Are the Mets destined to be a .500 team??

Remember to check out our homepage my team rivals

The New York Mets lost last night to the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-4.

The loss showed many of the teams flaws; lack of ability to hold a lead (the Mets were up 4-1), lack of clutch hitting....the Mets were 2-14 with runners in scoring position, lack of focus...Ryan Church losing site of a ball that bounced off his glove and just sitting there while runners advanced (although in fairness to Church, he did make a great effort and hit the wall pretty good...but what the heck, I am trying to make a point here).

I am sad to say it, but I believe that absent some major changes to the team, we are just about a .500 club. As I have said often, it isn't just about this season, look back over the final thirty games of 2007, combine it with 2008, and you get a mediocre ball club.
