Okay, so I must have died and woke up in bizzarro world because as much as this is fact it is still hard to believe.

The Mets are having a great season. Florida got hot recently and the Braves have lost the last 17 out of 21 games including 8 straight. It doesn’t get any easier in the schedule either. After the Blue Jays series it goes: @Tampa, @Yankees, then home vs Baltimore, St Louis, and then Cincinnati. This will mark the All Star break. The Braves need to win 60 percent of these games. It doesn’t look good. But I live in Michigan so according to Darren, I am supposed to root, live, and die by the results from the home team. At least in this case, this year, that’s the Tigers who are actually playing pretty good. Like I still say, It’s early yet.
