Should David Wright be taking advice from the Cardinals?

Recently, Joel Sherman reported that Mets captain David Wright spoke with Cardinals C Yadier Molina and RHP Adam Wainwright on how the Mets can be more like the Cardinals. Are we (Mets fans) ok with this?

My answer: HELL YES! Look, we don't like the Cardinals, we hate the Cardinals. 2006 brings back nightmares overtime I close my eyes. Besides that, the Cardinals have been the class of the National League every year since. You can give me the Giants all you want, but it's the Cardinals. Four straight NLCS appearances, two world series in the past 9 years and three pennants in the last eleven.

If there is any team our captain David Wright should be getting advice from, it's the St. Louis Cardinals. Apparently, the Cardinals all band together and make the road trips the last week of spring training, as sort of a bonding experience and a final tune up. Did anyone notice yesterday, almost every regular was in the lineup during a road game? No coincidence, Wright convinced his team and his manager.

Will this work? Who knows, but it's worth a try from Wright as this team finally transitions from the dark years to hopefully the playoffs.
