Let's Go, Mets!

How about those Mets? After an 0-5 start last year I think everyone could tell that it was going to be a long, agonizing season. Then after a 6 game winning streak, it suddenly looked like the team could do good things. So what do we make of the team's hot start this year? Although it might still be a little too early to start looking ahead to playoffs and pennants, there are a few trends which are decidedly encouraging:

1. The Mets lead the league with the fewest runs allowed (41 as of this post).
2. With their series victory over the Brewers, the Amazin's solidified their credibility by beating a division leader.
3. They've proven that they can win tight games as well as laughers.
4. The abilities of Carlos Delgado and/or David Wright to deliver in the clutch
