What a Weekend

With what has been going on with the Mets organization the past couple of years, this probably will go down as one of the best weekends the Mets have had in quite some time.

Three straight victories over the World Champion St. Louis Cardinals.  Only one run allowed over the three games.  Three wins by the stating pitching.  Two complete game shutouts to start the series.  And the club's first no-hitter on Friday night.

The team is in a three way tie at top the NL East.  They have one more game this afternoon, weather pending, against the Cardinals before a first place show down with the Nationals in Washington mid-week.

The young guns are contributing.  Duda, and Nieuwenhuis, and Murphy, and Thole are all beginning to warm up and slap the ball around.  The older guys in Wright and Torres are continuing to make plays and get on base.  The starting staff has gone deep into games, giving their team a chance to win and also giving the bullpen some much needed rest.

The team is believing.  The fans are believing.  It's only a third of the way through, so there is still a lot that is needed to be accomplished.  But it's been a great third so far.  On to bigger and better.
