If you follow Major League Baseball and know anything about it, you would know that the New York Mets have been impressing and stunning all of those teams out there over the past few months.

“This team just doesn’t know how to lose,” said by Gary Cohen, one of the SNY commentators. That quote is definitely describing the Mets successful season.

Ever since Wilmer Flores had the trade scare a few months ago where he was tearing up and crying on the field and the Mets acquired Yoenis Cespedes, Juan Uribe and Kelly Johnson, things have definitely turned around for the Mets.

Starting out with an 11 game winning streak back in the spring, the Mets had a good look ahead for the season. All of a sudden, they hit a cold streak, losing many games in late spring and the Washington Nationals took the division lead.

Once the roster was switched around and the players got into a groove, the Mets took the lead in the division and currently have a 8.5 game lead over the Nationals.

The Nationals weren’t living up to the high expectations and the Mets took off, building a lead that the Nationals probably won’t be able to get over  in the next few weeks and they were stunning a lot of fans all over the country.

Many people have realized that there have been a lot more orange and blue all over New York and not as much pinstripes for the Yankees. Even at away games, the Mets fans are out cheering the opponents’ fans.

There has been a lot of talk about all of the fans that are coming out now to Mets game because of their success.

This is a big change from the team that the Mets used to be when they won the 1986 championship.

Since then, the Mets haven’t really made a comeback to try and get their crown back.

This year, the Mets have a big chance to make it to the World Series.

With players like Curtis Granderson, who has made a big contribution to the team with his speed and agility, David Wright with his return, and Cespedes, who has been hitting home runs like there is no tomorrow, the Mets will be dangerous in the postseason.

Bartolo Colon also pitched a complete game which was the first time a Mets pitcher did that this season.

Travis d’Arnaud has made an impact as a catcher and hitting bombs over the outside fence.

This team knows how to make a huge comeback in games as well.

For example, on Sunday September 13, the Mets had a series against the Atlanta Braves and during the last game of the series, the Mets made one of the most exciting comebacks in history.

While down 7-4 in the top of the ninth inning, Ruben Tejada hits a ball in between center field and right field.

The center fielder ran over, dove for the ball and it slipped out of his glove once he hit the ground to give Tejada a double.

Two batters later, with a man on first and second, Daniel Murphy hits a bomb over the center field fence to tie the game at 7 with 2 outs in the last inning.

In the tenth inning, with 2 outs and a man on first and third, Kevin Plawecki hits a grounder to third in which the third baseman threw the ball to second for the force out and the second basemen stepped off the bag while trying to catch the throw so the runner was called safe. In the process of that play, Kirk Nieuwenhuis was able to get home to score the leading run.

The Braves were having some pitching problems here and there and walked a few batters in to give the Mets a 10-7 win to sweep the Braves at Turner Field.

With only a few more weeks left in the regular season, the Mets are almost locked in for first place in their division and it looks like there is going to be a bright future for New York in the post season and beyond.
