Can Maine Do It?

Marty Noble at Mets.com, writes about John Maine and the path he's on:

John Maine has won his first five decisions, equaling what Pedro Martinez did last year, though Martinez did it in five starts, and Maine has made six. The club record for victories without a loss at the beginning of the season is 10, by Terry Leach in 1987. He finished his season with an 11-1 record. Pat Mahomes won his only eight decisions, all in relief, in 1999. Frank Viola won his first seven starts in 1990, and Tom Gorman produced a 6-0 record in 1985.
