You Know What Off Days Mean...

Is it me or did this roadtrip seem like the Mets were gone for 3 weeks? There were enough ups and downs to fill an entire month of baseball...the Mets packed it into 9 days. Thanks guys.

After the terrible start to this trip to go 5-5 is more than acceptable. You would have hoped for better, but it is what it is. What did we expect from a still fatigued John Maine backed up by the "B" Mets today? A run or two would have been nice, but I didn't anticipate a win this afternoon.

Thankfully these off days have been coming at the right time; right after a stretch when the Mets put us through the ringer. The Mets can't read the calendar as they thought today was the off day, but hey, at least the Phillies lost.

So if you've been reading, you know how I feel about off days. They throw them in there to give players a break..but we need a break too. Use today to turn off the Mets. Don't get worked up and relax. I'll stick to my trend and pay no attention to the Mets today. Rest up Mets fans...we're going to need our energy down the stretch!
