Good times
The Mets have won eight of nine, Mike Pelfrey looks like Tom Seaver and the Braves are terrible. Life is good at Shea these days, and is about to get even better with the return of Ryan Church this weekend, though the Mets will take it slow with their concussed rightfielder.
As manager Jerry Manuel described it yesterday, there's no need to rush him back to an everyday role. Not with the solid contribution from Fernando Tatis and the successful platoon of Nick Evans/Daniel Murphy in leftfield.
Speaking of the Mets' youth movement, even our own Wally Matthews had to admire the prowess of Pelfrey in last night's 6-3 victory over the Braves. Imagine that.

The Seaver analogy is right on...thought the same thing last night.
