Tim Kurkjian of ESPN has been at the Mets camp, head on over to check out his take on how the team’s dealing with last years…less than desirable outcome. Tim looks at how attitudes have changed and talks with Mets including Wright, Beltran and Wagner. From the chief himself, Willie Randolph:

“I’ve answered this question a million times. My initial reaction [to the breakdown] was devastating. But I’m way, way, way past it now.”

Hopefully the team will strive, work hard and succeed this season, if for no other reason than everyones probably tired of talking about The Great Collapse That Shalt Not Be Named (trademark pending, Hotfoot).  But from Wright dropping down his endorsement and promotional schedule, to Reyes aiming to be more proffesional in the dugout, to Beltran stepping up to the mic and being vocal, it seems this team does mean business. Now…come on April, hurry up I need some real baseball.
