Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

In 2004, the New York Mets finished 20 games under .500. Two years later, they were the N.L. East champs and finished just one game away from the World Series. In this fun and insightful book, beat reporter Adam Rubin chronicles the rebirth of this beloved franchise. General manager Omar Minaya worked around the clock to sign free agents Pedro Martinez and Carlos Beltran and then, in 2006, traded for Carlos Delgado and Paul Lo Duca. These players, along with future Hall of Famer Tom Glavine and young phenoms Jose Reyes and David Wright, helped turn a struggling team into a pennant contender. The author takes us up to the thrilling postseason series with the Dodgers and Cardinals, culminating in one of the most exciting Game Sevens in recent memory. Fans are sure to enjoy reliving the team's turnaround as they look ahead to what promises to be an exciting future for the Amazin' Mets!

Top review from the United States

Philip Higa
3.0 out of 5 stars Great coverage, but little in the way of "insider information"
Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2007

I love Rubin's work for the Daily News. I liked this book. I was expecting a little more insight, insider info, etc. but it read more like a recap of the events of the signings, season, and now the post-season. If you follow the team closely (read all the NY paper websites, watch the games, wander through the Mets forums) then there isn't much here that you probably already didn't know.
