Mets Future: Wright, Reyes Should be Co-Captains
Too Many people, in my opinion, prefer Wright over Reyes. Many more people will tell
you they’d rather have Wright as a captain if they had a choice between Wright and Reyes.
David Wright is an amazing third baseman who was selected to the All-Star Game and had an outstanding Home Run Derby, breaking records for most home runs in the first round.
Reyes, who is younger than Wright, made his Major League Debut before David Wright. Jose Reyes, who is energized 24/7, led the major leagues in steals (64) and triples (17), while he also had many more home runs than expected from him, 19. He cracked three homeruns in one game vs. Philly last year.
Jose Reyes, in my opinion, will be controversially the best Met of all time when he retires (Piazza). ESPN the Magazine said on the cover “The Best Shortstop in NY…” referring to Reyes, saying that he is a better shortstop than Jeter, and Reyes is only in the beginning of his career.
As good as Wright is, more people, especially Met Fans, need to realize Reyes’ ability.
Wright and Reyes need to be Co-Captains on the Mets. They represent the Franchise.
David Wright and Jose Reyes have the best 3B-SS tandem in the Major Leagues, and that will stay that way for a very long time. As they grow up and develop their skills, they will win world series together with the Mets. Throughout that time, the Mets will have taken
over the spotlight for the best baseball team in the state of New York. The Yankees are declining in several ways. Ever since the Mets cursed the Yanks in the Subway Series, the Yankees haven’t won it since. They were pushed around by the D-Backs in the ‘01 WS, along with the Marlins killing the Yankees in ‘03 and then in ‘04, the Red Sox made the best comeback in sports history, down 3 games to 0 in game 4. The Yankees never won a playoff series since. The last baseball team in New York to win a playoff series is the New York Mets. Who’d have thought that in ‘04?
The Mets are a juggernaut, the Yankees can’t even win a playoff series. The Yankees will see for themselves this upcoming season.
Let’s Go Mets.

Lets go mets and i love the pic. Its funny to see a yankee dude mad. Jose Reyes is the best New York Met by far but he still has a long way to go before becoming an Mike Piazza. David Wright certaintly has chance to be a great met too.
LETS GO METS,
