Okay, with this Mets team which is just rattled with injuries the wheels had probably fallen off the bus a long time ago.
Somehow, we seemingly had managed to hang in there and not bury ourselves.
It is now obvious that is probably no longer the case. You just can’t expect to compete in this leage when your playing ever position with second stringers.
Nieve for crying out loud is the only positive we have right now, and he is playing on borrowed time.
Realistically, we aren’t gonna be healthy enough to win this division. The wild card is surprisingly still possible, but only because the rest of the National League hasn’t had a few teams take off in the same division, but that is likely to change.
Carlos Delgado
Jose Reyes
Carlos Beltran
Without those three in the lineup we are simply not going to score enough runs.
What makes it worse, is that the other solid guys in our lineup, bullpen, and starting pitching are also hurt so it pretty much disables the ability for our second tier stars to step up.
So many expectations this season…
