Although the Mets are off to a rocky start, let us go back to 1999 for a minute. With players like Mike Piazza, John Franco, Al Leiter, Robin Ventura, Edgardo Alfonzo and John Olerud, the Mets were led by a group of veterans who knew how to handle pressure. They led by example and motivated guys like Todd Pratt, Benny Agbayani, Timo Perez, Matt Franco, Rey Ordonez and enabled them to prosper in a time when Met fans had little hope.
In 2008, It is time for the new group of veterans to step up like: Carlos Delgado, Carlos Beltran, Moises Alou, Johan Santana and Pedro Martinez. Those guys can motivate the new guys like; Jose Reyes, David Wright, Angel Pagan, Ryan Church, Brian Schneider, and Ramon Castro.
For all of them, it is the perfect time for Met fans to rise up once again and firmly remember the last season in the ballpark that most of them grew up in.
