Corner: turned
The team is obviously getting some good starting pitching (finally) but the hitting has been impressive. We are stringing hits together and keeping the base paths moving for the first time, really, this whole season. And, it’s been for the last dozen games now, bar the Nats series, so it’s not an aberration.

What a turnaround. The bats have been great. An injection of energy from McLean and hopefully Tong is just what this staff needs. I’m really looking forward to Tong’s start. I have watched him in the minors and his stuff looks legit.
Most importantly, just like that we are only 4 back of the Phil’s and 4.5 clear of Cincy.
The August schedule looks really brutal and is almost all on the road, so let’s hope we can rack up since wins over the next few series.

It took almost 60 years for another Mets pitcher named Nolan to burst onto the scene with a blazing fastball that could overwhelm batters. This Nolan however, has a devastating curve and command and maturity that has resulted in 3 wins in his first 3 starts, something no Met, not even one named George Thomas or Dwight achieved.
It's crazy that this kid has arrived at a time the Mets needed some stability in their starting rotation in order to make a serious stretch run.
We've seen this before, whether it be Timothy Leary, or any number of live armed highly regarded prospects. For now at least, this feels different.
I remember esrly in Gooden's Met career he got battered in Chicago, but quickly recovered to resume his dominance in subsequent starts.
With the lineup suddenly clicking, McLean might just be they secret ingredient to a storybook finish.

His stats last year weren’t great (they weren’t bad). Focusing on pitching on has really helped him power forward.
Prospect and farm “rankings” are just fluid and full of guessing. Just like ESPN having Mets at #1 for the system. They are already saying the Mets will be “dropping” because the Mets have a number of MLB ready guys. Sproat, Benge, Tong and others will all be here in MLB soon. Even though that’s the object but they will fall off the rankings list. We shouldn’t get caught up in it.
Alvarez can’t get out of his own way.

Wasn’t Timothy Leary the guy who invented LSD?
who knows where this season goes from here, but as a big time Philly hater these past 3 days were glorious, and also brought up a lot nostalgic feelings of last years NLDS. Which got me excited for us potentially making the playoffs again. Maybe if we keep stacking wins we can even secure the division. Excited for this Miami series and hope we do not have a let down
