Tom Seaver Fan Club

The term Willie Randolph used was “special season.”  Honestly, I have to agree with him.  I know the Braves have won the division every season since this year’s highschool freshman weren’t even born yet, but I think they’re living on borrowed time.  Somehow the Braves patched things together last year, but this year it’s time for a changing of the guard.

And the Mets made all the right moves.  The only trade I’m still questioning was the Kris Benson trade.  I thought our pen was solid enough and you’re giving up a known commodity/middle rotation starter.  But this team should hit with the addition of Carlos Delgado.  I’m also expecting Carlos Beltran to get back up close to 30 homeruns this season.

When I start the 1986 Mets diary, I’m hoping for a parallel story to follow with the Mets winning their first World Series in 20 years.  It’d be nice to follow two winners.
