New York Mets Offseason WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

[KingGeno]

hypocrite.

Why you calling me a hypocrite for giving congrats to someone on their new baby daughter?

Your comments are yawn.

[BeerBandit]

So in the echo of last night's festivities at Yankee Stadium, I'm curious to see who among us is going to Shea's swan song this Sunday. I'll be there, bright and early, grilling and drinking "soda" out of Red Solo cups.

They break your balls about drinking beer around the stadium, too? They are incredibly big time pain in the asses at CitBank. We use Wendy's cups, and drink through straws.

Hi!

The wonderful JoetheBartender is giving me his tix tonight since he cannot attend... and so far myself and Hosp are going.
If any of you lovelies would like to go, there are 2 more seats left. Don't ask me where they are cause I don't know.

Yay! my first mets game all freaking year!! wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

PM me!

sincerely,

[hammersavage]

7 games to go and my fucking stomach is in knots. I want the division, no doubt, but I just want to get in. Anything can happen at that point and you'd have to play the Cubs eventually.

I conceded last Wednesday and shunned the team. After this weekend, I'm doing the same. I'll be watching a movie tonight cuz my health really can't take this.

Awesome. Although as these games go on it's getting more and more likely that it will be a somber occasion.

[Hosp]

With only 7 games left there wasn't a sell out and there was a huge showing by Cubs fans so it was kind of sad.

And they were selling a limited edition "I was there for the last series" Mets/Marlins pin for $15. I'm sure I'll be able to get it at the Clubhouse store in 5 weeks for $3.

Cubs have taken Sabathia to the wood shed a couple times this year.

It's a tough game.


The Mets better have Santana on a 200+ pitch count. Just tell him right from the start he's in from beginning to end.

I agree...it is so bad that 20 of us could try out for the bullpen with at least 10 of us making it. That is how terrible this bullpen is. The question is, IF they do get to the post-season and they go to four man rotation, which starter goes to bullpen??

As bad as Pedro is, they'd have to stick with him and bump Niese just on experience.


But I'm not sure it'll matter...do any of you guys really think the Mets, if they get in, have a chance in hell of knocking off the Cubs?

They're probably going to have to throw Santana on the last day of the season just to get in, which means they'll only get him once in that five game series.

If they had him twice...yeah...I'd give the Mets a puncher's chance in that series. But, not if he only goes once.


Don't get me wrong, though...it would have to be huge for the psyche of the Mets fans just to get in and vanquish some of that bad taste of last year.

Yeah...it takes some higher genius to spend the Wilpons money on Pedro, Beltran, Santana, Delgado, and so forth.


Minaya's always been a fraud. He made his name but ravaging the Expos minor league system because the team was suppose to be contracted.

Anyone can deal their team's entire minor league system when they've been told their team is going to fold.

And most of what he's done in New York has cut giant checks.

Outside of that, he's only given up Bannister, Milledge, Matsui, Bell, and Lindstrom with almost nothing to show for it (unless you consider Church and Schneider 'something').


So while the team's better, it's almost entirely because the Mets will throw money at anybody. Minaya hasn't done a damn thing.

Ok lets go through the players Omar has given up.

Milledge - Yea in the long term he can be something but he wore out his welcome here. Church was having an All-Star year until he was injured so bite me. and Schnieder has worked wonders with the pitchers. He has helped Pelfrey in a huge way. catchers never hit anyways.

Bell - He just couldnt pitch here. Some guys can handle NY, some cant.

Matsui - Your Kidding me right?

Bannister - was awesome last year. Have u seen him pitch this season?

Only Lindstrom I will give u. But other then that, Omar has done more good then bad. How about Fernando Tatis? Great pick up, even though he is now done. He didnt mortgage the future at the deadline. Niese looks like a good pitcher and Murphy looks like a guy who will be with us for years.

[spadanko]

For Phillies fans.

I'm thrilled that this guy is going to be the brain trust of our chief competitor for the next four years.


if you say so... I think it is pretty stupid to think Omar is a bad GM You can't talk about his Expo days. the team was getting contracted and he had to try and win. that is why he made that deal MLB basically forced his hand. But why let facts get in the way of making your point right? remember they owned the team. He has done great things since he got here

Only guy bad he has dealt is Heath Bell and Maybe lindstrom. Bannister is fucking garbage.

[spadanko]

Oh and they didn't sign Delgado or Santana, they traded for them.

he then gave Santana an extension.

The one gripe I have with him is Luis Castillo. and he basically ahs admitetd his mistake and will try to deal him this offseason.

[skyscraper]

*exhale*

w00t!

too bad Santana won't be able to pitch every game for you for the rest of the stretch.
Go Phils!

