Looks like Beltran is on the block for the right numbers. I thought he may have been passed over.

Reyes is back (another multi hit game), Gee looks good and the Mets win 4-2 against the Cardinals.

If Reyes and Beltran look so good, why does upper management want to trade them? Is saving a few bucks really more important than wins when these two (and Wright) are healthy?

Angel Pagan saves the day...hits a walk-off HR in the bottom of the 10th as we beat the Cards 6-5. Puts us a game over .500.

Mets "hold on" to beat the Marlins 7-6 last night. Wright looked good for his first game back.

Mets drop one to the Marlins late again...winning 2-0 and can't hold on. And the bullpen had been looking alright. Reyes was 3-5, with 3 runs scored.

Bullpen reared it's ugly head again today and blew the lead as we lost 5-4 to the Marlins. Parnell gets a blown save and the loss.

Washington loses as well today...so we remain a game ahead of them and still in third place.

The bullpen hangs on to one last night and the Mets beat the Reds 4-2, puts us back at .500.

Bullpen holds onto another one and the Mets beat the Reds 8-6. Another series win.

Splitting 2 of 4 isn't a series win!
(Edit: I guess it's a win for Met fans)
Don't jump the gun, Beltran may not be around to help you get the next 2!
Pelfrey and Capuanno aren't exactly aces!

Then again, it could be argued that Beltran wasn't one either, at least for the Mets.

Although I am glad to finally see Beltran leave town...the Mets got boned again!!

As the 33rd best prospect in baseball, he is ranked higher than any prospect in the entire Met organization.

Not sure what you wanted for a 34yr old, often injured, 2 month rental player!

Nothing wrong with acquiring young arms, especially when Mike Pelfrey is your #1 starter!
