Watching the game, 2

The key, ultimately, is getting five a game from the starters and taking advantage of Cardinal mistakes. Mistakes, though, are likely to be few — LaRussa’s teams always play the right way.

I like the Mets’ balance and I have to wonder about the Cards’ bullpen, which did very well against the Padres. But the Padres were the weakest offensive team in the playoffs. The Mets were the best in the NL.

I’m confident, but I am a Mets fan. So, I’m always on edge.
