Things Going Wright
Posted in Around the Web, Mets, Minors, Prospects on March 5, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
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 | Leave a Comment »
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. With Santana available, I knew he would go for some big money. The thing I kept kicking around was would I be better [...]
Hey Murph

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 »
As Jose Reyes was the original power-speed combo at shortstop. Now, Hanley Ramirez who is younger with similar skills has surpassed Reyes in the box scores, and now as the starting SS in the World Baseball classic. So much for Ramirez being Jose Reyes lite. He is the real deal.
Kent: The David Cone throw in
Posted in Giants, Hall Of Fame, Indians, MLB, MVP, Mets, Trade on January 24, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
It was with the Toronto Blue Jays that Jeff Kent first came on the radar. He had some pop even back then with his bat when the Blue Jays were giving him some play at 3B. The Mets did the unthinkable and traded the player who meant so much to the team in David Cone. [...]
Bubbly Part Two

CC meets with Mr. October Reggie Jackson and it looks like it did the trick as it convinced him to take the money. It’s not clear if CC was just conducting business by meeting with all these other teams or if he was serious about taking less money. Never the less, by showing interest in [...]
Pop Some Bubbly

After weeks of waiting, several players finally made up their minds and signed on the dotted line with new teams. Fransisco Cordero the top closer on the free agent market signed a 3 year deal at a figure around 37 million with the N.Y. Mets. This deal is significant because he signed at a reduced [...]
