Very Offensive

In the sense that the offense has gone bye bye the last two series. 

About a week ago the Mets went to the higher air of Denver and a series against the Rockies seemed to do wonders for the offense.  But in the two series since, at Houston and at home against Arizona, the offense has gone pretty flat.  That's evident because they ended up losing the first four of those games.

Luckily, the Mets were fortunate enough to get outstanding pitching from both Johan Santana and RA Dickey the last two days and were able to get Ws in both of them.

Here's hoping that the offense can respond again due to their next stop on the map.  Heading down to Philadelphia for a few days, the Mets do face some quality pitching but will also be swinging the bats in a hitter friendly park. 

The big boys have to get going.  David Wright's been slapping some singles around, but power is needed.  Lucas Duda should hopefully have his timing back from his missed games and be a huge stick in the middle while Ike Davis is still looking for his stroke, still looking for his groove.

They dropped to .500 last week and due to their recent pitching, they've remained above it for the entire season.  Now it's time for the O to prove it's worth and help push them further away from that line.