[foodcourtdruide]

So while the team's better, it's almost entirely because the Mets will throw money at anybody. Minaya hasn't done a damn thing.

I think you're a really knowledgable baseball fan, but this is a Phillies fan rant. The Mets went to game 7 of the NLCS 2 years ago, how is that not doing a damn thing?

And your list of guys he's given up is extremely unimpressive. Kaz Matsui? Are you kidding? The difference between Kaz Matsui and Damion Easley is like.. 10 hits. Milledge may turn out to be a decent player, however while debatable, but I'd rather have Church on this team than him. Throw in Schneider and that trade was at worst a wash for the Mets.

It looks like Lindstrom and Bell have developed into good relievers, and I'd say obviously Minaya's weakness is his judgement of relievers.

I'm not the biggest Minaya supporter, I think the collapse last year and the struggles this year are primarily his fault (though firing Willie turned out to be a brilliant move), but I think you're being a bit hard on him.

The Castillo signing was one of the worst contacts this team's ever given and I think he should have been more aggressive pre-trade deadline.

[EddieMoscone]

Omar has some boners in his time, but every general manager does. The bullpen sucks cock, but most guys there has some history of sucess previously.

The fact that guys like Tatis, Evans, Murphy, Figueroa, Stokes, Easley, Chavez, etc. have made ANY sort of contribution (however minor) over the past couple of years when they really had no right to shows that sometimes Omar sees things that we don't.

Bannister wouldn't be an upgrade over Niese or Pedro right now??

Oh and they didn't sign Delgado or Santana, they traded for them.

They were salary dump trades, and in regards to Santana in particular, he was able to make that trade because nobody else would agree to extend him and give up prospects.

I wouldn't knock him for it...but I also wouldn't praise it as some brilliant move only he would have made. The Wilpons told him to spend the money to get Santana.

Milledge may turn out to be a decent player, however while debatable, but I'd rather have Church on this team than him. Throw in Schneider and that trade was at worst a wash for the Mets.

He gets nothing in those trades, unless he's outright buying players in the trade like Santana or Delgado (and even in the Delgado move, Jacobs actually turned out to be a pretty good player).

Regardless of what you thought of Bannister, or Matsui, or any of those other deals, they were commodities that he should have been able to at least get something useful back.

Furthermore, he never seems to get the better of any deals.

Look at Pat Gillick by comparison. Gillick has outright stolen players over the last three years.



They've shown an absolutely amazing stat on the Phillies broadcasts the last two nights that if Major League Baseball games were six innings long, the Mets would be 12.5 game up on the Phillies right now.

If they were eight innings long, they'd be 6.5 up on the Phillies right now.

How can anybody defend a guy who sees that happening to his team and does nothing?

The Phillies had the best bullpen in baseball and still found a guy like Scott Eyre off the scrapheap who's given the Phillies quality innings late in games in the last two months.

Omar just let it fall apart.



He's not a bad GM...but he's a vastly overrated one, in part because of the reputation he got in Montreal (which is incredibly undeserved).

He'll continue to lock the Mets into huge contracts over the next four years, and he'll do nothing if it doesn't come together as he planned.

[spadanko]

So him waiting out the Twins and having them lessen their demands on Santana is not signs of a good GM? Dude please stop. You are hating just to hate.

[K.C.]

Where did I say that?

All I said is it's easy to make that deal when your ownership allows you to take on a $125 million contract.

How many teams can say they can do that? Five?

It's about spending the money on the right players. Something Mets brass in the past has not done (see Bonilla, Mo Vaughn etc). Omar is spedning it on the right guys (except Luis Castillo). Could he have done a better job with the pen? sure.. but there aren't that many GMs out there I'd rather have

The one thing I would say is that there's probably not a lot of better GMs that will be available in the next year or two.

A guy like Gerry Hunsicker who built the good Astros teams is better, but outside of him, you're probably right.

But, still, where's the logic in extending a guy who's team could be a three or four games away fromt their second September collapse in as many years (and three in the loss column with eight to play does qualify as a collapse).

He has an extra year. At least make him work for his job.



For the record, though, I think they should bring back Jerry Manuel regardless of what happens. He's shown to be a pretty good manager. If they lose, it's not going to be because of him.

[spadanko]

I agree the timing is shitty on supposed towasn't it. But it seems like someone leaked it and it happen.

and i also agree on Manuel. Team has played hard for him. He should keep the job

[PD]

Bannister wouldn't be an upgrade over Niese or Pedro right now??.

no. have you looked at Bannister after the all star break?
at least Niese is 1 out of 3, and young.
Pedro has also been better; he's a #5 starter now who sucks the first inning, but at least he has gotten outs later. Bannister was a crap shoot trade- he was traded when they had Pelfrey, Humber, and kevin mulvey; they dealt him for a young guy who closed games. Yes, that reliever didn't work out, but it really was no loss.

