the mets have a team batting average of .208, that’s unacceptable, and they need a back end starter, and another bullpen arm

Is it just me, or does it seem like the Mets can’t have anything nice without totally destroying it?
RunDMC
That’s the NY way. Trust me.

Mets*

This off season, Nationals, who won the division, did what they had to do to improve their team for championship contention. The Mets, on the other hand, who finished a distant second, spent the minimum to fill out the roster to look a little like a team (in a best case scenario) that could compete, playing to the Wilpons low end goal of “playing meaningful games in September”. Not a single element of the team was upgraded. No team that really wants to contend goes into a season with what the Mets did at 3B or C. The window with these young pitchers (even if they stay healthy) is closing as the Wilpons’ gloat over pennies saved. Every Met fan that’s followed the team since the Wilpons ascended to control (1991) know what’s coming in the next cycle.

Is this because they’re skinflints or because they are still hurting from the Madoff debacle?

Madoff was another Wilpon excuse not to spend. At one point during the trial it looked like the Wilpon/Katz group might owe something substantial due to the collusion element, but the net amount they’ll end up paying (due to later offsets due to being net losers in 2 other funds and greater than expected collections on both ends) will be about 60 mm total. 16 mm was paid last year (2016), and 45 mm is due in 4 installments over the next 4 years (about 11 mm a year). This isn’t even Neil Walker money, and certainly not an excuse for a NY team to spend like a middle market team and prior to last year a small market team.

That’s not fair. Mets did upgrade their 3rd base and catching coach 🙂

Well, this seasons lost already after they did nothing in the offseason.

Time to bring Bobby Bonilla back and slot him at 3B. Make him earn the paycheck the Mets are still giving him.
bastros88
he’s getting paid 1.19 million every July, so why not

While we’re at it, I wonder if Vince Coleman can still play CF.

Aren’t we at the time that people should stop calling them one of the the best starting rotations in baseball and start realizing that they have health issues, whether it’s because they have been coddled too long, are much too cautious with their discomforts or perhaps the pitchers themselves are too fragile?
Or maybe they just aren’t healthy and strong enough or have been misused/overused/rushed to be able to handle a full load as starters in this league?

Or that throwing a ball 100 miles an hour is hard on an arm. Period.

And now Cespedes goes down. Ouch.

Nat’s reportedly will sign Bernie Madoff to a minor league contract as the Nat’s will use him to be their closer only when there’s a save opportunity when they play againest the MET’s!!!

Having a “Tired Arm” a month into the season is always a great sign…
