Talking Baseball: What Happened to the Mets?
It wasn't that long ago that the New York Mets were just a game out of first place. In fact it was just right around the All-Star break and the Mets were a fun team to watch and root for.
Oh well. With the Mets currently 15 games out of their division race and 10.5 games out of the wildcard race, a bunch of teams would need to lose a lot in order for the Mets to be able to gain ground. Oh, and the Mets would also need to figure out how to win again.
While I can only hope that the Mets can invoke the spirits of Tug McGraw and Bob Murphy to get inspired to win again, it will take a 1973 finish for the Mets to make it the playoffs this year.
Along the way the Mets should trade Mike Piazza and get someone who can actually play a position besides just hit.
At least both the Cubs and Redsox are still having seasons where someone can still stand up and root for them.
Let's go Cubs!

Hey...I know a team that plays at Wrigley Field in Chicago that could really use a Mike Piazza right about now...after all, the backstop at Wrigley is really close to home plate, so it doesn't really matter whether he can catch or not ;-)
Go Cubs!
