Mets take two from Marlins

After a disappointing extra inning loss where the Mets also lost Pedro Martinez to a hamstring injury, the Mets rebounded Wednesday crushing the Marlins 13-0.
I attended all three games and was excited to see the team play overall pretty well.
Something I am going to do this year is do a Who's Hot and Who's Not on the Mets after each series....so

Who's Hot:
David Wright
Carlos Beltran
Angel Pagan

Who's Not:
Matt Wise

Next up is a three game series with Atlanta where the Mets face former teammate and the losing pitcher in the final game of 2007, Tom Glavine. It will be an interesting game when Glavine faces his old team on Saturday.
The Braves have started a little slow but they're always dangerous.

I still believe that Duaner Sanchez is the key to this year's bullpen. I really believe that when he's able to go back to back, he'll be an important key to the bullpen. With the exception of Wise, everyone has looked good coming in from the pen. And Randolph using Schoeneweiss for lefty batters only early on is nice to see.
Maine takes the mound Friday vs the Braves and Tim Hudson. Should be a barn burner.
