You have to wonder about Jerry's bullpen acumen, using the same clowns over and over and over again. Or maybe you have to wonder if Omar is on ******* holiday. Maybe you can excuse his hands being tied by their own rubbish farm system in executing a trade for a decent bat or two to take some of the heat off of Wright and Beltran but this slow to the take sort of movement on hitters and pitchers is starting to make the Mets bleed more and more games. The bullpen sucks, they need help. How much more bloody obvious does it have to be?For about five minutes yesterday, the Mets could be happy. The rest of the time, a miserable foreshadowing to what remains a miserable season.Stokes came in for only an inning and then, after Scheider's happily unexpected three-run homer gave the Mets a slim one run lead, Jerry calls on Bobby Parnell to hold the lead in the 7th. Bobby Parnell has been crap lately, can't get any body out. So why is he out there trying to hold a one run lea...

Mets Adopt the Junkyard Dog’s Theme Song as their Own

Via Rising Apple  |  June 23, 2009
The Mets beat St. Louis 6-4 last night, but enough of that happy talk. This is the Mets so of course we have much more ominous news to unravel as another star bit the dust in Flushing.

Exploring The Lack of Trade Options For The Mets

Via Dom D's Mets Fan Blog  |  June 21, 2009
With Carlos Beltran headed for an MRI tomorrow and still no sign of Jose Reyes, Carlos Delgado and Oliver Perez I think now is an appropriate time to discuss trading for someone who could provide some steady offense, especially if Beltran hits the DL. The problem for the Mets is they have very few trade chips to work with. Their top organizational prospect, Fernando Martinez was...

Mr Softie? I Think Not

Via NY Baseball Digest  |  June 22, 2009
During the early part of my radio show’s existence the recurring debate about the Mets was the toughness of the ball club. Inevitably Carlos Beltran would come up and many fans would cite him as the poster boy for the team’s soft persona. How do those same fans feel today after it was revealed that [...]

Alyssa Milano: Hypocrite, Traitor

Via Bugs & Cranks  |  June 23, 2009
Alyssa Milano is one of baseball’s greatest ambassadors.  Which makes her offensive recent blog post about her All-Star ballot all the more disappointing. Ms. Milano is baseball’s unofficial hottest female fan/business partner (she’s a Dodgers season ticket holder and has a line of MLB women’s clothing). She occasionally chimes in with her opinions on an...
