Standings, beat reports, and a look ahead to June

The Mets and Nationals won yesterday, while the Braves, Marlins and Phillies lost.



To read more about yesterday's win over the Padres, check out this post from MetsBlog.com, as well as beat reports from MLB.com, the Wall Street Journal, Star-Ledger, Bergen Record, ESPN,Newsday, the Daily News and New York Post.

The Mets open a three-game series with the Phillies this afternoon at Citi Field, with Jon Niese facing Cole Hamels at 1:10 pm.


Here is the next month ahead, in which the Mets play nine of their next ten series against teams with a record of .500 or better:

So far in 2012, the Mets are 17-13 this season against teams with a .500 record or better; 10-8 against teams with a .500 record or below.


Michael Baron: The Mets did what they had to do against the Pirates and Padres ' they took five of seven but thanks to an untimely mistake in the outfield last Monday, it could have been better. Their path gets a little more difficult  beginning with their series against the Phillies today if only because the competition will be consistently tough for an extended period of time. They have fared well against the better teams in the league so far, and that has been a great sign for this team. Nevertheless, we will probably learn what this team is made of and what track they'll be taking into the summer by the time they get to Chicago at the end of June.
