Mets set to start Homestand after Successful Roadtrip

The news around the majors was quite abundant this past week with the Clemens signing and that pitcher up in Boston who can’t seem to keep his mouth shut (I won’t name names). As for as I’m concerned, the Yankees can have Clemens at that much of a premium because the fact of the matter is, I don’t want him. I just don’t agree with allowing a guy to start a 1/3 of the way into the season with a clause in his contract that allows him to miss games in which he doesn’t pitch to be with his family. And as far at “that Red Sox pitcher” goes, I don’t listen to a word he says anyway because most of it is just lackluster dribble. Even his manager is calling for a muzzle on this guy.
On to the Mets. I still can’t believe they got Shawn Green and Tom Glavine to shave their heads but who’s complaining after a 5-2 road trip. If you haven’t seen them yet, I recommend checking out the size of Green’s ears.
The series with the Giants was exciting….Glavine got his 294th win, even on a night where he gave up Bonds’ 745th. Then Wright’s double in the ninth on Thursday capped off a come from behind victory to take the game and the series from the Giants.
The Mets start a tough homestand tonight squaring off against the league leading Breweres. The Cubs and the Yankees come to town after that. Jorge Sosa gets the start tonight at 7:10 pm.
