While you were sleeping...


While you were sleeping...


  • Pedro Martinez shredded the Atlanta Braves.

  • Duaner Sanchez was clutch.

  • Billy Wagner looked every bit the $43 million man.

  • Omar Minaya vindicated himself again with the Xavier Nady deal. X-Man has hit huge homers in back-to-back games, while Cameron and his salary seven million dollars greater than Nady's will play in a Single-A game tonight.

  • Pedro Martinez won game 200 of his career. He has the best winning percentage of any pitcher to win 200.

  • New Met Paul Lo Duca went 3-4 with a double.

  • Carlos Delgado clocked a big 2-run homer. Mike Jacobs is hitting .200.

  • The Mets got off to their best start in franchise history.

  • The Mets are 5 games ahead of the second-place Atlanta Braves and Philadelphia Phillies.

  • The formerly witty and creative marketing team went with their second choice to produce this hot record after Phil Spector was unavailable.

    Tonight's Game:
    The Vitals:
    Kyle Davies against Victor Zambrano.
    First pitch at 7:10 PM. Shea.
    TV: SNY
    Radio: WFAN

    I don't really know what to expect of this game. Davies dominated the Flushing Nine when he pitched against them last year, though rookie pitchers have fared well against the Metropolitans the past couple years. Zamby, well, he's Brian Bannister without the Kaz stigma behind him. But if he can pitch well tonight, it will undoubtedly do something to increase fan loyalty towards him. Not to mention that it will put the Mets six games up on the Bravos... in mid-April.
