That's ridiculous

LOL he should be fired for expressing support for a player??

No, I don't think they are robots at all. And I think they can be negatively effected by the losing and other nonsense. That to me is not a lack of effort or lack of caring or whatever you want to...

The team has been poorly constructed for years. They are off to a bad start this year, but really the past couple years they haven't necessarily "underachieved"....the team was expected to be...

I don't think they are as bad as they've played the past few weeks, but almost all teams (especially bad ones) will go through losing streaks and bad stretches. Some guys are underperforming on the...

Where is your evidence that they aren't trying? Just because they aren't playing well doesn't mean they aren't trying to play well.

Well Cain tipped his cap when he left the game so they couldn't retaliate that day against him for the cap tip. But hitting a position player is the way it often is done these days...pitchers often...

If that's "fight"...I'm glad there isn't more of it

Managers don't make roster moves. They can have input on decisions...but this thread seems to be more aimed at Sandy if you are talking actual roster moves

Embarrassed?? Are you new to the Mets fan thing?

They've lost 5 in a row...stuff happens.

Eeek...hopefully this is nothing major

Well managers don't often willingly test the FA waters. For one, there isn't always a guarantee that there even will be another managerial opening in the offseason. And if there is...there isn't a...

The reason they've mostly won when the starters have gone 6 is because those have been good starts (mostly by Harvey and Niese). Those pitchers got to go 6+ mostly because they were pitching well. ...

Wait, were there really serious complaints about Wright not sac bunting in the 6th inning? Wright should pretty much never sac bunt. Sac bunting when not done by a pitcher is a bad move more often...

No he doesn't. And "exciting the fans" is a dumb reason to promote a player

I don't see people buying tickets just b/c Wright was named captain. He's not even wearing the corny C....which some might have argued if he wore was strictly to sell more shirts (though I think MLB...

I don't get why its that big of a deal either. It's more of a honorary thing...but I guess nice for Wright to have people think of him as a captain.

I think the delay was b/c Wright wanted to...

Update (that's not really much of an update) on the injury front:

Jorge Castillo ‏@jorgeccastillo
David Wright didn’t have much of an injury update. Said he’s feeling less discomfort but needs...

I don't think reporting even earlier is a good thing. That probably is just messing with players schedules even more

Besides, when it comes to the USA team, it seems like many people get upset...

Most players don't treat it like an exhibition. Did you see the DR team last night? You'd think htey just won the world series

The worst?? No way. They aren't great, but were significantly better than teams like the Mariners, Marlins, Astros, and Cubs last year. And there is some reason to think the Mets (particularly...

You probably still aren't getting much back for him even if the Mets pay his salary. He finished last year dreadfully and contending teams probably would be concerned about that plus the potential...

I think he might have known that he wouldn't be allowed to pitch in the WBC, but didn't want to look like the bad guy to his country and outright decline. So he made it known he wanted to pitch, so...

Last years ST was worse than this.

And really only Kirk and Murph were the only actual injuries. And it seems like Murph will be fine to start the year.

Some of the things like Felicano (and...

He's a pretty dreadful SS though...he probably should have been the one to switch positions, not A-Rod. But yeah most SS suck offensively so he's way above average for a SS. I was just making the...