Minaya isn't the best, but he isn't the worst either (he's no Steve Phillips)

By the way, who is gonna GM your team next year?

Bannister, as with most young pitchers was a crap shoot. I think overall it was a bad trade, but I wasn't crying about it when it happened so I can't cry about it now. I really have no idea what you think the Mets could have gotten for Matsui. I think of all the things you've said this is the one thing I REALLY disagree with.

I agree with you on the word "overrated", but not on "vastly". Is he one of the top 10 GM's in baseball? No. Is he one of the 10 worst GM's in baseball? No.

[TheMojoPin]

Good match up tonight.

Do the Cubs play it smart and put out a scrub team to target Perez' Achilles' heel of struggling against bad teams?

[K.C.]

By the way, who is gonna GM your team next year?

80% chance it's Ruben Amaro Jr.
19% chance it's Mike Arbuckle.
1% chance the go out of house for someone

They'll most likely promote from within.

The only guy they might consider from the outside is Hunsicker because they've interviewed him before.

Amaro's basically split the GM duties in the last year anyway. Gillick still makes his recommendations on who they should target, but Amaro was directly responsible for the Lidge trade, and picking up Eyre a month ago.

Blanton might have been Gillick's move. Not sure.

[Doogie]

Also on a side note...is it me or does the sound on SNY sound like they are broadcasting underwater at times??

[chubbyknuckles]

Seriously, how can people be Mets fans? This has got to be the worst suffering to watch fans go through, it's insane how much of an abusive relationship it is. after a 5-1 lead, it's sickening.

[Friday]

i just got home from job #2... glass of port, sitting on the couch soaking my achy feet in a vibrating bath.... and watching the mets get the tying run walked in...

Let's Go Mets.

LET'S GO METS.

LET'S GO METS!!!!

[TheMojoPin]

Hah, Howry here, against the heart of the order? Enjoy your victory, Mets. Lou's just stretching out the bullpen tonight. Marmol would have normally pitched the 8th.

[Friday]

this Murphy kid just keeps proving himself and proving himself..... what a team player.

WRIGHT, YOU HACK.

Every extra play is another chance someone gets hurt on a meaningless game.

Already pissed DeRosa had to come out.

END THIS, FOOLS.

[TheMojoPin]

Oh my God.

WIN THIS GAME, METS.

If it goes to extras, I hope Lou pulls as many starters as possible.

Oh, what the fuck! A lead off triple against Howry and they can't score? The Mets suck!

God the Mets are awesome.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

Have to protect the integrity of the game, Mojo.

Keep 'em in, Lou!

AND it might give Lou the idea to add Howry to the playoff roster.

THANKS A FUCKING LOT, METS.

[Doogie]

These guys invent new ways to lose...man on 3rd, no one out and no one can drive him in. Wow.

[IMSlacker]

Oh, Jesus Christ! I don't want to play the Dodgers in the first round!

[Doogie]

Christ almighty...I would fucking take Mel Rojas right now for the bullpen.

[Kevin]

Have i stated that the Mets are awesome?

[TheMojoPin]

Oh, Jesus Christ! I don't want to play the Dodgers in the first round!

What are you, high? BRING THEM ON. That's the best possible outcome in the first round.

Aramabomb with the Aramadong.

[KnoxHarrington]

I loved that shot in the game just now of a Mets fan very clearly mouthing the words "Fuck! Fuck!" as the Mets fell behind by 3 in the top of the 10th.

That must pretty much sum up being a Mets fan now.

[Doctor Z]

That was a tough tony.

[Friday]

Have i stated that the Mets are awesome?

go back to your off-season golfing thread.

i would love to see you act this obnoxious in person.
but no one would be able to HEAR you... so i guess it would be pointless.

Christ almighty...I would fucking take Mel Rojas right now for the bullpen.

What about James Baldwin?

I want the Mets and their atrocious bullpen.

I would like to state for the record that I have nothing against the Mets, and in fact despise the Phillies, so I'm actually gunning for the Mets bigtime.
So that kinda sucked just then.

Then maybe you should have lent them Carlos Marmol for the week.

No thanks. For all their bullpen woes, they still have a much more potent offense than the Dodgers.

Of course, I say that, now watch Manny come to Wrigley and murder the Cubs.

pUT IT IN THE BOOKS

And yes i realize i am being an ass.

