I do not know about everyone else and I am sure you will agree, but I cannot watch our beloved Mets, as banged up as they may be, not show up to the ballpark and get blown out. At least try to score runs. They just look clueless out there. Someone besides Santana and KRod needs to pitch decent. Parnell was good until

After losing 8-0 and almost letting the next game slip away, the Mets held on. We are playing the Dodgers and they are pretty good. We could have folded the tents and gone home. I am not going to get involved with facts and figures this time, I am just happy we w

this may be the worst Mets team ever assembled. and that does not include the injuries that have piled up. omar minaya has put together the softest, heartless, lack of clutch team money could buy. for the past 3 years he has continued to plug the roster with older players, pitchers beyond their prime, and an over abunda

I know a lot of people are bashing on Minaya now. Some are certainly justified and some I think are either overstated or just plain short-sighted. One of the lightening rods from this off season was that we didn't sign Hudson - he went with Cora instead. Although most people thought (and still continue to think) that was a mistake, there were a few trumpeting bringing in a guy who could play both

They should have played Gloria Gaynor's hit "I Will Survive" tonight. They held on, turning a DP on a terrific clutch hitter.
Tonight was overall pretty good. Let's take a look...
*Daniel Murphy made one of the greatest plays of the year tonight. A ground ball h

So Manuel has Fernando Tatis playing 1B tonight!?!?!
There is no greater Tatis lover out there than I, but I have to question why he isn't relegated solely to a pinch hitting role. His bat is inconsistent, he had DP-itis for awhile and he just isn't hitting.
Starting lineups for the time being

The following is addressing the current GM of the Mets and my feelings about this team and his leadership. I am so utterly disgusted, I
need to say this and not have it in dribs and drabs over this terrific Mets site. It's obvious from my posts in virtually every thread, that I believe Omar must go if this team comes up short.

The Mets year to date have walked 327 batters, which is behind only the Nationals and Indians, who are the two worst teams in baseball. The Mets have played 83 games, so we are averaging 3.93 walks per game. Issuin

By no surprise, I'm talking about the Mets offense. 22 consecutive scoreless innings, that's almost 2.5 games without scoring a single run. Can someone say "pathetic". During those 22 innings, the mets have managed 10 hits, all singles.
During this 4 game losing streak, the Mets have hit. 183 an

There's been a lot of dialogue on this board regarding the Mets and if they're done. Over the past couple months I've taken the glass half empty mindset and there are some guys who have felt the same way as me, while others took the glass half full mindset. I think after the

So I have been just sitting back and reading of late, the "Mets are fielding a AAA team", "The Mets need to get some one NOW", "David Wright can not carry this team" and so on. I could be wrong here but the problem is not just the lack of power, team play or leadership. Tony La Russa has had a lot less to work

That's the state of this offense. The Phillies pitchers look like Cy Young winners against this line-up. 2 losses, 3 runs and only Santana spares them another humiliating sweep. 39-40, 3 back and in 4th place. Offensive.
The Mets have 8 games until the break. It's obvious

Many of us Mets fans out there have debated back and forth whether Omar Minaya is to blame for the mess this team is in and whether or not he should be fired. Lets take a look at what he has done since he has become the GM and you decide for yourself (compiled from mutliple resources- thanks to all who made this collection of info possible.

I'm going to give you 22 reasons. I'll start by simply receiting last night's Philies-Reds score, which happened to be 22-1.
(1)The Phillies scored 22 runs against a team who was sending to the mound a guy with the 3rd lowest ERA in baseball.
(2)It was 10-0 after 1 inning, 16-0 after 4 innings.
(3)They scored 6 r
