    They will give Wright a contract in Mets Money.

    Jonathan Husky is a concerned Mets fan.

    Is Mr. Met holding up his middle finger on the front and back?

    As opposed to what? Whether the outfield wall should be returned to its original height and length?

    The quality of the Queens school district?

    What?

    Those Queens public schools do amazing things.

    Queens public schools helped my first generation immigrant parents go from having next to nothing to churning out an oncologist and the chief compliance officer of a very large international hedge fund.

    And we're just a drop in the ocean of success stories from Queens public schools.

    David Wright should consider sending his future kids to one.

    As opposed to years, no trade clauses, and incentives.

    Less talky more signy Spindy.

    Time you started earning your corn, because on my ledger you've got Wheeler and nothing else on the credit side.




    And "ultimately," Alderson said, "we're judged on whether we win or lose."

    Sandy visited David and gave him the official Mets Monopoly boardgame along with the movie "Moneyball" as nice parting gifts for nine years of service. If he made it ten years he would have gotten a watch but knowing the Mets it'd be an Armitron.
    Comin at ya homie!

    It could be, but 'top' isn't a term that sits well with his resume here, 'bottom' maybe...

    He's a such a creep. He reminds me of one of the bad guys in Robocop, I think his name was Clarence Boddicker.
