Top to bottom, the most complete team in Major League Baseball.

Jose Reyes: Only the second man ever to hit for the cycle and have a three homer game in the same season.

Paul LoDuca: I remember when he was a September callup for the Dodgers years back. I was watching a game in Shea saying "Who the hell is Paul LoDuca?" The very next pitch, he hits a home run. Coming back from bad press to have a damn good season.

David Wright: What else can you say. 24-110-.308

Carlos Beltran: M.V.P. 40 HRs coming off of a season in which he only hit 16. He also has 114 RBIs.

Carlos Delgado: 38 Homeruns. This is the Manny/Papi of 2006.

Shaun Green: The New Guy is paying off well for us so far. Sure, his best years are behind him statistically speaking, but he is doing exactly what Xavier Nady had been doing before he got traded. Stepped in when we needed him.

Roleplayers....Julio Franco...who knew, Jose Valentin, Endy Chavez, and Lastings Milledge

Starters
Glavine, Pedro, Trachsel, and El Duque~!

Darren Oliver stepped in whenever we needed him. At the beginning of the year, he was thinking about hanging it up.

Chad Bradford and Aaron Heilman...great set ups for Billy Wagner. Billy the Kid's still ringing 98 MPH.

This will be the team to beat this year. Let's Go Mets!
