there is no doubt that the Mets have the best 1-7 hitters in the game.

If ARod ever figures out that he can hit again, I haven't seen a lineup with quite as much firepower as the one in the Bronx....

ARod found his hitting shoes today and they fit. 3 for 4, 1 HR, and 2 RBI's

yeah and if Sheffield can come back and be productive, and if Matsui is able to recover from his wrist thing, they have a crazy offense.

their pitching is questionable past Wang and.... but they can hit the ball....
