LISTEN: WFAN's Eddie Coleman Says Mets Confident As Nationals Series Looms Large
NEW YORK (WFAN) -- With a couple of key series against the Washington Nationals coming up, the Mets are a confident bunch, WFAN Mets reporter Eddie Coleman said Friday.
"I think they feel that they're as good or better than Washington," Coleman said on Mike Francesa's show. "And that's the race they're going to have. And that's why these series coming up -- the three (games) at Citi Field and then, of course, the three down at Washington the following week -- it's going to be real fun to watch.
