The Mets

There were few players or fans for that matter that would have seen this coming. The New York Mets in the Driver seat when it comes to their own destiny. Was this not a team that just a few years ago were on the brink of blowing up and self-destructing?

There is no real explanation that is able to be given as to why this team has seen the type of playing potential that they have, some people attribute this to the fact that the team is more focused as there is new management that is in place that will make the team more of a unit and less a group of players that happen to all play baseball.

The new pitching coach has given the team an increased sense of purpose in the fact that they are now able to get better accuracy with their pitching as well as not over doing it in their workouts. This has helped the bullpen overcome a lot of the issues that they had been experiencing when they were on the field.

This is a direct result of the new sense of displine that the team has in the past few months. There is a new pitching coach, and he expects all players to adhere to the rules. This has led to the bullpen being a strong part of the team and being able to carry the team on its shoulders alone.

Depending on who you talk to, will depend on what the answer will be as to the impact that the Mets will have in the second half of the season. There are several experts that see this as being a short lived burst that the team is experiencing for the moment.

The others say that this is the beginning of something a lot bigger in the way that the team is poised to win more games and as a result increase their standing in professional baseball. Regardless of what your opinion of the team is, there is little arguing the fact that at least the first part of the season has been one that will be rembered as the best in years.

If this will continue or not is yet to be seen, what is known is that there is plenty of baseball left to play and the Mets are the master of their own destiny? The more that they try this season, the better the results will be.

The end of the first half of the season is quickly approaching; there will be a lot of interest as to what will the second half of the season hold in store for the Mets and their playoff hopes. The one thing that is certain is that now is as good a time as any to be a Mets fan, and there is a sense of urgency in the team's efforts. This can be a team that later in the season leaves a lot of the fans and other teams guessing as to what will happen next.
