This is the best the National League can throw at us.  The second best team in the National League came to town this week and walked away with their bird tail between their legs.

Carlos Beltran was the hero on Tuesday.  He hit a two run walk off homerun to give the Mets an 8-7 win.  Not to be outdone, Carlos Delgado did his part as well.  He homered twice and drove in five runs.  John Maine was shelled and Aaron Heilman picked up the win.

Wednesday was more of the same.  Steve Trachsel won despite giving up six runs.  Jose Reyes hit his fifteenth homerun and he drove in three runs and stole two bases.  Chris Woodward drove in three runs in the 10-8 beat down.

Dave Williams got the job done for us yesterday.  He gave up two runs on seven hits and one walk with four strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings pitched.  Carlos Delgado hit a two run shot and Carlos Beltran scored twice in the 6-2 win.

Yawn, when do the playoffs start?  The Mets magic number is 22, so we’re getting close to clinching.  Next up is three against the Phillies, who have clawed their back into the playoff mix.
