Not getting ahead of anything here, as the O's may look like a mediocre push over, but they are "feisty", and if they do get past the O's, well the Jays are just 2 back of the Yankees and Red Sox, so they are a bonafide "tough out" but the Mets are 3 wins shy of the tying the team mark of 11 wins in a row, done 4 times previous

Mets actually won their 8th in a row today. A sweep of Baltimore will tie.

I like that the two of the previous streaks were in '69 & '86.

A series loss here might be GOOD. Non-divisional opponent (hell, non-league, so the effect is mitigated) and it would prevent the Mets from the big-headedness so prevalent around these parts.

1. Losing is never good. Some wins might be better than others but losing always sucks. 2. Big-headedness? I don't see it, at least not yet. I think everybody's fully aware of what the calendar reads. 3. If there is big-headness to be had, great! I'm all for some confidence and swagger from the players. It's been sorely missed.

Nope, that'd be worrisome. Better send all such players with out-of-whack attitudes down to Norfolk when Nady comes back.

An interesting thought, but ultimately I disagree. The only players who haven't struggled (much) at some point this season are Wright and Beltran. Everyone else has had at least one large individual slump. I think that's just as important in controlling big-headedness.
