Matsui & Reyes

Am I the only one that has noticed the bond between the Mets double play combo. They have a secret hand shake for everything. Ever since Jose has been back with the big club Matsui has been on fire at the dish and playing a much better defense. Some may say this is just coincidence but the two players seem to have a stronger bond. No I am not saying they are gay.. I am saying that it seems like Jose inspires Matsui to be a better player and have more fun. Matsui very easily could of folded up tent and started to mope around now the Reyes is up but his attitude is infectious.

For all those folks that were saying Jose was tanking it and was not really hurt just watch the young man play the game. He loves it and has a passion for it that inspires others around him. Reyes does not seem the type to make up or prolong injuries he just loves the game too damn much.

As for the Mets I stick to my prediction of winning the division if you take the team apart they have talent. And with a surging Matsui and a Reyes starting to find his feet what a fun pair of middle infielders we will have the pleasure of watching over the next few years.
