according to the hype, the pitching, with the arrival of pedro, should be significantly better. but a combo of glavine and leiter should have been amazing enough, and that never really set a standard.



Leiter had a great year last year, and Glavine was pretty respectable, as well.

In any event, Pedro Martinez, even now, is the best pitcher the Mets have had since the days of David Cone, Sid Fernandez and Dwight Gooden, and they'll have Kris Benson and Victor Zambrano all year. If Glavine simply can repeat his 2004 performance, the Mets' rotation will be fine.

seeing a wrigley vs. yankee stadium match up while rocket was goin for his 300th was pretty damn cool ... i'd love to see that atmosphere duplicated in the big 7



That Wood vs. Clemens matchup was one of the most memorable regular season games I've seen. It definitely felt like a World Series game.
