For years, there has been rumors circulating that the Wilpon family lost a large sum of money from Madoff. The Wilpons have denied that they [...]

Mets face lift begins with the middle infield
Posted in Mets on November 28, 2010 | 1 Comment »
Did I just wake up from a great dream? It’s been almost two months since the 2010 season ended, and the Mets organization has transformed the organization from the top down. Some of the great franchises in the game (such as Yankees and Rays) use a group of bright front office personnel to make those important decisions [...]

The Wilpon’s have brought on board what will amount to a installing a complete new blueprint on how the organization moves forward. It will consist of a team of a thinkers led by Alderson [...]

Things Going Wright

As the Mets had one of their worst offensive seasons in team history in 2009 scoring only 671 runs, with only 95 HRs. As, compared with 799 runs and 172 HRs the previous year. We have former Mets executive Tony Bernazard to blame, but when David Wright goes yard to the right side for the [...]
Bay City Rollers

It has certainly been a curious case, for free agent Jason Bay, in his first time on the free agent market. He had been offered big money by the Red Sox to lock him up with a franchise that is certain to be in the mix for post season play for many years to come. [...]
Gotta Take Unhittable Santana over 2 Questionable Aces
Posted in Cy Young, Marlins, Mets, National League, Padres, Rotisserie on April 19, 2009 | 2 Comments »
For one of my NL only fantasy squads, how to approach the availability of several top tier starting pitchers was something I wrestled with leading up to the auction draft this April.

For the last few years, all we have been hearing out of the Mets farm system is about Fernando Martinez as the next big thing. Somewhere along the way last season, the Mets untouchable prospect Martinez (in the Santana trade negotiations) got passed by a pair of lower level minor league outfielders, who did not [...]
Our Lives Change Due To Friends Of Youth

In growing up in the suburbs in New York, the friends I had sure influenced my love of sports. Unlike the days of today with kids in year round school, the summers were long and you had to find something to do to pass the time. One summer we decided we would become the kids [...]
Reyes passed by Hanley
Posted in Around the Web, Marlins, Mets, World Baseball Classic on March 7, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
