Not sure how many of you out there in Mets Nation were genuinely concerned about David Wright, but it appears that the worry is over regarding the All-Star third baseman. After a dismal April, when Wright batted .244 with zero home runs and only six RBI in 24 games, he's definitely turned the corner. This month, Wright is hitting .327 (18-for-55) with four home runs and 11 RBI in just 13 games. Looks like there's no reason to melt down that wax figure at Madame Tussauds just yet.
"It's all about getting hot at the right time," Wright said after Monday's 3-for-4 night against the Cubs, "and doing your part to help the team win."
Remember, it was Wright who spurred the Mets' new buzzcut craze, and the team has won five of six since losing its hair. As for Wright, he's 10-for-23 with four doubles, two homers and six RBI after letting bullpen catcher -- and close friend -- Dave Racaniello use the electric razor on his head.

Nothing like another series against those pesky Washington Nationals to shut those idiot Braves fans up.
Can someone answer me this question please?
How does Grady Sizemore get on the cover of Sports Illustrated when that ham and egger is batting .239?
What gives?
I guess John Maine wasn't available?
Carlos Beltran was busy?
Billy Wagner was playing golf that day?
Tom Glavine declined?
Oliver Perez was too busy playing video games?
What the hell?
If there is no bias against the Mets then please clue me in.
I bet there are even people (like certain beat writers) who have the friggin Brewers in their office pool.
Well, if JJ Hardy improves your fantasy league,
and Grady Sizemore sells a paper, than thats fine.
Give me Jose Reyes, his 2007 Mvp trophy and a lot of wins baby. Lets go.
Us idiot Braves fans are enjoying our view from 1st again. We're going to be the Mets nightmare all season long. See you in October, d****ebags!
First of all, it's a d****ebag, dumask. Secondly, how come you show up any time you build a whopping 1/2 game lead, and disappear when you can't beat the NATIONALS AGAIN. Because you suck. And your team sucks. And I'll lay $50 bucks right now that your sissy team isn't within 7 games of the Mets by August.

no no no no no! we don't need the SI curse!
Rocko: my misspell of d****ebag was being a product of the Florida education system...my bad! I want to thank you d****ebag Mets fans for knowing how to spell d****ebag. To answer your question about when we blog and not blog, because it is the same reason you Mut fans talk trash with us...it's fun, both teams are the 2 best teams in the NL this year and we both think we're better than the other one. Finally, as far as a 7 game lead in August goes, if you Mut fans think that's going to be the case, you will all have another think coming. Braves are built to go the distance in '07. Get used to it!
River Alph, curse or no curse...I believe there is a bias.
Apparently ESPN believes that there is one team in new york as well. And it ain't the Mets. I say enough already. Maybe the Met PR department just isn't that aggressive now that they have there own network? Oh and Lastings has confirmed our thoughts, that he is a complete moron. Goodbye Lastings Milledge.
oops, second place Braves... time to not hear from the Braves fans again.
I notice that he didn't accept your bet, Rocko!
