At various, likely random intervals throughout the season, I will be updating the New York Mets 2012 Hope-O-Meter. This meter, which has a standard 0-10 scale, will represent the optimism of the Mets faithful that the season won’t be a huge embarrassing failure. Well, after a somewhat impressive 1-0 win over the Atlanta Braves, the official Hope-O-Meter reading is a stellar 7.25.
