He's All Alone Here

Jose Reyes hit for the cycle in June. It was the first time the Mets ever lost a game in which a Met cycled.

Jose Reyes hit three home runs tonight. It was the first time the Mets ever lost a game in which a Met hit three home runs.

Jose Reyes will throw the first no-hitter in Mets history tomorrow and will lose on an error by Chris Woodward.

Jose Reyes will turn eight unassisted triple plays on Thursday and the Mets will lose on a fly ball mishandled by Lastings Milledge.

Jose Reyes will walk, steal second, third and home four times on Friday and the Mets will lose 5-4 because they were no-hit.

Jose Reyes will fill in for Darryl, Doc, Davey and Ray at Old Timers Night on Saturday, retroactively win the 1986 MVP award and the Mets will lose the World Series to the Red Sox. They'll also lose to the Rockies despite Jose Reyes' five inside-the-park homers.

Jose Reyes will break ground on the new ballpark, construct it to make it triple-friendly and triple nine times Sunday and the Mets will lose when he passes Mike DiFelice on the basepaths during his last triple.

Jose Reyes will sit out next Tuesday. Then maybe the Mets will win.
