Delgado Update, Pena getting ready...

Carlos Delgado would have returned to the line-up today, if the game had not been rained out, a trip to the DL wouldn't help his condition. Delgado will simply have to play through the pain, until he can't bear it anymore and while nobody has said it, that more then likely...

Give Howard Johnson The Boot

As we all know the Mets cannot do anything right this year.  One of their biggest weaknesses has been hitting home runs.  Playing in Citi Field does not make it any easier. With under 40 games left in this dreadful year, the Mets have just passed Barry Bonds on the home run list...

End of the Garcia era...

I had such high hopes for Freddy Garcia, he had won a championship and was such a workhorse throughout his career, until his injuries in 2006. Even if he couldn't get back to where he was with the White Sox, I figured he would be better then most of our fifth starters we've...
