Wild Card in the Future for the New York Mets?
Posted by Señor Met in Arizona Diamondbacks on August 2nd, 2009
Angel Pagan hit his first home run for the Mets in a couple years, it was a grand slame and the Mets beat Arizona 9-6.
Unless the Angel can do that day in and day out, and a host of other Mets step up there is no way we are making any kind of playoff run.
At 50 wins and 53 losses, there are 7 teams ahead of us in the wild card race and we are 6.5 games back of the wild card leaders.
Delgado is done for the year, Beltran’s knee issue may be career threatening, and Reyes’ hamstring gets better and then gets worse. Internally, our GM Omar Minaya has been on the hot seat with fans and media calling for his firing.
I would like to say this has been one of the most disappointing seasons ever, but the way the last couple ended with embarrasing final week of the season collapses this season appears to be just another one of the many disappointments.

And the Mets slump continues. Luckily, the Phillies seem to be slumping badly as well.
This team needs a new bat.
Omar Minaya, what are you waiting for? This team is so depleated, we need a big bat in our lineup ASAP. Arguably, the Mets need it more then any other team in baseball.
Two straight losses to Tampa Bay. We need just a little more help offensively.
Don’t Count this Team Down and Out

An early five run deficit. The so called by Omar Minaya lack of energy, heartless team would have packed it in.
But that was then. And this is now.
David Wright had a big game. Pumping out those RBI’s.
Carlos Delgado and Jose Reyes are both injured. Delgado is probably looking at the DL. Reyes should be back any minute. JJ Putz is having health issues as well.
But as long as a few hitters step up every night. And as long as the bullpen keeps us in games. We will be able to win games when we fall behind early. And as we know from past Septembers, every game matters.