But with my Yankees sucking ass, this is all i have!

well, at least my tix to last game at shea will actually be the last game at shea.....which will make 3 years in a row of being at the last 3 season games at shea:
2006: NLCS (game 7, Beltran, the $30 million statue)
2007: Last game (7 runs in first inning)
2008: Big fkn deal.

really? Because i imagined the cat screamin in agony, thinking about its mommy and life's missed opportunities, as the wieght of the snake constricting muscles crushed its throat.


But sayin wheeeeee is just as plausible.

[Friday]

OHHHHHH SNAP!

i realize that, idiot.
thus the phrasing.

i do see, however, that language and usage are not something you consider when reading. :dry:

please go away now.

[SP1!]

Geez and even the braves helped you out but they still couldnt pull it off, they better do it tomorrow cause I have a feeling if they dont win tomorrow they will be out since the cubs will rest everyone for the playoffs this weekend.

[TheMojoPin]

The weather doesn't look too promising for tomorrow night, which means this might have to be made up after the end of the regular season.

Goddammit.

[spadanko]

I don't know how much i got left. i really don't

[KingGeno]

Comin' down to the wire, eh?

Realistically, I think both teams will fail in the post. Too much inconsistency.

[Bossanova]

I will say this right now. I fucking hate the Mets! I cant do this for 4 more days

[hammersavage]

I'm gonna go to bed for the next 4 days and when I wake up, we're either in the playoffs or I can really focus on football. It's a win-win.

Unfortunately, I'll actually be at the game tonight to see this abortion limp to the finish line in person. All to say goodbye to Shea, ya big piece of shit.

[Bossanova]

I am actually considering on not going Sat. I cant watch this in person just to send off a crumbling stadium

[K.C.]

Storm tonight looks like it's moving a little further inland. If it stays on its current path, it could miss New York.

A rain out would be fantastic.

Mets have to play one after the season, and a chance for more Cubs to get hurt in a meaningless game.

Everything's coming up Phillies!

[Friday]

I am actually considering on not going Sat. I cant watch this in person just to send off a crumbling stadium

my playoff tix came yesterday.
Last year I didn't even open the envelope. This year I opened em just to see where I could have sat.

at least it is all refundable.

Sunday is setting up to be ugly.
I was hoping at least to be able to peacefully say goodbye, like the yankees did last week.

[cougarjake13]

i fucking hate this team

so many scoring opportunities, didnt capitalize


a fucking leadoff triple, no outs, fucking wright cant even hit a fucking sacfly ???


perfect opportunity with the phillie loss to get the division down to 1/2 game





i hate them, i hope they all die from a fiery plane crash that takes off from laguardia during batting practice so no fans get hurt, and the pilots are in training so theres no passengers on board and they eject before the crash




it doesnt matter cause even if they made the playoffs they werent going anywhere
they may have squeaked by snoogans dodgers if they won the division but they would just get dismantled by mojo's cubs anyway

Well here's to another 30 years or so in Queens!

If it's any consolation, the new stadium can't possibly be as bad as the toilet that is Shea. So at least when David Wright doesn't drive in a runner on 3rd with no outs, you'll have a nice view.

it really stinks to see so many empty seats... and GOOD SEATS too.
i would LOVE to be sitting in one of those nice orangey seats cheering my team in these last three games.
people who have tickets and aren't there right now SUCK. :(

What's stopping you? GO! Win or Lose, go and have a great time. There are scalpers ready to fulfill all your late-season Mets needs

[hammersavage]

um.
things stopping me.... well, there's money.

i am not a rich fuck who has premium seats but chooses not to go... i am a ham and egger who must watch her spending very carefully.

but if you want to buy me some tickets from an online scalper i will happily go! :bye:

i fucking hate this team



i gave up, they win yesterday to bring me back



now they're losing 2-0 in the 6th

[cougarjake13]

fucking marlins will bounce the mets out of the playoffs a second straight year

[cougarjake13]

meaningless stat of the day




the mets would have a 11 game lead if the games ended after 6 innings
and a 6 game lead if it ended after 8 innings


all this proves is just how bad our fucking bullpen has been

That's also assuming that the bullpen would be perfect in every situation.

I honestly don't know what to say anymore. The minute I saw 36 people in the stands, I just knew this game was lost. Its sad that I have watched the entire game, and I forgot that David Wright was on the team. What the fuck is with the offense

[MagillaGorillaz]

Maybe they could sneak Pony Boy Mike Piazza in the last inning. He's at Shea. He colud probably produce some runs than this line up.

This bullpen makes me pine for the days of the 44 year old John Franco days. I am being serious

Im watching online & its pretty amazing how few people are sticking it out to the end.
Brewers just went up 5-1!!!!

oh i know so you can throw out the 6 inning one


but the 9th inning meltdowns hurt the most

if the mets even had half of those six we'd be up 2 games going into tonights game
