The Mets are leading the Braves 4-1 in the third inning. If the boys from Queens hold on, they'll have swept the best team in the majors, having shutdown of the best offenses in the majors in the first two games. The Braves are putting their heavy hitters in the lineup, while the Mets appear even more rag-tag than usual with the September callups dotting the lineup. Maybe the Braves are just taking it easy, but if I'm a playoff foe, I'm going to watch the tapes of these games to see just what the Mets did.

And no, I wouldn't trade for Timo Perez and bat him third. :-)
