ARLINGTON, Va. — Look, you can go searching for dark clouds all you want. You can play the woe-is-me game until well past closing time. You can wait anxiously for other shoes to drop, for skies to fall, for the injured list to become more crowded than the old waiting list for Giants’ season tickets.
But, honestly, what fun is that?
Isn’t it better as a Mets fan to simply channel the words general manager Brodie Van Wagenen has been peddling for months now, the ones that speak of new times, new expectations, a brand-new way of doing business?
