off of sub-par pitching all week, the Mets are lucky to be heading to a must needed series against the National League punching bag – Washington Nationals.

We are a pathetic 6-9. We had better show up big time against Washington because we are already 5 games behind the Marlins and the season just started three weeks ago.

Even if the Mets don’t score a whole lotta runs for Johan Santana, at least he still shakes their hands.
