The New York Mets are one of the top teams to watch in the National League this season.  After their high hopes were dashed by injuries and a tough ending to the 2007 season, Mets fans are still optimistic the team will make a strong run in the post-season this year.  Led by the veteran leadership of Moises Alou, the pitching of Pedro Martinez and the hitting of David Wright, the Mets may prove to be the team to beat this year.  Don’t miss any of the action as fans fill Shea Stadium for its final year of baseball!

The New York Mets play baseball in the East Division of Major League Baseball’s National League.  The Mets franchise was founded in 1962 and named after another baseball club, the New York Metropolitans who played in the late 1800’s.  The Mets would win World Series titles in 1969 and 1986.  The Mets have off and on been stuck with (and at times even cultivated) a “lovable loser” image.  The current team, however, means business and with a strong lineup and a new stadium in the works, the Mets have a bright future ahead.

The New York Mets currently play in Shea Stadium in Queens, New York.  A new stadium has already been begun next door.  Citi Stadium will open for the 2009 season and will architecturally be a nod to old Ebbetts Field from the outside.  The stadium will be a flagship inner city stadium for Major League Baseball and will be a good home for the beloved Mets.  Buy New York Mets tickets today and watch the team fight for the top spot in the city and a long playoff run!
