The New York Mets swept an abbreviated two-game series from the Philadelphia Phillies this week, but I think the bigger news is that the teams were able to play two out of three after Monday’s snow out.

Mets’ catcher Travis d’Arnaud made his trip to spring training memorable this year. He and his traveling companions spent 9 days driving across the country in a 30-foot RV, d’Arnaud told Daily News writer Anthony McCarron.

We’ve got one more day before the World Series starts, and I got a package of Mets baseball cards from Twitch today.
So let’s take a look at some of the baseball cards of our 2015 National League Champions.
We start off with a pair of shiny Captain David Wrights… the card on the left commemorates Wright’s performance in 2006… I hope there will be some more to celebrate this week.
