The most predominant question in my mind has been if the Mets have the fire within them to succeed. For whatever reason, to me, it seems like the Mets of September have simply just carried over into 2008. They’re not playing with the same zest and enthusiasm that they played with in 2006 and most of 2007.Obviously, the Mets do have a fire and a passion. If they didn’t, they...

Hopefully, Ollie will get his head...

We have seen a few stinkers in the early going, but the promise and hope of something special is clearly evident too. The Mets need a...
