You're so litigious.

World Series Rooting Interest Poll: Rockies vs. Red Sox
Centerfield replied to Valadius's topic in New York Mets Talk
Red Sox. They are my American League mistress. -
There's alway Lee Mazzili. You'd have to assume Lee would forgive them for firing him and all that.

We need to set some protocol here so we can avoid awkward moments like this where men jump in joy with each other. From now on, pitcher jumps, catcher catches him. That's the way it's going to be. If you've got a fat pitcher and a catcher with a bad back, make sure they're not your battery when the last out is recorded.

Back center is Renteria. Back right is Ordonez. No idea who is on the left.

You find some interesting photos while searching for pictures of Mets wearing Roos. Like this one from Sports Illustrated in 1997.

Iubitul circa 1987: "I have to make sure the shoes can be seen clearly in these photos. In about 20 years, the Mets will suffer a monumental collapse in the season's final two weeks, and the forum at which I post on the internet (which will be invented soon) will need diversions to take their minds off of the post-season taking place without their team. One such diversion will be separating Mets by their brand of shoe."

Correct you are Sir, as demonstrated by Rick Aguilera and the crystal clear photography of Iubitul.

Whatever they are, McReynolds has them too.

Can we have a ruling on this Whitham? Looks like Roos to me.

With his funky delivery, nearly every picture of Chad Bradford is interesting. Each time he throws, he demonstrates that his arm bends in a way arms are not supposed to bend.

Exactly one month ago today, the Colorado Rockies were 76-72, 6.5 games behind the Diamondbacks. The New York Mets were 83-64. 4.5 games ahead of Philadelphia.

I thought the Phils overachieved. The Cubs at least made the playoffs, but got beat in a short series. It happens. But to get beaten out over the course of 162 to these two clubs...I'm starting to work myself up again.
-
I can't believe that these are the two NLCS teams. The Mets, Braves, Dodgers and Padres should be ashamed.

Suspensions are without pay right? I hope it's for two years.

Damnit. I hear now that he's out of work, he'll go into selling Juan Signs.

What's on 2nd? ... I don't know (3rd base)
Centerfield replied to Frayed Knot's topic in New York Mets Talk
How about picking up that clutch-hitting second baseman for the Rockies? I hear he's a free agent... -
I think the Mets will re-sign Castillo to play 2nd. I think they might make a run at Posada but he will ultimately return to the MFY's. That means the only place in our lineup where we can really make a significant improvement over 2007 is right field. Right field is where sluggers play. Right fielders hit 4th or 5th in the lineup. A right fielder of that caliber makes this lineup dangerous again. The problem is there are no Vlad Guerrero's out there in the free agent market. So Omar is going to have to get creative. I really think this off-season represents his biggest challenge so far...and right field will go a long way in determining how successful he is. Good Omar: Landing a power hitter in RF means Alou and Delgado can slide down to 6 and 7 respectively. Bad Omar: Carlos Gomez is in RF on Opening Day.

The bigger news is that Jon Schuerlholz looks to be stepping down. So says Ken Rosenthal: http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/7322496

As Vic will tell you, good faith promises to talk are not worth a heck of a lot.

Let's assume that last year was a fluke and that Posada goes back to career norms. That would give us: BA: .277 OBP: .381 SLG: .479 OPS: .860 HR (average since 2000): 24 RBI (average since 2000): 89 Could you live with that for three years, $45 million? I think so. But only at the catcher position. Those numbers aren't worth that at first base. Now, if you consider that you are getting him at age 36-39, it is reasonable to assume his production might not even be that high...especially in years 2 and 3. And considering Pudge Rodriguez and his .714 OPS (250 points lower than Posada's) had his option picked up at $14 million, how likely is a deal for 3 years, $45 million? If he's asking for 4 years, I think you have to pass. Catchers' productivity generally doesn't fade away. You wake up one day and it's gone.
