Adam Eaton sounds like a Len Dykstra CF and should be a top priority for Alderson to try and acquire from Arizona. If Eaton is untouchable than get gold glover Parra. Arizona is over loaded it he OF....
If Burnett put together any kind of first half of next year he would be great trade bait if the Mets still stunk. Bay would never have much trade value because of his $$ and the position he plays. SP...
Very volatile market. Eric Gagne was the best in MLB and gone in what seemed like an instant. The best closers are mentally strong and have GUTS. I would like the Mets to give the job to IZZY if he...
I want the Front Office to get creative and maximize the assets the Met's have. Move Jason Bay for John Lackey or AJ Burnett. Go after Josh Beckett for Pelfrey, Bay and some other junk. Get SP in...
The Cardinals beat the Mets in 2006 when NY's Sp staff was decimated by injuries. What they did to the Phillies this season is way beyond that. Do I like Tony Larussa? No. Do I respect and fear...
My hope is that they target some creative trades that could really bolster the starting rotation. I am OK with Duda playing LF or RF, Pagan back in CF and bringing Reyes back at SS. 2B can be fought...
I think the Mets should target the Red Sox for trades. Pelfrey, Wright, Parnell and Bay should all be shopped to Boston and names like Lackey, Beckett, Youkilis and Papelbon should be discussed. Not...
As stated before I am a Met's fan and my nephew is the biggest Phillies fan and very sick @ CHOP. Ryan Howard hasn't personally come into my nephew's life but I have heard during my time there that...
I didn't see this coming. Thought Utley's bomb was gone in the 9th. Carpenter really came up big and threw some curveballs that looked like wiffle ball stuff. I am a Met's fan and this year's...
I did not read entire thread but all I have to say is FAH Q to the baseball world. Great job Jose. A NY Met won a batting title. We got SOMETHING good for once. Go fly a kite if you have a problem...
Then Atlanta will be a prohibitive underdog heading into the playoffs. Beltran is a difference-maker. Minor should be offered...
Prospects are not sure things & teams perched to win it all NEED to add a SW hitter, veteran, post-season tested, middle-of-the-order thumper. Sandy better take back something of value.
You need to remember that in 2006 we could have shipped Lastings Milledge somewhere for another piece that could have pushed the Mets to the WS title. It's not easy to be perched and ready to win a...
The Mets are leveraging the chance to win a WS not just a player that is headed to FA. Beltran would make the Phillies an almost LOCK to win the WS. The playoffs are a crapshoot but in that park,...
There is now a Mets identity built by Collins & Hudgens. The Mets will battle you, work counts, play hard and the pitchers (forgot Warthen) compete as well. That identity is so ingrained that the...
Alderson needs to send the message that the Mets will PAY draft picks & are content to ride out a season that rewards the fan base. Get picks for Beltran. Keep him all year. I love the way Collins...
is a GREAT move by Terry Collins. Fred Wilpon trashes the players and the manager let's his closer end a non-save game to get him closer to his big $$$ automatic extension. IMO Collins gains major...
A very important series & first game of the series. If Young comes back & is solid it is a great sign. The new lineup (with Bay) will be tested in game 1 by a guy that usually keeps the Mets in...
Some reasons to think it isn't that crazy: 1) Playoff basketball does bog down into halfcourt isolations and pick and rolls. 'Melo and STAT with Billups could be absolute nightmares in a playoff...
Jared Jeffires can guard a variety of players. You get Jared to run defense and fouls at Garnett, Bosh, Boozer and others rather than have STAT waste his energy on guarding them EVERY possesion.
The reason I hated Murphy so much at 1B was because if he became a Gold Glove his .290 15 HR would be anemic at 1B. Hard workers that played IF for most of their life deserve a shot. I support...
I think Ryota Igarashi will make this team. Igarashi was starting to figure it out last year when he got hurt. IMO he will not only make the team but also be an effective late inning reliever for the...
Nice picks for breakout seasons. IMO Angel Pagan is going to do some great things this year. He is going to get fastballs to hit in the #2 spot in the lineup, he seems "team first" and the home park...
I wish that Alderson had upgraded 2B with Orlando Hudson & just cut Castillo. I don't mind the bargain hunting for relief pitchers and upside SP but the team could use a solid veteran 2B & Hudson's...
