There’s a lot of finger-crossing going on in Flushing these days.
Fingers crossed that Terry Collins’ six-man rotation works.
Fingers crossed that David Wright’s spinal stenosis isn’t severe enough to curtail his career.
Fingers crossed that the recent resurgence of Michael Cuddyer is a permanent thing.
Fingers crossed that the Mets have come through the fire of their recent 4-10 stretch and will get back on the horse that ran them into first place in April.
That’s a lot of fingers, enough to make a few knuckles ache.
But that is where the Mets are right now.
