1. Since all of the Mets games have been divisional, a lot of those losses for the other teams are to the Mets.
2. Those "cupcakes" are the teams the Mets are competing with for a division title and a playoff spot, so...fine with me.

That is our direct competition, so I'm happy they aren't wholly difficult teams.

The braves we expected have arrived
The Nationals will rebound and get hot at some point. They're still probably the best team overall in this division, at least when Harper's not missing six weeks after running into a wall.
But every win counts equally in the standings and if the Mets are in a pennant race at the end of the year, this winning streak will be a big reason why.

Max is just intimidated by pitching in the NL. When you step into the batters box for the first time it changes everything. So much more is asked of you. Everything you thought you knew about pitching goes out the window.....
At least they were kind enough to let their fans down early on.

Bartolo gonna pitch as long as Jamie Moyer?
Not sure, but I don't see any reason he couldn't keep pitching for another year or two after this.

I think the Marlins have a chance to rebound too. Even though we got swept by the Mets, all four games were winnable games. Alvarez should be coming back soon, and Fernandez is still on track to come back in June or July.

Way to go, Mets!
LOL. The runner just froze seeing his whole life flash by him.
Edit: Forgot the Dodgers are already playing.

Is this the moment when Donnie realizes he should start Guerrero?
I know it won't.

Our infield is too crowded. And them experts were talking out the outfield. Wrong!!
Dude is the first month ROTY easily. But no, he won't change his mind most likely.
As much talent as we have, the Dodgers have a new pitcher I've never heard of every day, lol. Need Ryu and Kenley back, dammit. At least this guy Bolsinger had a great outing so kudos to him.
In my 2015 OOTP save, I got Strasburg as a FA some years down the line. Kershaw, Strasburg, Grienke is a pretty nice 1-2-3 punch.
We also have Kikè Hernadez who hasn't come up yet. Was playing really good in spring training.

Thank you Howie.
Yep. Last year.
I don't see Corey segar coming up this year. I'm sure he'll be our ss next year.

They recently moved him to 3b so they have plans for him there.

Surely there is a better SP available than TJ.
No money ever has been better spent than the tens of millions of dollars the Mets paid for Bartolo Colon. The man is a national treasure for ANY country.
You should donate the money you make from working at the Burger King and whatnot to Colon (that's MR. Colon to you) because he is not getting paid enough.

That Dodgers bullpen
KidA Seven

This bullpen is ridiculous.
You think Bartolo Colon would deign to eat a burger made from an animal the scums (this is you) eat?
Bartolo Colon's hamburgers come from a special animal that eats hay and poops magic rainbows.
