What's on my mind today?
Jose Reyes is no longer a Met, after signing a six year, $106 million contract with the Miami Marlins. (Remember when they were just the Florida Marlins?)
Look, it’s an awful lot of money, and it’s hard to blame Jose for being tempted by that amount of dough.
Still, Reyes made a mistake by not coming back [...]
…Another disappointing Mets season. But unlike some other heartbreaking years in recent memory, this season offered a few small consolations.
First off, the Mets have their first batting champion in Jose Reyes. I understand why people were bummed that he chose to sit after getting his first hit on the last day of the season – [...]
Here’s how much of an eternal optimist I am: I choose to believe in the Mets this year.
Now I know, any baseball prognosticator worth his or her salt is predicting that the Metropolitans will be battling it out with the Nationals over who will end up in the NL East cellar.
I [...]
Congratulations Terry Collins, you just got the worst job in Major League Baseball! Good luck to you!
You’re walking into a crappy situation – the payroll is over-inflated, you’ve got injuries to deal with, and the players that are healthy aren’t playing to their true potential.
And yet, you will be expected to win. [...]
It was another disappointing season for the Mets, and another year where the playoffs are, as far as I’m concerned, canceled. (Let’s go every team besides the Yankees, Phillies, and Braves!)
Manuel and Minaya are gone, and there could be (and should be, according to this guy) some major housecleaning going on this off-season. It would [...]
Remember just a month ago, when the Mets were in serious contention for a playoff spot? They were in striking distance of the evil Braves, and they even had the lead in the wild-card race for a nice stretch. And this was all without Beltran! It looked like the Mets could really [...]
It’s another year, and while the Mets are entering the year with plenty of questions, I am -like always – cautiously optimistic. Plus, no one actually expects the Mets to seriously contend his year, which could be a good thing – odds are far better they will exceed expectations, instead of failing to acheive [...]
Great news! The 2010 Mets will be correcting at least one mistake of the 2009 season – they’re reinstating the Six Pack! For years, me and various pals had bought the Six (and later Seven) Packs as ways to get together a few times over the summer, see a handful of games each season (usually [...]
A Phillies-Yankees World Series is just about the worst thing that could happen to a Mets fan. It’s like G-d himself hates the Mets and is out to punish not only them, but their fans. Or it’s like that guy from the Saw movies has come up with a new horrific kind of [...]
…At least the Mets can’t blow their postseason chances on teh last day of the season for a third consecutive year!
Cuz that would have just been devastating.
Although, collapsing early on in the season isn’t that much better.
I have been very far removed from baseball this year – with moving out and moving in [...]
