From the “you know things are tough when …” department:
The Mets have three players — Jose Reyes, Chris Young, and Chris Capuano — with a batting average higher than their winning percentage. Normally, that would be good news. Unfortunately, that’s awful news, considering the team’s current winning percentage is .294.

Two are pitchers, one is on the DL.
“Normally, that would be good news.”
Really? It would be good news to never have a winning percentage above .400 at the end of the year?
