Mets embark on a crucial road trip

After a three-game sweep by Yankees that brought their record to 37-37, the Mets begin a a seven-game road trip that concludes this weekend in Philadelphia.

Nieve keeps chilling opponents' bats, holding the Cardinals scoreless on three hits in six innings to improve to 3-0 in three starts in place of the disabled John Maine. Nieve has given up just 10 hits in 20 2/3 innings as a starter this season and has lowered his ERA to 1.31. Nieve is 1-0 with a 4.00 ERA in three career appearances against the Brewers, including one start. Back on May 2, 2006, Nieve allowed four runs on six hits in seven innings at Miller Park, earning the win for the Astros.
He needs to pitch well and hold a lead (if they have one).

Mets struggling to hit, finds them 37-37 and 2.5 games out of first

They find themselves 37-37 and only 2.5 games out of first place!
Mets fans i want you to know we are still striking distance of first place.
We do need a big bat; Matt holiday, adam dunn or nick Johnson
Omar is just waiting for a call, hes not taking his time to MAKE a call.
we really need a big bat or else were in trouble, we cant afford to wait till Beltran, Reyes and Delgado come back because at that time we could be under the .500 mark and several games out of first place.
