Optimistic Mets Fan is a heavily biased blog written by a passionate Mets fan.\u00a0 I try to make fair arguments and research the facts and stats, but my perspective is always going to be one of a Mets fan, which means I’ll be dismissive of the Yankees and Phillies and any other rivals the Mets may create.\u00a0<\/p>\n
You won’t find conspiracy theories about clubhouse divides, Dodger tributes, or anything else that people speculate that goes on behind closed doors.\u00a0 I won’t tell you the season is over on May 15th.\u00a0 I don’t pencil in the Phillies or the Yankees for division titles before the games have been played and I don’t assume Oliver Perez is going to go 2.2IP with\u00a0seven walks every outing.<\/p>\n
You will find articles and posts about all manner of things, from things I think would be fun to do to or at Citi Field, to a breakdown of a series against the Nationals.\u00a0 I may dig into some stats to see if I can find a positive story about what the Mets are doing as a team, and I may look for interesting tidbits about how Joe Torre set the record for most times grounded into a double play in one game while with the Mets.\u00a0 I won’t hestitate to criticize things I think need it, whether it’s the manager, the general manager, a player or even the fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
