Baseball season will begin this Thursday, April 7th.  There was some anxiety during the lock-out that was finally resolved.  When Steve Cohen bought the Mets, he stated he wanted a World Championship within 5 years.  The team performed poorly in 2021 with a 77-85 record.  Several player moves were made in the off-season to improve the team:
- Pitcher Max Scherzer
 - Third Baseman Eduardo Escobar
 - Outfielder Starling Marte
 - Outfielder Mark Canha
 - Pitcher Chris Bassitt
 
There has already been one setback as Jacob deGrom will be sidelined because of a stress injury in his shoulder.
The big questions are:
- Will the players perform?
 - Will injuries decimate the team?
 
- The retirement of Keith Hernandez's number
 - Old-Timers Day
