If you want to compare the Mets and the Athletics the A's are the worst. Sadly it's because Moneyball just went too far. This was a playoff team a few years ago and not they have stripped the team down to bare bones. Oh don't get me wrong I am thrilled that we swept them over the weekend and we are playing very well against quality teams. We beat the Padres 2/3 and just beat the Dodgers last night. To add a bit of insult to injury the A's celebrated their 1973 World Series victory over the Mets on Sunday. Who cares? The A's are the laughing stock and the fans come out to entertain each other in a circus atmosphere. The Mets are on a roll now and have to keep it going. Baty is up and he is here to stay and Alvarez needs to get it going so the team has an infield that is almost entirely homegrown. But even at that we got Lindor for homegrown talent in Jimenez and Rosario. Lets Go Mets.
